GEAR PARADISE

The SeaXplorer 77’s aft configuration offers a broad range of luxury toys as well as expedition fun, protected from the elements. Customise the aft section to carry the toys, tenders and equipment that inspire you. Proven platform – Modular solutions – Tailored outcome.

THE TRUE EXPLORER DIFFERENCE

“Almost by definition, the world’s most pristine places can only be accessed by sea. There are no airports, no roads, there’s really no significant infrastructure of any kind. So you need the sea to get there. And when you get there, you need a platform to run the mission. You need the tools to make complex things happen in remote places – that’s the underlying mission of any expedition yacht.”

Rob McCallum, Founder EYOS Expeditions,
our operational design partner in the creation of the SeaXplorer

LIFESTYLE IN NATURE

EXPEDITION EXCELLENCE

Safe landings

Operate your aircraft all season from your SeaXplorer’s completely self-sufficient floating airfield.

      Helicopter hangar
    
      Touching down safely is just the start of your SeaXplorer’s mastery of helicopter operations

      Ice Class
    
      Designed for polar operations including retractable stabilisers

      Autonomy
    
      Ocean-going technology and huge stores for journeys in isolation

Whether landing in remote areas or in the south of France, the SeaXplorer 77 takes helicopter safety for you, your family and guests very seriously. The fully certified helideck is suitable for fast and reliable twin-engine helicopters such as the AW109 GrandNew (pictured) or ACH 145 – your flying tenders for scouting, exploring and even rescue scenarios.

Helideck strengthened for maximum take-off weight of 4,000 kg and D Value 13 or fast and reliable twin-engine helicopters such as the AW109 GrandNew pictured).
Fully certified helideck for safe landings – night, day and underway in a wider weather window; operations permitted during charter and commercial use
Weathertight below-deck hangar with hydraulic lift system
Dedicated fuel room with 15 cubic-metre tank (3,900 US gallons / 23,500 pounds) Jet A1 aviation fuel (total approx. 50 hours flight time; total more than 7,000 nautical miles flight range); fuel pump skid, fuel re-cycling function to clean and prevent degradation of the helicopter fuel; EX space with dedicated fire extinguishing system
Cabin for pilots and aviation engineer

Heading to the polar zones doesn’t need to mean leaving your comfort zone. SeaXplorer expedition yachting means taking the safety, reliability and performance you expect from your yacht right to the edges of the world.

The SeaXplorer complies with the mandatory IMO Polar Code category C requirements – protecting the safety of you and your guests with safe operations in pack ice concentration up to 70 percent. We optimised the naval architecture for a wide-range of ice conditions by testing the SeaXplorer model in ice laboratories and applying Damen Research Laboratory’s experience including heavy duty coast guard vessels and ice-breaking polar research ships.

You’ve probably noticed that the SeaXplorer is very sizable for her 76.9-metre length (252 ft) compared to conventional yachts. There’s a lot going on across her generous 14-metre beam (46 ft) and towering six decks (reflected in her 2,550 Gross Tonnage volume). She’s big, because that’s what it takes to make an explorer truly capable. She’s self-sufficient in isolation – no need to return to port early, no need for logistical support from a shoreside travelling circus.

40 DAYS WITHOUT PORT CALL

You may never find yourself visiting the Tank Deck stores. But whether you are sailing into remote zones 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.

Helideck configurations

Why limit your helideck to helicopter operations? Stow your helicopter safely below deck and enjoy a fantastic lounge and party space.

LUXURY INTERIOR INSPIRATION

Create a custom interior with your choice of designer: a home from the tropics to the polar regions, a home for weekend getaways and festive get-togethers as well as for epic missions of discovery.
