H.H. Sheikh Mansour bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of the Dubai Sports Council, unveiled the world’s largest composite production superyacht, the Majesty 175, during its grand debut at Dubai Harbour. This remarkable vessel, manufactured entirely in the UAE by Gulf Craft, a renowned shipbuilder, pushes the boundaries of superyacht production with its lightweight materials, allowing for effortless cruising in shallow waters.
The unveiling ceremony, held in collaboration with the Dubai Department of Tourism & Commerce Marketing, welcomed dignitaries and esteemed officials who had the opportunity to explore the superyacht as it gracefully sailed into the Arabian Gulf. The Majesty 175 showcased exceptional stability and maneuverability, impressing all who witnessed its prowess on the high seas. Notable attendees included Helal Saeed Almarri, Director General of Dubai Tourism; Saeed Hareb, Secretary General of Dubai Sports Council; and Mohammed Alshaali, Chairman of Gulf Craft.

Crafted within Gulf Craft’s state-of-the-art production facility in the UAE, the Majesty 175 successfully underwent rigorous sea trials prior to its global premiere. Soon, this magnificent yacht will embark on voyages across the globe, proudly carrying the UAE flag to prestigious yacht events, marinas, and exotic destinations. By doing so, it will firmly establish the country’s prominent position on the international yachting map.
Helal Saeed Al Marri, Director General of the Dubai Department of Tourism & Commerce Marketing, expressed his confidence in the UAE’s resurgence as one of the world’s safest tourist destinations. This resurgence has significantly contributed to the growth of the yachting tourism sector. With nearly 830 superyacht projects currently underway or ordered worldwide, the Middle East stands out as a robust market for superyachts. The grand premiere of the Majesty 175 in Dubai not only highlights the region’s remarkable potential in the yachting industry but also bolsters confidence in the marine leisure sector, further strengthening the nation’s yachting and pleasure boating industry.
Mohammed Alshaali, Chairman of Gulf Craft, described the Majesty 175 as a masterpiece superyacht that showcases the company’s ability to produce world-class vessels entirely within the UAE. Gulf Craft’s expertise covers every aspect, from design to production. This achievement solidifies Gulf Craft’s position as a global leader in the yachting industry and reinforces the UAE’s status as a premier yachting destination. With several years of dedicated effort, Gulf Craft managed to complete the Majesty 175 in an accelerated timeframe, despite the challenges posed by the pandemic. The world premiere at Dubai Harbour underscores the country’s allure as a comprehensive yachting destination.
Conforming to the specifications outlined by the UK’s Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) for yachts exceeding 500 gross tonnage (GT), the Majesty 175 stretches 55 meters in length with a beam of 9.6 meters and a gross tonnage of 780. Its advanced composite construction, utilizing carbon fiber and vinyl ester, enables the superyacht to effortlessly navigate low-draft areas, requiring a mere 2.05 meters of water. This feature is particularly appealing to marine enthusiasts seeking close access to beaches.
The exterior and interior of the Majesty 175 were meticulously designed by the award-winning Cristiano Gatto Design Studio in Italy, while the naval architecture was expertly crafted by Massimo Gregori of the Yankee Delta Studio. Striking features of this vessel include a 5-meter infinity pool on the forward deck and a versatile sky-lounge that can be transformed into an open sun deck. The pool incorporates a swim-jet system, creating a continuous current of water. The yacht’s well-planned layout comprises seven luxurious staterooms and can accommodate a crew of up to 10 members, with six spacious crew cabins and a private captain’s accommodation.
The Majesty 175 is powered by 175 kW Kohler generators and equipped with two pairs of TRAC fin stabilizers, ensuring a smooth and stable sailing experience. Safety features include a SOLAS rescue boat and an emergency generator. With a top speed of 16.5 knots and a cruising speed of 10 knots, the Majesty 175 has an impressive range of 4,000 nautical miles, making it a transoceanic vessel capable of exploring distant waters.
