Esenyacht, the Bodrum-based manufacturer of specialist custom superyachts, is proud to unveil the first four images of the 50-metre sailing yacht Troy. Superyacht Troy is currently under construction at the yard, scheduled for completion in late 2014.

With exterior styling and interior design by Tim Saunders working in conjunction with Esenyacht’s own design team, luxury yacht Troy will have accommodation for 12 guests and nine crew members. The spaces below decks will feature long flowing lines that reflect her role as a performance sailing yacht designed for competitive regatta racing as well as luxury cruising.

Materials used will include marble from Esenyacht’s own quarry in central Anatolia and fine leathers sourced from suppliers to some of the top Italian luxury brands. This is in keeping with the Esenyacht ethos of uncompromising attention to detail and, as with the marble, the use of its own expertise and resources wherever possible.

Special attention has also been paid to the design and layout of the galley, which will include technology not previously used in the yachting sector. More information on this will be released in the coming months. Work meanwhile is now focused on the initial fitting out of the steel hull, with the composite superstructure due to go on in early 2014.

Troy yacht follows on from Esenyacht’s inaugural sailing yacht project Glorious, a spacious 36m yacht launched in 2011 that is currently chartering in the Mediterranean. Also available for sale, she was the first iteration of the Esenyacht philosophy that sets out to combine northern European quality with a commitment to building yachts that are genuinely handcrafted down to the finest details. This represents a deliberate departure from the standard superyacht model of complex supply chains and assembly-orientated production techniques.

“We prefer the sense of personalisation that comes with our approach to building one-off yachts,” says General Manager Deniz Can. “The consistency that comes with high quality craftsmanship from one’s own workshops never goes out of fashion.”
