Yacht Support 53 (04) is a bold expression of functionality fused with high-performance design—an exceptional 53-metre vessel purpose-built by Damen Yachting to redefine the role of support yachts in the modern superyacht fleet. As the fourth hull in the acclaimed Yacht Support 53 series, she exemplifies rugged capability, intelligent design, and unwavering commitment to extending the boundaries of luxury exploration. With the same naval engineering pedigree that underpins the Amels Limited Editions, this vessel delivers a platform for serious adventure, robust logistics, and extraordinary operational versatility.
Her profile is athletic and assertive—defined by a long, clean foredeck, commercial-grade hull, and striking geometric lines that evoke both power and precision. Constructed with a steel hull and aluminium superstructure, Yacht Support 53 (04) is built to withstand the rigours of open-ocean travel, while her 19-knot top speed and long-range capabilities ensure seamless support across transoceanic passages. Whether shadowing a mothership through the South China Sea or leading expeditions into polar waters, she offers a combination of speed, stamina, and seamless integration that few vessels of her class can match.
Inside, her design is highly adaptable—purpose-driven with crew efficiency, technical performance, and mission readiness at its core. She accommodates up to 16 staff, pilots, expedition leaders, or specialists, and features extensive storage and launch capacity for toys, tenders, submersibles, helicopters, and humanitarian aid. Every space aboard Yacht Support 53 (04) is engineered for optimal workflow, from her heavy-duty deck cranes and climate-controlled hangars to her state-of-the-art dive center and workshop facilities.
Yet she is far from utilitarian alone. Damen Yachting has elevated her with discreet touches of refinement—durable yet stylish materials, ergonomic layouts, and spacious crew accommodations that ensure comfort during long voyages. Her helideck and expansive cargo deck allow for operations typically reserved for much larger vessels, offering freedom and flexibility without compromise.
Yacht Support 53 (04) is not just a support vessel; she is an enabler of ambition—ready to go where the mothership cannot, to carry what others won’t, and to provide unwavering support in the world’s most remote and demanding environments. She is the ultimate expression of capability, crafted for those who see exploration not as a luxury, but as a calling.
