Ten upcoming superyacht deliveries to look out for

This year has seen its fair share of spectacular superyacht projects – including Abeking & Rasmussen 's 118.2-metre flagship Liva O and Frei re 's 111.9-metre Renaissance (now one of the most expensive charter yachts on the market). But as 2023 draws to a close, there are still a few new superyachts to look forward to. 

From the highly confidential Project Icecap to Tecnomar's recent, radical debut of This Is It , BOAT takes a peek at what's yet to officially emerge from the shed...

Builder: Heesen Length: 58.5m

Ultra G is one of Heesen's most powerful projects yet. With a propulsion package that totals 22,000 horsepower – including four water jets – she can reach an impressive 37 knots in light load conditions. A “sport fisherman in yacht disguise”, Ultra G 's custom design draws on inspiration from two previous sportfishing models built by Heesen in the nineties and features a fighting chair and storage for 40 rods. She's also equipped with a custom Vanquish tender.

Project Jag

Builder: Lürssen Length: 122m

Commissioned by an experienced client as a replacement for his 96-metre, Project Jag is one of the largest superyachts currently under construction (and the owner's third Lürssen). The project bears a number of the same design signatures as his former yachts, including an elongated bowsprit and plenty of al fresco deck space. Exteriors were designed by Nuvolari Lenard while the interiors – courtesy of Reymond Langton – are described as a “beautiful, bespoke homage to the owner's lifestyle”. There will be two staff for every guest on board.

Luminance  

Builder: Lürssen Length: 145m

Another powerful-looking Lürssen, Luminance 's classic raked bow and high, brooding superstructure were photographed when she embarked on her sea trials in April. Construction on the mammoth project began in 2018 – but Luminance has since been kept tightly under wraps. Her exterior is known to be Espen Øino -designed, while her interiors have been styled by Francois Zuretti . Once delivered, she'll be the seventh largest Lürssen on the water.

Builder: Moonen Length: 33.9m

A take on the contemporary gentleman's yacht, the Moonen 110 sees René van der Velden and Diana Yacht Design team up once more, having previously worked on the Dutch shipyard's Martinique series. She also takes cues from previous models Moonen 84 and 97. London-based Studio Indigo is behind the yacht's interiors, with "a sweeping spiral staircase using fluted natural timbers" sitting at the heart of the design.

Builder: Heesen     Length: 67m

Sparta is based on the yard’s 66-metre Project Avanti – first presented at the Monaco Yacht Show in 2018, the sporty, low-profile design caught the eye of its commissioning owner. Last spotted heading out to sea trials, the 1,200GT superyacht is Heesen's largest steel construction to date and has been styled inside and out by British studio Winch Design . Her interiors are said to follow an elemental theme with different sections dedicated to water, earth and air.

Project Icecap

Builder: Lürssen Length: 107m

When she was revealed last summer at Lürssen’s Wolgast yard, it was clear that Project Icecap was shaping up to be a very capable explorer yacht. With an axe-style bow and the superstructure well forward, the yacht should punch safely through big seas, while offering big cargo-carrying capacity on the open aft deck. Owner’s rep Moran Yacht & Ship described the boat as "diesel-electric powered", while an ice-classed hull, heli-hangar and forward observation lounge are also on the spec sheet.

Builder: Rossinavi Length: 59.4m

Rossinavi's first ever explorer yacht, Akula was rolled out of the shed in June sporting a striking scarlet hull by Gian Paolo Nari . Once delivered, she'll support "marine research activities and philanthropic projects" with her variety of diving equipment, custom open-air observation deck and two six-metre containers which act as transportable science labs. Fitted with diesel-electric propulsion, Akula also has "optimised fuel consumption" for a lower environmental impact during long periods of time at sea.

The pool isn’t the only cool thing about Project Arwen, of course. Commissioned by an American technology billionaire, the superyacht is the product of true international collaboration. U.S. design firm Píndaros penned the exterior and interior, with help from French studio Champeau Wilde and British designer Andy Waugh. Dutch outfit Azure spearheaded the naval architecture and Dörries will oversee construction at its facilities in Bremerhaven, Germany. The end result will be a striking vessel that showcases top-notch German engineering.

With an incredible interior volume of 4,950 GT, Arwen offers a huge amount of space onboard and a laundry list of luxury amenities. A multi-level spiral staircase allows guests to explore a gigantic living area that spans more than 15,000 square feet. At the center of the vessel lies an expansive main saloon that exudes grandeur with ceilings that soar to nearly 20 feet and an abundance of plush seating.

Described as a “haven of entertainment” by Dörries, Arwen has numerous dining locations indoors and out, multiple bars, and several relaxation spots. In addition, the yacht is equipped with a helipad for an H135 chopper, an indoor and outdoor cinema, a beach club, a hair and beauty salon, and a wellness area with a gym, spa, and sauna.

Bells and whistles aside, Arwen should perform well on the high seas. Powered by two CAT engines, the yacht can hit 15 knots at full tilt and cover 5,000 nautical miles at 12 knots.

Arwen is currently under construction and is expected to hit the water by October 2026.

5 New Superyachts to Look Out for in 2022

With the high demand for luxury vessels leading to a record-breaking number of new superyachts under construction, 2022 is looking to be a year full of boat debuts. With many projects set to reach important milestones, we are expecting lots of news from all the major shipyards. Here are 5 of the most exciting superyachts to look out for in 2022.

Feadship 1010

At 118m long, project 1010 interestingly marks Feadship’s largest vessel to date. Since the project’s announcement, the renowned shipbuilder is working towards a 2022 delivery. October 2020 saw the vessel hit the water for the first time when it was first launched in the Netherlands, but 2022 is when completion and delivery are scheduled. Although very little is known about the details of the superyacht, we expect to hear more as we enter the new year.

Oceanco Y721

Set to become the third 100+m sailing yacht in 2022 is Oceanco’s Y721. She will take Black Pearl’s title of the second-longest sailing yacht in the global fleet. When delivered, there will only be three sailing yachts measuring over 100m, with the biggest being Nobiskrug’s 142m Sailing Yacht A. Reportedly commissioned by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, Y721 is the longest yacht ever built in the Netherlands. As well as this, it is also Oceanco’s largest-ever build. 

Heesen Cosmos

After her Spring 2022 delivery, Heesen’s 80m superyacht Cosmos will be the biggest and fastest all-aluminium superyacht in the world. This is due to her maximum speed of 30 knots and 1,700GT. Cosmos features an exterior crafted by  Winch Design , which comprises clean lines, a sporty look and extensive use of glass, achieving a timeless profile. Expect to see her undertaking North Sea trials in early 2022 ahead of her delivery.

Lurssen Northern Star

Amongst the numerous projects under construction at Lurssen is Northern Star, a 107m explorer superyacht. Once delivered, she will be used to explore the farthest reaches of the globe. Northern Star (previously named Project Icecap) is a diesel-electric hybrid that accommodates up to 20 guests in 10 staterooms. She sports a rugged design by  Salt Ship Design and is due for delivery in 2022.

Amels Custom 78

With a gross tonnage of 2,850, once the Custom Amels 78m delivery is complete, she will be Amels’ largest vessel to date in terms of GT. The superyacht features exterior and interior design by Espen Øino and Zuretti Interior, respectively. Øino has stated it is “a unique project” which features a spacious, open-top deck, large aft pool, and wide side decks. She accommodates 14 guests in total whilst also housing 26 crew. The superyacht was recently spotted during her sea trials in September, ahead of her delivery in 2022.

Exclusive: Launch of new Lürssen 146m superyacht OPERA

• Share this on Facebook
• Share this on X
• Share via Email

By Nina Done   19 September 2022

The newest addition to the prestigious Lürssen fleet has just been launched from their Bremen facilities in Germany. The majestic 146m (479ft) superyacht OPERA was unveiled this morning, where onlookers were wowed by her vast proportions. 

As ever, details about this Lürssen superyacht remain shrouded in secrecy. Her exterior styling comes from the boards of Terence Disdale Design, featuring elegant lines and floor-to-ceiling windows to maximise natural light and create wide vistas to provide a harmonious balance with her surroundings.

Throughout the build the megayacht’s specifications and amenities have been kept a closely guarded secret, but pictures reveal she will have a helipad on the foredeck, as well as a large main deck swimming pool and expansive beach club. 

It is expected that her delivery will take place in early 2023, although it is not expected that motor yacht OPERA will be available for charter upon delivery. To discover Lürssen vessels that are currently for rental, take a look at the range of Lürssen yachts available to charter .

ROYAL HUISMAN TO BUILD WORLD’S LARGEST SLOOP

Anyone familiar with the superyacht industry is accustomed to grand descriptions of the exceptional nature of new projects. So, when a project of such a revolutionary nature as this sloop comes along, it is a challenge to find fresh words to truly illustrate the vision and ambition behind it. We will simply let the story of Royal Huisman’s Project 410 speak for itself.

A challenging and inspiring brief As a very experienced owner, the client sought to create a leading-edge project that would be head-turning, arresting and iconic. And yet … it should provide all the safety features, comforts, and luxury of a mega yacht.

Frers Design and Wetzels Brown teamed up to present the concept that was selected by the owner to meet this challenging brief. Mani Frers created an innovative sloop with a revolutionary combination of naval architecture, clever use of space and structures and stunning exterior design, while Gill Brown’s thrilling and unique interiors almost literally transport her guests into a New World. After an intense year of development, the designs are finalized and the exciting preparations for the construction process begin.

85m New World Sloop, Royal Huisman Project 410

A ‘revolutionary’ step into the future for superyachts.

Project 410 will be a true sailor’s yacht, ready to sail in a matter of minutes and capable of sailing very fast, in comfort, to make the most of that long waterline – better equipped to explore the world. She will be exciting to sail, even in light airs, with an impressive ability to build and increase apparent wind speed.

This is an Eco-friendly project, too, aiming for structural recyclability and incorporating green energy, quiet operation, and silent mode sailing. Wherever possible, the yacht should employ recycled materials or simple, low-impact materials crafted to create exceptional effects. Wherever the technology permits – or can be adapted to permit – RH410 will be future-proofed.

Energy efficiency and sustainability The sustainability objective will be met in a variety of ways. The innovative technology Royal Huisman will use on Project 410 qualifies for the new Lloyd’s “Hybrid Power” certificate as the yacht will be capable of regenerating energy during sailing.

A huge 2-megawatt battery bank facilitates silent and fumeless propulsion and ensures ultimate comfort with maximum redundancy and sustainability.

The board system set-up to deliver the above may be considered a challenge by some in the superyacht sector, but Royal Huisman has proven and evolved these systems for over 14 years since its launch of sailing yacht Ethereal in 2008, the world’s first hybrid superyacht.

In summary, here is a sailing yacht that is a much lighter alternative to large motor yachts  greener, and faster, even at low wind speeds.

At 85m / 280ft, she will also be the world’s largest sloop. The massive carbon mast, boom and integrated sailing system will be designed and produced by Royal Huisman’s sister company, Rondal. Project 410 will be constructed in aluminum at Royal Huisman’s newbuild facilities in Vollenhove.

Judging by the audience’s response to an exclusive unveiling at the start of the St. Barths Bucket Regatta 2022, Project 410 is set to become a very much-talked-about yacht.

Royal Huisman CCO Peter Naeyé concludes: “It is an extraordinary honor to be entrusted with a project of such scale, ambition, and technical sophistication. This unique Project 410 perfectly reflects ‘who we are and what we do’ at Royal Huisman. A true performance superyacht with supersized dimensions, and full of technical innovations. This project is already iconic in every aspect and will be built by the finest craftsmen in the world in full collaboration with her talented designers. We’re all going to enjoy the realisation of bespoke excellence embraced with ’New World’ technology.”

Main specifications of Project 410 85m NEW WORLD SLOOP Length: 85m / 280ft – “world’s largest sloop” Naval architecture + exterior styling: Frers Design Interior design: Wetzels Brown Rig + Integrated Sailing System: Rondal Builder: Royal Huisman

Technical information is currently restricted to the main specifications above. There will of course be further updates with more detailed information as the project progresses.

Superyacht MARANELLO, also known as HULL 143, is a 67m luxury yacht currently under construction at the CRN shipyard. Project MARANELLO features an exclusive design both inside and out by the talented team at Nuvolari Lenard.

Superyacht project MARANELLO’s appearance will be modern and aggressive, with sweeping lines seamlessly connecting the raked bow to the lower deck stern. The superyacht will offer exquisite accommodation for up to 14 guests over 7 en-suite cabins.

Announced features include a touch-n’-go helipad on the bow, a beach club and large outdoor entertainment spaces with diesel-electric propulsion for more environmentally friendly cruising.

The main deck, bridge deck and sundeck provide balanced indoor and outdoor social areas, with ample space on the bow for sunbathing with sweeping views of the anchorage.

It is without question that these new megayachts under construction will be some of the finest superyachts built to date, expertly designed to provide unmatched levels of luxury and comfort at sea.

feadship brings out the world’s first hydrogen fuel-cell superyacht, project 821

Meet project 821, the world’s first hydrogen fuel-cell superyacht.

Yacht builder Feadship recently unveiled what may be the world’s first hydrogen fuel-cell superyacht , Project 821. It is a colossal water vehicle with a size of 118.80 meters, all running on hydrogen, which is a lightweight, ‘puffy’ substance. When hydrogen is processed in a fuel cell, the by-products are electricity and water in the form of steam. For a superyacht, it may be able to carry a lot of power without adding too much weight. The only catch, one that the Feadship team had to confront, was that hydrogen needs to be stored in an extremely cold container to keep it from taking up too much space as a gas. To do this, Feadship had to make Project 821 a bit longer than originally planned to fit a four-meter storage tank, hence its 118.80-meter size. 

Feadship creates custom four-meter hydrogen storage tank

Feadship’s custom four-meter storage tank takes up quite a lot of space, eight to ten times more than regular diesel fuel would, even though the hydrogen itself is lighter. On the upside, the fuel cells on the Project 821 superyacht can also run on methanol, which is a liquid fuel that’s easier to store, a cleaner version of gasoline. Methanol doesn’t need to be super cold, so it might take up less space on the superyacht. At the moment, future innovations on fuel cells and onboard reforming of methanol to hydrogen are on the near horizon for Feadship, who’s focusing more on the current hydrogen technology they have in front of them.

superyacht project 821 can store less energy

In terms of energy storage, superyacht Project 821 stores less energy, around 543 kW hours, compared to a similar-sized yacht of Feadship named Savannah, which uses diesel (1 megawatt hour). The new superyacht doesn’t need as much stored energy since its hydrogen fuel cells can continuously generate power while it is running. Think of it as having a refillable generator onboard, boosting the superyacht’s power instead of relying only on a battery.In this way, the hydrogen-run Project 821 eliminates noisy engines when anchored or traveling slowly, and there’s no pollution when it cruises either. 

The superyacht Project 821 also has its own heat recycling system, which captures the waste heat from the engine—in this case, the fuel cells—and uses it for heating the pool, jacuzzi, and steam room on board, keeping the air at a moderate temperature in the guest areas, warming the towel bars and bathroom floors, and curtails the use of separate heaters to power up these amenities.

Feadship also installs a smart air conditioning system which automatically adjusts its temperature based on occupancy so that if nobody’s in a room, it won’t waste energy cooling it. The British RWD Studio worked on the entire look of the hydrogen-run Project 821, including the exterior, general arrangement, and all the décor inside. 

Coastal vibe is the theme the design attempts to evoke, the feeling of being near the beach or ocean while in a state of luxury. Light and airy colors and interior furnishings may help bring these up, starting with the use of light colors like white, beige, and cream for the walls, furniture, and fabrics. This sense of openness and bigger space is accompanied by textured fabrics and leathers, as well as a variety of natural materials.

These include marble, rattan, eucalyptus wood, and limed oak, a light-colored wood, all of which run throughout the interior of the superyacht Project 821. The design firm also retained the shapes of certain design elements on different floors, such as door trim features and hallway railings, to create a sense of continuity, but their use of materials vary, so that the guests can have the feeling of being in a new area.

The hydrogen-run superyacht is designed for families, with the top deck resembling a whole apartment on its own. It has two bedrooms with separate bathrooms and closets, a gym,a  pantry, two offices, each with a fireplace for working or relaxing, and a living room. There’s a walkaround deck with shaded areas at the front and back for lounging and enjoying the outdoors, and a jacuzzi in the front for a scenic soak.

Since Project 821 is wide, the hallways inside the superyacht are spacious to make walking around easy, allowing large side decks outside as well where guests can walk side-by-side. The superyacht has a  private access point for the owners that goes all the way down to the lower deck, which features a staircase with built-in bookshelves and display areas and an elevator for easy access between decks. 

On each floor, dedicated areas await guests, such as a coffee corner and a games area on the bridge deck, a library on the main deck, and a private dining room with a balcony and a connected bedroom on the lower deck. Feadship says Project 821 is the biggest superyacht ever built in the Netherlands, beating out its own sibling, Launchpad.

Even though they’re similar in length, Project 821 has 30 percent more space inside and has five floors above the water and two floors below, with the owner’s deck being as high as a 12-story building. As of publishing the story, Project 821 is being offered for sale by Edmiston.

Feadship had to make Project 821 a bit longer than originally planned to fit the storage tank

Out now: The Superyacht New Build Report

Issue 216: the superyacht new build report is now available to read and download online….

The New Build Report 2023  gave us a chance to look at the wider issue of industry sustainability. There will be many divergent paths to achieving its targets, but 2030 is no longer an arbitrary date. The fascinating discussion from The Superyacht Forum between Peter Lürssen, CEO of Lürssen , and Henk de Vries, CEO of Feadship set the stage in late 2022. Now seems the right time to look at some of the most exciting projects, concepts and ideas in development. 

This Report also takes invaluable insight from outside the industry echo chamber to examine how the future energy markets may affect the operation of the next-generation fleet, as well as the key outcomes from COP27 and how the superyacht industry can take a central role in environmental restoration programmes. 

The team from Lateral Naval Architects lift the lid on the bold new concept Aeolus from Oceanco and its three-stage transition platform that hopes to bring carbon neutrality to the 90m-plus sector. A platform with the inbuilt flexibility to evolve with a changing energy landscape, the fascinating challenges that Aeolus and Lateral address run deeper than just the energy density of future fuels.

Daniela Duck, the new-build division coordinator at Camper & Nicholsons , shares her insights into the challenge of new-build management in a buoyant but testing market. Duck discusses how her expertise fits into the Camper & Nicholsons framework, as well as the need for effective new-build management in a complex economic climate.

The concept of a zero-fossil-fuel superyacht has seemed a bridge too far for much of the industry despite the imperative placed on it by encroaching regulatory frameworks. Undoubtedly the most ambitious build featured in these pages, and arguably from across the industry, Project Zero aims to break the status quo. With the 69-metre Vitters ketch nearing reality, Marnix Hoekstra, co-creative director at Vripack , joins TSG to take a closer look at this open-source project and the equally ambitious foundation that supports it.  

For this edition, our editors also visited French Polynesia with the team from EYOS Expeditions , to see how a legendary polar exploration vessel is plying its trade in the tropics. We also analyse the hotly contested Italian 50m market and asked our readers to pick their favourite...

We are fully committed to working towards a greener superyacht industry. And we, as a team, aim to do all we can to ensure that we are part of the solution. That’s why we are encouraging our loyal readership to make the switch to digital media consumption, instead of print.

The Superyacht Report is only available to read to those with an Essential or Executive Membership .

Yacht Construction FAQs

What support will moran yacht & ship offer me during my yacht construction.

The experts and brokers at Moran Yacht & Ship have been in the industry for a long time and oversee many superyacht construction projects. Their expertise will support you at every stage of the new build process, ensuring your exact requirements are met. This includes:

• Informed selection of builder and shipyard
• Choice of interior and exterior designer
• Development and negotiation of the technical specification
• Negotiation of the build contract and price
• Project management throughout the build process

What does it cost to build a yacht?

The cost of building a yacht from scratch is based on multiple factors, including the size of the vessel, materials used, the complexity of the design, technology, propulsion systems, interior design features, onboard amenities, and the shipyard and designers used. Expect building a luxury boat to cost anywhere from $2 million to more than $300 million. Working with an experienced new build project management team, such as the experts at Moran Yacht & Ship, offers a cost-effective solution by ensuring builds remain within budget.

What are the benefits of building a yacht as opposed to buying a used yacht?

There are multiple benefits to building a yacht as opposed to buying a pre-owned yacht. When you build your own yacht, you enjoy the benefits of a fully customized vessel to meet your precise requirements, from its naval architecture and size to its cruising capabilities, layout, onboard technology, amenities, and interior design. A custom yacht will be tailored to suit your lifestyle and desired experiences.

Also, when you build your yacht, you won’t have to worry about pre-existing conditions. A new build yacht will come fully warranted, providing protection from future mechanical repairs and providing complete peace of mind.

Finally, Moran Yacht & Ship ensures that building a yacht is indulgently fun. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with a team of highly experienced boat-building professionals to create something truly extraordinary, from sketch board to on the water. Nothing matches the thrill of building your own yacht with even the smallest details tailored to your precise requirements. Indeed, a custom yacht offers the ultimate lifestyle purchase.

What are the pedigree shipyards that Moran has built with?

• Lurssen Since 1875, the northern German shipyard has produced some of the finest vessels on the superyacht market. This pedigree shipyard is known for innovating and utilizing cutting-edge technology. Lurssen continually breaks records, including developing both the longest superyacht in the world (AZZAM) and the biggest luxury superyacht in the world (DILBAR).
• Amels This Dutch shipyard officially entered the yachting sphere with the superyacht KATALINA, now named LADY GEORGINA, in 1982. The luxury boat builder specializes in motor boats, constructing both full custom as well as their highly sought-after semi-custom Limited Editions yacht series.
• Oceanco Oceanco is a pedigree boat builder and industry pioneer based in the Netherlands. The shipbuilder is renowned for building award-winning custom vessels up to 200 meters, both motor yachts and sailing vessels. The Dutch shipyard specializes in building innovative, high-quality superyachts that push the boundaries of shipbuilding.
• Feadship Also among the world’s most notable superyacht manufacturers is Feadship, a full custom motor yacht builder known for its uncompromising pursuit of perfection. The pedigree shipbuilder is located in Holland and boasts a long history stretching back to 1949.

Moran Yacht & Ship boasts strong relationships with the world’s leading shipyards and has project managed some of the world’s most luxurious custom superyachts. Contact us today if you want to build a luxury boat.

What countries are known to have the best shipyards?

European countries, including the Netherlands, Italy, France, and Germany, dominate when it comes to the best shipyards, thanks to their rich maritime heritage, skilled craftsmanship, and use of exceptionally high-quality materials.

What are the current waiting times to build a yacht with the best shipyards?

Overall, the more prestigious the shipyard, the longer the waiting time will be. Current waiting times for some of the most prestigious builders are around 4 to 5 years.

How long does it take to build a yacht?

The build time for a yacht can vary significantly depending on the project’s size, specifications, and complexity. Generally, superyacht construction times at pedigree shipyards range from 36 to 39 months.

Our new construction team is known for delivering our client’s projects on time and within budget.

What are mega yacht hulls made from?

Megayacht hulls are typically made from fiberglass, aluminum, or steel, and the choice of material will depend on the budget, yacht design, and how the owner wishes the vessel to perform.

A fiberglass hull is known for its excellent sea-keeping capabilities and ease of maintenance.

Aluminum offers excellent strength and durability. As a relatively lightweight material, it also provides better fuel economy and enables a yacht to reach higher speeds.

Steel is an exceptionally strong and durable material with high resistance to abrasion, making it popular with ocean-cruising yachts, especially expedition vessels. However, it is heavier than fiberglass or aluminum, making it less popular with owners wishing to build a yacht where speed is a priority.

What makes a boat considered a yacht?

Overall, there is no standardized definition of what makes a yacht. Mostly, the term yacht applies to vessels over 24 meters, where regulations for ownership change as well. The term yacht can equally define a motor boat or sailing vessel. Additionally, terms like superyacht,  megayacht, or gigayacht are often used to describe the most luxurious and largest ocean-going vessels.

Do I have to pay VAT on a new yacht?

As a moveable asset, whether you have to pay VAT – Value Added Tax – can be complex. Generally speaking, whether you have to pay VAT will depend on the country the owner is acquiring the yacht from and their country of residence. The VAT may also depend on the intended use of the vessel. Every country has different VAT rules and regulations. It is always a good idea to consult with a local tax professional with expert knowledge of the yachting industry to mitigate any potential tax liabilities.

What are financing options for yacht construction?

Building a new luxury boat can be an expensive endeavor and is a significant investment. Various financing options are available to those interested in purchasing or building a yacht. Financing typically involves one of three different solutions:

• Portfolio loans
• Private lenders

Bank loans are a popular option for financing a yacht construction. Many banks offer boat loans, which are similar to auto loans in terms of loan structure and required collateral.

Portfolio loans have become more popular for financing new construction projects. A number of institutions offer these and often have very favorable rates.

Private lenders also offer funding for boat construction. These lenders typically offer more lenient terms compared to banks. However, interest rates can be higher, and a larger down payment is often required.

How much does it cost to run a yacht per year?

The cost of running a yacht depends on many factors, including:

• Maintenance needs : they will also grow with the age of the yacht
• Size : the larger the yacht, the more crew is required
• Time spent cruising : fuel expenses increase with the cruising range
• Insurance costs
• Location : dockage and mooring fees will vary

Overall, a rule of thumb is that luxury yachts cost around 10% of their purchase price per year. This percentage is typically reduced slightly as the size of the boat increases.

New build yacht faq.

The yacht-building process is the ultimate journey for any prospective yacht Owner, allowing you to tailor every detail to your exacting requirements. New build yacht projects involve a considerable amount of creativity and freedom of expression, from pre-designed and semi-custom yachts to fully custom superyacht builds.

The yacht-building process requires a significant number of important decisions as an Owner, so having the support and expertise of an experienced yacht brokerage company is essential to ensure things run smoothly. At YACHTZOO, we coordinate your yacht build with key players across the industry to ensure we deliver the yacht of your dreams. Discover all you need to know about the yacht -building process to help you define your options.

What are the benefits of building your own yacht?

A custom yacht enables the Owner to build a vessel that precisely meets their needs. Whether you seek a cutting-edge sailing yacht designed for long-range cruising, an opulent superyacht designed for exploring luxury blue water havens or a state-of-the-art ocean explorer for navigating uncharted waters, a new build yacht can be made to match any lifestyle.

The main benefit of building your own yacht is the element of personalization it brings. When building a custom yacht, nothing is off-limits from the size, layout, amenities, interiors, and exterior design.

A custom yacht also allows for the option to choose a reduced carbon footprint by utilizing the latest eco-friendly technology, including state-of-the-art hybrid propulsion systems, wastewater recovery systems, and solar panels.

With the currently low inventory due to unprecedented yacht sales over the past two years, building your dream yacht may be the ideal option.

How long does it take to build a yacht?

The time of the yacht building process can vary considerably depending on the size, type, interiors, technical considerations, customization, and extra amenities you wish to have onboard, as well as the shipyard and their availability. On average, yacht construction can take anywhere from 18 months to 4 years. You can see below our estimations depending on the type of yacht you want to design.

What is a fully custom yacht?

A fully custom superyacht is the pinnacle of luxury yacht construction. Every aspect of aesthetic and technical design is bespoke and constructed to your specifications. A fully custom yacht build is an exciting yet complex undertaking, requiring 2.5 to 4 years to develop. The road from concept to the yacht-building process can be long and involves considerable research and planning.

Building a custom superyacht can be a superb experience when working alongside a reputable yacht brokerage like YACHTZOO. Our highly skilled agents can assist with all aspects of project management, from liaising with the shipyards, engineers, and interior designers, to the yacht’s classification and flag.

What is a semi-custom yacht?

A semi-custom yacht allows for the best of both worlds when it comes to the yacht-building process, offering faster lead times and reduced costs, as well as larger flexibility to personalize the vessel to your exact tastes and lifestyle.

Built on a proven platform – and sometimes on spec – this option reduces delivery time by around a third or more, taking 2 to 3 years to complete on average. While you may not have control over the pre-engineering and technical specifications, a varying degree of customization is still available throughout the interior design and options list of the semi-custom models to ensure the creation of a yacht bespoke to you.

What is a production yacht?

A production yacht is a tried and trusted way to keep costs and delivery time considerably lower than custom construction projects. While production yachts offer the least amount of creative freedom in terms of design, layout, and interior, many production yachts boast flexible layouts and interior design options, allowing for your own personal touch in a fraction of the usual yacht build time. The typical building process for a production yacht should take 1.5 to 2 years.

Whether you are looking to purchase a fully-custom, semi-custom, or production yacht, YACHTZOO’s experienced team takes the time to understand exactly your requirements, expectations, and parameters.

Why choose us?

In the realm of yacht construction, the use of advanced materials and the application of extensive knowledge have become paramount in crafting the largest yachts. The design team at YACHTZOO is adept at leveraging these advancements to enhance performance, durability, and aesthetics. By selecting innovative materials, our yacht construction projects not only meet but exceed the expectations of the most discerning owners. Furthermore, our commitment to sustainability and efficiency is evident in our choice of materials and design strategies, ensuring that each motor yacht we help bring to life is a testament to modern engineering and yachting excellence.

Understanding and navigating the complexities of contracts in yacht construction is a critical aspect that YACHTZOO excels in. Our experienced team provides comprehensive guidance throughout the contract negotiation process, ensuring that every detail is meticulously reviewed and aligns with our clients’ best interests. This attention to detail and knowledge of yachting regulations and standards underscores our dedication to delivering a seamless and secure boat building experience.

15 Extraordinary Superyachts Setting Sail In 2024

Posted: March 19, 2024 | Last updated: March 19, 2024

Breathtaking dream boats launching this year

Ready to discover the ultimate in nautical eye candy?

With the largest-ever superyacht poised to grace the high seas – and several other spectacular launches on the horizon – 2024 is tipped to be a truly unforgettable year for fans of floating palaces.

Click or scroll through to jump aboard the most hotly anticipated superyachts scheduled for delivery this year, from state-of-the-art explorers to a record-breaking model that's expected to cost a staggering $600 million. 

All dollar amounts in US dollars.

Custom YS 75 Hybrid: Cost unknown

Ushering in a new generation of high-end eco explorers, this expedition vessel from Damen Yachting in the Netherlands boasts a hybrid propulsion system for zero-emission cruising. For the uninitiated, a hybrid propulsion system uses two or more forms of propulsion, such as a biofuel or diesel engine combined with an electric machine.

As buyers become increasingly aware of environmental concerns, naval architects and yachtbuilders are devising green-leaning vessels that don't compromise on style, luxury, or performance. Damen is among the firms leading the way.

Designed by innovative London studio Michael Leach Design and engineered in-house, the 247-foot Custom YS 75 Hybrid has cutting-edge features, including a touch-and-go helipad and a crane for deploying tenders.

It can accommodate 24 crew members and up to 12 guests across six staterooms and boasts plush entertaining areas.

Due to launch early this year, the innovative vessel will also be the first private superyacht equipped with commercial-grade cultivation pods to grow vegetables, further adding to its eco credentials. As for the price tag? Damen is keeping it firmly under wraps...

Blue Marlin and Custom 78: Cost unknown

Admiral Yachts, owned by The Italian Sea Group, is delivering two sensational superyachts this year, according to Boat International : the 256-foot Custom 78 a nd 253-foot Blue Marlin (pictured).

Sleek and elegant, Blue Marlin's exterior and interior are both the handiwork of prestigious Dutch studio Sinot Yacht Architecture and Design.

The superyacht accommodates 12 guests in six staterooms and offers them a wealth of amenities, including a 19-foot swimming pool, a private spa, and a helipad. Its more sustainable credentials include a lower-emission diesel-electric propulsion system.

Precious little is known about Admiral's super-secretive Custom 78 project, as noted by Boat International .

It's known that the superyacht's exterior has been designed by Igor Lobanov, the Barcelona-based Russian nautical designer who's renowned for his futuristic, mega-streamlined creations. (An example of his work is shown here.)

Admiral has yet to disclose the price of either  Custom 78 or  Blue Marlin .

Project Toro: Cost unknown

Türkiye's Turquoise Yachts is getting ready to sign off the 259-foot Project Toro . It's actually running behind schedule and was supposed to be delivered last year.

With the exterior and interiors designed by British studio Harrison Eidsgaard – which is behind some of the world's most luxurious private jets, in addition to its portfolio of yachts – the end result will undoubtedly be a feast for the eyes.

Project Toro's neoclassical exterior is a real head-turner, while its interiors – which apparently include "a huge Neptune Lounge," to quote Super Yacht Times – have been described by the design team as "the definition of serenity and calm."

The fully customized beauty, which was sold in 2021 for an undisclosed sum, can comfortably fit 14 guests in its seven staterooms, as well as providing space for 21 crew members. Amenities onboard include a beauty salon, gym, and swimming pool.

Al Reem: Cost unknown

Formally known as  Silence , Al Reem is getting its finishing touches at the Bilgin shipyard in Türkiye's capital, Istanbul.

Spanning 263 feet, the superyacht showcases Bilgin's signature style – think razor-sharp exterior lines and a super-slender profile – with naval architecture by Turkish studio Unique Yacht Design. It's the third unit of Bilgin's 263 Series and the most advanced of the trio.

Silent by name, silent by nature: the superyacht was sold to a mystery owner in 2022 and the selling price hasn't been revealed. But it won't have come cheap, that's for sure.

Dreamed up by London's H2 Yacht Design, the modern interiors of the boat whisper quiet luxury. The eight suites (including three VIP cabins) can collectively accommodate up to 12 guests, and there's space for 18 crew members. Al Reem's amenities are top-notch too, with the beach club, gym, and movie theater just some of the standout features.

Project Vento: Cost unknown

Just weeks after Project Toro was sold in 2021, Turquoise Yachts found a buyer for Project Vento . As is the case with Project Toro , the identity of the owner and the price tag have not been divulged.

At 285 feet long, Project Vento is the largest superyacht ever built by Turquoise, with the company teaming up with long-time collaborator London's H2 Yacht Design to work on the boat's esthetics. The result? A distinctive two-tone white and blue exterior with soft, flowing lines.

The interiors are just as eye-catching, with the superyacht boasting a wealth of features.

For the billionaire who has everything, there's a helipad that can also be used as an outdoor movie theater and basketball court. But the pièce de résistance  has to be the incredible 21-foot glass-sided swimming pool on the lowest deck.

Project 1012: Cost unknown

With the venture cloaked in mystery, Feadship hasn't released any renders of Project 1012 and has yet to disclose information about the team behind it.

Based on images of the vessel undergoing trials in December 2022, Megayacht News has speculated that it could be traditional in design and may feature a beach club. However, these details won't be confirmed until the superyacht is delivered sometime this year – so watch this space...

Project 1012 is another Feadship superyacht that's slated for delivery in 2024.

The shipyard is being particularly secretive about the vessel, with details extremely sketchy. While we know that the superyacht is 300 feet long, further information about the vessel is next to non-existent.

Project JASSJ: Cost unknown

Spanning 338 feet, Project JASSJ  is the third-largest of the show-stopping superyachts German shipbuilder Lürssen is delivering in 2024.

Sold in 2021 to an anonymous buyer for an undisclosed price, the superyacht features exterior and interior design by RWD Design. American firm Moran Yacht & Ship is overseeing the build.

Fantastically spacious, Project JASSJ can accommodate 22 guests in 11 staterooms.

Lürssen isn't holding back when it comes to amenities, promising an "industry-leading" beach club, as well as a swimming pool, deck Jacuzzi, top-end gym, and elevator, along with a state-of-the-art helipad and side-opening tender garage.

105 Explorer (NB-729): Cost unknown

Hot on the heels of delivering the 367-foot Renaissance (NB-724) , the largest ever yacht crafted in Spain (and shown here in all its glory), Freire's Galician shipyard is set to complete another whopper:  105 Explorer (NB-729) , which comes in at 344 feet.

Renaissance  has been described by Burgess Yachts as a "temple of leisure" and "sanctum of tranquillity." But 105 Explorer (NB-729) is more about adventure than relaxation...

The superyacht may be kitted out with all the classic creature comforts but, as a roving expedition vessel, the emphasis is on performance rather than amenities.

Reflecting other high-end shipbuilders, Freire has chosen to keep the price of the superyacht a secret in the interest of client confidentiality.

Ace 21: Cost $150 million

Ace 21 is one of four show-stopping superyachts that Germany's Lürssen is delivering this year.

Extending over 256 feet end to end, the glamorous vessel spans five decks – the superyachts we've covered so far have just four – and has been designed to provide five-star relaxation in the world's most idyllic locations. It can accommodate up to 14 guests and a crew of 24.

Lürssen, which has taken care of the naval architecture, has reportedly designed the superyacht so it can cruise closer to shorelines and dock alongside paradise-style beaches and coves.

Ace 21 is all about relaxation – and its designated wellness zone, complete with an extensive spa, beach club, and deck Jacuzzi, combine to make it the perfect place to kick back, millionaire style.

SuperYachtFan reports the vessel was ordered by an unnamed individual who's said to be a prominent figure in the yachting world. The site pegs Ace 21 's price tag at $150 million and estimates annual running costs could stretch as high as $15 million.

Project 825: Cost $186 million

On the other hand, the asking price for Feadship's Project 825  has been revealed.

Due for delivery later in the year, the 249-foot superyacht is currently available for $186 million via Burgess Yachts.

Newly-built vessels of this size and caliber are usually custom orders, so it's rare for one to come on the market. The yacht is likely to be snapped up by a member of the super-rich elite who doesn't have the patience to wait years for a bespoke job .

The turnkey superyacht, which is getting its finishing touches at the Feadship Royal Van Lent shipyard in the Netherlands, has a slick two-tone exterior by Feadship's De Voogt Naval Architects. Its chic interiors are courtesy of Parisian design house Gilles & Boissier.

Project 825 has six staterooms with space for 12 guests, who'll have their every whim catered to by 17 crew members. Among its key selling points are an awesome glass-bottomed swimming pool and a private VIP terrace that boasts its own Jacuzzi.

There's also a sauna, deck gym, games room, and touch-and-go helipad, as well as an elevator. 

Project 712: Cost $200 million+

Feadship is practically churning out superyachts at the moment, with multiple deliveries scheduled this year. Project 712 is among them.

The 272-foot vessel features an exterior design by Feadship's De Voogt Naval Architects. Unlike the aforementioned Project 825 , however, the interiors are the work of top Dutch firm Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design, not French studio Gilles & Boissier.

Because Feadship is selling Project 825 , the price has been revealed – but Project 712 's cost is being kept firmly under wraps. Given its larger dimensions, it's likely to be even more expensive than its sister vessel.

The superyacht has space for up to 10 guests across its five cabins, according to YachtCharterFleet,  and comes equipped with a wealth of billionaire-worthy amenities, including a beach club, a gym, and a deck Jacuzzi.

Project 821: Cost $200 million+

The biggest Feadship superyacht launching this year – not to mention the largest the Dutch company has ever built – is  Project 821 , which spans 390 feet.

Feadship is being as secretive about this superyacht as it is with Project 1012 , with very few details known about it. 

The exterior design is characterized by soft lines, and there's a capacious beach club to the rear of the superyacht that leads down to a swimming platform... And that's all we know. 

Both the buyer and the price of  Project 821 are being kept hush-hush, though the superyacht is likely to have cost considerably more than the smaller Project 825 , which is on the market for $186 million.

Project Deep Blue: Cost $450 million

The second-biggest of Lürssen's four superyachts expected to launch this year, Project Deep Blue may not be delivered to its owner until 2025, according to several expert forecasts.

Details about the project are scant. Even the final length of the superyacht is uncertain, but it's believed to measure at least 427 feet.

No doubt the owner is delighted with the sophisticated exterior design, which bears similarities to Lürssen's Ahpo (now named Lady Jorgia).  

SuperYachtFan reports Project Deep Blue is expected to accommodate 24 guests and a crew of 45. It estimates the vessel would cost a staggering $450 million, with punishing yearly running costs of $45 million. The website has vaguely identified the owner as an Indian or Chinese billionaire.

Project Luminance: Cost $500 million (£392m)

The biggest of Lürssen's four show-stopping superyachts hitting the water in 2024, Project Luminance spans a whopping 475 feet, making it almost as long as three Olympic-sized swimming pools.

The superyacht was originally slated for completion last year, but the delivery date has since been put back. A masterpiece of nautical design, Project Luminance wows thanks to its exterior by Monaco-based Espen Øino and equally elegant interiors by French studio Zuretti Interior Design.

Project Luminance is estimated to accommodate as many as 24 guests across 12 opulent staterooms. Amenities are fantastically lavish, with the vessel reportedly boasting two helipads and a massive swimming pool, which comes complete with an adjacent dip pool.

Reported to cost in excess of $500 million, Project Luminance was commissioned by Rinat Akhmetov, the richest person in Ukraine.

A report in The New York Times in 2022 suggested Akhmetov was considering selling the vessel in light of Russia's invasion of his home country. Still, it appears the billionaire might have decided to keep it for now. And who can blame him?

Somnio: Cost $600 million (£470m)

Putting this year's other launches firmly in the shade, Somnio spans a colossal 728 feet, making it the largest superyacht ever built.

The world's first "yacht-liner," this $600 million floating palace for the mega-rich is billed as "the most exclusive address in the world" and will cruise the planet's iconic yachting destinations, from Monaco to French Polynesia.

Somnio features 39 luxe private residences and a wealth of "six-star" amenities, including an enormous resort-style swimming pool, premium spa, opulent movie theater, gourmet restaurants, 10,000-bottle wine cellar, and a library.

Nearing completion at Norway's Vard shipyard, the six-deck nautical extravaganza is a collaboration between Somnio, Fincantieri, and Vard, while Tillberg Design of Sweden and the UK's Winch Design have looked after the interior design.

The potential occupants of the 39 apartments are being carefully hand-picked. On offer are units with two to four bedrooms, with the option to fully customize them with the likes of a gym, personal kitchen, library, and more.

Those lucky enough to get a Somnio invite can expect to pay from $22 million to secure a cabin in the elite vessel, with service charges likely to be sky-high too.

Billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg spend six figures a year maintaining their superyachts. Here's how.

• Superyachts  are one of the most expensive assets money can buy.
• The true cost of ownership is even more, adding up to millions a year.
• Here's how much it costs to own a superyacht — and what that money is going toward.

Financial advisors are quick to warn prospective owners that a boat is nothing more than a hole in the water in which to throw money. When it comes to superyachts , you'd better have bags and bags of cash.

As one luxury agent told Business Insider at the Palm Beach International Boat Show: "Buying a boat, it's a huge purchase — and nobody needs a yacht."

A superyacht, generally over 30 meters long, is one of the most expensive assets money can buy, with the largest costing more than a lot of real estate or a private jet. Billionaires like Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, and Steve Jobs each spent nine figures on their megayachts.

That doesn't include operating costs. Owners should expect to pay about 10% of a yacht's new-build price each year, experts told Business Insider. That's tens of millions of dollars annually for the most luxurious boats.

"It's a small-to-medium-sized business in its own right," said Jeffrey Beneville, a senior vice president at insurance company NFP, where he specializes in consulting clients about yachts.

Unlike many smaller boats, superyachts need staff, not just a captain. Some superyachts have space for dozens of crewmembers , including a chef, engineer, and masseuse for the guests onboard. Each gets an annual salary — the highest-ranking members earn six figures — and benefits. Eric Schmidt's yacht fits a crew of 28 for a ratio of about two crewmembers per guest.

Then there's fuel, dockage fees, routine maintenance, and insurance. The latter hinges on everything from the reputation of a yacht's shipyard to where an owner wants to take it (if a vessel is taking frequent trips to the South China Sea, for example, expect to pay a higher premium). If a superyacht has a support yacht — or a support superyacht, in Bezos ' case — expect to pay another 10% of that boat's price annually.

"The cost to maintain a yacht is so high that they just think that money's getting lit on fire," Matthew Fleissig, the CEO of wealth management firm Pathstone, told BI of his clients who choose to charter rather than own.

One of his firm's clients who does own has a 23-meter yacht valued at $5.2 million. The annual cost to staff, maintain, dock, and insure the boat is $346,297, according to documentation provided to BI. The lion's share is spent on marina fees ($95,970) and maintenance work ($88,408.) While not exactly a Sunfish, that boat is too small to count as a superyacht.

At 106 meters, the Amadea, owned by a sanctioned Russian oligarch , definitely does. The $300 million yacht, which was seized in 2022 and is docked in San Diego, cost $922,000 a month to maintain, a court filing showed: $360,000 for crew salaries, $75,000 for fuel, $144,000 for insurance, $178,000 in dry-docking fees, and $165,000 for maintenance, waste removal, food for the crew, and miscellaneous expenses.

"And that's an inactive yacht that's in the water," NFP's Beneville said.

If it were operational and carrying guests, the costs would be about twice that, or between $20 million and $30 million a year, he added.

Of course, it makes more financial sense for the non-obsessives to charter, and many of Fleissig's clients do. And some owners choose to offer their yachts for charter — the most luxurious cost as much as $1 million a week — to offset the costs.

"If you charter the boat for 50 days a year, it's going to help a lot," Anders Kurtén, the CEO of brokerage firm Fraser Yachts, told BI.

Then again, the running costs don't matter as much at a certain point. "If you're worth $30 billion, it's nothing. And if you're worth $117 billion — and these are the guys we're talking about — they're in it as long as it's still enjoyable for them," Beneville said. "It's not a money thing."

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

Kate Middleton has made a return to social media alongside Prince William to share an update on a project that’s close to her heart.

The Princess of Wales, 42, has been undergoing chemotherapy treatment behind the scenes after revealing her cancer diagnosis to the world in March.

In honor of Mental Health Awareness Week, Middleton and William noted the psychological struggles young farmers can face as they shared a video highlighting the work Middleton has been carrying out behind closed doors.

“This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek we’ve brought together the inspirational Sam Stables from We Are Farming Minds and the brilliant Farmer Will for a very special film,” the prince and princess wrote on X and Instagram .

“Spending a day together on Sam’s farm in Hereford they chatted about mental health in the farming community, finding support and the Duchy of Cornwall’s Mental Health Strategy.”

While the mom of three doesn’t appear in the video, she and William contributed to its production.

It is believed that work on the farming project began before her diagnosis.

Fans rushed to the comments section to thank the princess for her work and unwavering dedication to the project, given her current circumstances.

“We all know Princess Kate is working behind the scene as much as she can while receiving her cancer treatment. What a woman 👏❤️,” wrote one person.

Another commented, “Prince William and Princess Kate are always on the front line to help others,” while a third added, “Amazing initiative! Thank you Princess Catherine for your care and foresight.”

View this post on Instagram A post shared by The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood (@earlychildhood)

The post comes two months after Middleton shared a pre-recorded video on March 22 in which she revealed her health woes to the world .

The royal said doctors discovered her cancer during a planned abdominal surgery in January, and noted that she is now in the early stages of “a course of preventative chemotherapy.”

The Post revealed that  Middleton and William “sugarcoated” her health woes  when breaking the news to their youngest son, Prince Louis, but had a more “difficult” conversation with Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

As the royal undergoes treatment, her parents, Michael, 74, and  Carole Middleton , 69,  are stepping in to support their grandchildren  during this uncertain time.

120-foot luxury yacht runs aground off West Maui

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - A luxury tour yacht is stuck on the rocks off Lahaina, the state DLNR Division of Boating and Ocean Recreation said.

The 120-foot Maui Princess ran aground in shallow waters off Lahaina around 8:30 a.m. Thursday.

But the U.S. Coast Guard says they are not responding because the crew was not in distress.

DOBOR said the owner is trying to hire a tug to attempt to remove it at high tide.

There was no immediate word on possible injuries, coral damage, or fuel leaks.
