Built on speculation, the all-composite five-deck Majesty 175 will feature the interior styling of Cristiano Gatto in a first-time collaboration with Gulf Craft. Concept images show a vast pool on the bow accessed by the main deck, while the aft will be fitted with a large beach club to further complement her lavish interior and exterior relaxation areas.

“The Majesty 175 is the first mega yacht for us – it’s part of an effort we are doing,” CEO Erwin Bamps commented. “Driven by the demand of an existing clientele that says: ‘We trust you guys.’ They believe more in us than we sometimes believe in ourselves.”
