With a tiered wedding cake-style structure, passengers are spread across five decks. There are six guest cabins, which provide accommodation for up to 12 passengers. While 25 crew are accommodated across 13 cabins. As sustainable superyachts become increasingly popular, Haven is set to be powered by green methanol. The net-zero yacht sports a natural theme, with wooden slats and hints of blue. "For the interior, I was inspired by a futuristic and alternative approach, challenging the norms of yacht design, similar to that of Tecomar's This Is It catamaran", said Felix Chapman-Sheath, of CS Yacht Design, who conceptualised the vessel.

The master bedroom features an off-centred bed with epic views of the sea. There is a separate sofa area, desk, as well as a large walk-in wardrobe and dressing area. In terms of speed, Haven will reach a maximum of 18 knots and will cruise comfortably at 12 knots. This is roughly at the lower end of the scale for average superyacht speeds. 8 The design comes from Dutch shipyard CS Yacht Design Credit: CS Yacht Design 8 There are six guest cabins, which provide accommodation for up to 12 passengers Credit: CS Yacht Design 8 The yacht aims to be net-zero Credit: CS Yacht Design

Aussie star who toured with Michael Jackson looks completely unrecognisable in new photos as she embarks on tour
She's the Aussie guitar goddess who once rocked the stage with Prince and Michael Jackson. But Orianthi looked worlds away from her edgy rocker roots in stunning new photos. The Adelaide-born musician, who turned 40 in January, left fans stunned after sharing some glamorous new photos to social media. In one picture, the According To You star exuded style and sophistication as she posed with an electric guitar. Wearing a plunging white blazer dress and thigh-high boots, Orianthi oozed confidence as she struck a sultry pose against a purple-lit backdrop. The guitarist, who rose to global fame after being handpicked by Michael Jackson for his ill-fated This Is It tour, has always embraced a glamorous rock-chic style. But her latest look – complete with flawless skin, plump lips, and perfectly styled locks – has left fans doing a double take. She looked almost unrecognisable from her earlier days on stage, where she was known for her edgy eyeliner, tousled beachy hair and more laid-back fashion. However, she still sported the same cheeky grin and slick aviator sunglasses she rocked in the early 2000s. The performer is currently touring across the US and Europe and wowed fans with highlights from some of her recent concerts. Orianthi rose to fame in 2009 for her blistering guitar solo while supporting Carrie Underwood at the Grammy Awards and for being chosen as Michael Jackson's lead guitarist for his This Is It tour, which was ultimately cancelled due to his death. She has released five studio albums, with her most recent, titled Rock Candy, releasing in 2022. In 2018, Bon Jovi alum Richie Sambora and Orianthi ended their four-year relationship, but they made clear they would still be working together musically. The New Jersey-born Grammy winner is 26 years older than his Australian girlfriend (last name Panagaris) and, collectively, their band is known as RSO. 'Thank [you] to all our fans who have bought the new RSO record [Radio Free America, which dropped in May] and attended our shows, we love and appreciate you all,' the musician duo told TMZ in a statement. 'We love and support each other but are taking the summer off to focus on family and other endeavours. We will regroup in the near future with our music. Peace and love to you all and thank you for your continued support.' Richie loved that Orianthi had 'a lot of soul for someone so young' and they became a couple immediately upon meeting through her former employer, Alice Cooper. 'There was no hesitation with anything,' Sambora gushed to Guitar World back in October 2017. 'We dove right in and became a couple right away. We didn't really think, "Oh, we should keep the musical and personal things separate".' The wig-loving blonde - who also used to work for Michael Jackson - added: 'I think what really helped is the fact that we're both guitarists. 'We share a language, and we have so much respect for each other. That makes everything easier.'

Gameday 77 Preview: Flyers vs. Canadiens
Philadelphia Flyers right wing Tyson Foerster (71) celebrates his goal against the Montreal Canadiens during the third period at Wells Fargo Center. (Eric Hartline-Imagn Images) There's something about Montreal in the spring that brings a certain cinematic energy to the game. A classic building. A storied opponent. And tonight, the stakes for the Philadelphia Flyers couldn't be clearer. If they lose in any fashion, whether in regulation, overtime, or a shootout, their playoff hopes are officially extinguished. Advertisement It's not where they wanted to be. But it's not necessarily the end, either. The Flyers have been playing some inspired hockey under interim head coach Brad Shaw. They're skating hard, playing loose, and showing a kind of purpose that doesn't always show up in the standings—but speaks volumes in the locker room. Tonight's clash against the Canadiens is more than just a math problem involving the standings; it's a chance to keep pushing, to embrace the role of disruptor, and to look forward—because there's still plenty to look forward to. 1. This Is It: Facing Elimination with Pride Still on the Line Let's not beat around the bush—this one has emotional weight. Advertisement The Flyers are on the brink. A loss, in any form, and their postseason hopes vanish. But this team doesn't sulk. They fight. Brad Shaw has been honest since taking the reins from John Tortorella: he wants this group to embrace the 'spoiler' role. If the Flyers go down, they're going to drag other teams into the mud with them. They're going to keep skating like their playoff lives still matter. Because to them, the way they finish the season says just as much as where they finish in the standings. Shaw's approach has been simple and effective. He's loosened the reins a little, allowed for some more fluid creativity, and the team's energy has reflected that. They're playing with more pace, making more high-skill plays, and having more fun out there. And even in the wake of gutting losses and mounting injuries, there's been no quit. That matters. Advertisement Tonight is their first road test under Shaw, and the Bell Centre is no gentle place to try and find your footing. The Canadiens will want to deliver the final blow to Philadelphia's playoff chances on home ice. For the Flyers, it's not just about survival. It's about making a statement that says: we're not done fighting. 2. Karsen Dorwart's NHL Debut: A Glimpse of What's to Come It's always special when a player makes his NHL debut. And for Karsen Dorwart, it comes at a time when the Flyers' organizational messaging has been consistent: the youth movement is real, and it's here. Signed out of Michigan State after an impressive senior season, Dorwart brings a compelling mix of motor, intelligence, and grit. He's not the flashiest prospect, but he's the kind of two-way forward the Flyers covet—one who plays with detail, supports the puck, and makes the right reads. He earned this look, plain and simple. Advertisement And don't be surprised if he makes an impact early. Dorwart has a knack for being in the right place at the right time. He keeps his feet moving, battles hard on the boards, and plays a selfless brand of hockey that tends to endear quickly to coaches. More than anything, his debut marks another brick laid in the Flyers' rebuild—not a teardown, but a purposeful build. And while the focus will be on his first NHL shifts, his presence is also a signpost of how the Flyers are evaluating, experimenting, and setting up next year's camp to be a competitive cauldron of opportunity. 3. Calder Clash: Matvei Michkov vs. Lane Hutson There's no shortage of intrigue in tonight's game, but one of the most compelling storylines is the unofficial Calder Trophy showdown between Flyers sensation Matvei Michkov and Canadiens blueliner Lane Hutson. Advertisement Michkov, simply put, has been electric. With his dazzling puck control, elite vision, and uncanny ability to find soft space in dangerous areas, he's become—unsurprisingly—a crucial part of Philadelphia's offense. He's made a legitimate push for the rookie scoring title, all while adapting to a new culture, language, and league. Every night, he gives fans something to talk about. And he's still only 20. Philadelphia Flyers winger Matvei Michkov (39) moves from behind the net against the Detroit Red Wings at the Wells Fargo Center on Jan. 21, 2025. (Megan DeRuchie-The Hockey News) Hutson, on the other hand, has been a standout on the back end. Undersized but fearless, his offensive instincts and transition skills have sparked the Canadiens from the blue line all season. He's cerebral, slippery, and smooth, with the kind of spatial awareness that lets him walk the line like a tightrope artist. This isn't just about who's putting up more points. It's about style, creativity, and who can take the spotlight when the game gets tight. It's a fascinating chess match between two of the brightest young stars in the league—and it's the kind of side narrative that makes a late-season game between two playoff outsiders feel like must-watch television. Advertisement The Bottom Line There are games that matter in the standings, and there are games that matter in the soul. Tonight might be both. The Flyers don't want this to be the night they're mathematically eliminated—but if it is, you can bet they'll go out swinging. There's youth making its debut, stars putting on a show, and a new coach trying to ignite something that lasts longer than a playoff push. The foundation is still being built. And if you watch closely, you can already see what's coming next. Tonight, in Montreal, another brick gets laid.
