Majesty 120 Sets Sail


The superyacht is a true masterpiece in her class – both in design and performance and has been completed in record time despite the pandemic

Gulf Craft, one of the world’s premier shipbuilders, has delivered its tri-deck Majesty 120, another luxury superyacht under its flagship ‘Majesty’ brand. 

The 120-feet-long (nearly 37 metres) composite production superyacht offers exceptional design and performance. With a beam of 26.6 ft (8.1 m), it is made of lightweight yet sturdy carbon fibre and vinyl ester. It was fully manufactured at Gulf Craft’s integrated in-house production facility in Umm Al Quwain, UAE.

Announced at the Monaco Yacht Show 2019, the design and build of Majesty 120 was completed in scheduled time despite the challenges of the pandemic while following all safety protocols.

Once again revolutionising the yacht building industry, Gulf Craft’s expert engineering team has created a fully electric system for most major equipment from fin stabilisers to thrusters and steering, thus eliminating the need for hydraulic systems.  In addition to a noise-free ambience, the superyacht requires less maintenance and has reduced chances of mechanical issues, said the company.

Mohammed Hussein Alshaali, Chairman of Gulf Craft, said: “Since we announced Majesty 120 two years ago, we have been focused on creating a true masterpiece in her class – both in her design and performance. Our commitment to innovation, led by a team of in-house professionals, is reflected in Majesty 120, which not only embraces electrical systems but has incorporated unique and flexible design features.”

“Moving to electrically powered systems is aligned with our vision to be the leader in the industry and build revolutionary yachts that transform the future. We are confident that Majesty 120 will set trends as a superyacht suited for marine lifestyle enthusiasts across the world.”

Majesty 120 stands out for its unique design and naval architecture by Gulf Craft’s in-house team. She has a spacious sundeck, 30 per cent larger than other yachts in her class. The superyacht can accommodate guests in her five large staterooms that are designed asymmetrically – marking another first in its design approach.

The interiors of Majesty 120 have exceptional styling and attention to detail. With interiors penned by the Cristiano Gatto Design Studio, the Majesty 120 meets the lifestyle aspirations of yachting enthusiasts with a separate owner cabin and VIP cabin on the lower deck, in addition to a kid-friendly lounge.

Other amenities include a jacuzzi and hybrid beach club that converts into a storage unit for tenders.

The superyacht has a draft of just over 6 ft (two metres), making her ideal for navigating even shallower beaches. Two powerful engines of 2,500 horsepower lend speed to the vessel that will delight marine enthusiasts with its top-notch performance, stability, and manoeuvrability.

Purchased by a prominent Kazakhstani businessman, Majesty 120 set sail for Turkey from the UAE before she explores the Mediterranean waters the rest of the year.

Gulf Craft has over 800 employees across its three facilities in the UAE and the Maldives and has a manufacturing capacity of 200 boats per year. The company has built more than 10,000 boats since its inception in 1982, serving clients around the world. The 2019 AEU Safety Award Winner, Gulf Craft was awarded ‘Best in the Show’ at Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show for its 43.3 m Majesty 140 superyacht.
