Antalya-based shipyard, Sunrise Yachts, is proud to announce that the brand new motor yacht Atomic (Project Sunset, hull 182) will make her premiere at the 2014 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS), running next week. Superyacht Atomic represents the second vessel in the Sunrise 45m series. She was delivered to her new Owner last month.
Timeless yacht concepts last forever: Five years after delivering motor yacht “Africa”, Sunrise Yachts launched a sister ship in August in Antalya started as “Project Sunset – Hull 182″. The yacht’s name “Atomic” remained confidential until its delivery to its North-American client as the yacht was a surprise to his family!
Luxury yacht Atomic is a three-deck, deep-sea, full displacement, transatlantic, steel hull and aluminium superstructure luxury motor yacht, built to operate for private use or charter in all seas and oceans of the world.
Atomic yacht’s main characteristics include large volumes at 499 Gross Tons, excellent deck heights, great stability, comfort and seaworthiness, very low levels of sound and vibration, an affective layout, and extreme fuel efficiency.
A full-length technical tunnel running from the engine room to the bow-thruster compartment an unprecedented feature on yachts in this category until the launch of the first vessel in the series, M/Y “Africa” provides easy access to tanks and systems at bilge deck level.
The interior design was entrusted to the talent of Nantes-based Franck Darnet Design, who had previously designed the interior for M/Y “Africa”. In sharp contrast with the first Sunrise 45m’s dark tropical woods, “Hull 182”’s contemporary and elegant décor will feature light veneers and a bright colour scheme.
Following the Atomic yacht’s maiden cruise in Turkey and Greece last month, the owner stated: “I was thrilled to step aboard “Atomic” at the launch. As I walked around the yacht I found everything to be just as designed. The team at Sunrise have built me a master piece, perfect in fit and finish and crafted with a talent for detail. It was a pleasure working with the young company owners and team as they all wanted to go beyond the norm to create a wonderful yachting experience. I love the sturdy steel hull built to be a world wide capable yacht yet designed to be miserly on fuel. “Atomic” will be an awesome floating family home, a base for great adventure.”
Guillaume Roché, the Sunrise Yachts CEO, stated: “Just like M/Y “Africa” was one of the “star” yachts when introduced at the Monaco Yacht Show, we are confident that the new 45m will be one of the most notable yachts delivered worldwide this year in its category. We believe that the yacht further demonstrates our commitment to excellence and to continually improving our standards while remaining a competitive alternative to quality European builders.”
“Atomic” superyacht will be showcased by appointment only at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, October 30-November 3rd, 2014.
