"Yas" when she was still "Swift 141"
two-and-a-half years ago, being
lifted out of the water by TTS.
|
"Swift141" high and dry, ready
for a complete make-over
|
"Yas" positioned on 20 trestles supported by forty 300T jacks, all of which are part of the TTS-designed skidding system. She was pulled towards the edge of the jetty by 100T strandjacks on many as 18 pulling points to eliminate undue stress being put on any part of her structure.
After re-positioning of the skidding rails, "Yas" is carefully positioned at the edge of the jetty ready for load-out onto the pre-ballasted Mighty Servant 3, which will be used to realise the actual float-off.
|
Safely resting on her 20 trestles, "Yas" is awaiting the weather
before being repositioned for float-off.
|
The Mighty Servant 3 is gently lowering herself and giving
"Yas" her freedom.

|
Super-yacht "Yas" in all her glory. She's a
striking, graceful, 141m long vessel with spectacular external and internal
features, showing outstanding performance with a capacity of reaching speeds up to
26 knots, driven by up-to-the minute green-fuel engines
