Update Of Moonen 124 Displacement Yacht Snow White

Recently the hull and superstructure of Moonen's largest-ever yacht, the first 37.80-metre Moonen 124, were transported to it's new annex construction hall in nearby Groot-Ammers.

The transport of the two massive sections was an impressive event for local folk in the generally flat Dutch countryside.

Once both sections were in the 63-metre hall, shipwrights and welders joined the aluminium superstructure, fabricated at Moonen's main yard in 's-Hertogenbosch, to the steel hull, built in Gorinchem.

The principal machinery--main engines and generators--had already been installed so further outfitting could begin immediately.

In this new Groot-Ammers facility, Moonen will build yachts up to 45 metres LOA, beginning with the Moonen 124 to be named Snow White when launched in spring 2009.
