DRAGON Yacht – Incredible $98 Million Superyacht

DRAGON yacht is the masterpiece built by Columbus Yachts , a brand of Palumbo Superyachts. She then became the flagship vessel for the shipyard’s 80-meter model. 

She was started on spec at Palumbo Superyachts in Naples. When Palumbo acquired the ISA shipyard in Ancona, her hull was barged from Naples to the Adriatic in July 2017 for finishing. 

The contractual schedule to build this magnificent yacht was tight, but Palumbo’s 50-plus years of experience helped reduce the build time.

Twenty months later, the exceptional superyacht was launched and delivered to its owner.

DRAGON yacht interior

DRAGON’s interior design was penned by Francesco Guida , an internationally-awarded Italian yacht design and engineering studio.

She features modern, panoramic glass windows that weigh close to two tonnes and are supported solely by the beams and stiffeners of the superstructure without additional columns or pillars.

Her interior style exudes an opulent vibe with brushed oak joinery, soft bronze or gold accents, and creamy travertine marble. 

The owner supplied items for her interior such as vintage furniture and Persian rugs, which add a personal touch. 

DRAGON yacht also features custom-made furniture and fittings, including the oak and travertine dining table by Giorgetti in the main salon and the Barrovier & Toso chandelier that hangs above it. 

The result of interior speaks of a sophisticated ambiance but is also inviting and cozy.

Forgotten Icon: The Disappearing Art of Dragon Boat Building

dragon yacht building ltd

Danish author Isak Dinesen once said that the cure for anything is salt water: sweat, tears or the sea. The Dragon Boat Festival manages to combine all three.

This is one of Hong Kong’s top festivals – and it’s easy to understand why. Drums that once beat to keep demons away now keep taut dragon boat racing muscles in line. Rice dumplings were once thrown into the water to keep fish away and stop them devouring the drowned body of beloved poet Qū Yuán (278 BC); today, they are enjoyed with dark soy sauce and sugar. Hong Kong has managed to blend traditional Chinese history with modern competitiveness and a pinch of colonial influence to make the Dragon Boat Festival something unique.

Dragon Boat fever grips the city at the beginning of June. Races proliferate around Hong Kong’s beaches and harbours. Cultural pride, honour and team spirit are driven into the South China Sea as each athlete plunges their paddle in perfect harmony. Drummers build up the crowd’s excitement as sweat, tears and sea come together to propel the dragons forward.

With athletes on the front line, it’s easy to forget the people behind the dragons themselves, where Hong Kong’s history as an important harbour played just as much a role in building the dragon boat into the recognisable model we see today.

“No dragon boat was ever identical,” says Chan Ki, the owner of Sun Hing Shipyard. “The sifu  (master) would imbue each boat with his own special skills. A little improvement here, a little change there.”

As a twelve-year-old working in his father’s Shau Kei Wan shipyard in the 1950s, Chan remembers craftsmen building dragon boats for the Stanley races. There were 12-foot-long teak planks stacked high, heavy and thick. Wood carvings and dust filled the salty air, while tung oil sat in barrels, waiting to coat the wood.

As with fishing boats, dragon boats were made from teak, which is adept at handling moisture. Dragon boats stay out of the water for most of the year, and they shrink slightly on dry land. But when they are plunged back into the sea, the joints swell up, which strengthens the boat and closes any gaps.

“Building a dragon boat always involves a big division of labour,” says Chan. Different craftsmen would work on various parts. Wooden furniture makers carved the dragon’s head and tail. Ship builders worked on the body. Every part of the boat is designed with purpose. The keel in the centre forms the dragon’s back. The belly is W-shaped to suction onto the water and stabilise the boat. The iron wood stiffener is tied together with rattan ropes to keep the dragon ready to race.

Traditionally, boat making in Hong Kong was limited to fishing boats. The expertise of fishermen and villagers was a more rudimentary form of woodwork. When the British arrived and set up huge dockyards to build and maintain their ships, they brought Western shipbuilding techniques with them. “My father would hire those workers from the Western docks to work on the dragon boats as their skills were more refined,” says Chan.

Every dragon boat comes to life with the keel in the centre forming the dragon’s back. The belly is W-shaped to suction onto the water and stabilise the boat; the iron wood stiffener is tied together with rattan ropes to keep the dragon ready to take flight.

Chan’s father specialised in medium-sized boats of about 38 feet, whereas large dragon boats such as those used in the Aberdeen Dragon Boat Race can measure up to 90 feet and carry 48 paddlers.

Most traditional wooden dragon boats are placed into the water two to three weeks before racing commences. In Aberdeen, athletes intensively train in medium-sized dragon boats in the months leading up to the Tuen Ng Festival, then several teams combine to race in one long dragon boat on the actual day.

Nowadays, it is almost impossible to find new wooden dragon boats made in Hong Kong. With the decline of local fisheries and the ever increasing price of raw materials and manual labour, most of the dragon boats now used in Hong Kong are built in the Panyu district of Guangzhou.

Chan knew that to survive in this business, he needed to diversify. He worked at his father’s shipyard until he was 24 years old, studying English and completing high school in the afternoon. When a company called Supercraft bought his father’s shipyard he went to work for them. “They were British and specialised in private yacht building,” he says. “I was the store keeper there, which meant I had to learn about every single component of a ship; I was aware of every detail.”

Chan is now an expert in leisure yacht maintenance. He and his family are examples of how Hong Kong’s shipbuilders have had to reinvent themselves over time. “My two sons work in yacht sales now, following in our ship building footsteps in a different way,” he says. But ship building itself is dying out. “The high cost of wood” — up to HK$3000 HKD for a single 12-foot plank — “and labour means that even the classic junk boats that everyone enjoys on the weekends are no longer being built. The ones you see now are the last generation,” says Chan.

So as we watch athletes battle it out on the big day, remember the ancestry behind the curve of the dragon’s back. It is just as much a part of the city’s heritage as its legends and myths.

Please note the following section was published in 2018. Dates and times are no longer accurate.

Zolima recommends Known officially as Tuen Ng, this year’s Dragon Boat Festival falls on June 18. Here are some of our favourite celebrations from around the city.

Tai O Dragon Boat Water Parade 30 May 2018, 8:00-14:00 Tai O , Lantau Island

In villages like Tai O on Lantau, traditional Tuen Ng festivities still have a ritualistic significance. The Tai O dragon boats sleep in a shed next to the Yeung Hau Temple, which is dedicated to Hau Wong, a god associated with the sea. Each year the eyes are painted onto the dragon heads, bringing them to life and transforming them into actual dragons. The statue of the god is taken out of the temple during the festival and is placed on a boat that is pulled along by a dragon boat as part of the village’s dragon boat parade. The gods from the three other temples in Tai O are also taken on the parade, which has been a local custom for over a century. Rather than race, the boats of the four fishermen’s associations parade around to ask the gods to bestow good fortune, favourable weather and safety at sea.

To get there, take the MTR to Tung Chung Station exit B, then take New Lantao Bus number 11 to Tai O; or take a ferry from Central Pier 6 to Mui Wo, then take New Lantao Bus number 1 to Tai O.

Hong Kong Dragon Boat Carnival & Beer Fest 22-24 June 2018, all day Central Harbourfront

With food trucks serving local street food favourites and international fare, a beer fest, game booths and live music, this party is definitely not only about the dragon boats. Sponsored by Hong Kong Tourism Board and the Hong Kong China Dragon Boat Association, this international CCB Asia race spans the distance between Central Pier 10 and Citic Tower. Thousands participate in three days of intense racing which you can watch from both sides of the harbour. With Hong Kong’s famous skyline in the background and dragon boats drums pounding into the waves of the harbour, that cold beer will taste extra good.

To get there, take the MTR to Admiralty, Central or Hong Kong stations and follow signs to the waterfront.

Aberdeen Dragon Boat Race 18 June 2018, 8:00-18:00 Aberdeen Promenade

The Aberdeen dragon boat race is one of the oldest in Hong Kong, spanning over a century since local fishermen started the tradition. Aberdeen is known for having the longest dragon boats for racing, with 50 paddlers per boat. The flag ceremony to bless the boats and the athletes’ safety as well as the water splashing camaraderie is a special sight. If you want to watch from the bamboo scaffolding seats, you can book an admission ticket with the Aberdeen Dragon Boat Race Association .  

To get there, take the MTR to Ap Lei Chau station and take the frequent ferry across the harbour to Aberdeen.

Sha Tin Dragon Boat Race 18 Ju ne 2018, 8:00-13:00 Along the Shing Mung River, Sha Tin

Sha Tin now hosts one of the biggest races in the city. Sponsored by the Sha Tin Sports Association , participants spend the morning charging down the Shing Mun River between Banyan Bridge and Sha Yin Bridge, leaving you the entire afternoon to explore the cycle tracks, temples, museums and other sites nearby.

To get there, take the MTR to Sha Tin station and follow signs to the riverfront.

International Dragon Boat Championships in Stanley 18 June 2018, 8:00-17:00 Stanley Main Beach

The Stanley Dragon Boat Association and Sun Life sponsors one of the most prominent dragon boat races in the world. About 200 local and international teams fight to win in this relatively short race of 270m. The high intensity racing draws crowds of over 30,000 spectators, ensuring a party atmosphere on Stanley’s beaches.

To get there, take buses 6, 6A, 6X or 260 from the Exchange Square bus terminus, or bus 973 from Silvercord in Tsim Sha Tsui.

Lamma International Dragon Boat Races 13 May 2018, 9:00-18:00 Tai Wan To Beach, Lamma Island.

Now celebrating its 11th anniversary, the Lamma 500 International Dragon Boat Festival is one of the most challenging and competitive races because of its deep, fast-water course, set against the stunning tropical backdrop of one of the city’s highest peaks, Mount Stenhouse. A beachside party follows the action.

To get there, take a ferry to Yung Shue Wan from Central Pier 4. The walk to the beach from the pier takes around 20 minutes.

Friday 8 July 2022

Canary wharf businesses take to the water at dragon boat race and raise £22,850 for wateraid – 08.07.22.

A splashing £22,850 was raised in a Dragon Boat Race for WaterAid to help bring clean water to everyone, everywhere. On Thursday 7 th July at the South Dock of Canary Wharf, WaterAid, in collaboration with Canary Wharf Group, hosted the brand-new event based on a Chinese tradition from over 2000 years ago.

15 teams from companies in the vicinity of Canary Wharf competed in a series of time-clocked races. They took to the water between 12 and 5pm (following safety briefings and instructions, of course!) in competition to gain the title of the champions of Canary Wharf.

Many companies, including KPMG, Clausematch, Paysafe and WallStreetDocs took part. The very talon-ted Neon Bandits team which included members from local dragon boat clubs in the area came out victorious, with Canary Wharf Group’s security team and Clausematch earning their 2 nd and 3 rd place titles respectively.

Special awards for the best dressed competitors also went to Clausematch whose aquatic themed costumes stood out from the crowd and Yondr Group who were crowned the top fundraising team bringing an impressive £4,962 to the cause.

Corinne Stone, Senior Community and Events Officer for WaterAid, said:  “It’s easy for us to take water for granted – whether we’re drinking it, washing with it, or even racing dragon boats on it! But the reality is that 771 million people around the world don’t have clean water close to home. We’re proud to have brought together people of all ages and abilities for this event and based on the turnout and fundraising efforts from our fellow local businesses it was not only a brilliant team day out for all involved, but one that will have a real impact.”

Lucie Moore, Associate Director, Arts & Events at Canary Wharf Group, said:

“The Dragon Boat race is an incredible day where our office community come together to battle it out in a show of speed and determination, have fun with their colleagues and most importantly, raise money for charity.  We’re very proud of everyone who turned up to compete, donate and support, contributing to making a real impact for WaterAid’s life changing work around the world.”

Kim-Joy Hewlett, spectator and star of Great British Bake Off 2018, said: “I came down to support my brother Kenneth who is part of the Neon Bandits team. I didn’t know he was into Dragon Boat Racing before so thought I’d come down to watch him raise money for a good cause. It’s been a lovely day in the sunshine!”

Emma Kempton, Global Head of Customer Success at Clausematch, who took part in the race commented: “I spotted this event was happening near our offices and I knew immediately that we must enter a team. The Clausematch team was really excited to take on a new challenge of Dragon Boat Racing, we are a super competitive bunch and were happy to give this our best shot so far as this is our first time. Delighted that we could raise money for WaterAid and raise awareness and contribute to making a lasting difference reaching people around the world with clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene.”

WaterAid is dedicated to making a lasting difference by reaching people around the world with clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene. Globally, one in ten people lack access to clean water and a staggering one in four have nowhere decent and private to go to the toilet. Every day, around 800 children die from diarrhoeal diseases caused by a lack of these basic facilities.  

To further this mission the event is set to become an annual fixture. If you’re feeling like you’ve missed out and can see yourself and your colleagues competing in next year’s race, register your interest ASAP to compete in WaterAid’s Dragon Boat Race 2023 via this form .

Stalinist High-rise Residential Building in Kotelniki in the Dusk

Stalinist High-rise Residential Building in Kotelniki in the Dusk

Night view of the illuminated Stalinist high-rise residential building on Kotelnicheskaya embankment from the opposite Kosmodamianskaya embankment of Moskva (Moscow) River in the summer dusk. It is one of the well-known Seven Sisters laid down by the order of Stalin in 1947. The main 176 meter (577 ft) tall tower was laid down in the area where small Yauza river joins the main river of the city, Moskva (Moscow) River and was built to be facing the Moscow Kremlin. The high-rise building in Kotelniki was completed in 1952 and incorporated with a 9-story apartment block facing Moskva River, designed by the same architects in 1938 and completed in 1940. As all Stalin skyscrapers, the building was topped with a spire and Soviet star with hammer and sickle, symbols of the former USSR. Apartments in the building were granted to the Soviet elite, academicians, professors, writers, sportsmen, and others.
