Van Geest Design has unveiled a new 60-metre OPEN sailing yacht concept. Boasting a sleek and modern hull, the 60m Van Geest OPEN fly bridge superyacht will be a true pleasure to sail cruising around or competing in the big boat regattas. The naval architecture is by Rob Doyle Design, ensuring a good performance in all conditions.

Besides the helm- and control stations, there is a lounge/dining area aboard the new 60m Van Geest OPEN yacht concept, located on the fly bridge, with a 360 degrees view of the surroundings.

The main deck of the 60m Van Geest OPEN luxury yacht concept features a modern styled superstructure, flush foredeck and raised bulwarks. All these details are enhancing the clean, non-clutter look and appearance.

Aft of the deckhouse is the large main cockpit which connects to the pool and sunbathing area.

The bulwarks are opened and fitted with glass for a good view of the surroundings from this cockpit, but also from the main salon, located in the main superstructure.

While at anchor the aft deck can be transformed and almost doubled in size by hinging out the aft hull/bulwark panels and turning them into side platforms.

The owners cabin is located just forward of this link directly to this beach area.
