As the industry begins preparations for boat show season, we're pleased to share an update on recent completed projects and news from our studio.

SeaXplorer 58

The SeaXplorer 58 from Damen Yachting has completed sea trials and is undergoing final preparations ahead of delivery to the owner.

Having worked extensively in the past for this client, the Design Unlimited team were able to translate his wish for a sociable, indoor-outdoor dynamic in which he can enjoy adventures with friends and family around the world, into the alluring, exciting style which he loves.

Emerald

This 50.4m Feadship underwent a 16-month refit at Balk Shipyard in the Netherlands. The yacht now features a new interior design with a suitably contemporary look for this modern classic.

As well as the new interior, the yacht's main and upper decks were reconfigured to make way for an additional VIP cabin and a servery. The transom was extended, the size of the upper deck saloon was increased, the sun deck was extended to aft and equipped with a hot tub. A full hull repaint in emerald green completed the transformation.

Design Unlimited's varied experience with other superyacht refits, particularly for owners who sought to heighten a yacht's charter appeal, assured the owners we had the specific expertise to make the refit a success.
