The Megaway 128 yacht, a tri-deck superyacht of LOA 128 feet, has been launched in Singapore. The Megaway 128 superyacht is built to Bureau Veritas (BV) Class, supported by 2 MTU engines, running at 18 knots. A momentous milestone especially for its Managing Director of Megaway Engineering & Trading, Mr. S.L. Ho and their team who saw the fruition of their stanch efforts to superyacht-building venture a success.
Atypical to some, a Superyacht was crafted and built in Singapore, with its accommodation and interiors conceived by Megaway’s in-house designers.
The Megaway 128 yacht accommodates 12 guests in 6 guest cabins, and 8 captain and crew in 4 cabins. She runs on approximate 3000 nm at 18 knots, and approximately 5000 nm at 15 knots.
Indeed, a very bold attempt for Megaway as it is their first foray into superyacht-building and represents a concerted effort to venture into hitherto uncharted waters. Megaway was formed in 1986 whose main area of operation had been in the marine and offshore engineering industries. Hitherto, Megaway was quick to recognize the need to transition from commercial projects to crafting large luxury vessels; a paradigm shift without its set of challenges. The whole concept was then conceptualized with its management and working on drafts by its company’s partners and dedicated team of tradesmen.
Megaway has worked with industry classification bodies such as ABS (American Bureau of Shipping), Den Norkse Veritas (DNV) and Bureau Veritas (BV). Megaway received its ISO 9001:2000 certification in 2004 from Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance and operates out of its premised located in the Western part of Singapore. Covering approximately 43,000 sq ft, the yard is equipped with overhead cranes, fabrication slap and has direct access to the sea frontage (Tuas Basin).
