Enzo Manca’s Luxury Yacht UAE One: A Symphony of Innovation, Sustainability and Maximum Privacy

In 2020, Italian designer Enzo Manca had a chance encounter with a sheikh from the Arab Emirates that led to the creation of UAE One, a luxury yacht that embodies extravagance, innovation, and sustainability.

The primary challenge in creating this vessel was developing a strong foundation to support its many luxurious features. The yacht is an impressive 140 meters long, 40 meters high, and 28 meters wide. It has 35 cabins for crew members, 14 mini apartments, meeting rooms, and a press room. Advanced navigation systems and stabilization technology ensure smooth and safe journeys even through rough seas.

Manca’s dedication to sustainability is evident in the incorporation of renewable energy sources and a wastewater treatment plant onboard. Maximum privacy is also a top priority, with facilities for guests and delegations to embark and disembark privately. This project took two years to complete, thanks in part to the financial support of the sheikh.

As the final touches are added to the interior and shared spaces, UAE One is set to become the official vessel of the Arab country. Manca has set new standards for yacht construction and communication, making each vessel a unique representation of the nation it belongs to.
