DART65
The finest conceptual talents of Winch Design, renowned Azure Naval Architects and quality superyacht-builder Royal Huisman are aligning to form the “Dream Team”, the creative force behind the stunning DART motoryachts.
The creators are delighted to announce the spectacular new 65m / 213ft interpretation with a raised pilot house (profile with blue hull pictured above). The DART65 is as her larger sister, the DART80 (pictured with white hull below on Hong Kong background), equally perfectly proportioned and retaining all the exceptional aesthetic and lifestyle features that make this design such a distinctive, imaginative and desirable superyacht.
Designers’ overview The unique shape and styling of the DART range is inspired by the marine world itself – a yacht in harmony with the ocean surrounding it. The sheerline and arc of DART’s profile is inspired by the arc of a leaping dolphin, the long, purposeful bow reflects the sleekness of its body in the water, the mast hints at the tail of a whale. The name DART derives from this perfect harmony between aerodynamic and hydrodynamic.
As her larger sistership, the DART65 displays all the features and truly distinctive styling, including a full-beam lounge on the main deck and an owner’s stateroom offering a fully panoramic view – a feature achieved courtesy of the raised pilothouse. Guests have access to a private relaxation area on the expansive foredeck, complete with the possibility of a jacuzzi as well as on the sundeck over the raised pilothouse providing panoramic views. Full-height windows extend from the formal lounge to the owner’s area, creating a sheltered, yet open and light-filled, environment for the guests’ enjoyment.
Unique to the DART 65, lounges are situated on all three levels, together with interior and exterior dining areas, accommodating 12 guests. Exclusivity, luxury and lifestyle are at the very heart of the DART concept. More information including various possibilities of the DART65 general arrangement will be available on the Royal Huisman stand at the Monaco Yacht Show and Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.
