SERVICES DESIGN & ENGINEERING NEW BUILDS & CONVERSIONS REFITS M/Y Abdul Aziz Designed by Maierform, construction took place in Helsingor Waerft in Denmark and she was one of the last ships this yard built. The vessel moved to Southampton Docks for her interior refit where the design of David Hicks was implemented by Nicholson Interiors. It was the largest yacht ever built then, characterized by the local press as a floating palace when it first emerged out of the Southampton dock on May 26th, 1984. Even today she is featured as one of the largest yachts in the world. A couple of years into service, PrivatSea designed and constructed an impressive glasshouse enclosure aft on Deck 5 at the Talos Shipyard facility. M/Y Tueq PrivatSea Projects accomplished the delivery of the 71m M/Y Tueq in just two years. Despite the size of Tueq and her large engines, the noise and vibration levels achieved are considerably lower than the industry standards. Tueq can accommodate 26 people attended by 21 crew and 7 staff. Such a large vessel as Tueq calls for propulsion and auxiliary machinery on a commercial rather than yacht scale. Accordingly, the main engines are Wartsila diesels of 3,600hp each while the three MAN/Leroy Somer generators supply 480kW each. Although the Wartsila engines would normally be found in commercial or military vessels, in Tueq they have been beautifully dressed with white-enameled blocks and chromed cylinder covers. M/V Turama Columbus Caravelle was built in Finland in 1990 as a cruise ship and spent most of her time in China as a floating casino. As one might expect, the main machinery and equipment did not suffer a great deal of operational use but other systems onboard almost became redundant and inoperable. Given the vessel’s excellent construction, she was sold in January 2003 and moved to Greece. PrivatSea Projects had 14 months to complete the new designs and deliver the ship before the Athens Olympic Games 2004. This deadline could not be extended as various world prominent personalities had already been invited to use the yacht during the Games. Conversion Project consisted of: complete stern-bow-funnel-mast modification new bar, jacuzzi and helipad on sundeck new Owner’s suite and 24 luxury cabins new salons, dining and bar areas new tenders and water toys new AV and wi-fi systems new foldable embarkation ladders and gangway M/Y Tueq Lengthening The Owners requested that the two children’s cabins on the upper deck should be transformed into a single, spacious suite and new spaces should be created in the lower deck to accommodate four extra cabins. Computer modeling suggested that the upper and bridge deck should also to be extended to maintain a balanced, sleek profile and the propulsion system be extended. After approval, structural drawings and cutting files were prepared by Azure Engineering (NL). Steel and aluminum works, including the demanding task of fitting the new shafts, were subcontracted to Elefsis Shipyards. All other works such as the interior outfitting, teak decking, stainless fixtures, deck head ceilings, fairing & painting as well as all necessary updates for regulatory and safety purposes, were assigned to local Greek contractors and the overall management and supervision was handled by PrivatSea Projects. Limousine Tender PrivatSea designed and constructed a custom-made limousine tender built to the specific needs of a private yacht owner. At 8m long, 2.6m wide and 1.9m high, she can comfortably accommodate up to 10 passengers. Powered by two efficient and compact inboard-outboard engines (type Mercury Diesel QSD2.8-20S (220HP) with a Stern Drive BRAVO III X 2.00/1 and assisted by one “MAX POWER” bow thruster) the tender can reach an impressive speed of 35 knots. A lifting roof hatch allows for easy access to the spacious, fully air-conditioned cabin which is also served by one chiller unit 15,000BTU/HR. PRIVACY POLICY © PrivatSea 2021.
