Converted navy frigate 141Swift first wetting - Boat Design Forums




I found some construction progress photos here:
From frigate to luxury gigayacht : Composites World

Quote:
Originally a Royal Netherlands Navy S-class steel frigate (similar to but smaller than a destroyer), it was sold (circa. 1997-1998) to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and eventually became the subject of a luxury yacht conversion pilot project to showcase the emirate of Abu Dhabi’s development of a world-class yacht construction and service facility, now known as Abu Dhabi Mar. At 141m/463 ft in length, with an expected cruise speed of 25 knots, the Swift 141 should be one of the world’s fastest gigayachts, thanks to its long, narrow frigate hull and a massive refit, including what is believed to be the largest yacht superstructure ever built with composites.
What it looked like prior to the conversion.
Warship converted to mega luxury yacht



Abu Dhabi Mar - MEGA YACHT CONCEPTS

Quote:
“Joel Bretecher and myself have been working on developing a style with maximum purity, with an obvious heritage from automotive design, based on Joel’s former experience at Pininfarina”, says Stirling International Design (SDI)’s naval architect, Thibaut Tincelin. Naval designer, Joel Bretecher, has first hand experience in the automotive industry, taking part in the design of several Ferrari cars.
