RIBELLE

Launched 2017, Ribelle embodies superyacht racing performance with all the comforts for world cruising.

Her construction is entirely of carbon fibre and high-performance core materials. A prominent design feature is the close interaction between the large cockpit and saloon.

Along with the virtually all-glass canopy, this open style provides a bright, contemporary ambience to complement a lightweight Remi Tessier interior.

Meeting the minds behind MMYD.

If you ask our founder, Malcolm, what matters most, he’ll tell you it’s about crafting something that not only performs exceptionally, but also stands the test of time.

His approach is simple: client-centred design where performance underpins every decision. Malcolm has championed the use of glass as both a design feature and structural element, pushing the boundaries of its integration in ways that have become an MMYD signature.

From first meeting to delivery, every step with MMYD is carefully managed to ensure your vision becomes a reality. From function to form, our team guides you through the whole design process:

Concept → Bid Package → Yard Selection → Technical Development → Build → Sea Trials → Delivery

MMYD's focus on aesthetics and exterior proportions extends to every element.

The wheel is where the helmsman connects with the yacht; ergonomically designed for comfort during long passages, aesthetically crafted to complement the yacht's character, and structurally engineered for reliability.

AESTHETIC ENGINEERING

It’s not just about beautiful lines or clever engineering. It’s about both, working together.

Every design decision at MMYD is driven by performance, with aesthetics that enhance function.

Reflecting on B.Neos, developed with Benetti Yachts & FM Architettura d'Interni.

A 40m expression of evolved simplicity and purposeful design. Capturing the essential purity and balanced proportions of a sailing yacht, seamlessly integrated with the superior comfort of a motor yacht.

We’re delighted to present B.Neos, the newest hybrid addition to Benetti Yachts fleet, designed by MMYD, with interiors by FM Architettura d'Interni.

B.Neos delivers a purpose-driven experience, with a sleek, low-profile silhouette that avoids ostentation in favour of a timeless elegance. Perfectly complemented by interiors that favour simplicity over complexity.

First renders of the 44-metre Nautor Swan Alloy 44, the first aluminium Swan supermaxi, have been revealed!

Designed by MMYD, the Swan Alloy 44 represents a significant milestone for the Finnish shipyard. The vessel combines customisation potential, stiffness-to-weight advantages and improved lifecycle serviceability, while maintaining Swan’s distinctive proportions and profile.

“Alloy gives us new freedom without losing the Swan silhouette, elegance in line, purpose in detail, and a sailing experience that feels effortless.” - Malcolm McKeon.
