The list of SEA Index® certified superyachts continues to expand with the addition of the 35mM/Y Infinity Nine built by AvA Yachts in 2022 and owned by Yacht Club de Monaco member Tony Parker
The former NBA champion received the certificate from Yacht Club de Monaco (YCM) President HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco at an official ceremony. Since its launch in 2020 by YCM and Credit Suisse (a UBS brand), this system for assessing the environmental impact of superyachts has certified 55 yachts, reinforcing its role as a reference for sustainable yachting.
M/Y Infinity Nine earns 3-Star SEA Index® rating
With a gross tonnage of 333 GT, M/Y Infinity Nine which flies the YCM flag is the second vessel in AvA Yachts’ Kando 110 series. Designed as a compact explorer, it has transoceanic capabilities with a range of over 6,500 nautical miles before refuelling, a record for its category. It is thanks to cutting edge technologies and its energy efficiency that the yacht earned the 3-Star SEA Index® certification, confirming the team’s commitment to reduce yachting’s impact on the environment.
‘’From the design stage, we had a clear and determined desire to build M/Y Infinity Nine, a yacht that could combine innovation and performance with an environmental approach. This project demonstrates that excellence is not limited to pure performance, but also includes responsibility towards our planet. It’s having this sustainable vision from the outset that makes all the difference,” said Tony Parker
