Damen Yachting has been commissioned by an experienced owner to build a new custom 72-metre hybrid explorer yacht. Designed by Michael Leach and with an interior by the owner’s team, the construction of the yacht will be overseen by Burgess’ New Construction Team until she is delivered in 2024 in Vlissingen, the Netherlands.
Designed for global cruising, the custom naval architecture by Damen Yachting includes a hybrid system that will allow zero-emission operations as the vessel explores some of the most pristine and untouched waters of our oceans. “This hybrid expedition vessel is an absolutely unique project,” says Damen Yachting Managing Director Rose Damen. “We are dedicated to developing more efficient propulsion and power management solutions for our clients, which are underpinned by an environmentally sensitive mind-set.”
