Mengi Yay Yachting, which has become a brand in custom yacht manufacturing with its production approach that perfectly implements customer demands and prioritizes user comfort, started mass production by increasing the Virtus model, which was launched as 44 meters in 2019, to 47 meters.
After delivering the 44-meter-long first Virtus hull to the buyer, the company started the production of the three 47-meter-long hulls of the model and sold two of them. The third hull of the series was offered for sale through the Fraser company. Planning to deliver the first and second hulls of the 47-meter Virtus series in 2022, Mengi Yay Yachting aims to deliver the third hull in 2023.
The first body of the Virtus 47 series can accommodate up to 12 people. The second and third hulls of the series can accommodate up to 10 people with 4+1 cabin layout. The yachts built in the 47-meter-long series are 8.80 meters wide. The boats can reach a top speed of 14.5 knots and have a cruising speed of 12 knots.
The exterior design of the 44 and 47 models of the Virtus series was realized by VYD Studio. Two hulls of the 47 series were designed by Turkish company Red Yacht Design, while the interior design of the third hull is by Italian designer Leonardo Santi.
Launched in 2019, the 44-meter Virtus, the first boat of the series, received an award in the over 40-meter concept category at The International Yacht & Aviation Awards. She was also nominated for an award in the category she participated in at the 2020 Boat International World Superyacht Awards.
Mengi Yacht Yachting, which continues to manufacture customized boats as well as mass production, delivered a 47-meter gulet in May and a 42-meter custom-made sailboat in June.
The brand, which is currently continuing the production of Virtus series yachts, has also started the construction of a 42-meter motor yacht, which is custom-designed and made of steel-aluminum material.
