The main philosophy for the project was to create a Mega Cruising
Yacht that would be outstanding in performance, styling and technology.
One of the key factors that influenced a Mega Yacht's performance
and handling characteristics is the displacement. The target displacement
for this project was half of what is "normal" for the size
of this yacht. The only way to achieve that is to use high technology
and the best materials available, plus also develop a keel design
with an ample sailing draft but with possibilities to reduce the
keel draft to access harbors. This, plus the task of building a pleasant
interior including raised panels was a challenge and inspiration
to everybody involved.
One important factor in a project like this is a very good and
close co-operation between naval architect, interior designer stylist
and the boat yard. Based on the experience so far we are confident
that the "team" that was involved in this project was second
to none.
Together with the owners, naval architect judel/vrolijk & co
and interior designer John Munford plus our own in-house design team,
R&J Design we made this project something really outstanding.
