We began this project with a simple question: “If you could design your ultimate dream vessel – what would that be?”
Of course it should be a world cruiser that takes you comfortably from Alaska to the tropics, tough and practical at sea, providing an excellent platform for unforgettable vacations with family and friends. Whale watching in Antarctica, exploring archipelagos in the South Pacific, from the history and glamour of the Mediterranean to the laid-back vibe of the Caribbean. This vessel would offer itineraries full of all the excitement and diversity you could wish for.
We then identified goals that we wanted to achieve:
- An owner’s suite that rivals master staterooms in the 60 meter range
- Luxurious accommodation for 12 guests
- Numerous private outdoor guest living areas
- 4 Stabilizers for extra comfort at anchor (zero speed) and underway
- Long range cruise ability and efficiency – at least 7,000nm
- Large diesel powered jet guest tender
- Strong build, high bow, and ability to handle heavy seas
- Separate service stairways and access for crew
- Comfortable crew quarters (promoting crew longevity)
