Owners’ vision

The Owners’ vision and Design Brief is the main guideline for any project. The translation of the Owners’ ideas and wishes is what custom yacht building is all about. The Design Brief is transferred into a Design Document, which is the guideline for the project manager and the team as well as a benchmark tool to check milestones during the design and build. To translate the Owners’ ideas into a custom sailing yacht is a team effort. This team starts with the Owner, the Naval Architect and the designer. Each member of the team has a specific task and responsibility.

Translating owners’ vision

One of the early and most important stages in the process of building a custom yacht is to transform the ideas of the Owners, the lines of the Naval Architect and the design of the Interior Stylist into information that can be used for construction. Each new yacht constructed at Vitters advances on the technology and sailing performance of our previous yachts, providing constant progression and innovation opportunities.
