The prestigious International Superyacht Society (ISS) Design and Leadership Awards annually recognize individuals as well as companies for their expertise, leadership and dedication to raising the standards of design, building, maintenance, repair and operation of large yachts. It is a remarkable achievement in itself to be nominated as a finalist in these most competitive super yacht awards in the industry. Last year, Guido de Groot Design has been listed with the AB116 Yacht DIAMOND.
AB 116 superyacht
Motor yacht Diamond features a split level main salon, which follows the AB tradition of creating large vertical spaces ahead of the helm position. The yacht features a generous full beam master cabin, with a spacious bathroom, and relaxation lounge. She also has a fitness room that can be converted in a twin cabin, a further two twin cabins and a VIP double cabin. Her contemporary interior can be described as uncomplicated without being minimalist, with light colours and contrasting finishes.
Like the other yachts built by AB Yachts, the 116 superyacht Diamond is built using materials borrowed from the aerospace industry, which ensure light weight, yet high strength and solidity. She displays the sleek, tapered and harmonious lines of an open, emphasized by an iridescent, lightly gilded livery. There’s also a flying bridge, though this is almost invisible to onlookers.

AB116 luxury yacht Diamond is powered by three MTU 16V2000 M93 CR engines, producing 2400 HP each, with 3 MJP water jets that allow the new AB 116 to reach a maximum speed of 46 knots with the utmost confidence and total absence of vibrations.
