The UAE builder becomes the first shipyard in the Middle East to accept regulated crypto-to-fiat payments.

The Middle East’s leading yacht builder starts the new year in a confident mood following a busy end to 2024, which included the opening of a service centre.

On board Gulf Craft’s new Nomad 101 in Australia, an impressive expedition-style yacht becomes apparent, with a comfortable, functional layout and long range.

The first Gulf Craft model to feature both exterior and interior design by Phathom, the muscular Majesty 111 includes shipyard firsts like a master suite with jacuzzi view, feature staircases topped by a skylounge skylight, and a remarkable six cabins in a 34m flybridge.

Mohammed Alshaali reflects on Gulf Craft’s four decades, growing from an isolated fishing boat start-up to a high-tech, fully integrated operation building yachts from 34-175ft across four brands, with two upcoming Majesty superyachts set to kickstart the company’s fifth decade.

As it celebrates its 40th anniversary, the UAE builder has revealed its second-largest superyacht, which follows the Majesty 175 delivered last year.
