MANA I

Van Oossanen Naval Architects engineered MANA I's hull with their signature fast displacement form, creating a profile that appears to glide rather than push through water. Launched from Mulder Shipyard in 2020, her 36-meter silhouette demonstrates how contemporary yacht design can achieve grace without sacrificing presence. Claydon Reeves shaped her exterior lines to emphasize length over height, stretching her proportions in a way that makes her beam of eight meters feel perfectly integrated rather than imposed. The superstructure flows in unbroken planes from bow to stern, each deck level clearly defined yet connected through carefully angled transitions. Her profile reads as purposeful motion even at anchor. Hollander Yacht Design approached the interior with spatial clarity that mirrors the exterior's confident geometry. Accommodating ten guests across multiple social zones, the layout prioritizes natural light and sight lines that extend the experience of being on the water rather than simply floating above it. Each area connects to the next through deliberate openings that frame views of the surrounding seascape. With a crew of six managing all operational aspects, MANA I operates as both sanctuary and exploration vessel. Her 298 gross tons provide substantial volume while maintaining the agility that Van Oossanen's naval architecture delivers. The combination of Mulder's build quality and this trio of design talents results in a yacht that looks as compelling in motion as she does holding position in a pristine anchorage.
