In a continuation of our Contracting Division's record of new and innovating projects, we are proud to present the Contracting: Marine division. With over 20 years of professional audio video installations, our staff was eager to expand into audio/video/marine integration. The M/Y TAKE 5, completed in late 2009, demonstrates the pairing of advanced marine electronics with a shipwide automated entertainment system. The first of it's type, the Take 5 delivers navigation, music, radar, high definition media, and much more to the entire ship, at the press of a touchscreen.
The M/Y Take 5 is a Nordhavn 76 semi-custom Yacht, hull #7615. Nordhavn specializes in semi-custom yachts and considering the client was Sound
Image Founder Ross Ritto, nobody was suprised when the TAKE 5 set several new benchmarks for Nordhavns; it is the first-ever twin-engine,
dry-stack exhaust Nordhavn; in addition, it is the first all-LED lit Nordhavn, a concept that has taken hold with future Nordhavns.
