World’s Top Yachts: One Fifty

By Chris Boyle

Dock Access

The new One Fifty by Sunreef Yachts is the result of an in-depth study by the vessel manufacturer into innovative concepts for modern and luxury sailing catamarans.

NEW KID ON THE BLOCK

In Profile Onefifty

Designed as a green and modern alternative to the large motor yacht or motor sailer, the One Fifty by Sunreef Yachts, designed by Michal Gorzynski from the company’s in-house design team, will be the second-largest sailing catamaran in the world when built.

The main strengths of catamarans are twofold. Because of their rectangular shape they offer considerably more usable deck space than a traditionally shaped yacht of similar length, and the increased waterline length owing to the dual hulls also offers significant performance dividends. As a result they are becoming more and more popular for those looking for luxury and performance combined into a yacht capable of traveling the world without hastening its demise.

The futuristic look of the One Fifty, at once both simple and minimalist, derives principally fromthe almost invisible full-beam deckhouse. The superstructure has moved away from traditional lines; hulls, sides and bulwark are now one solid streamlined structure. The link between the aft deck and the navigation station on the flybridge is through a centrally positioned sloping deck. The elegant lines are further enhanced by the use of uncut teak and solar panels on the large surface area.

The full-beam deckhouse means that there is space for another level within the hulls, creating increased square footage and layout possibilities. The main deck has gained impressive living space, and all the guest sleeping accommodations can now be located on this level rather than down in the hulls, allowing for light to flow into the cabins through large picture windows rather than portholes.

The One Fifty has a highly innovative design and will be a welcome addition to both catamarans and superyachts. With a focus on being green, the One Fifty is not only designed to look good, but to be an ecologically sound vessel. At this stage she will be built on a custom-order basis only.
