M/Y Abydos by Venture Yachts, Laurent Giles & Omega Architects

Venture Yachts, Laurent Giles & Omega Architects have been shortlisted for Motor Yacht 25-40 Metres Award in The International Yacht & Aviation Awards 2022.

Venture Yachts’ flagship project M/Y ABYDOS, a 44-metre carbon-hybrid composite motor yacht, is the result of design work by Omega Architects and naval architecture by Laurent Giles Naval Architects.  The owner had a clear definition of his dream family-boat, which has been embodied by design and engineering experts. Comfortable high-speed cruising, equally sized three VIP cabins for the children and unique country kitchen for family gatherings were all met for ABYDOS. Her luxury interior and exterior designs have an elegant touch and provide the “landscape and nature at sea” feeling that was aimed by the owner.

ABYDOS has high-performance long-distance cruising and soft-riding characteristics and reaches a 24kts max speed thanks to her efficient hybrid hull form. MTU 12V4000 series engines power the 1.5mt diameter propellers, provided by Veem and of their high-spec VEEMSuperyacht-Fast series with interceptors, are recessed into CFD modelled tunnels, which provides the 1,9mt shallow draft. Abydos is designed to create a family yacht without sacrificing a desire for speed.

Abydos’ interior and exterior design is easily distinguishable yet still timeless. It accommodates eleven guests in five staterooms, with a full-beam master cabin located amidships. Three VIP cabins with king-size beds, and a guest cabin with twin beds and a Pullman are placed forward of master cabin. On main deck level, the main saloon is located abaft the raised pilothouse with port and starboard facing lounge seating for a panoramic sea view. Floor to ceiling glass on the forward section provides unobstructed views on both sides of the dining table, which is adjacent to the custom decorative panel provided by Alcyhmia. The flybridge deck is an 88m2 luxury area with a plunge pool and full-beam sunbathing area. U-seating and Dedon loose furniture are located amidship under the hardtop shade, and the dining teak table is surrounded by the forward serving counters and a bar located on port.
