The intention is that the yacht is going to be used as a luxury private yacht for worldwide deep sea cruising. All systems, equipment and outfitting will be suitable for such service. Particular care is taken to ensure that she is fit for use in ice cold and steamy hot conditions. All equipment and systems fitted on board will be able to encounter all types of climate conditions. The above mentioned features combined make this motor yacht suitable to cruise all around the world for long periods of time with owner and guests on board.

Because this Research Vessel is very spacious, it can easily be designed to fit a warm and cozy owner’s stateroom together with stylish guest staterooms. What makes this vessel really special is the possibility to fit in a garage suitable for a ‘Mercedes G class’ and a storage room adjacent to this garage allowing to explore back lands on remote Islands. All of this can be fitted in the fore peak of this yacht. Next to that she offers enough space to create multiple tender, kayak and diving storages on the fore and aft deck. An enormous fold up swimming platform is placed aft and there is plenty of room left for a great exploration deck. Vripack has drawn up a complete design which still leaves ample space to customize the multifunctional space for sister vessels. The interior of this Research Vessel can be completely customized to the wishes of the owner.
