Against the backdrop of Gulf Craft’s flagship shipyard, the first hull of the award-winning Majesty 100 Terrace slipped proudly into her owner’s hands in the second week of July. The occasion marks more than a usual yacht delivery for its UAE-based superyacht shipyard; it’s the start of the discovery of the world of yachting for a family of first-time yacht owners.
The hand-over ceremony gathered shipyard craftsmen, designers and the owner’s family for a moment of quiet pride. From her gleaming composite hull to her immaculate interior design, developed by Phathom Studio, the Majesty 100 Terrace stands as a testament to Gulf Craft’s ability to take a concept, revealed less than a year ago, and turn it into a fully realised superyacht in record time.
A defining feature of the superyacht is the owner’s private terrace, a raised bow lounge with 270-degree vistas and the kind of privacy usually reserved for 40-metre yachts, is perfect for sunrise coffees or starlit dinners.
“We visited a host of yachts from other yards, but the Majesty 100 Terrace immediately set herself apart,” the owner remarked at the hand-over. “Finding a five-stateroom layout with this much volume and elegance in a 32-metre yacht was a surprise, something I would only expect on considerably larger vessels. The private terrace convinced us entirely; it offers the privacy we wanted while keeping the sea always within reach. Majesty was the clear choice for our family.”
“We recognised a clear gap in the 100-foot segment: most yachts simply don’t deliver complete privacy for their owners,” said Erwin Bamps, Gulf Craft’s Group CEO. “By introducing a dedicated Owner’s Terrace connected to the owner’s stateroom – an amenity normally reserved for yachts over 140ft – we’ve transferred a true larger superyacht privilege into a more agile 100ft platform. It’s a tangible example of how Majesty turns bold ideas into real benefits on board.”
Boasting a five-stateroom layout with a main deck owner’s suite, two double staterooms and two twins on the lower deck, the vessel offers the owner and his guests the spacious comfort of a luxurious accommodation with stunning sea views.
At the touch of a button, the aft cockpit widens by nearly 20 per cent thanks to fold-down cockpit balconies, transforming into an open-air lounge ideal for family gatherings or entertaining friends.
Secure, full-beam side decks flow to a generous beach platform, allowing direct access to the sea and to launch water toys with ease.
The yacht’s shallow draft unlocks access to secluded bays that larger vessels can only admire from afar. Whether the itinerary calls for long distance voyages, meandering around Mediterranean coves or long stays in the Indian Ocean atolls, the yacht’s design ensures every anchorage feels like a private retreat.
As the Majesty 100 Terrace set course for her maiden family voyage, applause rippled across the dock – recognition that true innovation is measured not only in engineering, but in the memories a yacht will create.
