Double delivery for Damen Yachting

by Damen Yachting 21 Aug 2025 23:16 PDT

The Damen Yachting team proudly announces the successful deliveries of two impressive yachts to one and the same Owner: the Xplorer 60 and the YS53, sold and managed by TWW Yachts.

Both yachts were built and launched at Damen Yachting's dedicated shipyard in Antalya, supported by Dutch heritage, engineering, and craftsmanship, ensuring the highest standards of quality and innovation.

The Xplorer 60 AFTER YOU is a 60-metre masterpiece, designed not only for extreme adventurers but as a superyacht, seamlessly blending bold design, ultimate comfort, and freedom. With its striking hull and unmistakable presence, the Xplorer 60 is as comfortable navigating the glamorous hotspots of the Mediterranean as she is exploring polar frontiers. This remarkable yacht is set to usher in a new era of luxury exploration.

The 53-metre long Yacht Support vessel EMOTIONAL, provides support through additional crew, toys, extra helicopter facilities, and logistical capacity. At the heart of the YS53 lies a design philosophy focused on function, prioritising performance, operational efficiency, and enduring durability.

Together, they form a unique combination for those seeking adventure without compromising on luxury. Damen Yachting is delighted to showcase the Xplorer 60 and the YS53 at the Monaco Yacht Show next month in partnership with TWW Yachts.

Jorrit Pilaar, Sales Manager - Damen Yachting: "It was an absolute pleasure working with the team of TWW Yachts over the last months to get the first Xplorer 60 and the 53-metre Yacht Support ready for delivery. On behalf of everyone at Damen Yachting I would like to wish the Owner and his crew all the very best for their upcoming adventures at sea."

Enrique Tintore, Product & Design Manager Xplorer and Yacht Support - Damen Yachting: "Being able to deliver the very first Xplorer 60 and the latest 53-metre Yacht Support is the result of a fantastic collaboration between the Damen Yachting Teams in Antalya and in Vlissingen as well as the clients' team at TWW Yachts. This double delivery is a landmark moment for Damen Yachting."

A powerful duo

David Westwood, CEO TWW Yachts: 'As representatives of the Owner, our foremost responsibility was to ensure that their vision, expectations, and long-term interests were safeguarded throughout the project. From inception to delivery, we managed the process with a focus on mitigating risks, protecting the Owner's investment, and guaranteeing that the yachts delivered precisely as promised. The result is an exceptional Explorer yacht paired with a powerful support vessel, together creating a unique platform for discovery and adventure at sea. We are pleased to have partnered with Damen Yachting, whose shipyard expertise and proven build quality have been integral to achieving this outcome. Their technical proficiency and reliability as a supplier allowed us to focus on the Owner's priorities with complete confidence."
