FIVE OCEANS: The Second Yacht Support 53 Launched by Damen Yachting

Damen Yachting has officially launched its latest Yacht Support YS5302: the second design from the YS53 series. Visually striking and technically brilliant, she showcases the Dutch yard’s experience and expertise, as she is set to embark on some truly ambitious explorations.

Named FIVE OCEANS, Damen’s new 53m Yacht Support was unveiled to the industry for the first time, featuring a unique colour scheme with a striking sky-blue hull. Visually, this design choice closely aligns with the ambitious programme this vessel is set to undertake, celebrating the connection to the oceans.

Rob Dolling, Founder & CEO at VERPEKA DOLLING Superyachts, assisted the Owner with the sale, project-managed the build on the Owner’s side and will manage the vessel’s future operation.

Dolling commented: ‘This new, next generation Yacht Support platform is very well thought out and engineered, presenting the perfect platform for the ambitious global plans the Owner has for FIVE OCEANS. All our requests and changes, some admittedly quite elaborate, were always well received and seamlessly integrated with precision into the impressive end result.’

FIVE OCEANS can accommodate eight guests and 10 crew members plus the Captain, with all elements of her build overseen by Damen Yachting and her interior design receiving input from her experienced Owner.

Up to this point, details on FIVE OCEANS have been kept tightly under wraps; however, her Owner Tommy Allen has recently shared an insight into his plans for the vessel. Allen is the Founder and Director of Five Oceans Global Solutions, dedicated to marine exploration and cutting-edge technology to help preserve the marine environment.

Allen commented: ‘You can sleep on it, fly off of it and move it. For us the Yacht Support is a platform that enables us to do all the incredible things we wanted to do.’

Two decades of successful Yacht Support experience have been channelled into the design of FIVE OCEANS, highlighting a comprehensive understanding of yacht operations, global exploration lifestyles and outstanding technical solutions.

Jan van Hogerwou, Commercial Executive at Damen Yachting, commented: ‘We are proud to be launching this very special 53-metre Yacht Support today. YS53 FIVE OCEANS will be used to research life below the surface of our oceans, a topic and cause central to Mr. Allen’s operations and an important vision that we are honoured to be contributing to with this Yacht Support platform. Seeing her out in the open and ready for the final stages of her build before her delivery just a couple of months from now is the start of something truly exciting.’
