DreAMBoat Delivered in Oceanco’s Fastest Build to Date

'This yacht exemplifies what’s possible when all of the hundreds of participants are aligned in the determined execution of a shared vision,' says A.J. Anderson, CEO of Wright Maritime Group.

The project achieved the shortest lead time in Oceanco’s history for a yacht of this scale, with discussions starting in late 2021, contract signing in early 2022, and delivery less than four years later. This unprecedented pace was possible thanks to the owner’s proactive involvement and seamless collaboration amongst Oceanco, Lateral Naval Architects, Espen Øino International (exterior design), Mark Berryman Design (interior), and the owner’s representatives Falcon Yacht Management and Wright Maritime Group.

Oceanco CEO Marcel Onkenhout adds, 'At Oceanco, we believe that great yachts come from great relationships. Having already built one yacht with the owner, we had a strong foundation and quickly aligned on vision. This created an enjoyable and productive environment in which the owner’s dream could be realised.'

Built to accommodate up to 28 guests and 34 crew, DreAMBoat is designed for both conviviality and privacy. Her exterior features a winter garden, covered cocktail terrace, outdoor cinema, private owner’s deck with Jacuzzi, and a versatile entertainment area aft with a swimming pool and Jacuzzi. A state-of-the-art golf simulator on the sun deck reflects the owner’s personal touch.

Inside, guests enjoy a cinema lounge, gym, spa with sauna and steam room, and a beach club lounge and bar opening directly onto the swim platform. Extensive use of glass floods interiors with natural light and maximises uninterrupted sea views, creating a warm yet spacious atmosphere.

Captain Andre Salt notes, 'It has been a privilege for the operational crew to contribute to the owner’s inspiring vision from the very beginning of this project. Delivering DreAMBoat in a record four years stands as a proud testament to the dedication, collaboration and shared passion for the project.'

Sustainability is a cornerstone of DreAMBoat, with the yacht built using Oceanco’s innovative Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tool developed alongside engineering consultants Royal Haskoning. This tool, validated by an independent third party, guided design and material choices to reduce environmental impact. The yacht also features a battery pack for peak shaving and sustainable interior finishes crafted from natural waste materials by Nature Squared.

EdSke Smit, Project Director at Oceanco, reflects, 'From the outset, Project Y726 has benefitted from a deeply collaborative, trusting and positive spirit. She is set to be a standout addition to the Oceanco fleet, and we’re grateful for the strong partnerships with our co-makers, design team and the owner’s team that brought this vision to life.'

With a top speed of 18 knots and a cruising speed of 15 knots, DreAMBoat stands as a masterclass in efficient, luxury design and construction, ready to make waves worldwide as a truly bespoke expression of ownership and innovation.
