VICEM YACHTS SIGNS WITH TWO MORE TOP YACHT INTERIOR DESIGNERS
WETZELS BROWN AND KEN FREIVOKH INTERIOR DESIGNERS FOR THE 32 AND 35 MT VULCAN LINE
Vicem Yachts is  expanding its horizons beyond mahogany into  high-tech composite construction with three new sleek, fast super yachts of  46, 35 and 32 mt: the  Vulcan Line. For V46mt mega-yacht the Turkish yard  signs for interior design works with Art-Line, which has been involved with the 46 meter yacht since its inception.
“We want a reputation as a builder of  light, beautiful and fast hulls” says  Sebahattin Hafizoglu, Vicem Yachts Founder – Chairman of the Board of Directors – “Vicem is entering the super-yacht segment with  serious ambitions and with no compromise/highest quality building materials and technologies that compares favorably to Northern Europe Shipyards.” The super-yacht Vulcan Line can already count on Naval Architect  Frank Mulder for hulls and exteriors and noted interior designs firm Art-Line. “On boats of this size, with such high expectations of performance, the choice of the ‘right  naval architect and top class interior designers is essential to the success of the Vulcan line.  All these yachts will be launched between 2011 and 2012”. Ultimately for Mr Hafizoglu in an industry that is closely dependent on meticulous hands-on labour, Turkish builders provide a tangible advantage. “People are fed up with the variations in quality of the Far East and labour rates in the EU and North America are sky high” he claims, going on to say that “Turkish  shipyards will only get better, marrying high quality design, building and engineering with affordability”.
