Law firm Stephenson Harwood LLP has advised a longstanding private client on its acquisition of a 58 metre Tankoa motor yacht.
Founded in 2007, Tankoa Yachts S.p.A., is an Italian builder of steel and aluminium luxury megayachts, which range from 45 metres in length up to 100 metres. It operates from a shipyard in the port of Genoa.
“This was another significant, strategic transaction for our long-standing client,” said Neil Noble, co-head of the Stephenson Harwood superyacht team. “In the past six months, we’ve seen an increase in this type of work, and our team has recently been involved in two other projects involving Tankoa Yachts, a key player in this market.”
The Stephenson Harwood team – which worked alongside Giancarlo Mussino of Sinos, an independent Switzerland-based firm, on the deal – comprised partner Neil Noble and senior associate Ezio Dal Maso.
