Green Light for 141m Staysail Schooner “Dream Symphony”

On 9 February a major meeting was convened at the elegant Amstel Hotel in Amsterdam. The purpose was to review proposals prepared by the design and technical teams appointed to develop unique proposals for the world’s largest sailing yacht “Dream Symphony”. Following excellent wind tunnel test results and approval of the exciting and quite unique concepts developed by the design team under the direction of Valeriy Stepanenko, the project has now received a full and enthusiastic go-ahead to move forward to construction.

Dream Ship Victory’s facilities in Turkey, will be ready to start laying up the hull in the summer of 2011 with a planned launch date of 2016.

The sleek and graceful styling has been created by the Ken Freivokh Design team, and in addition to unique wood building technology proposed by the Dykstra & Partners Naval Architects team, the project will boast excellent green credentials through use of carefully selected tropical woods as a totally renewable resource.
