The ultimate man cave? Inside 66m superyacht shadow boat Hodor

• Superyachts

This cavernous support vessel can carry up to five tenders, as well as jet skis, quad bikes, helicopters and submarines

What do you do when your 87m Feadship can’t fit all your toys on board? Build a 66m shadow boat to carry them of course!

Launched this week by Spanish yard Astilleros Armón and designed by multihull specialist Incat Crowther, Hodor is the latest member of a growing global fleet of superyacht support vessels.

The owner clearly has a need for speed, as the pictures above show an impressive array of rapid toys, from a 56ft chase boat packing four Seven Marine outboards on the transom to what looks like a Fountain 32 Thundercat.

That’s just the tip of the iceberg, however, as Hodor can also carry a further three tenders, a submarine and a Eurocopter 145, not to mention jet skis and quad bikes galore.

Hodor is no slouch either, with a top speed of 22.5 knots – enough to overtake the mothership so that the 20-strong crew can set up all the toys in the next secluded anchorage via the four built-in davits.

When the owner and his chums tire of charging around at top speed, they can explore underwater, as Hodor has a fully-equipped dive store, complete with Nitrox and O2 compression facilities.

VESSEL REVIEW | Hodor – Super yacht support vessel and reception space

Spain’s Astilleros Armón has recently launched and delivered the 66-metre composite catamaran shadow vessel Hodor , designed by Incat Crowther.

Shadow vessels are a new breed of workboats. They are designed to blend in amongst super yachts with their smooth lines and gleaming chromed steel, however their purpose is to reduce crew numbers on the main yacht, allowing room for more guests, whilst also offloading other tasks that interfere with the enjoyment of being on a motor yacht.

Hodor offers large amounts of deck and storage space, flexibility, stability, efficiency and capability. The design offers a stable platform for the safe transfer of guests from helicopter to the mothership, via tenders.

Hodor allows for more luxury space to be available onboard the mothership while offering access to toys on demand. It also gives the crew a separate space to manage the operation and maintenance. The vessel can also act as a reception space for visiting guests, transferring them from helicopters to tenders.

Hodor has been completely customised to carry the specific equipment and supplies to support and enhance the owner’s mothership capabilities. The design uses the robust engineering of hulls proven in offshore platform service, such as the Seacor “Crewzer”-class and Incat Crowther’s 70-metre fast crewboat class. The hull incorporates a reverse bow, a deadweight capacity of 240 tonnes and a low propeller draught of 3.1 metres.

The platform accommodates an astounding number of toys, facilities and personnel. This includes five tenders (the largest being 17 metres in length), jet skis, quad bikes, a submarine garage, a helipad, a large complement of crew, staff and support equipment.

The tenders and submarine are flexibly located and can be launched from the upper and main decks. On the upper deck via the two large knuckle boom cranes, and on the main deck via twin beam cranes. A primary feature of the vessel is the the aft lifting platform for the 17-metre chase boat. A portable davit on the fore deck facilitates the launch and recovery of the vessels ROV and can also be used for additional jet ski storage.

The submarine garage is housed in the centre of Hodor . The launching system for this uses air casters to transfer it from the garage to the beam cranes for launching.

Incat Crowther has a number of vessels with fast launch and recovery systems – these existing proven systems were scaled up to the suitable size to allow the chase boat to be launched easily and quickly between the catamaran hulls.

The helipad is a fully-certified and CAP437 compliant for helicopters of six tonnes and up to D-value of 16 metres including the Eurocopter EC145. A large reception room, finished to a yacht standard, sits forward of the helipad, allowing guests to be transferred in comfort between helicopters and tenders.

Incat Crowther found that the catamaran platform lent itself well for helicopter support operations given the increased deck area, in particular the wide beam, and good level of stability.

The port hull shell door, provided for guest access is finished to a yacht standard and directly connected to the guest lounge via a guest staircase. The starboard hull shell door is reserved for crew operations. There is also water access via two stern platforms, should weather conditions require stern boarding.

Dive equipment is fully integrated with compressors, nitrox and oxygen facilities, as well as a hospital with decompression chamber.

Specialised spaces are dedicated for fresh and frozen food storage, additional storage for the mother vessel, waste treatment and general and spares stores.

Propulsion is provided by two main engines, giving a max speed of 22.5 knots, or long-range cruising at 14 knots up to 5,500 nautical miles. The catamaran platform allows fuel savings of around 40 per cent, affording the full vessel range with only 160,000 litres of diesel fuel. The vessel’s tankage supplies toys and vehicles with jet fuel, petrol and diesel from dedicated bunker stations.

A complement of 20 crew and staff are comfortably accommodated in a mix of double and twin ILO-compliant staterooms, each with ensuite bathrooms.

The wheelhouse is situated with excellent visibility. Access to electronics systems is simplified with incorporation of a walk-around main helm console and a dedicated MEC.

Fitted with an exhaust cleaning SCR system for IMO Tier 3 and EPA Tier 4 compliance, greenhouse gas emissions are significantly reduced, allowing the design to be more environmentally friendly.

The inherent stability of the catamaran does not require gyro or roll stabilisers whilst at rest. When underway, the vessel pitching motions are reduced by twin Humphree active interceptors on the stern.

A twin anchoring system is provided, which, combined with the widely spaced twin hulls, provides reduced motions whilst at anchor.

NOTABLE FEATURES OF HODOR: ~Upper deck Owner’s private lounge ~Scuba dive equipment and hospital with decompression chamber ~Extensive water toys selection ~Submarine ~Choice of 5 tenders ~Certified helipad with forward reception room ~Environmentally friendly with IMO Tier 3 and EPA Tier 4 compliance ~Twin anchoring system to reduce movement while at anchor ~Air conditioning ~Wi-Fi

Both hulls have a lower deck swim platform leading to the main deck, where a side passageway flows down both sides and the central area is semi-open for the launch and retrieval of water toys and land-based motorised vehicles.

Above, the upper deck exterior is slightly lower that the upper deck interiors, and there is plenty of space for storing water toys amidships.

The interior styling has a fresh and contemporary feel throughout, with white-painted walls and wooden panelling complemented by broad windows and eye-catching pops of colour in ochre and blue. The main salon is an excellent example of this laid-back styling, where guests will find a square 'formal' dining table to seat eight guests and a massive widescreen TV taking up the space on the nearby wall. A corner sofa curves away from the dining area and follows the wall to provide a comfortable open area and cosy nook for relaxing together or alone. The main deck aft has indoor/outdoor storage for water toys, with the amidships section dedicated to the guest and crew accommodation.

On the upper deck, the helm controls are placed forward and have excellent views of the surroundings. The Owner’s lounge is situated behind, with 180° views of the aft.

A new and highly sophisticated range of vessel

The “ Hodor ” joins a highly sophisticated new range of vessels , called “ shadow boats “, built to provide support for luxury yachts . Like the auxiliary vessels used by naval fleets to transport fuel, food, ammunition, medicine and spare parts, shadow boats are tasked with providing the most complete experience to passengers  on the yacht.

Shadow boats make it possible to complement the usual levels of luxury  on the mother ship with exciting extras  such as underwater exploration , helicopter trips  and outings   in a whole range of floating devices —from humble canoes to powerful water-skis, motor boats and even ATV vehicles. In this way, the shadow boat can act as a sort of floating toybox .

ATV y Quads                                                                                                                                                ©Clint Jenkins photography.

The first examplesv of this new breed of boat were developed in the 1990s , but early versions were more like unattractive floating warehouses. In recent years, however the trend has been to create a new type of mega-yacht , rivalling the mother ship in luxuryv and aesthetic appeal . There are currently only about twenty units in servicev around the world, but the numbers are growing and in the future, it is expected that most super yachts will boast their own support vessel. The “ Hodor ” is the first significant launch  of a Shadow Boat in the world using a Catamaran hull  (“Shadow Cat”),  which gives her a much greater volume. As well as housing a wide range of extra artefacts and means of transport, shadow boats also offer other benefits : they can provide space for fuel supplies , a repair workshop , waste storage  and additional security .

Coordinates of Elektrostal in decimal degrees

Coordinates of elektrostal in degrees and decimal minutes, utm coordinates of elektrostal, geographic coordinate systems.

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
