The yacht was designed and constructed in compliance with the Lloyds Register technical standards.

Exterior Design

DAWN is a converted humanitarian support vessel that captivates with its navy blue hull and pearl white superstructure. Damen, steadily gaining recognition in the yacht support vessel sector, designed a vessel brimming with possibilities – a fusion of form, function, and a compelling message. The foredeck area's concise design, characterized by an almost vertical high bow, channels functionality aft, optimizing the vessel's mission efficiency.

The communication and navigation tower, purposefully integrated, ensures robust access during missions, underscoring DAWN's commitment to operational excellence.

A distinctive feature is the open aft, boasting two heavy-duty cranes and a helipad, transforming DAWN beyond a mere vessel into a versatile platform. Damen's expertise shines as the yacht support vessel concept unfolds, accommodating diverse operations, from diving expeditions to additional guest accommodations. The vessel significantly augments its capacity for watercraft, vehicles, helicopters, and tenders.

DAWN's exterior design underscores flexibility, catering to diverse needs. Its primary mission is to support the humanitarian initiatives of Global Support and Development (GSD). Engineered to reach communities in need, the yacht is in constant evolution, incorporating marine survey and basic salvage operations equipment. As a perpetual work in progress, it functions as a mobile operations coordination facility, dedicated to mission coordination and medical support.

The yacht is privately owned and its privacy is respected. Interior photos have not been made available in the public domain.
