200-Foot Fast Crew Platform — Modern Explorer Yacht
200 ft (≈ 61 m) · Fast Crew / Hauler Platform · Fast & Long-Range
A long, fast hauler platform — the length and volume for owner and guest decks, and the shape for genuine speed and range.
An enormous open deck with a heavy crane and a helipad — a sportfisher, tenders, jet-skis, a submarine and toys, all aboard.
Cross oceans, then sprint between cruising grounds — a fast hauler hull carries the fuel and the pace to do both.
A striking, contemporary explorer profile — glass-walled owner terraces stacked above a purposeful working hull.
A fast hauler platform is the ultimate blank canvas — the deck to carry everything, the speed to arrive first, and the volume to live large.
Standard capability is built into the platform; optional systems are engineered in during build or conversion.
The Yacht Channel · Project Comet — the fast-crew explorer concept
Project Comet re-imagines the fast hauler platform as a striking modern explorer yacht — stacked glass owner terraces forward, a vast teak toy deck aft under a heavy crane, and a helipad amidships.
Built new or converted from a fast hauler hull, the platform delivers speed, deck space and range with owner-standard comfort. In outline, the scope includes:
The design profile and the general arrangement — the owner's deck, the main-deck guest accommodation, and the tender & toy deck.
