Boasting a large swim platform with BBQ, expansive cockpit, aft galley and saloon layout connected through a rear hopper windows and doors, the 530 Grand Sedan is an entertainers delight. Along with full walk-around decks and high hand rails for optimal safety, the pilothouse features two helm seats and an open lounge. But it’s the lower deck accommodation that sets the 530 Grand Sedan apart and its three double cabins layout; a full-beam midships master suite featuring separate shower and head, a double forward guest suite with an adjacent large bathroom, and a third cabin with twin bunks.

Project: Integrity 90 Flybridge

Dubai boat builder Integrity after the presentation of the 55 Flybridge in 2008, continues to upgrade by showing details for a 90 Flybridge super yacht model expected to be launched in the fall of this year. The 90 Flybridge is Integrity second model and will also be its flagship at 90 feet. Offering modern stream lined looks outside, with the latest comfort innovations like the forward c-shaped settee, hard top on the flybridge, and full view windows for the owners cabin the 90 Flybridge seems ready to compete with more renowned long standing brands. Lower deck accommodation is a classic layout with four cabins all with private heads. Full beam owners cabin, VIP cabin to fore, and two guest cabins in between. The aft part is dedicated to a crew lobby with 2 cabins, separate head and shower room, l-shaped settee, and direct engine room access. Living area is also a classic layout plan with a c-shaped saloon upon entrance, a dining table for 8, separate galley, helm station and c-shaped settee for guests during passageways. Hull shape is planning, with twin propulsion and direct shafts. Engines and speeds have not been announced, but by the looks and concept I would estimate performance of around 30 knots.

New Model: Integrity 55 Flybridge

Dubai builder Integrity Yachts presents its 55 Flybridge launched in the fall of 2008. An interesting motor yacht which competes in a highly battled market segment size. The Integrity 55 Flybridge comes where luxury growth was at a massive rate in recent years, so seeing builders with a good product from the Middle East is just the result of an always increasing boating population. The Integrity 55 is a nice design offering the recent conventional layout for boats this size, that of a main deck reserved for the saloon, dining, galley and a lower deck for the accommodation. Lower deck surprises, offering in its 16 metre plus length a 3 double cabin 3 head layout, of which two en suites for the owner and VIP cabin, with the third being a mix between a day head and third cabin usage. Should be among the smaller yachts in this size to offer a three cabin and head layout, without loosing the much requested full beam owners cabin and the big view windows. Performance wise the 55 Flybridge has a top speed of 31 knots and a cruising of 28 knots with the big twin Volvo D12-800 option. None the less this an interesting offer from a Dubai builder, showing that they are not just letting the renowned brands take over there market, but already to compete on an international level with a high quality product.
