Spaceship 60 Power Cat set for launch March 2024
DEMEY Yachts is making significant progress with its inaugural Spaceship 60 Power Cat, set for launch in March 2024. Interior finishing is nearing completion, and systems and engineering are currently at 90% finished. As custom builds go, the primary focus now shifts to the paintwork in the lead-up to Christmas. Two Spaceships are concurrently in the manufacturing phase, the second poised for a July 2024 launch. Both clients, one from New Zealand and the other based in Australia, created a design and build brief around creating “the best” in every aspect, prioritizing fuel efficiency, safety and comfort.
A milestone achieved for Boat 1 is the installation of the coach roof, the last major carbon fibre part to be built, revealing a ground breaking feature on a vessel this size with an upper boat storage area. This unique aspect adds versatility and functionality to the crafts. It provides dedicated space for water toys such as jet skis, paddle boards, or small yachts alongside a separate upper entertainment area; the purpose-designed 3.7-meter carbon fibre catamaran tender is housed in the lower tender garage.
The design and construction quality level stands out on both vessels, impressively evident upon inspection. Both crafts are identical in every aspect, from interior surfaces to colours and systems; when navigating both crafts without a factory reference, you would be hard-pressed to know which build you are on. It is also unusual for two separate clients who were strangers to each other at the start of the build process agreeing to build identical vessels in every aspect, the level of focus DEMEY Yachts brings to communication, design and build execution is obviously at play here.
