Known as NB101 during production, motor yacht LA VIE has naval architecture by Ginton Naval Architects, exterior styling from VYD Studio and interiors from Leonardo Santini Design. Golden yellow and contrasting dark chocolate accents highlight the warm cream tones used throughout the interior, adding to the sense of space and serenity within.

The first two Virtus 47 hulls were sold in February 2021, and all Virtus 46 models are customisable. As standard, the main deck Master suite comes with a fold-down terrace, and the main salon aboard M/Y LA VIE comes with a fold-down terrace on both sides. Other customisable features include the option of the Jacuzzi and pool in different configurations, the choice of a longitudinal or transverse tender garage and even the position of the superstructure.

The upcoming 47.2m/154.10ft NB102 will be launched in a couple of months, while the 47.3m/155ft NB100 will be launched in 2023. Both of these will have interiors by Red Yacht Design.
