Elandess: The 75m superyacht with an eight-metre pool and underwater lounge

Elandess rewrites yacht layout trends to meet her owner’s needs and, as Marilyn Mower discovers, creates some magical family spaces in the process

The owner of Elandess came late to yachting, but he has made up for lost time. He was 50 before he spent any significant time on a superyacht, celebrating the milestone birthday on a charter with his family. He was hooked, and in the last 16 years he and his wife have taken delivery of three custom yachts of 47 metres or more, each more finely tuned to their ever-changing lifestyle. The latest is 74.5 metre Abeking & Rasmussen Elandess , the closest they’ve come to yachting perfection.

Elandess  is one of that rare breed of full custom yachts that sprang from a blank sheet of paper. The profile and GA, both by Harrison Eidsgaard, were well developed before the yacht went to tender. Just how custom  Elandess  is would be revealed deck by deck. Eidsgaard begins the tour at the swim platform, leading us inside past the tender bay to a bright corridor illuminated from rooms beyond. The light filtering from starboard is a beckoning blue. I follow it to the Neptune lounge, which is modelled on the Nemo Room of 83.5 metre  Feadship Savannah .  It is part grotto, part submarine, part amphitheatre and all completely brilliant. Its soaring three-metre-high ceiling is amplified by a wall of near full-height glass, one third of it below the waterline. Blue painted floors match the colour of the ceiling and seating, upholstered in an Extex outdoor fabric with a surprising chenille finish. The room is a showstopper; I imagine hours could be whiled away here.

“I knew one other boat had attempted this,” says the owner. “I also knew that the yacht industry had made great strides in recent years with the use of glass. Putting all that together, we set about designing our own version of such a space – one that would be fun for youngsters and adults alike.” 

This Neptune lounge is not a theatre like the Nemo lounge on  Savannah ( Elandess has another place for that) and her owner is right: the industry has made great strides with the use of glass. The viewing ports on Elandess are larger than Savannah’s . The six glass panels – three large and three small – delivered by GL Yachtverglasung are close to 10 centimetres thick and so strong they don’t require storm shutters. “They were so heavy we had to put them in with a crane,” Jonker says. Even the small panels, at 490 kilograms, are heavier than can be installed by hand. Opposite the Neptune lounge is a generously sized gym also utilising full-height glass offering views out to sea. Next, going aft, are a hair salon and a quiet, relaxing massage area.

“The yard performed the engineering of the yacht and managed the approvals with Lloyd’s Register and the flag state [Cayman Islands],” notes Edmund Beckett of  Burgess  Technical Services, which served as the owner’s representative. “There is nothing like it in the rules,” he says of the underwater viewing lounge. “It’s not prohibited, but just not considered in the existing rules.” The yard approached the design with a thorough risk assessment that encompassed everything from how the space is treated in the freeboard calculations to considering alternative damage scenarios, which are over and above those typically required, and how any flood water may be handled in the event of a breach.

For another surprise, the Neptune lounge and gym lobby open into a glass-enclosed passage through the upper level of the engine room where guests can look into the heart of the yacht. Safety is paramount here, too, with the glass walls of the passage rated A60, meaning they could be subjected to fire for 60 minutes before degrading. A heavy door at the end of this catwalk opens on to the guest lobby, ushering us to the family suites. Here, six similar-sized cabins that can be made into three suites range off a central corridor. Pairs of cabins on port and starboard can be combined via concealed doors, while at the end of the corridor a hidden door creates a vestibule, linking the adjacent cabins.

It was a layout conceived by the owners to accommodate their three grown-up children and assorted grandchildren. When the owners travel with adult friends, the beds in the rooms can be arranged as singles, as king-size beds or as an L-shaped sofa arrangement to create VIP suites, Eidsgaard notes, showing how the nightstands can be repositioned and even turned into coffee tables to facilitate different arrangements.

The suites’ individual colour themes arise from indirectly lit two-tone mosaic tile walls, providing a textured focal point in each of the bathrooms. The cabins are connected to the rest of the yacht via a circular staircase, its soft daylight rippling down from a skylight in the bottom of the sundeck swimming pool and glinting off mother-of-pearl flecks in a plaster surround by DKT Artworks. “We certainly put the family suites’ arrangements through their paces this summer,” the owner says. “We were neck high in children and grandchildren from 43 to two years of age, plus nannies, and a variety of going-to-bed and getting-up times, etc. The family suites took everything our children and grandchildren could throw at them and proved to be both flexible and effective.”

The owners’ pleasure with the arrangement is equal to their involvement and the trajectory of their learning curve. “Once we decided to build our own yacht, since we had friends building at Heesen and De Vries, we went to visit those yards. My wife liked Heesen and they had a 47 metre available, so we signed a contract in January 2005. I had heard of Bannenberg & Rowell , so I asked them if they would do the interior and they said they would be delighted.

“We happened to go aboard a 60 metre yacht at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show in 2006 and were surprised at how much more we could get,” the owner continues. “I met Abeking & Rasmussen and we began talking about a boat of that size. They told me that they were sorry, but they were holding a slot for a 57 metre for another client who had yet to commit, and it would be two years before they could start a boat for me.

“I told them that if they could clear the position with the other client, and if they could make the boat 60 metres instead of 57, I would sign a letter of intent the following morning. They did, and I did, and the next thing was that Bannenberg & Rowell were designing two yachts for us with delivery dates a year apart.”

In August 2008 they took delivery of the Heesen and put it into charter service. It sold 14 months after they took delivery of their new Abeking the following year. They also began a global adventure, spending about 80 to 90 days aboard each year. “When you are on a yacht, you see a lot of things you don’t see out the window of a hotel suite.” Wanting to share that with a growing pack of grandchildren was the impetus for a larger boat. “You can’t just Google a formula for how to design a yacht for a certain number of people. You have to be involved,” says the owner.

As we chat over lunch on the upper aft deck, the London skyline spread before us, the owner shares his thoughts and opinions about various aspects of the large yacht industry from his point of view as an entrepreneur, and an industry he calls “conservative, nervous and slow to innovate”.

“In early 2015, Abeking came along with Peder Eidsgaard to present a speculative design for our next boat,” he says. “I didn’t like the particular design, but I liked some of his ideas and the way he worked.” Soon, the three of them were conceptualising a boat. Eidsgaard sketched a profile with a not quite plumb stem, which he calls an Atlantic bow, and a surprisingly low profile achieved by recessing the wheelhouse between the upper deck and sundeck.

With a rough GA and the profile in hand, Beckett managed the bid process, which was eventually won by Abeking. With all the participants selected, the project surged forward. Key concepts were a main deck master suite, a large office and a design envelope offering multiple opportunities to be connected to the sea. “The broad-brush likes and dislikes were handled quickly and then it was off to details,” Eidsgaard says. Design meetings were scheduled in three-hour chunks. Eidsgaard and project lead Nick Houghton, Ewa Eidsgaard and designer Christopher Kvilums brought hundreds of samples to sketch meetings and found the owners so decisive, they went from first design to CAD drawings in just six intense weeks.

Passing the stair column on the main deck, a curved wall upholstered in silver/white chenille fabric leads first to the owner’s office with a handsome desk of polished metal and edge-lit glass designed by Eidsgaard and made, as is most of the furniture, by Rodiek. Beyond, the master suite is a massive – and massively quiet – space that beat contracted noise levels by 10 decibels. It centres on a contemporary take on a classical raised bed. Its grey leather frame is stepped to provide integrated indirect lighting. Raising the bed gives the owners views to the horizon through the full-height glass doors to the side balcony. Milano, a silver and pale aqua fabric by Armani/Casa, sweeps decoratively up the wall behind the bed, establishing the cool tones used throughout the room. Moving aft, the main dining area is a grand affair.

The centrepiece is an extending, organically shaped dining table for 14 to 20 guests, topped with Based Upon’s blue tramazite resin surface technique, with an edging of shaped pewter and polished stainless steel.

The next level is where the boat gets clever. The forward part of the deck is dominated by a family space that includes a library and cosy reading nook on starboard and a large observation lounge forward with curved floor-to-ceiling windows offering views sweeping across an outdoor seating area. Sliding glass doors grant access. Unless you were looking for it, you wouldn’t notice that the overhead gets lower as it approaches the windows, or that there is a slot for a large movie screen to descend. The room is simply furnished with the largest sectional sofa Eidsgaard has ever installed on a yacht and a handsome high-top table by Hull Studio made from one slab of live edge American walnut.

“We envisioned a room where we could gather the family for burgers and a movie night,” the owner says. “This room has worked out brilliantly, especially if we want to have a more casual dining experience, and the grandchildren used it several times to chill out and watch a movie. We particularly enjoyed having pre-dinner drinks on the foredeck seating area, which is out of view of the wheelhouse. It’s rare for yachts to have that capability.”

At the aft end of this deck is a large upper saloon with a 2.75-metre-high ceiling designed to be the family’s daytime living area. The casual décor is reminiscent of New England. Full-height glass doors slide out of the way for indoor/outdoor living with an enormous dining table under cover of the upper deck overhang and a sunny seating area beyond. Stairs lead to the huge sundeck. “You get up here and you walk about and after a while you say, ‘Hey, where is the bridge?’” Jonker says with a laugh. “You realise it’s not on the deck below that you just came from.”

No, it’s not. Between the sloping overhead of the observation lounge and the raised forward portion of the sundeck lies Elandess’s secret bridge, accessible only from crew circulation pathways on the port side. It lies between the upper and sundecks and atop the central AV equipment room, ship’s office and captain’s cabin.

“Many boats this length would have another deck,” Jonker says. “But the owner loved Peder’s profile and it was our job to make it fit.” In fact, creating a central core of service areas, electrical and plumbing trunks and crew circulation is a touchstone with Eidsgaard. The owner likens the bridge to the cockpit location of a 747, although it is obviously much larger. For harbour manoeuvres, Captain Chris May points to wing stations that pop out of the superstructure, granting him unobstructed views from bow to stern. There is no obvious access to the bridge from guest areas, which keeps it a quiet and focused workspace, he says.

The pièce de résistance from the owner’s perspective is the sundeck, a place created to spend the entire day. The centrepiece is the eight metre by 2.5 metre pool containing 22 tonnes of fresh water warmed via waste heat recovery. Hidden beams below the pool distribute weight to the outer edges of the superstructure and down to the hull. “Dispersing the weight was the easy part,” Jonker says. “Discovering how to empty the pool was harder. We had to place two 280 millimetre [diameter] pipes to empty the water to the dump tank in just three minutes without impacting on the owner and guest areas [directly beneath the pool on all decks].”

Flanking the pool and under a hardtop is a large seating area around a dining table on starboard with an outdoor bar on port. Up a few steps and aft is a seating area that can be covered by a retractable awning. Still farther aft, sun loungers with movable backrests allow guests to face forward or aft without moving the furniture. This deck is where the children’s safety measures really come into play with stair guards and solid glass with stainless cap railings.

“I think the boat exceeds our expectations,” says the owner. “She’s sleek, solid and incredibly comfortable with the variety of social spaces we set out to create. One way or another, we’ve allowed everyone to keep in touch with the elements of the sea, which, after all, is what a boat is all about. “ Elandess is a wonderful boat into which we’ve invested all our experience and learning from her two predecessors. Together with the yard and the designers, we certainly pushed the envelope."

SOLD: 75m Abeking and Rasmussen M/Y 'Elandess'

By Heather Collier

The 74.5m Elandess has officially been sold in a deal with Seattle Yachts broker Glenn Runyan representing the buyer and Dominic Millman of Burgess standing in for the seller.

Launched in 2018, Elandess is a custom superyacht built by Abeking & Rasmussen.  

Following the success of Abeking's highly futuristic  Aviva , Elandess was destinated to ooze new-modern. From the sub-waterline and aptly named ‘Nemo’ Lounge inspired by Feadship' s Savannah , to the 8-metre sapphire swimming pool on the expansive sun-deck, the yacht’s sporty angles and contemporary appeal has opened up her interiors to make a dream, reality. 

The Neptune Lounge is by far her greatest highlight. It is part grotto, part submarine and part amphitheatre, with a stunning three-metre-high ceiling complimented by a wall of near full-height glass, one third of it below the waterline, with blue painted floors harmonising with the colour of the ceiling and seating.

The room is considered a complete show-stopper for those venturing on board, granting them an entirely new perspective of the cruising grounds they plan to explore.

Her previous owners commissioned Harrison Eidsgarrd to produce the masterpiece with the intention of bringing their exacting visions to life. Penned by Pedar Eidsgaard himself, who hails 22 years’ experience in yacht design, both the interiors and exteriors of Elandess were set to be unique.

With a brief set out to bring modernity and spaciousness for the ultimate lounging landscape, Elandess’ length allowed the design studio to experiment with communal spaces and create an array of entertaining areas.

In terms of performance, Elandess is equipped with twin Caterpillar engines that provide her with a top speed of 16 knots and cruising speed of 14.5 knots. At the time of her sale, Elandess had a last known asking price of €130,000,000.

" A fascinating superyacht in every respect be it the view at the world above and under water from the Neptune Lounge, the sapphire blue of the transparent swimming pool or the cinematic panorama from the owner’s suite. The Elandess is truly enticing the senses, in every possible way. " says the shipyard.

Superyachts.com would like to congratulate her new owners and all parties involved.

Elandess 2009

Elandess – a visionary yacht.

Everyone loves the motor yacht Elandess at first sight, especially, because of her design that is based on juxtaposition of opposites. The refined Don Starkey exterior design makes the 60m yacht appear remarkably slender in spite of her substantial volume. The characteristically maritime colour palette of the interior creates a continuously pleasant and warm atmosphere despite the clash of disparate style elements, such as the floral lightness in the dining room and the sculptural force of the stainless steel staircase. It is precisely this style pluralism in consonance with design and technology that imbues the Elandess with its unmistakable character. Value in and of itself.

Award winning 60 metre ELANDESS offered for sale by Burgess

Published 09 March 2016

Masterminded by German shipyard Abeking & Rasmussen, the award-winning 60m (196.9ft) motor yacht ELANDESS is now offered for sale by Burgess.

Delivered in 2009, ELANDESS has been brought onto the sales market in meticulous condition and with a repaint of her midnight blue hull, she boasts striking exterior aesthetics. With just one owner since build, and having never been offered for charter she is a sound purchase opportunity.

ELANDESS is a product emerging from the collaboration of two world class design houses. Her tall, elegant exterior was created by award winning Donald Starkey Designs where as her warm, inviting and art deco-influenced interior is the work of Bannenberg & Rowell Design. Inside, ELANDESS is a bold fusion of functionality and contemporary design combining touchable textures with interesting artefacts creating a highly original and supremely comfortable living environment. Accommodation is offered for 12 guests in a cabin configuration of one full beam master on the main deck with a further four guest cabins (two doubles and two twins) positioned on the lower deck which can convert into two full beam suites. A multi-purpose cabin on the bridge deck with two pullman beds and can equally serve as a children's playroom or study. The public areas adhere to the philosophy of communal gatherings with an expansive sky lounge and an inviting saloon creating an ideal environment for quality family, or social time.

Out on deck a well-conceived design gives way to excellent al fresco space: an open plan sun deck features a large jacuzzi complete with sunpads, sun loungers plus cocktail bar and gym equipment; dining spaces feature aft on both the bridge and main decks too. ELANDESS effortlessly combines performance with elegance, and although historically used for private, family cruising she lends herself well as a charter yacht. Her Quantum XT stabilisers ensure on board comfort both while underway or at anchor. She has successfully completed a circumnavigation offering a comfortable cruising speed of 13 knots reaching a maximum range of 5,000NM.

As the winner of Best Power 40-65m category at the International Superyacht Society Awards 2010 plus finalist in several categories at the ShowBoat Designs Awards and World Superyacht Awards 2010, ELANDESS is a real head-turner.

ASKING PRICE: €52,500,000 EU VAT PAID
