– April 20th 2020

Deep Blue, a Botin Partners designed, King Marine built 85′ yacht, has been recently launched, exploring a new chapter in the Maxi racing arena. Deep Blue is destined to fill the gap between custom-built record-breakers such as Comanche 100′, and the 72-footers that are on the smaller scale of the Maxi class such as Bella Mente and Cannonball.

The carefully selected team assembled by Terry Halpin to design and launch Deep Blue included more than 110 people from 11 different nationalities.  Project Manager Micky Costa, with his extensive network, was also an essential part of the project, creating unique parts for this project. Pure Engineering played a big role in delivering the platform’s strength and stiffness while keeping the weight in check.
