Malcolm McKeon 780

[bigbird]

The sailing superyacht is always evolving, and this 78m ‘mega sloop’ is the incredible result of many months of research and development by the MMYD team.
 
Designed for cruising with a lifting keel and a square top mainsail, the fully automated sailing systems avoid any human contact with load bearing sheets. This flush-decked superyacht also features an array of innovative lifestyle elements.


 
A five-stateroom layout, with crew accommodation for up to 14, includes an impressive 105sq.m owner’s apartment positioned aft with its own saloon and dining area.  This apartment also has direct access to the large, single level, aft swim platform  which, with its folding bulwarks, has a deck area of over 100sq.m.
 
Full height hull windows and a glass aft bulkhead provide an impressive panoramic connection to the sea.


 
The lazarette is positioned amidships for improved crew access and yacht operations. The flush foredeck has opening sections that either fold away or lower to reveal a sunken and fully protected 30sq.m cockpit, with glass screens that can be raised or retracted.
 
Other features include a 7.5m swimming pool, gym and spa.
