Gulf Craft’s flagship Majesty 175 holds a distinction few production superyachts can claim: it is the largest composite-hull vessel of its kind, measuring 55.1 metres with a gross tonnage of 780 GT. That scale, combined with a beam of 9.62 metres, creates an internal volume that rivals steel-hulled yachts ten metres longer, while the composite construction keeps displacement at a comparatively modest 504 tonnes and draft under 2.11 metres for shallow-water access.
Yankee Delta Studio engineered the naval architecture around twin MTU 12V 4000 M63 engines, each producing 2,012 horsepower. Performance tilts decisively toward range over sprint: a cruising speed of 10 knots delivers a 4,000 nautical mile envelope, placing transatlantic passages within reach without a fuel stop. Maximum speed reaches 16.5 knots when the schedule demands it.
Seven en-suite guest staterooms accommodate fourteen, supported by eight crew cabins housing a team of ten. The interior, styled by Cristiano Gatto Design Studio in collaboration with Gulf Craft’s in-house team, emphasises natural light, full-beam master suites, and flexible social spaces across five decks. The exterior profile, also by Cristiano Gatto, balances the yacht’s considerable volume with a sleek, forward-raked superstructure that avoids the box-like silhouette common at this LOA.
With 61,500 litres of fuel capacity and a vertically integrated build process at Gulf Craft’s Umm Al Quwain facility, the Majesty 175 delivers genuine global-range capability from a single-source builder.

Range first, speed second. That is the design brief, and the Majesty 175 honours it completely.
Twin MTU 12V 4000 M63 engines, each producing 2,012 horsepower, drive the yacht to a maximum of 16.5 knots. Cruising speed sits at 10 knots, where the 61,500-litre fuel tanks deliver an envelope of 4,000 nautical miles, enough to cross the Atlantic without stopping. For an owner who wants to move between the Caribbean, the Mediterranean and the Arabian Gulf on their own schedule, that capability is not theoretical; it is the yacht’s reason for being.
Composite construction keeps displacement at 504 tonnes, well below what a steel hull of this length would weigh. The result is a draft of just 2.11 metres, opening anchorages and approaches that would ground most 55-metre yachts. Generator capacity and stabilisation systems are sized for extended ocean passages, not just coastal hops.
Cristiano Gatto’s exterior profile manages the hardest trick at this length: making 780 gross tonnes look purposeful rather than ponderous.
A forward-raked superstructure draws the eye along the hull rather than up through stacked decks. The sheer line is clean and continuous, running from a sharp bow through five deck levels without the visual breaks that often fragment larger yachts. Glass runs in long horizontal bands, giving the profile a contemporary edge while flooding the interior with natural light.
Five decks provide distinct zones for different moods: a sun deck for open-air entertaining, a bridge deck with panoramic views, a main deck for formal dining, and tender storage aft with launch capability for multiple watercraft. The beam of 9.62 metres creates wide side decks and generous foredeck lounging areas. Every exterior space is designed for use, not just appearance.
Fourteen guests across seven staterooms, ten crew across eight cabins. The numbers alone set the Majesty 175 apart from production yachts in her size bracket.
The owner’s suite occupies the most stable section of the hull, running full beam with floor-to-ceiling windows, a private study area and a bathroom that borrows its proportions from a boutique hotel. Six further guest cabins are arranged across the lower and main decks, each with en-suite facilities and the kind of ceiling height that makes guests forget they are below the waterline.
Cristiano Gatto’s interior direction balances warmth with restraint. Natural materials, soft ambient lighting and considered joinery create spaces that feel residential rather than nautical. The main salon spans the full width of the yacht, with a formal dining area forward and a lounge aft that opens through glass doors to the deck. A sky lounge on the bridge deck offers a more relaxed alternative.
Five decks of living space is a rare proposition at any price point, and the Majesty 175 makes each one count.
The sun deck is the social summit: a jacuzzi, bar, dining table and lounging areas arranged with enough separation for different groups to coexist. The bridge deck adds a sky lounge that works equally well for a film evening or an informal lunch with the windows open. At water level, the beach club and swim platform create a private shoreline wherever the yacht anchors.
The galley is sized for professional catering and positioned for efficient service to both the formal dining room and the exterior aft deck. Crew circulation routes are entirely separate from guest areas, an architectural discipline that keeps the yacht running smoothly without visible effort.
Gulf Craft builds the Majesty 175 entirely in-house at its Umm Al Quwain facility, from hull lamination to final fit-out. That vertical integration is both the builder’s competitive advantage and the buyer’s assurance: a single point of accountability for every system aboard.
At 780 GT on a 9.62-metre beam, she is classed for unrestricted navigation. Twin generators sized for the full hotel load, Naiad or equivalent stabilisation at anchor and underway, and a comprehensive electronics suite are standard. The composite hull requires less maintenance than painted steel and is lighter by a significant margin, translating directly into fuel savings over the yacht’s lifetime.
For an owner seeking genuine global-range cruising in a vessel that can be built to specification rather than from a fixed mould, the Majesty 175 offers something the European market does not: a superyacht of this scale delivered from a production line, with the economies and build consistency that implies.
