AN ICON IS BORN

For many owners, the concept of enjoying a ‘home at sea’ is what drives their passion for yachting. But when industry standards and regulatory constraints come into play that simple vision is often lost. Not so for the owner of Vripack’s new 55m yacht, whose desire to use his boat as a family apartment became the founding principle of the entire design.

To date there have been only nine successful passages by superyacht, and five of these were made on yachts designed by Vripack. In fact, Vripack designed the first superyacht to ever make the crossing.
