With this unit, Turkish Soyaslan opens its Dionysos series including vessels ranging from 35 to 40 m and featuring unique ergonomics and universal accessibility
The Dionysos 35 was announced early in 2024, and the first unit hit the water in August 2026 and was christened Lointaine. The exterior and overall style were designed by Istanbul-based Calm Design Engineering, а за морскую архитектуру и концепцию в целом отвечала команда из подразделения Soyaslan Design.
The Lointaine’s exterior stands out for rugged design, generous glazing and forward-facing observation windows. The displacement hull with a length of 35 m, a beam of 9 m and a draft of 2.2 m is of steel, while the superstructure is of aluminium. The internal volume is 328 GT, while the passenger capacity is 10-12 guests and a crew of 6-10.
The yacht was conceived as accessible for wheelchair users, as well as for “people with different abilities and people with diverse mobility needs".
For this reason, all the guest corridors and walkways have been extended to at least one metre, while the doorways ensure seamless movement throughout the yacht.
Another standout feature is the availability of three lifts on board, which is rare for a yacht of this size. The main lift has an area of two square metres and services all four decks. In a matter of seconds, it can deliver you from the guest cabins below to the sundeck equipped with a lounge, a bar with a Dj booth, sunpads and sport equipment.
The second lift connects the main deck with the aft platform that serves as a beach area by the water. The third lift is meant for emergencies and connects the sundeck and the main deck.
The bridge deck is dedicated to the owner: the area of 70 sq. m is home to a private lounge, a bedroom, a dressing room and his-and-hers bathrooms.
One should also mention the generous 6 sq.m study with a balcony on the main deck and forward-facing panoramic windows offering amazing views. With twin diesel Cummins QSM11-M engines with a total power of 1,204 hp, the vessel can reach a speed of 12.5 knots and has a range of 3,450 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 10 knots. Four Humphree stabilisers will make the vessel comfortable in any weather.
After the first trials, Can Soyaslan, the yard’s naval architect and managing director, said the following: “Our initial technical observations show that she is in complete alignment with our design parameters”.
