Space, speed and style

Van der Valk shipyard shares the first images of a new concept for a 30-metre superyacht, building on their explorer range.

The stylish Explorer has a wealth of interior space, but will be designed to travel at speed, with a fast displacement hull.

While functionality usually takes priority over looks on most explorer-type motoryachts, designer Guido de Groot has ensured a luxury feel is also present.

She has the facilities of a superyacht, with a beach club, hydraulic transom platform, full-beam master suite forward, four guest cabins and plenty of space for crew.

Styling-wise, this is still clearly an Explorer yacht with negative windows in the wheelhouse, while the angled bow adds length and elegance. Another design element is the way the window graphics have been smoothly integrated within dark glass surfaces.

As you would expect from a boat designed for taking the whole family – or groups of close friends – on long adventures at sea, there is a considerable amount of interior volume available, including exceptionally high ceilings.
