The idea combines decades of customer feedback and proven engineering solutions into an immediately realisable solution and - like the gemstone that gives it its name - stands for timeless elegance, durability and excellent craftsmanship. Aruby addresses a market demand for faster availability without any loss of quality.
"With Aruby, we offer a turnkey path to yacht ownership that doesn't require an in-house build team or years of pre-planning, but still guarantees the full dedication of our boutique shipyard," says Sales Director Till von Krause. New Giga for A&R.
Engine compartment on one level
At the heart of the 70-metre concept is a modern diesel-electric propulsion system that is already designed for future generations of sustainable fuels. By using a pod propulsion system and the knowledge gained from minesweeper shipbuilding, Abeking & Rasmussen has achieved exceptionally low noise and vibration levels.
The single-tier engine room is a technical highlight: as the generators are soundproofed on one level, there is significantly more space for living comfort in the rest of the ship. The layout follows the concept of "New Luxury". Spacious owner's suites, two salons and an extensive beach club create a spacious ambience. Volume: 1,770 GT.
Self-service as a new form of luxury
A particular focus is on maximising the autonomy of guests. Thanks to intelligent self-service options, the service can operate extremely discreetly while improving privacy on board. Whether as a floating base for home office or home schooling or as a charter yacht - Aruby adapts flexibly to any lifestyle.
Abeking & Rasmussen has enlisted the services of a well-known studio for the design. Till von Krause: "In recent years, we have developed 58-metre and 78-metre yachts together with Reymond Langton, which were very, very successful. Now we are transferring this concept to modern 70-metre technology with a compact engine room and maximum use of space for the owners."
