The vessel represents an advanced evolution of its predecessor, delivered in 2020, and features similar design traits characterized by sleek exterior lines and a powerful vertical bow, complemented by elegant grey and snow-white paintwork.Designed by Studio De Voogt for the exterior and Rémi Tessier for the interior, the new Moonrise incorporates several technological innovations and design improvements.
