Design & Construction
Designed around a planing aluminium hull and superstructure she features a 32'2" beam and a 13'5" draft. The yacht is built over 6 decks with an internal volume of 499 GT (Gross Tonnes).
Construction started in late 2020. The yacht was designed and constructed in compliance with the Lloyds Register technical standards. Launched in February 2024 this yacht undertook sea trials over the following months. She was delivered to her owners in June 2024.
Exterior Design
The yacht Special One has a design that merges the classic features of an American sportfish boat with the scake of a luxury superyacht. This vessel is distinguished by its pronounced long bow and high bulwarks that gracefully extend to a streamlined fishing cockpit at the stern. The design incorporates six decks, offering ample space and facilities for guests and crew alike.
Special One is constructed with an Alustar® aluminum hull and superstructure, ensuring durability and a lighter weight that enhances her performance and efficiency at sea.
One of the most notable features of Special One is its high tower, which serves a dual purpose. Functionally, it provides an elevated vantage point for fishing, allowing for a better angle of view onto the water. Aesthetically, it doubles as an exceptional viewing platform for guests, enabling them to observe the fishing activity below or simply enjoy the panoramic views.
The yacht is equipped with outriggers, emphasizing her fishing capabilities. Additionally, the exterior of Special One is designed to make a statement in any marina, through innovative exterior laser lighting. This lighting feature was developed in collaboration with FIBR8. The upper deck features a sun awning hardtop and radar mast, further enhancing the vessel's profile.
Interior Design
The interior design of the yacht Special One avoids unnecessary glamour and focuses on a clean, straightforward aesthetic. The joinery is simple, with minimal decorative elements, contrasting the lighter-toned surfaces of paint and fabric against the rich, open-grain walnut joinery.
The Sky Lounge on the upper deck includes an L-shaped bar offers a captivating view of the sportfishing theater during the day, transforming into a serene spot by night where guests can enjoy the beauty of the night sky.
The main saloon is efficiently arranged to include a lounge and dining area, but on a smaller scale to maximize space. This area provides a comfortable environment for guests to relax and dine without overwhelming the senses with excessive detailing. The interior decor features art pieces that subtly nod to the maritime theme, such as Lalique fighting fish sculptures in the main saloon and underwater paintings by Béatrice Prost in the dining room.
Performance & Capabilities
Motor yacht Special One is capable of reaching a top speed of 35 knots. Her planing hull design means she is fast and efficient as she slices through the water.
