Oceanco Launches New 364-Foot-Long Superyacht
New superyacht launches, like the 364-footer Oceanco just launched, never get old. Yes, superyachts are getting bigger and bigger. And this one (that will simply be called Y726 until her official delivery to her experienced owner later this year) is not the only really big yacht—i.e. measuring over 350-feet-long—that will be launched in the Netherlands this year. In fact, superyachts in the same size range have emerged from sheds in Germany and Italy this year as well.
With an overall length of 364-feet, beam of over 52-feet, and displacement of 4,550 gross tons, Y726 is one of the largest yachts by volume Oceanco has ever built. The exterior design is by Espen Øino International. The interior is by Mark Berryman Design. And naval architecture was developed by Lateral in partnership with Oceanco's in-house team and the owner's longtime yachting representative, Dan Jackson.

But, since each new launch is a one-of-a-kind marvel of design, engineering, and customization. And since each new launch also takes thousands of skilled craftsman, shipbuilders and technology experts to build. I'm always impressed and inspired by the way they all work together to build something so big, and complicated, and beautiful, and yes, wonderfully expensive too.
'Led by the owner's vision, Y726 exemplifies what's possible when all of the hundreds of participants are aligned in the determined execution of that vision,' says A.J. Anderson, Chief Executive Officer of Wright Maritime Group. 'As we enter the final stages, we're proud to play a part in delivering a truly special yacht to her owner.'
"This project is the result of bold design ambition and robust engineering,' says Lateral's Program Director, Lee Archer. 'Through close collaboration with Oceanco and the projects design partners, Y726 stands as a testament not only to engineering enabling design at the highest level, but also to the power of collaboration as a catalyst for excellence,".

'From the outset, Y726 has benefitted from a deeply collaborative, trusting and positive spirit. She is set to be a standout addition to the Oceanco fleet, and we're grateful for the strong partnerships with our Co-makers, design team and the owner's team that brought this vision to life,' adds Oceanco's Project Director, Edske Smit.
