Cannes Film Festival Event Logo

The logo features a simple, memorable, and unique wordmark with an incorporated brandmark that can be used separately. The wordmark is composed horizontally and stacked, allowing for versatile application. The standout feature of the logo is the letter "O" in "soleil," which is pushed down to symbolize a sunset and is rendered in a luxurious gold color. This design element not only evokes the essence of the brand name but also creates a visual connection with the setting sun, tying into the theme of the Cannes Film Festival and the exclusive experiences offered during the event. In the stacked composition, the sunset "O" from "soleil" is positioned directly beneath the normal "O" in "coucher," giving the impression that the sun is setting within the letter, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to the overall logo design.

Yacht Logo The Yacht owner wanted a wordmark that was modern and minimalist. The approach was to create a clean wordmark with a simple twist and play in the letters. Get in touch to see how we can give your brand a visual uplift. https://99designs.ca/profiles/terrybogard/services/92

Logo for Yacht Company

AVAILABLE WITH CUSTOMIZATION My concept is a modern and clean negative space logo mark inspired by the yacht beating the waves. Elegant, sharp and curved lines develop feelings of excitement, enthusiasm and adventure. The orange color communicates adventure and risk-taking. By combining physical energy and stimulation of red with the cheerfulness of yellow, it inspires confidence, competition and independence. I paired the logo mark with clean and sharp typography to match the overall style. The softness and of the secondary typography and the circles of the yacht windows makes contrast to the sharp shapes and that makes them stand out.

The word "holdings" in the logo is not 100% necessary either, would be open to having a logo without it .

Frequently asked questions about yacht logos

Creating the perfect logo for yacht with freelogodesign is easy, but just in case, here are some answers to questions you may have.

Whether you are an expert or not, here are some steps to follow that will help you create a yacht logo. First, analyze your business and products. What are your strengths, weaknesses, and values? Never forget that you are creating a yacht logo for your business, not for a competitor. Then, think about your brand image by choosing a logotype, color palette, and font that represent your business well.

Finding the perfect icon when creating a yacht logo is essential, especially if you decide to make a combination mark or emblem logo. There are thousands of available icons on FreeLogoDesign to help you. When creating your yacht logo with our logo maker, click on the Add an icon button to begin searching. Try different icons until you find the one that meets your needs.

Yes! As the name suggests, you can create a free yacht logo with FreeLogoDesign’s logo maker. You will have access to all the logo templates (we have more than 2000!) and features to create your logo. Your free yacht logo will be in a PNG format, 200 x 200 px. If you need high resolution or vector files, please note that you can also purchase one of our premium plans or add-ons: business card templates, brand guide, email signature, invoices.

What should be the main color of your new logo? Choosing the right colors for your yacht logo can be challenging. Your brand image components of a logo are significant as they could impact the first impression someone has of your business. Selecting the right colors can make a huge difference in how people perceive your brand since every color has a specific meaning. People only need a few milliseconds to have an opinion on your business when they look at your yacht logo. You must then ensure that your logo stands out from the competition while remaining representative of your field and values. If you want to know more and make an informed choice, take a look at FreeLogoDesign’s page on the meaning of the colors.

What makes a good Yacht logo?

Not all Yacht logos are created equal. Choosing the right logo type for your business is one of the keys to creating a great Yacht logo. There's an array of logo types and what you choose depends on the emotions and message you want your logo to evoke. Logos with just text or simple letters can convey professionalism or luxury, whereas a Yacht logo with just an icon can be more jovial and exciting - maybe your logo should have both? This is a critical decision in the logo design process.

Ever considered why some companies use specific colors in the Yacht logo? Or why some businesses have certain colors in their branding? Color theory and psychology is the science of eliciting emotions and feelings via the use of color. Knowing what colors trigger different reactions from consumers can help a company create the perfect Yacht logo for their business. It definitely pays to choose the right colors for your Yacht logo. Want to be seen as a dependable, trustworthy brand or maybe you want to be sporty and active. Choosing the right colors for your logo is the key to getting the message right.

Shapes & Patterns

Just like colors, shapes can influence a person's emotions. The psychology of shapes has a key role in creating a great Yacht logo. We're not just talking about squares, circles and triangles here, but the geometric patterns that make up your Yacht logo. Sharp corners and straight lines are aligned with discipline and strength, whereas softer curves, ovals and ellipses can convey a sense of eternity, mystery or magic. There's more shapes to consider as part of your logo - natural shapes like leaves, complex shapes like spirals or even abstract patterns. Getting the balance right will help you get the perfect Yacht logo for your brand.

Five bodies found inside superyacht that sank off Sicily

PORTICELLO, Sicily — Divers recovered four bodies Wednesday from inside a superyacht that sank in a sudden storm off Sicily , Salvatore Cocina, director of the island's Civil Protection Agency, confirmed to NBC News.

Cocina later confirmed to Sky News that a fifth body had been found and was being brought to shore. One passenger remains missing.

The identities of the bodies were not immediately released. Their recovery follows a dayslong search in the deep waters off Italy where British tech tycoon Mike Lynch  and several others were believed to be trapped in the hull. Fifteen of the 22 people aboard survived.

The rest had been missing since early Monday, when the Bayesian was caught in the storm anchored off the coast of Porticello, a village near the Sicilian capital city, Palermo.

The body of the ship’s cook, identified as Recaldo Thomas, a Canadian Antiguan national, was recovered Monday. 

On Wednesday, NBC News witnessed what appeared to be at least three body bags being lifted from fire department boats after they pulled into port at Porticello. It was unclear whose bodies they were. Some were later transferred to ambulances and driven away from the dock.

Lynch’s 18-year-old daughter, Hannah; Morgan Stanley International Chairman Jonathan Bloomer and his wife, Judy; and Clifford Chance lawyer Chris Morvillo and his wife, Neda, are also missing. 

The Bayesian is owned by a firm linked to Lynch’s wife, Angela Bacares, who was among the survivors rescued by a nearby vessel after they got into a lifeboat.

Built by the Italian shipbuilder Perini Navi in 2008, the U.K.-registered yacht could carry 12 guests and a crew of up to 10, according to online specialist boating sites. Its nearly 250-foot mast is the tallest aluminum sailing mast in the world, according to CharterWorld Luxury Yacht Charters.  

Regularly described in U.K. media as “Britain’s Bill Gates,” Lynch was  acquitted of fraud by a San Francisco jury this year, stemming from the sale of his software company Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard for $11 billion in 2011.

The Mediterranean sailing vacation was designed to be a celebration for Lynch, who brought Bloomer, who testified in his defense, and Morvillo, one of his U.S. lawyers, on the trip.

Lynch's co-defendant Stephen Chamberlain was not aboard the Bayesian, but in what appears to be a tragic coincidence, a  car struck and killed  him Saturday as he was jogging in a village about 68 miles north of London, local police said.

Claudio Lavanga and Claudia Rizzo reported from Porticello. Henry Austin reported from London.

The superyacht tragedy will likely spark legal drama

• A deadly superyacht sinking off the coast of Italy during a storm will likely spark legal drama, experts said.
• Maritime legal experts say lawsuits are likely, but negligence would need to be established.
• "I would not be optimistic about the chances for any claims," one expert said.

The operator of the superyacht that sank during a violent storm off the coast of Italy this week is likely to face legal troubles over the tragedy that left UK billionaire tech tycoon Mike Lynch and others dead, according to maritime law experts.

But the success of any potential lawsuit is up for debate.

Three maritime legal experts told Business Insider that the operator and owner behind the now-sunken luxury sailing yacht called the Bayesian should lawyer up in anticipation of possible claims from families of the dead or the survivors themselves.

"There's always the possibility of claims when there's a casualty," said Martin Davies, the director of the Maritime Law Center at Tulane University School of Law in Louisiana. But based on what is currently known about the incident, Davies said it is "unlikely that any claims would succeed."

Michael Sturley, an expert in maritime law and professor at the University of Texas at Austin's School of Law, agreed. "Based on what we know now, I would not be optimistic about the chances for any claims," he said.

However, Sturley noted, "There is still a lot that we don't know."

Bad weather does not automatically absolve a party of liability, but it would be challenging to make a wrongful death or personal injury claim as negligence would need to be established, according to the experts.

"Under English law, they'd have to prove fault and I don't think there's much prospect of anyone proving fault," said Davies.

"Bad weather at sea is not at all unexpected, which is why you can't just simply say bad weather and hope to get off the hook," Davies said. "What seems different about this case is that it came suddenly."

Still, said Oregon-based maritime lawyer Gordon Carey, "It doesn't spell defeat" for a potential legal claim "just because it's a weather event."

The yacht was carrying 22, including UK tech tycoon Mike Lynch and a Morgan Stanley exec

The British-registered 184-foot yacht was anchored about a half-mile off the Italian port of Porticello near Palermo, Sicily, and carrying 22 people when a fierce storm hit and quickly sank the vessel just after 4 a.m. on Monday, according to reports.

The body of the yacht's chef, Recaldo Thomas, was found on Monday. Six other passengers — Lynch; his 18-year-old daughter Hannah; Lynch's friend and Morgan Stanley International chairman Jonathan Bloomer; Bloomer's wife, Judy; Lynch's attorney Christopher Morvillo and Morvillo's wife Neda — went missing during the disaster.

Divers on Wednesday found the bodies of Lynch and four of the missing inside the sunken yacht that was around 164 feet below the surface. Sky News reported that Lynch's 18-year-old daughter, Hannah, was unaccounted for.

Lynch's wife, Angela Bacares , was among the 15 people who were rescued in the aftermath of the tragedy. Reports said Lynch had been on the boat celebrating his recent acquittal on fraud charges in the US.

According to the Associated Press , documents show Bacares as the sole owner of Revtom Ltd., the Isle of Man-registered company that the online international maritime database Equasis lists as the owner of the Bayesian.

The Bayesian was being managed by the global yachting company Camper & Nicholsons. In a statement posted to its website, the company said it can "confirm that the vessel encountered severe weather conditions and subsequently sank near Palermo, Italy."

There were a total of 10 crew members and 12 guests on board, it said.

"Our priority is assisting with the ongoing search and providing all necessary support to the rescued passengers and crew," the company said.

It was not immediately clear who the captain and crew of the vessel were employed by. Camper & Nicholsons declined to comment beyond the statement posted online.

The maritime legal experts BI spoke to said that the operator of the Bayesian could potentially face liability claims, depending on the circumstances, if it hired the captain and crew and managed the vessel.

Davies said a boat like the Bayesian is bound to have "all kinds of insurance."

"And so someone may make a claim in the hope of getting some money from the insurance," he said.

English law would likely apply if any claims were made

According to Davies, it is more likely that English law would apply should the family of any of the victims or a survivor try to take legal action since the yacht was a UK-flagged vessel. US law could be applied if jurisdiction could be established, said Davies and others.

Under US law, crew members, not passengers, could potentially make an "unseaworthiness" claim, according to the maritime experts.

"The advantage of unseaworthiness is it's a strict liability claim," said Sturley. "You don't have to prove negligence. For other losses, you'd have to prove negligence."

To make an unseaworthiness claim, Davies explained, "you'd have to argue that there's something about the vessel that makes it unfit to withstand a sudden storm like this."

However, he said, "I find it hard to see there was any unseaworthiness of the vessel here."

Also under US law, the families of the dead could potentially make a legal claim under the Death on the High Seas Act, the experts said.

"People are supposed to take precautions against weather, but you take precautions that are reasonable under the circumstances, and sometimes you have a freak weather event that nobody could see coming, and it would not have been reasonable to have guarded against that," Sturley said.

He added, "Nobody prepares for hurricanes in the Sahara Desert. And if a hurricane happens to hit the Sahara Desert, that doesn't mean that people who didn't guard against it were negligent."

The AP reported that Italian civil protection officials believe that a tornado-like waterspout hit where the yacht was anchored, likely causing it to capsize.

"If it was a water spout, which it appears to be, it's what I would class as like a 'black swan' event," Matthew Schanck, chair of the UK-based Maritime Search and Rescue Council told the AP.

Many yacht owners spend much of their time in workaday lives only to escape to weekends and vacations on the boat. And no wonder they do: The time aboard can let a yachtsman get out of a rut and exercise control over his fate. The pilothouse offers a transformation, à la Superman’s telephone booth-well, maybe not quite to that extreme, but you get the meaning: It certainly is empowering to take in that view from the helm as you leave the dock without a look back.

The yacht Man of Steel has some superhero attributes in its own right. The custom-designed and built 164-foot trideck motoryacht, the recent and largest-yet delivery from Holland’s Heesen Yachts , is strong and protective of those aboard, yet has a soft spot for children.

Of course, the DC Comics hero Superman is the original “man of steel,” and subject of countless live action and animated film and television adaptations-an homage to him exists aboard the yacht in the form of a large mural, as well as a stylized logo on the transom that is reminiscent of the superhero’s symbol. The yacht’s name, however, refers to the North American owner Barry Zekelman’s steel business, and the logo bears not an “S” but a “Z” within the boundary of the familiar shield.

Man of Steel rides on a displacement hull constructed of-what else?-steel. She shares a family resemblance to Heesen’s smaller, series-built yachts, owing to their common origination from Omega Design, but her reverse pilothouse windshield and other details distinguish her profile from these earlier designs.

Her owner, moving up to this new Man of Steel from a 120-foot Heesen 3700 of the same name, was obviously happy with the team’s work, continuing with them for the new yacht, and bringing in Ausberg Design for the interior. In a joint statement following completion of the yacht, owner and designer reported, “For the good of the project, the lines between owner and designer were blurred, egos were non-existent, and eras and cultures were investigated. It was our goal from the beginning to have a great time together while creating this dream project. From the inception of this yacht, family fun was always at the forefront for this ‘home away from home.'”

The team’s success is evident in Man of Steel’s familyfriendly arrangement and her playful décor. The lower guest accommodations are devoted to the young family’s children, with each of the three staterooms having a layout and character specific to that child’s interests. The fourth stateroom is fitted as a dedicated television and playroom, so the children have a self-contained world of their own to enjoy when more formal adult activities occupy the main and upper decks. It is here that “the man of steel” rescues overwhelmed parents and watches over the children, as they relax on wide Art Deco lounges in shades of mango, raspberry, and lime, or avail themselves of the two computer-game stations located along the centerline bulkhead.

With the children occupying the lower deck, guests are accommodated in style in a spacious VIP suite forward on the main deck. The full-beam stateroom has a queen berth, cabinetry, and private head to starboard, as well as an exercise room where the owner’s office is normally located. To port is a seating area that overlooks the sea through three large windows. If the windows don’t provide enough of a view, a large hullside panel can be folded out to create a balcony with unobstructed views to the horizon.

At the center of the main deck are a guest foyer and the open central circular staircase, appropriately constructed of free-standing steel, that spans all three interior decks. A stunning display lies underfoot here and in the passageway to the VIP stateroom. Thousands of individually selected black river stones are mounted under clear structural glass and backlit in blue. The otherworldly motif continues into the day-head where it adorns both the deck and bulkhead. Glass is also used to advantage in the lower foyer, where a giant, stylized oyster shell, rendered in shades of blue, white, black, and clear glass, adorns the bulkhead facing the stairs.

Abaft the main-deck foyer are the dining room and salon. There’s also a large bar area that, via large movable glass panels, can be opened to the aft deck. The dining area, open to the salon but defined by low cabinetry, has a large square table that can host up to 12 in comfort. The salon features an assortment of sofas, chaises, and ottomans for the utmost in seating flexibility, and the bar seats an additional six guests.

The spacious VIP stateroom, forward on the main deck, could easily serve as the master suite, but that’s located up one more deck, abaft the pilothouse. It’s a magnificent space in both concept and execution, with a kingsize berth on a rotating platform at the center of a circular stateroom. When facing forward, the berth’s view is oriented to a widescreen video center. Rotated 180 degrees, the berth faces an aft deck with a waterfall whirlpool spa, sunpad, settee, and bar, as well as a view of the sea beyond. A folding hatch at the stairway from the main deck assures privacy when desired-the owners’ “Fortress of Solitude”-or can be opened to welcome guests to this area.

A second lounge area forward of the pilothouse, with a large settee, two tables, and a folding clamshell awning for shade, guarantees that the guests will not suffer when the owners’ area is off-limits. All navigation is done from the pilothouse on the upper deck-wing pods enable docking and close-quarter maneuvering-so the entire top deck is also devoted to family and guest relaxation. Under the shade of a large hardtop with an opening panel, the top deck carries a bar for six forward, a day-head to port, a dinette with seating for up to 12 to starboard, and aft, another whirlpool spa, this one twice the size of the owner’s spa on the deck below. Tenders are carried forward and aft, a RIB and two personal watercraft are on the foredeck, with davit launching, and a diesel tender and two more personal watercraft are on launching tracks in the stern garage.

One feature of Man of Steel that is not readily apparent, but vitally important, is her gross tonnage. Most yachts of her length-the 50-meter class-are designed to admeasure just under 500 gross tons. This is done to avoid the more onerous regulations that come with increased tonnage. But Man of Steel comes in at 637 gross register tons. This was a deliberate move on Heesen’s part, as they hope to use this design as the basis for a new 5000 series of semi-custom yachts. By complying with the regulations for the higher tonnage, they can offer yachts that, like Man of Steel , carry a lot more interior volume than other yachts of similar length. Additionally, should Man of Steel’s current or future owners want to lengthen her, not an unusual eventuality, they won’t have to face the complications that would come with transitioning from under 500 to over 500 tons, nor would Heesen face those same complications if someone wants a sistership that’s just a bit longer or larger.

What a super idea: Special requests are no problem. But you understand that from your powerful perch at the helm, where you don’t need to wear a cape to make decisions on the fly!

Divers search Sicily yacht wreck with UK tech boss among the six missing

British tycoon Mike Lynch was among the 22 onboard, celebrating his recent acquittal on fraud charges in the US.

Divers and an underwater drone are searching for six people, including a tech tycoon from the United Kingdom and an international banker, believed trapped when a luxury superyacht sank off Sicily.

Among the six missing were tech entrepreneur Mike Lynch and his 18-year-old daughter Hannah, and Jonathan Bloomer, the chair of Morgan Stanley International, and his wife Judy.

How did the superyacht carrying tech tycoon mike lynch sink off sicily, one dead, six missing after luxury superyacht capsizes off sicily coast, ‘the sea has taken everything’: how rising salt is destroying italian coast, ten years of maritime resistance in the mediterranean sea.

Police divers on Tuesday resumed the search for the six people believed trapped in the hull of the British-flagged 56-metre (185 feet) yacht, named Bayesian.

The yacht was anchored with 10 crew and 12 passengers on board when it was struck by a waterspout mini-tornado, before dawn on Monday.

Fifteen people, including a woman and her one-year-old baby, were rescued. The body of one man – reported to be the yacht’s Antiguan-born chef – was found.

The passengers were guests of Lynch – sometimes referred to as Britain’s Bill Gates – to celebrate his acquittal in a massive fraud case in the United States.

Lynch, was cleared in June of fraud and conspiracy charges in a US federal trial related to Hewlett Packard’s $11bn takeover of his company, Autonomy Corp.

The resting place of the sailboat is some 50 metres (164 feet) underwater – a depth that required special precautions that complicated the work. Recovery crews said they were working in 12-minute shifts, a measure that slowed down their efforts to reach the cramped inside of the wreck.

The yacht was moored about a kilometre (a half-mile) offshore when a storm rolled in before 4am on Monday. Civil protection officials said they believed the ship was struck by a tornado over the water, known as a waterspout, and sank quickly.

Grainy film from closed-circuit cameras from shore, broadcast on the website of the Giornale di Sicilia, showed the illuminated 75-metre (246-foot) mast of the Bayesian weathering the storm and then disappearing over the course of a minute.

The yacht’s captain survived, whom prosecutors reportedly sought to interview.

Karsten Borner, captain of the Sir Robert Baden Powell, which rescued the 15 survivors who managed to get into a lifeboat, said he was close enough to be able to see the Bayesian as the storm came in.

“A moment later, she was gone,” Borner said. “They said they went flat on the water and were sunk in two minutes,” he added, quoting the survivors.

The rotating search teams, each made up of two specialised cave divers, worked on Tuesday to open up access points to get inside the wreck, which lies at a depth far beyond what most recreational divers are certified to reach. They were using a remote-controlled underwater vehicle, or ROV, to help in the search.

The divers have not yet been able to access the below-deck cabins because they were blocked by furniture that had shifted during the violent storm.

Rescue crews said they assume the missing six are in those cabins because the storm struck when most would be sleeping, but the teams have not verified their presence there through portholes.

Charlotte Golunski, who survived the disaster, said she momentarily lost hold of her one-year-old daughter Sofia in the water, but then managed to hold her up over the waves until a lifeboat inflated and they were both pulled to safety, Italian news agency ANSA reported.

The father, identified by ANSA as James Emslie, also survived, as did Lynch’s wife, Angela Bacares. Hannah Lynch, reportedly the couple’s 18-year-old daughter, is among the missing.

The yacht, built in 2008 by the Italian firm Perini Navi, had been available for charter and was notable for its massive 75-metre-tall (246-foot-tall) aluminium mast, one of the tallest in the world.
