How Do They Make a Yacht Float? Let’s Find Out on the Production Line!

There are two kinds of people in this world. First, there are those who just go along in life without wondering about much of anything. Without stressing very much, these people simply use things as they come to them. For example, this type of person might just stick a key in the ignition in the morning and turn it on without wondering how the car works in order to get to the destination.

On the other hand, though, we have people who wonder about just about everything. These folks have minds that can’t help but jump from topic to topic, trying to figure just about everything out.

For example, a person in this category would hop aboard something like a yacht to have a good time. However, they would probably spend a good portion of that time trying to figure out how this boat came together and how exactly it’s floating. At the end of the day, I think that most people who have gone onboard a boat have tried to figure out exactly how it stays afloat in the water. After all, it’s incredibly heavy and it’s something that our minds definitely need time to wrap around.

So how exactly does one take something that is much bigger than a house and make it float on top of the water? Well, this time, we get to see a little bit of the behind-the-scenes on how something like that happens. When joining in with a yacht production line, we get a little bit of a better idea of how these monstrosities are able to tough out the seas

The video below from the crew at the Heavy Machinery YouTube channel gives us an inside look at everything from top to bottom that makes a yacht tough and durable while also being a luxurious ride.

Project Triton is a 164-foot superyacht. The exterior is inspired by the style of classic cars of the 40s and 50s. Project Triton accommodates 10 people and can reach a maximum speed of 15 knots. It was designed and engineered by the Dutch shipbuilding company, Heesen Yachts.
