OVERVIEW

The vessel, now known as "MASTER," was originally built in 2001 by Kleven in Norway as an Emergency Rescue and Response Vessel (ERRV). After a careful assessment, she was deemed appropriate for a Major Conversion into an exploration yacht and was acquired and taken to Harlingen (The Netherlands) for conversion after purchase.

Built for stability, efficiency and endurance, the original hull features a sturdy, flared bow to enhance safety and smooth handling in heavy seas. The robust construction, comparable to 100m+ yachts, with a wide beam allows for large liquid capacities, extends her autonomy and ensures reliability and efficiency at cruising speeds.

MASTER features a true 360° bridge, offering a remarkably spacious area of 86 square meters.

ICON Yachts is the world’s most experienced shipyard in the conversion of heavy-duty commercial vessels into luxury explorer yachts. A Major Conversion entails repurposing an existing vessel, improving its performance and extending its lifespan.

Lloyds Class reviews and approves all design plans, inspects the construction processes, ensures compliance with safety and regulatory standards, and certifies the vessel once it meets all their requirements (Lloyds Register: ✠100A1 SSC 100A1 Yacht, G6, Mono, ✠ LMC, UMS, ShipRight (ThCM, IHM), Hybrid Power, ECO(*) Certification Polar Code C).

Once the yacht is completed, the shipyard will issue a new builder's certificate stating “Major Conversion by ICON Yachts” and the year.

PROPULSION

The vessels diesel electric propulsion system, consisting of port and starboard Voith eVSPs driven by 5 x Scania with Tier III Exhaust Treatment (Tier IV ready) compliant generators and a 2 MWh battery bank, was chosen to future-proof the vessel and align with modern standards.

Propulsion and hotel power are produced by the 5 x Scania DI-16 generators, each housed in a double-resilient mounted soundproof enclosures.

The use of five generators allows the intelligent onboard Power Management System to activate only the required number of generators based on speed, range and hotel requirements, thereby optimizing energy efficiency.

The 2 MWh battery bank also allows for:

·      Peak Shaving, releasing power to the grid during demand spikes, reducing the need to activate additional generators

·      Silent Operation: eliminating the need to run generators, achieving zero emissions, during anchoring or low overnight hotel load demands

·      Emission-Free Port Operations, enabling quiet, emission-free entry and exit from ports, particularly beneficial for short distance manoeuvring

The eVSP propulsion system uses vertical blades on a rotating disk, allowing instant thrust in any direction. The system also provides stabilisation at zero speed and underway.

eVSP key advantages include:

·      Precise handling providing instant directional control, enhancing maneuverability

·      Efficiency, allowing for optimized generator fuel consumption underway

·      Electric motors ensure quiet operation and low noise and vibration

The bow thruster is a fixed pitch SCHOTTEL 350kW (469hp) with a 1.54m diameter, 4 blade propellor, turning at 328rpm.

HELI DECK

MASTER features a commercially certified Heli Deck, allowing both private and commercial use when the yacht is chartered.

The Heli Deck supports helicopters with a maximum weight of 4.3 t and a D value of 13.7, including models such as the EC145. It is equipped with all essential safety systems, including a concealed foam firefighting system. The vessel is also prepared to accommodate the installation of a refueling unit with a capacity of up to 5m³ of helicopter fuel. Additionally, the helipad doubles as a party deck, with stability calculations made to support crowds of up to 100 people.

Polar Code Certification

MASTER will meet Polar Code Category C requirements, allowing for safe navigation in Polar Regions during summer months in non-ice conditions.

THE TENDERS (Included)

MASTER carries two 11.75m /38’ heavy-duty tenders built by Maritime Partner AS.

·      1 x Open tender: serving as a limo or dive-support vessel.

·      1 x Enclosed tender: Ideal for cold climates and Arctic expeditions.

·      1 x Castoldi/TBD Rescue boat

Originally designed for North Sea rescue operations, the aluminum tenders are built for extreme conditions. With a “mini conversion within a conversion” the original structures were maintained but stripped of all machinery and electronics. Both tenders will be equipped with two new inboard Volvo Penta D4 engines (230 hp each) with joystick control steering, giving each a top speed of up to 37kts.
