Two Americans have commissioned 50m Series megayachts from Christensen Shipyards, the same series which has seen the likes of Odessa (pictured), Casino Royale, and, most recently, Remember When delivered.
Code-named Perfect Pursuit and Deputy Dog, the all-fiberglass yachts will feature the same layout, with five guest staterooms in addition to the owner’s suite. All woodwork and stonework will be handled by Christensen’s in-house departments. Outside, they’ll feature the raised forward full-shear bulwark and vertical pilothouse windows that debuted on Casino Royale. (Prior to Casino Royale, the superyachts in the series incorporated swept-back pilothouse windows.)
Given that Christensen has built several yachts in this series so far, each with MTU 12V 4000 Series engines, it anticipates the top speed for each to be 17½ knots and the cruise speed to be 12 knots. Range at the latter speed should be 4,000 nautical miles.
Perfect Pursuit and Deputy Dog will also fly the American flag.
