MASTER OF
THE SEAS
We do things a bit differently. A luxury expedition
yacht born from an innovative crossover of yachting
and shipbuilding technology, the SeaXplorer is unlike
any yacht on the market. You’ll understand when you
meet the creative, driven minds in our SeaXplorer team.
Their maverick thinking is part of our Damen DNA,
it’s the entrepreneurial spirit that led to our first Navy
submarine, our first ice-breaking Coast Guard ship, our
first Amels superyacht and many other innovations.
Daring to be different has made us the diverse global
shipbuilder that we are today. It’s who we are. We can’t
help but be different. If you recognise that feeling, the
SeaXplorer 105 is made for you.

LA DATCHA Whether in tropical or polar destinations around the world, LA DATCHA stands out with her re-
markable colour scheme and large volume, six-deck superstructure – full of outdoor deck space.
Heliskiing is a big part of the LA DATCHA experience – with trips to the Kuril
Islands, the Kamchatka peninsula, Chutotka and Alaska – and for that two heli-
copters are essential. LA DATCHA’s unique helicopter solution perfectly meets the
Owner’s brief for this. There is the fully certified primary helideck, a standby deck
for the second helicopter and both aircraft can fit in the below-deck hangar. She
promises adventure without any compromise on luxury.

theme can also be recalled

incorporated into the
interiors which draw the
natural elements in with
references to water, air,
earth, wind and fire.”

AUTONOMY
far from infrastructure or into zero-discharge zones such as marine natural reserves, the SeaXplorer’s
massive storage capacity keeps you autonomous and free to explore. The alternative is a complex logistical
puzzle of barges, support ships and shoreside container transport that reduces your spontaneity, privacy
and social distance.
