DYNAMIQ GTT – A Revolution In Superyachting
DYNAMIQ GTT – A Revolution In Superyachting
At a launch event hosted at the Yacht Club de Monaco, a new name in world superyachting has been revealed – DYNAMIQ. Based on the principles of innovation and functionality, Dynamiq presents a new category of superyachts: grand touring vessels for spirited long-distance journeys in top comfort and style, fully customizable through an online configurator at www.bedynamiq.com.
Dynamiq has pioneered the translation of GT car philosophy to yachts that offer performance, luxury and range in one package – versatile all-occasion superyachts that are designed and equipped for everything from relaxing family cruising to vibrant deck parties. The Dynamiq series offers top speeds over 20 knots, an enormous sun deck and ocean-going autonomy. Dynamiq has called this new category of yachts GTT – Gran Turismo Transatlantic.
Unlike the other yachts that are either fast and relatively uncomfortable with limited range or full displacement with 16 knots of maximum speed, Dynamiq combines the best of both worlds. The fast displacement hull can carry you from Monaco to Saint Tropez in just over 2 hours or make the trip from Miami to the Galapagos on one tank of fuel. A shallow draft of less than 6 feet (1.75 metres) also makes Dynamiq yachts ‘Bahamas friendly’ and gives much more cruising freedom.
The Dynamiq GTT is available in three base models of very manageable, optimum size: the 127 foot (38.6 metre) D4 base model and S4 sport version, and the lengthened 132 foot (40 metre) D4 L limousine version. The base model is equipped with MAN diesels and Fortjes pod drive propulsion to give a maximum speed of 21 knots, while the D4 S sport version features MTU engines and larger pods for a top speed of 25 knots. In addition, the S4 features carbon fibre styling details to the interior and exterior, model-specific paint options and further interior options not available on the base model.
The lengthened D4 L version is the epitome of cruising luxury, with the additional length added in the owner’s suite, the main saloon and the sun deck. A higher base spec and L-exclusive luxury options complete the package.
All three models are built in aluminium to the highest standards of comfort, safety and emission control, and feature RINA Comfort Class and Green Star Plus notations as well as LY3 commercial code equivalence. Four or five guest cabin arrangements are available with crew quarters for six crew members.
All of the Dynamiq models are set to deliver Northern European quality standards with a highly attractive price tag. The base price for the D4 model is €13,900,000, while the D4 L will start from €14,750,000. The S4 sport version is available from a start price of €15,150,000.
Dynamiq’s online configurator is a first for the industry and allows clients to select everything straight on the company’s site at www.bedynamiq.com – from the exterior paint scheme with changes viewed in real time on the virtual model to the interior finish, technical equipment, style accents, tender, crew uniforms, toys and even a crew car. The configurator features full pricing for every element, while a running total gives the exact price and delivery date for the customised yacht. This transparency in pricing and delivery schedule is set to revolutionise the way series superyachts are specified and ordered.
“Our goal was to create a next generation yacht for a new era – efficient, clean, easy to order and customize. And that’s what Dynamiq is all about,” explains Sergei Dobroserdov, the company’s founder and CEO.
Dynamiq united the biggest names in the industry to create the GTT range. With a hull developed for Dynamiq by leading Dutch naval architects Azure and optimisation by world-renowned hydrodynamic specialists Van Oossanen, these vessels feature a highly efficient shape with a vertical stem.
On board comfort has been put at the forefront of the Dynamiq brief, and as a result every Dynamiq features smooth motion at sea and anchor thanks to the hull design, the latest electric stabilisers from CNC and optional hull control from Humphree. Advanced air conditioning systems refresh the air several times an hour, while special laminated XIR glass for the giant main deck windows reduces UV light and heat transmission, in turn reducing interior temperature build-up and reducing aircon loads. On deck, weather protection and infrared heating for the main deck and sun deck dining areas extends an owner’s cruising season, while allowing the expansive deck areas to be enjoyed even when cruising higher latitudes.
The class-leading, 120 square metre (1,292 square foot) sundeck has been carefully designed with five versatile zones: an aft sunbathing area, an alfresco dining area with optional home theatre, a bar and barbecue zone, a spa pool, and a forward sunbathing area that can also be specified as an optional exterior gym. A bespoke range of Dynamiq furniture designed by Glyn Peter Machin adds an air of individual luxury.
The interior layout features a main deck saloon with dedicated forward dining area, while owner and guest en suite cabins are all located amidships on the lower deck for maximum comfort in the area of the yacht with the least amount of movement. Class-leading interior heights offer up to six inches more headroom than any other yacht in class, while floor-to ceiling main deck windows and giant hull ports flood every area with natural light. Crew areas have been designed to MLC specification, and feature carefully considered traffic routes – including a direct connection to the lower deck guest areas – to ensure top service with minimum intrusion on guests.
The overall interior design has been realised by world-renowned London studio Bannenberg & Rowell, and features an elegant, contemporary base style. Materials and finishes can be customised by the client, and there is also the option for a fully bespoke interior design from B&R for a fixed cost.
Accessories and fabrics are offered from the world’s top luxury brands and fashion houses, and the options list includes soft furnishings and fabrics from brands such as Hermès, Loro Piana and Armani Casa, plus THG bathroom fittings, Christofle cutlery, Baccarat glassware, Pratesi linen and towels, and even a unique atomiser system featuring scents from Aqua di Parma that can be distributed through the aircon system for a subtle and luxurious aroma on board.
Dynamiq yachts are also equipped with the very latest technology, from the integrated bridge with 24-inch screens, full Apple-based guest control systems to Phillips’ hue© WiFi lighting for deck areas. High-end audio comes from Bowers & Wilkins. Guests can also control their complete environment using Dynamiq’s specially developed D-app.
