Gulf Craft has come prepared to the 27th edition of the Dubai International Boat Show with a fleet of 12 vessels, among them a new range of solar-powered Nomad yachts.

The British Naval Architect Andrew Wolstenholme designed the hulls of the Nomad series, while the interior and exterior were designed in-house by Gulf Craft. Created with adventurous seafarers in mind, the Nomad series features semi-displacement hybrid hulls designed to withstand difficult sea conditions and travel long distances. 

The yacht Nomad 95 SUV and the other yachts in the series boast increased stability and fuel-efficiency, due to the use of lighter and stronger advance composites during the building process. Additionally, the reliance on solar-powered energy is a feature that Gulf Craft will be offering for all of its yachts in the future, in an effort to reduce its carbon footprint.
