VRIPACK 132

This explorer yacht was designed for a very experienced yachtsman who took his first yacht Indigo, a 103’ CBI Navi, around the world twice via both the southern route Cape Horn and the northern route, the Northwest Passage around the top of Canada.

Our client had this yacht designed and engineered in its entirety in 2007 at a cost of nearly $1,000,000.  The design package was submitted to several shipyards at the time for quotations to build. Unfortunately, the financial climate at the time, 2008, caused the project to be shelved. Everything is ready to begin construction immediately with minor updating needed for classification and technology changes. 

Although conceived some time ago we’re proud how her design stands the test of time. This seaworthy, Classed and MCA compliant design has a flared bow, twin screws and an integrated swim platform providing easy access to the tender garage. She’s designed for frequent worldwide and transatlantic cruising and with its spacious interior can comfortably accommodate up to 14 persons. Divided over three decks, she provides an owner’s cabin with double berth, two guest cabins with two single berths in each cabin and one VIP cabin with a double berth. For the captain and crew there are respectively a double berth and two single berths.

It takes up to a year and considerable expense to engineer and design a custom yacht. Therefore, this offering is a great benefit both from a time perspective and financial, to a client wishing to build such a custom yacht. The engineering design is the most important aspect of this package as it will remain the same.  The profile and layout of the yacht can be changed to suit the client.
