About Horus Motorjacht

Horus ass eng Motorjacht, déi fir privat Croisièrten mat Gäscht entworf gouf. D'Jacht mëst 49,95 Meter an der Gesamtlängt, mat enger Breet vun 9,95 Meter. De Rumpf an den Iwwerbau sinn aus Aluminium, wat d'Schëff liicht hält. En dieselelektresche Hybridsystem mat zwee Azipods reduzéiert d'Emissiounen a verbessert d'Manövréierbarkeet. De Beräich vum Besëtzer enthält eng Suite iwwer zwee Decker mat enger privater Terrass. Véier Gäschtkabinne bezéien sech op déi véier Elementer Äerd, Waasser, Loft a Feier. Zousätzlech sinn e Schwämmswee, e Jacuzzi, eng Spa, en Hammam an e Fitnessraum virgesinn.

Production Technology
Organic forms are the foundation of the design. Fluid lines give the yacht a dynamic appearance. Large windows increase the interior spaciousness. The interior features wide spaces to prioritize guest comfort. The yacht owner's private areas include a cabin with a wide view on the upper deck, an office, and a terrace on the main deck. The hull and superstructure will be made of aluminum, ensuring the yacht's lightness. Thanks to the innovative and eco-friendly diesel-electric propulsion system, cruising is done with low emissions.
Design Challenge
The main challenge of the project was to design a diesel-electric propulsion yacht under 500 gross tons and 50 meters long. An innovative general layout plan was developed to ensure sufficient space for technical areas while maximizing guest comfort. The coherence between exterior and interior designs reflecting the defined concept played a significant role in the project's design.
Research
The main research focus of the project has been to design an environmentally friendly and comfortable yacht. Innovative technologies were researched, and among systems currently feasible, the most suitable one was chosen for the project. The hull form design involved studying semi-displacement yacht forms, with efforts made to integrate a bulb for the semi-displacement form.
Inspiration
The yacht's concept is heavily influenced by Horus's eye and the four basic elements; earth, water, air, and fire. These elements, fundamental in both Western and some Eastern philosophies, symbolize balance across physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual realms. While cultural symbols for these elements vary, the core idea is consistent. The yacht's interior and exterior designs integrate these elements, using organic forms to emphasize nature.
Project Duration
The project design started in Istanbul in January 2024 and compilated in May 2024.
Operation Flow
Electricity stored in the batteries provides an eco-friendly and quiet cruising experience in zero-emission mode (at low cruising speed). Diesel generators produce the necessary electricity. The propulsion system, powered by two azipods, enhances maneuverability and ensures fuel efficiency. Fin stabilizers have been used to elevate cruising comfort to the highest level.
