"Ptoject Magnitude" was designed in 2009 in collaboration with Oceanco,  when published in early 2010 by Show Boat and Boat International   magazines  it was the first yacht in the world with 

Fold Down Bulkheads Transom 
" The Beach Club"

which was  conceptualised and introduesed  solely by Opalinski Design Studio.  The Youtube   video was released in 2011 and over time it gained  over 9.5M views making it, to this day World's No.1 watched  video of a yacht concept .

Since then this innovative feature  became an industry standard on the global scale . First  in 2015 / 16 manufactuters of smaller boats and yachts started installing it aboard of their product, and when it was well received by discerning clientelle the feature started to go main stream and implemented globally  by large European and US shipyards scaling this feature for large vessels exceeding 40 meters.


Rotational Transom 
"The Beach Club 2.0" 

Observing the evolution and scaling of the Fold down bulheads Transom,  Opalinski realised  that while it is an amazing feature for small to medium size vessels,  as it is being scaled up and implemented on larger custom  yachts it becomes  demanding technologically and problematic from the operational stand point. This is because: to lower and lift large bulheads  requires instalation of massive hydrolic actuators, that are  very heavy,
power hungry and costly,  as well as  pose unnesesary oparational hazards. 

To solve this Issue  Lukasz Opalinski and his team conceptualised and engineered a new, superior  solution for larger vessels starting from 20 meters in lenght.
This revolutionary solution uses vertical axes instead of horisonal. This allows for the bulkheads to be deployed and retracted  in a similiar manner as regular hinged  gate using small electric motors to operate massive and heavy bulkheads.

When first indrodued in December  2020  aboard of "Indah - 120m"  it was notised by  major yachting and terchnology oriented media  and published globally.  Boats International, Yacht International , Robb report  and several others online publications 

The Rotational Transom feature has been
patended and protected internationally P.435916. 
We are now in the process of  licencing procedures with various marine equipment manufactuers and shipyards globally so this feature can be legaly implemented aboard as many single and multiple hull vessels across the industry in coming years.

Features as Fold Down Bulkheads Transom and Rotational Transom while transformative to the industry they are only a small part of large picture approach to design at Opalinski Design  Studio. We are always pushing the bouduaries of what's possible in various  aspects of yachting ,
From funtional - "on demand" expanding avaialble deck space, through  Environmental - electric/hydrogen propulsion, hydrofoiling to motor/sail transformation, to Visual - progressive, elegant styling .

 All in the quest of bringing the full potential in yachting experience while achieving sustanablity and symbiotic relationship with our environemt.
