I was asked if I had any big "open" in my portfolio and in the context of open as in soap designs, I had not. So I made a counter proposal of an open with a more classic design, still pretty innovative.
She is 45 meters and the whole maindeck is enclosed, with an open aft deck and flybridge on top.
The stern is pretty high and is hiding the biggest garage you have seen, partly on maindeck with surrounding windows so you can use it for a party when all the toys are launched.
Forward on main deck is a cosy full beam salon and further forward the owners cabin (under the bridge). Below are four guest cabins and forward is the crew area.
On the bridge deck is a large lounge with floor to ceiling windows including dining area and galley as well as a spacious bridge with observation area.
The transom is folding down to a beach and to launch the tenders there is another hatch going up. This whole area outside/inside will be high enough to not cause any risk if water should go in and thanks to the big side windows also far from the cave feeling of other yacht garages.
When all is closed, the yacht is better protected from unwanted visitors than those with open stairways from the platform...
On the fore deck is space for sunbathing, jacuzzi and sofas so she has a lot to offer if you like to have an "open" yacht without the high maintenance exterior of a soap design...
Propulsion and speed requirements are still to be determined.
