An esteemed addition to the Royal Huisman fleet, the 52m (107.7ft) sportsfisher yacht SPECIAL ONE is the brainchild of Vripack, a Dutch design firm celebrated for its innovative approach to yacht design and architecture.
Constructed from aluminum to minimize weight, sportsfisher yacht SPECIAL ONE features a semi-displacement hull with a single chine and anti-chine slap spray rail, designed by Vripack for a smooth and comfortable passage. Aesthetically, the yacht exudes understated elegance, with contemporary interiors blending walnut veneers, white furnishings, and Italian marble, complemented by warm lighting and teal accents.
Boasting advanced propulsion technology, tested at MARIN, enabling impressive acceleration and performance, Royal Huisman's CEO, Jan Timmerman, expressed pride in overcoming the challenges of the unique sportsfisher yacht build, emphasizing the shipyard's commitment to innovation and custom solutions. The yacht's owner echoed this sentiment, describing the creation of SPECIAL ONE as a testament to bespoke yacht building, earning admiration and setting a new standard in luxury sportfishers.
Featuring enticing exteriors including a haven for alfresco dining, the mezzanine deck onboard SPECIAL ONE is enhanced by backlit pillars and a bespoke glass chandelier. Below, the fishing cockpit is equipped with a fish prep station and the longest custom outriggers ever made, ensuring an unrivaled fishing experience. A retractable fish finder and state-of-the-art bait and tackle room further enhance her sportfishing credentials.
Making an impact on the yachting industry, SPECIAL ONE is a motor yacht that is proving herself to be special in more ways than one with a main saloon that can only be described as an open-plan marvel, highlighted by a three-person vacuum elevator encased in glass, surrounded by a floating spiral staircase. The owner's suite, replete with rare Panda marble and heated floors, offers a luxurious retreat, while guest cabins feature varying color schemes with walnut contrasts.
Accommodating guests in luxurious comfort across a five-cabin layout, interiors are a testament to fine craftsmanship, with walnut joinery, exotic stonework, and bespoke furnishings.
A standout feature is the three-person pneumatic glass-enclosed elevator, a cutting-edge addition along with a commercial-grade 3D sonar fish finder, the first of its kind on a yacht. Despite her substantial gross tonnage of just under 500GT, she offers expansive social areas across three decks and six enchanting exterior spaces.
