Built not only with the comfort of a charter yacht, equipped with all modern luxury features, she is also an adventurous ocean going vessel with two aluminium alloy masts and a strong standing rigging by Christopher John Mitchell, Aes Ltd. The steel hull is built on both vertical and longitudinal frames to ensure stiffness of the yacht under strong sea conditions. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/134110/image/large-6abee86bda4543a94efdfe66d6668cdb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/134110">Her interior styling has classical features and will be executed in clear and white lacquered mahogany wood.

Words cannot begin to flow on the Tempus class without first paying respect to the source of inspiration- the breathtaking J-Class which in just ten years of almost hyperactive development by legends of the sport gave us a fund of yachting imagery to feed every sailor’s soul. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/132440/image/large-89e60744483928781e52a778f935458a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/132440">Rob Humphreys was commissioned by the owner of Arkin Pruva Yachts to resurrect one of the J designs under the provisions of the current J-Class Association rules, staying true to the hull design of one of the eleven designs officially available for ‘development’. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/132441/image/large-6f1ea83f1ac5237a353315beb169a350.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/132441">Work proceeds apace on this project and the accompanying research has been a source of great delight. However, mixed in with the excitement of rediscovering lost values has come the realisation that a pure J is almost too compromised by its history to make it an ideal cruising yacht in today’s world. So the Tempus was born-spiritually close to its forebears but developed in a number of ways to make it more applicable to a modern lifestyle.

The Tempus class by Humphreys Yacht Design and Arkin Pruva Yachts

Daima is a stylish custom-built high performance 37 m (42.5 m LOA) all weather motor sailing yacht in the style of a Turkish Gulet. This is a real 'go anywhere' sailing boat, made for 'real' sailing whilst living luxuriously on board. All the comfort of a motor yacht with the excitement factor of a splendid 920 sq m Genakker and 730 sq m of working sail area. A beautiful looking yacht with the grace you would expect from a traditional craft: elegant and understated on the outside but classy and indulgent on the inside. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/130848/image/large-f9d0a860431ba40ef6d70cf047834bf2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/130848">Daima’s hi-tech rigging and sails allow a performance which far surpasses that of a normal Gulet and, combined with her luxurious interior and superb outfit, lifts this “stand-out” yacht into a classification of her own. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/130849/image/large-ef98d9c64eb17c536025320b1a6eeeef.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/130849"> <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/130850/image/large-6083b8b5d4c57c934531c188a2c71f0a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/130850">Built in Antalya, Turkey by Arkin Pruva Argos Yachts under RINA supervision, Daima has a wood-epoxy construction hull and superstructure. With the exception of some varnished wood parts all surfaces are Awlgrip painted. The combination of polished stainless steel deck parts, varnished wood parts and teak deck add to the classical look of a Gulet. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/130851/image/large-19190ddc2bd5b382bb734885dc4a031e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/130851">Only the highest quality of both European and International equipment and materials were commissioned for use throughout the entire build. The air-conditioned interior is tastefully appointed to the exacting standards of the discerning owner with an eye on beauty, function and luxury down to the smallest detail to allow for 'living aboard' rather than 'staying aboard'. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/130852/image/large-372fb2eb86efae7adc2359012f0d356e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/130852">The comfortable accommodation includes a full-beam master suite, a VIP double guest suite, another double guest suite, and two twin guest suites. The crew quarters, comprising of a Captain’s en suite double cabin and three crew cabins, have also been constructed to a high quality and include a galley for its experienced superyacht chef and a crew mess. Each guest cabin is equipped with a flat screen TV and console to avail of the state-of-the-art entertainment and sound system (over 1,000 films to choose from), together with internet access and ipod point. Each guest suite has its own mini-bar. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/130853/image/large-3e20ed386708d9cc36a69b4472faca7e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/130853">On performance S/Y Daima’s Captain, Stephen Johnson, says "from the time I joined the build of Daima, the question that was always asked was how fast do you think she’s going to go? There was an unknown quantity here as no-one before had tried to put such a big, hi-tech rig on a traditional Gulet shaped hull, although with her full length keel and reasonable ballast ratio, fully battened main and mizzen, carbon/vectran sails and in-boom furling, there was no reason why she should not peform."<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/130854/image/large-01075258da5dd321de2a2740c435e587.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/130854">"However, I could not get over her light air performance. Given a displacement of around 180 tonnes she sails beautifully in light to moderate winds, accelerating easily, and we have maintained 12+ knots 70 degrees off the wind and have seen 14 knots off the wind with the Genakker. Impressive to say the least."<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/130855/image/large-aa757cfa3c4bfb7906d1b1a895b1840c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/130855">"She moves easily under power with her twin C-12 Caterpillar engines, attaining her hull speed of 12.5 knots and cruises easily at 10 knots. The 70 hp Lewmar bowthruster simplifies docking, and the Besenzoni passarelle, at 5 m fully extended, complements the process.""Overall performance for what we like to call a Performance Motor Sailer is 5 star."Arkin Pruva Argos +90 242 259 0159 <a href="mailto:onder@pruvaargos.com?subject=S/Y%20Daima%20on%20SuperYachtTimes.com">onder@pruvaargos.com</a> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.arkinpruva.com">www.arkinpruva.com</a>
