Launched earlier this year, the 55.5m/182ft DAMEN yacht support vessel POWER PLAY has now been delivered to her owner after completing sea trials. The vessel debuted at the Monaco Yacht Show 2018 where DAMEN shipyard announced the construction of another yacht support vessel YS 4508.
DAMEN support vessels are designed with outstanding carrying capabilities, making them perfect for remote cruising and expeditions both as a stand-alone yacht or a shadow vessel of a luxury superyacht. During sea trails POWER PLAY carried a 15m DAMEN Interceptor on the aft deck, and still had plenty of room on the 240 sqm deck for tenders, water toys and submersibles. The 50 sqm adventure centre aft of the support vessel can be used as a beach club or dive centre. POWER PLAY can accommodate six guests in three cabins and a crew of eleven.
