Eighth Moonen 122 Martinique Motor Yacht Launched and Christened Lollipop

Moonen Yachts has launched and christened the 37m motor yacht Lollipop, previously known as YN206. 

Designed with naval architecture by Diana Yacht Design, exterior styling by René van der Velden, and interiors by Vripack Yacht Design, the eighth Moonen 122 Martinique builds on a proven platform with a highly personalized brief.

Metallic Hull Finish Sets Lollipop Apart

René van der Velden’s exterior lines remain consistent with the Martinique series, defined by balanced proportions and a clean profile suited to displacement cruising. What sets Lollipop apart is her metallic hull finish, which shifts between white, light silver, and soft blue-grey tones depending on the light. This is paired with a crisp white superstructure, giving the yacht a subtle visual identity without departing from the series’ established look.

The platform itself continues to focus on efficiency and comfort, with a steel hull and an overall design aimed at transatlantic range. The familiar design language ensures continuity across the series, while the custom finish adds a clear point of difference.

A Tailored Interior Led by Vripack

Inside, Vripack has shaped a warm, tailored environment guided by the owners’ preferences. The Dutch studio’s holistic approach is evident in spaces arranged to support comfort and a close connection to the sea, with a layout that prioritizes usability over formality. Materials, tones, and detailing are selected to create a relaxed atmosphere throughout the superyacht, moving away from more traditional superyacht styling in favor of something more individual.

While the shipyard has not disclosed full layout details, the emphasis is clearly on livability during extended cruising. The result is an interior that aligns with the Martinique series’ reputation for long-range capability while introducing a more personal character.

A Distinct Take on Deck Spaces

The most distinctive elements of Lollipop are found on deck, where the owners worked closely with Vripack to introduce a more expressive approach to outdoor spaces. The sun deck features a custom jacuzzi with a front panel that incorporates candy-inspired detailing, setting the tone for a more relaxed and informal entertaining area.

Adjacent to this, a bespoke cocktail bar becomes a central feature, with a transparent countertop embedded with lollipops and candy elements. Soft pastel lighting tubes form the bar’s front, creating a focal point that stands apart from the more restrained styling typically seen in this size range. These additions give the motor yacht a clear identity, while still working within the practical framework of the Martinique platform.

Sea Trials to Follow Launch in the North Sea

Built in high-tensile steel, Lollipop is engineered for long-range cruising, maintaining the transatlantic capability that defines the 122 Martinique series. The emphasis remains on efficiency, comfort, and reliability over outright speed, in line with the expectations of an owner looking to spend extended time on board.
