Blohm + Voss have signed a contract for a large Mega Yacht for delivery 2007. The order has been secured against international competition. The yacht will be constructed using the latest engineering and production technologies of the Hamburg yard, including virtual reality design and laser cutting and welding technology.
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.
