If Jack Dawson and Rose Dewitt Bukater ever got on designer Jay Aberdoni’s 240-feet Day One, they would spend all their time on the bow terrace with a Jacuzzi to soak in, a set of recessed sunbeds to unwind, and a vantage point like no other. This is just one of the ultra-special spaces created on Day One, a breathtaking boat showing that minimalism is indeed wonderful if you know how to ace it. Aberdoni indeed did and brought “dominant minimalism for the nonconformists.”
The yacht looks sleek and stylish owing to low bulwarks and an extensive use of glass that gives it an avant-garde edge, quite literally. The luxury vessel makes it easy to enjoy indoors and the outdoor layout, with utmost ease owing to fully retractable sliding doors.
It only takes a second to feel the sea breeze on Day One’s large alfresco spaces, and in no time, you’re inside escaping the scorching sun. Day One ditches the overdone flamboyance often spotted on luxury yachts and turns the experience about just that—the experience of being at sea.
This is enjoyed by 11 guests who rest in six well-appointed cabins. The lucky owner of this no-frills boat will get an added touch of luxe with a forward-facing cabin featuring an infinity lounge, a terrace, and a Jacuzzi as mentioned above. The ship comes with a helipad, a beach club gym, and spa for the affluent owner and their guests to enjoy. There is also a cinema room for movie nights and a spacious upper deck terrace to indulge in some stargazing.
The upper deck is an open plan area with entertaining additions like a television lounge, bar-style seating, and a dip pool with cozy seating dotting it. The concealed tender garage, when not in use, extends to make an outdoor terrace when at anchor. Day One is soothing on the eyes and something one will take a liking to since day one.
