Wave Piercing 75-Foot Explorer Yacht For Sale

If you think you might run into some heavy seas on your next cruise (or even on the cruise after that), you might want to take a look at Enmer , a 75-foot explorer yacht that’s built to handle them all.

Enme r in a 2019 version of a 75-foot, 44-knot Safehaven Marine XSV20 that’s built to go anywhere in the world. The front windshield is supposed to be bulletproof: It’s made of inch-thick ballistic glass. The hull is designed to blast through waves offshore, not riding over the top.

The hull is reinforced with carbon fiber and Kevlar, and it has a sharp, wave-piercing entry with a deep-V midsection flowing back to two catamaran-like aft sections for stability.

Enmer is powered by twin 1,150-hp CAT C18s with waterjet derives. It has a top speed of 44 knots and a range of 600 nm at 26 knots. Humphree Interceptors provide control at all speeds.

The interior is minimalist, with two cabins, holding two people each, plus a crew quarters. The pilothouse has four SHOXS shock-absorbing helm and passenger seats.

Enmer was built for Jack Setton, the French billionaire and yacht owner, power and sail. On its delivery, the boat cruised 2,500 miles from the Safehaven yard in Cork, Ireland, to Setton’s slip in Porto Cervo, Sardinia. Now it’s for sale in the south of France, with a price of 1,950,000 Euros, or about $2,374,000, listed with Edmiston Yachts. (See the video below.)

For his part, Setton will move on to another adventure. He got in to boating in 1966 when he and his father saw Don Aronow’s Magnum 27, and got hooked. They had a similar boat designed in France, replacing the sterndrives with outboards and taking some weight out of the hull. Then they built it, as the Setton Bullit 298, in Miami. The U.S. Navy bought some and dropped them from airplanes.

Jack Setton himself moved on to building and buying a series of innovative sail and power boats, including a 194-foot expedition yacht and a 105-foot converted Gulf coast shrimp boat called Pink Shrimp .

Specs.: LOA: 75’0”; Beam: 17’7”; Draft: 2’’9”; Disp.: 52,910 lbs.; Fuel: 1,056 gals.; Water: NA; Power: 2×1,150-hp CAT diesels. Read more:

Enmer 75-Foot Explorer Yacht

• January 23, 2021
• News / Yachts

This Wave-Piercing 75-Foot Explorer Yacht Is Designed to Dominate Stormy Seas.

The 23m 2019 safehaven marine motor yacht enmer is offered for sale and offers a rare chance to buy a fast, efficient and modern yacht in brand-new condition with immediate delivery..

Enmer has a unique hybrid hull that combines an asymmetrical catamaran with a wave-piercing mono hull that is both stable and highly capable and does away with the need for additional stabilisers, even at anchor. The yacht is also designed to keep noise and vibration to a minimum.

The interior was designed to be simple, yet comfortable enough for long cruises. In the main salon there is shock mitigating seating at the helm, with a concealed galley and a settee with a retractable table that transforms into a bed. The rest of ENMER’s accommodation comprises an Owner’s cabin and a VIP, both en suite. There is also accommodation for crew in the bow.

Stairs from the salon lead up to the flybridge, which offers a second dry helm position, with no wind even at 40 knots, thanks to a bimini designed to remain open at full speed. There is also a joystick on starboard aft for easy docking, meaning few crew are needed.

The generous aft deck provides alfresco dining or seating for up to eight, and can easily be converted to a sunbathing area, with loungers and a large sun bed.

Powered by a pair of Caterpillar C18 1,150hp engines, ENMER has a top speed of 44 knots with a decent offshore range of 600nm. She also comes with a backup diesel generator and solar panels, enabling her to spend extended periods at anchor.

This New Wake-Surf Boat Creates a Wave Big Enough to Make Maui Jealous

They call it “Gigawave” for a reason. This high-powered, all-electric watercraft is promising to create the biggest, tallest, and best-curling wave for the ultimate thrill ride in the fast-growing sport of wake surfing . The brainchild of New York-based boat designer Matthew Blew, his concept Gigawave 350 GW-X will feature a hull that’s designed to throw up a continuous, head-height barrel that will match the size and feel of Maui’s finest rollers.

“We’re looking to bridge the gap between surfing and wake surfing and elevate the whole surfing experience,” Blew told Robb Report .

Boat of the Week: This Wave-Piercing 75-Foot Explorer Yacht Is Designed to Dominate Stormy Seas

Instead of big, exhaust-spewing inboards to move the 35-foot Gigawave through the water, Blew plans to use a pair of high-torque, zero-emission 300-hp electric motors that will be powered by a bank of lithium-ion batteries. “We’ve upped the battery capacity since our original concept,” he says. “Now we’re looking at a full megawatt of power—the equivalent of a million watts.” The goal is a run-time of six to eight hours between charges, and a quick two-hour charge time with industrial chargers.

The Gigawave’s secret of creating a huge wake will be its enormous weight, targeted at a hefty 30 tons. “You don’t need to go fast to create a towering wake,” he says. “We’re aiming at a surfing speed of somewhere between 10 and 16 mph.”

With Gigawave expected to launch next year, Blew and his small team, including industrial designer Ryan Wetjen-Barry, are fine-tuning its “Wave Manipulation System” hull design. The next step will be scale models for tank-testing to ensure their theories work.

Blew’s credentials include a stint as design engineer with Regal Boats, then as design director with recreational pontoon boat maker, Crest Marine. For the past four years, he has been researching the wake surfing market while coaching water sports. When we caught up with the 35-year-old, he was in Costa Rica perfecting his kite-surfing skills. Blew has been a dedicated wake-surfer for eight years.

Where did the idea for Gigawave come from? About four years ago, Blew noticed that wake surfers were switching from traditional wakeboard boats to bigger, 40-foot-plus yachts so they could surf in taller, more challenging waves.

Gigawave’s price tag will be around $600,000. Early hand-raisers include a mix of wealthy private buyers, wake-surfer clubs, and high-end resorts specializing in watersports. “What it creates are perfect surfing conditions,” he says. “I’ve lost count of the times I’ve traveled to a surf location only to find there’s no swell. With Gigawave you have waves on demand.”

His initial renderings of the boat—with its bluff bow, tiny foredeck, helm-at-the-front, and awkward mix of hard- and soft-tops—didn’t win universal praise on social media.

“We’re still exploring a lot of different options,” says Blew. “But the renderings did create a great deal of interest—more than 35,000 website visitors in a month and 500-plus emails. We can’t wait to prove the technology.”

WAVE-PIERCING BOW TECHNOLOGY EXPLAINED

by Gregor Tarjan photo:  Billy Black

Wave-piercing bows – or reverse or hammerhead bows are part of today’s cutting edge naval architecture and the latest thinking in go fast comfort. Versus conventional overhanging or straight stem bows, wave-piercing bows are reversed and are designed to cut through waves, increase performance by reducing pitch resistance. The added benefit is not only higher speeds but a much more comfortable motion at sea.

There are several reasons to consider designing a boat with reverse rake bows. The primary rationale why we consider this hull shape is to reduce pitching motion caused by waves of certain amplitude and frequency. I think an easy way to explain it is this: Assume you are sailing along in smooth water with a conventional shaped hull with no pitching motion. Along comes a single wave. As your bow starts to penetrate into the wave, you pick up buoyancy in the overhanging bow region. The boat reacts to this increase in buoyancy by pitching bow-up. As the wave passes under the boat, the bow then must fall back to equilibrium. The more reserve buoyancy the wave sees as the bow penetrates through the wave, the more pitching moment is imparted onto the boat by the wave and the greater the potential for pitching motion. So if your bow has a lot of overhang or flare (vertical angle of the hull sides), then you naturally have a lot of reserve buoyancy high up in the bow region and this may result in excessive pitching motion. Of course the downside to a reverse -wave piercing bow might be a slightly wetter ride on a small multihull such as a beach cat, but on cats larger than 35′ this is hardly an issue.

Morrelli & Melvin designed 62′ catamaran

Why do we care if the boat pitches? Because pitching increases hull resistance, reduces the efficiency of the rig and underwater foils due to unsteady flow, and causes motion discomfort for the people on the boat. In order to keep the boat from pitch poling (or turning back over front), you need a certain amount of buoyancy forward. On a wave-piercing type bow, this buoyancy and lift are achieved by making the hull fuller down low. On some wave piercing designs, the hull is wider at the waterline than at the deck, especially near the bow. The wider, flatter underwater shape provides lift at high velocities and dampens pitching at all speeds. Other benefits of wave piercing bows are reduced weight and wind age. You can really feel this difference on medium displacement and light weight multihulls. The older designs with tall bows get pushed around in higher wind and sea states whereas the newer wave piercers are easier to steer and maneuver in waves.

Variations of these shapes are now making their way into some larger racing and cruising designs – such as our own, giant Aeroyacht 85′, 110′ and 125′ catamarans. Other boats worth mentioning are the Morrelli Melvin 62′ and 65′, some McConaghy multihulls (from 50-80′) the advanced Neel 47′ and 51′ trimarans and the new range of Sunreef custom catamarans. The faster and longer your boat, the more sense reverse bows make. Today even America’s Cup racing yachts all feature reverse bows and they are definitely part of our boating future.

Boat of the Week: Meet the 443-Foot ‘Sunrise,’ the World’s Largest Open Sport Gigayacht

At 443 feet, this gigayacht will be the largest day boat ever. beyond size, its wave-piercing hull and 24-knot top end are breakthroughs., michael verdon, michael verdon's most recent stories.

Designing a 443-foot day boat sounds like an exercise in madness, or perhaps futility, if the designer ever hopes to find a buyer. But Italian designer Roberto Curto is used to breaking through established norms, even if what lies on the other side is more fantasy than working vessel.

The Genoa studio’s newest project, Sunrise, might seem like one of those impossible dreams, if it didn’t look so damned beautiful. The boat stretches from stern to bow in a gentle arc that emphasizes four football fields’ worth of exterior space, with a large but organic-looking superstructure that hugs the water, rather than jutting upwards across multiple decks towards the sky.

“The idea was to have a big yacht that doesn’t look like a traditional wedding cake,” says Jim Evans, managing director of SuperYachtsMonaco , the agency tasked with finding a buyer for Sunrise. “Because it’s missing all those layers, it doesn’t have a huge amount of interior volume or weight. It’ll have the more traditional uses of an open day boat.”

“I wanted to bring the sport life to gigayachts,” adds Curto. “At the moment, there is nothing this radical.”

The concept is more than a set of drawings displaying a beautiful boat. Curto designed a wave-piercing hull for the bow that actually slides under waves when confronted with big seas, providing stability and speed in rough conditions. “It’s similar to the hulls on some submarines and military vessels,” says Curto. “I have a 34-foot boat that I designed with the same hull and it works fine, so I expect it will work on this larger scale.”

The submerged bow seems like it would actually perform in real-world conditions, thanks to the long, open forefoot on the forward end.

Besides looking cool, the wave-piercing bow actually submerges under water in big seas–similar to some naval vessels–to increase efficiency in rough conditions.  Courtesy Roberto Curto Design

In the images, Sunrise is certainly an open design, but there are no people to show how vast—giga-sized—the spaces really are. The swim platform, for instance, is about 36 feet deep and, thanks to the 66-foot beam, the aft swimming pool is a good 50 feet wide. An outdoor dining table seats 22. On the bow are another large pool, helipad, and even a jet-ski docking area. To get a sense of scale, running four laps along Sunshine’s edges would equal a mile.

The reason why the concept works is that Curto didn’t try to fill the space with dozens of small rooms across five or six decks. Some gigas feel like a maze in a massive hull. Curto, instead, kept the spaces simple, open and zen-like across the yacht.

A massive, atrium-like entrance to the interior, defined by huge glass panels, is connected to the long bow. The main salon has a sculpture shaped like a giant drop of rain splattering on the floor, with open circular panels extending through the decks above, as if it had just fallen from the sky. Round white concentric circles designed into the floor show the drop’s splatter pattern. A few lounges and tables are placed within, but otherwise the space is vast and empty.

On the upper deck is an observation lounge which, apart from the pilothouse, another exterior lounge area, gym, dining area and the staterooms, is pretty much the complete layout. The owner’s suite, like the main salon, is immense, with its own gym and outdoor patio. The tender garage in the lower deck is also enormous, with space for multiple boats and water toys.

The hull design gives Sunrise a top end of 24 knots; Curto is working with an engine builder to create a hybrid electric-diesel propulsion system using azipods at the stern for speed and efficiency gains.

In the end, however, the main impression is the yacht’s elegant, open design, with the subtle curves. “One thing we’ve noticed in the last five years is the growing demand for extra-luxurious exterior spaces,” says Evans. “The exterior needs to be just as exclusive as the interior.”

The deja-vu exterior design includes a second, very large swimming pool on the forward end of the yacht.  Courtesy Roberto Curto Design

Evans would like to see scaled-down versions of the yacht, perhaps 250 or 300 feet, that would have a larger potential pool of buyers. Still, he’s very happy with the design. “If I’d challenged other yacht designers in the beauty parade with a concept like this, they’d come back with something quite conventional, akin to a small cruise ship,” he says. “A lot of clients will be attracted to a design like Sunrise. They’ll really like the sporty lines and the fact that it still looks like a private yacht, despite the giga size.”

For Curto, buyer or not, Sunrise remains an exercise in creativity. “It’s really there to push the limits, to let clients see we can create something different,” he says. “We see it as innovation on the water.”
