MCP Yachts' 40.7-metre, all-aluminium Project Seaview (ex. MCP 134) has been sighted emerging from the construction shed. She is now undergoing final finishes and painting ahead of her delivery in April 2024.
Project Seaview builds on an existing partnership with Dutch studio Vripack, with the two having previously worked together on the 37.4-metre Queen Tati and the 43.8-metre Raffaella II.
Project Seaview will be built in aluminium, with a layout focused on maximising space and privacy. All areas will be accessed and serviced by crew via stairs independent of the guest staircase – a feature not typically seen in yachts of a similar size bracket.
Accommodation is across seven cabins, including the 360-degree master cabin which has been fitted with a private terrace and settee. Two additional VIP cabins are located on the lower deck. The upper deck has been dedicated to the owner’s family, with a forward-facing observation lounge that includes an asymmetrical balcony "for private family moments".
The upper saloon has been designed with gullwing lookouts for far-flung views and is adjacent to the connection to the large, sheltered aft deck. While interior details have not been revealed, they will be courtesy of South American designer Leonardo Rotsen and will include oversized windows and a balance of classic and modern features.
The RINA-classed yacht will be built with two Caterpillar C32 engines, allowing a maximum speed of 19 knots and a transoceanic range of 3,500 nautical miles when pared back to 10 knots.
The announcement follows MCP Yachts' reveal of Queen Tati's interiors following her delivery in January.
