Moonen Yachts Project Manager John Bechtold was very satisfied with the yacht's performance at sea. "It's always exciting to take a brand new design out for the first time. She performed very well at sea, very stable and comfortable. We really noticed how low the noise and vibrations levels are. She's a beautiful boat."
The Moonen 110 recaptures the impeccable quality and proven ocean-going performance of past generations of Moonen yachts, with more space, future-proof technology and more economical operation as low as 60 litres (16 US gallons) per hour.
Commercial Director Victor Caminada says the trials are an important milestone. "The Moonen 110 is a timeless beauty that exemplifies Dutch design excellence. For us that means beautifully designed spaces to be in, but also precision engineering and very high quality craftsmanship. For example the Owner Stateroom is exceptional thanks to both the sweeping 180-degree panoramic views as well as the high comfort levels. When the yacht is at anchor with the generator running, the Owner Stateroom will have a noise level of just 43dB(A)."
The Moonen 110 is for sale at EUR 17 million excluding VAT. Visit the Moonen Yachts website for full specifications, deck layouts and imagery of the completed yacht: www.moonen.com.
