TITAN Yacht – Extravagant $100M Superyacht

Reymond Langton Design penned both the interior and exterior features of the fantastic superyacht and Abeking & Rasmussen built her.

She was delivered from their Lemwerder shipyard in 2010, along with two sister ships, Eminence and C2, which are privately owned pleasure yachts. TITAN is used personally by the owner.

TITAN yacht interior

The TITAN yacht features interior design from British yacht designer Reymond Langton Design .

The interior details of the TITAN yacht remain private, but Reymond Langton Design is known for its beautiful and functional designs.

She has accommodation for 14 guests on board in 7 suites. There is also accommodation for 19 crew members on board the 80m superyacht.

She has a beach club for a perfect indoor/outdoor for guests to enjoy on the water level.

There is an on-deck Jacuzzi for relaxation and a gym for guests to use. There is also a movie theater that guests can relax in after a day on the water.

TITAN features a unique Abeking & Rasmussen feature with a large transom hatch to load and launch the tenders from the large interior garage.

The exterior of the TITAN yacht was also designed by Reymond Langton Design and built by the German shipyard Abeking & Rasmussen.

The shipyard’s in-house design team penned the naval architecture. She was delivered from the Lemwerder shipyard in 2010 and refitted in 2021.

The hull of the TITAN yacht is grey with a white aluminum superstructure. TITAN has a modern and powerful exterior on the water.

Specifications

The TITAN yacht is a 78.43m yacht with a 12.6m beam and a 3.4m draft. She has a displacement of 2115 gross tons and a top speed of 17 knots.

Her two Caterpillar engines give her a cruising speed of 13 knots and a range of 6000 nautical miles.

She has at-anchor stabilizers to provide exceptional comfort levels for guests. The $100 million vessel has an annual running cost of $5 – $10 million. She was built to Lloyd’s Society Rules and MCA standards.

The TITAN yacht is a privately owned yacht that is not available for charter. However, her sister ship Eminence is a charter yacht.

The owner was born in Krasnodar, Russia, USSR, and is of Jewish descent. He attended The Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, graduating with a degree in physics and mathematics in 1982.

Before beginning his business ventures, he first worked for Russia’s space and defense program as a scientist.

Government funding declined for the space program, and so he became a major businessman in Russia. 

Before the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, he ran a laboratory at the Joint Institute of High-Pressure Temperatures, studying high energy densities and shock wave physics and applied electrodynamics.

Abramov leaped into business when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991 and founded his first firm in 1992 that imported and sold fitness equipment.

Later, he joined former classmates to create EvrazMetall, an exporter of Russian steel. This precursor enterprise of Evraz Holding made him a fortune by exporting metals and coals from the Urals and Siberia.

Between 2001 and 2003, Abramov and his partners acquired three steel plants Nizhny Tagil Iron and Steel Plant, West Siberian Iron and Steel Plant, and Novokuznetsk Iron and Steel Plant.

These three plants were the foundation for Evraz, which now has iron ore, coal mining, and steel manufacturing operations. The partners sold shares in Evraz on the London Stock Exchange in 2005 for $400 million.

A year later, the partners sold 41% of the company to billionaire Roman Abramovich, pocketing $3 billion.

There are ten partners in Evraz. Abramov has a 29% stake in the country and is a director alongside Alexander Frolov.

Abramov used the process to invest in gold, forestry, and mobile internet services. In 2013, Abramov and Abramovich teamed up again to buy a 5.9% stake in Norilsk Nickel, the world’s second-largest nickel producer.

Abramov and partners sold a 24.5% stake in Trans Container for $436 million. The company is Russia’s largest railway container operator.

Written by Mike Smith

Superyacht Titan has been launched on May 21 by Abeking & Rasmussen in Germany on the banks of the river Weser. Titan is the third yacht in their 78m series. With a length of 78.43m the Titan yacht is one of the largest superyachts in the world – gaining a placing about midway in the Top 100 largest yachts. Motor yacht Titan has her exterior styling created by Reymond Langton, who also designed the two other superyachts in the 78m series.

As mentioned Titan’s exterior as well as interior design was created by Reymond & Langton Design. The naval architecture was completed by A&R’s in house engineering department.  Her short specification is length overall: 257 ft (78,43 m) with a beam of 40,7 ft. (12,40 m).

Eminence - The Titan Yacht Sistership

Yacht Eminence is the first yacht launched in the Abeking & Rasmussen 78 metre series. She was an impressive luxury yacht with a unusual and unique beige hull and she was launched in 2008. Motor yacht C2 with a blue hull was launched in 2009 and the second of the Abeking & Rasmussen 78 series.

Yacht Titan, the third superyacht, was launched today and she has a grey hull, built from steel, with a white superstructure which was constructed in aluminium. Unlike her sister-ships luxury yacht Titan has some minor customisation in the profile look of her sundeck and radar mast areas. Titan can also be distinguished with her large doors which have been positioned on the side part of the forward full beam area. These doors are likely to be for water toy and tender side garages. Abeking are known for designing and building very large transom hatches on their modern motor yachts as they operate two well proven tender launching systems actually developed by A&R. This allows the yacht to employ smooth launching and recovering of the ship tender even whilst under way, or when approaching a anchorage or harbour.

The Abeking & Rasmussen 78 m Yacht series

Yacht Titan is likely to have similar specifications to Eminence, which has two 1492 kW Caterpillar main engines which give a very respectable speed of 16.5 knots. She was also built according to Lloyds Register of Shipping and MCA standards.

More information on the Titan yacht is pending including a full specification, photos and further images.

Motor yacht Titan will be delivered officially to her owner later in the 2010 summer after further finishing and sea tests. CharterWorld will keep you updated.

Titan Custom Yachts 63 Review

• By Chris Rabil
• September 12, 2022

Nestled among the rolling cornfields of coastal Maryland, Titan Custom Yachts is situated right in the backyard of the white marlin capital of the world. Owner Russ Garufi progressed to boatbuilding in 2001 after a lifetime career as a custom-home builder, and with nine delivered yachts to his name, Titan is just starting to hit its stride. After only a few months in operation, the new 63-footer, Lunatico , has already proved her worth—most notably with a 682-pound fish landed by owner Lance Converse to take the Blue Marlin Jackpot in July’s Bermuda Billfish Blast.

I first visited Titan in August 2021. The build was halfway complete but was starting to take form, and Palm Beach Towers was on-site to measure for what would surely be the proverbial cherry on top. As I combed through the boat, I was impressed to see the construction methods that were being used. All items were not just fastened but bonded, to ensure a tight, quiet ride, and I was looking forward to experiencing all of this for myself after delivery.

The call that Capt. Cory Gillespie was en route to Florida with Lunatico came in late spring. Under the gun to fish the Bahamas tournaments before heading directly to Bermuda in July, I was lucky to jump on during a rare gap in the boat’s schedule. As I walked down the dock, Lunatico ’s unique and custom-crafted Titan Gray hull set this boat apart from all others, and I marveled at how such a flawless finish could be achieved in a barn in the middle of farm country. When I asked Gillespie and mate, Capt. Andrew Kennedy, what their favorite aspect of the boat was, both exclaimed in unison, “The ride.”

Bridge and Tower

Wasting no time, I settled in on the bridge in the Release Marine Trillion navigator chair as we made our way toward Lake Worth Inlet. Two supersize 24-inch Garmin multifunctional displays straddled the single-lever helm pod. An additional Furuno display was mounted on the port side of the electronics suite and was paired to an Omni sonar. The all-star lineup was rounded out with a Furuno radar, Garmin autopilot and Sirius ­satellite-weather module.

The flip-down box located in the overhead provided room for the MAN engine displays and both Icom VHF radios. Another box housed twin Miya Epoch Super US-9 teaser reels and an Optimus steering display. The bridge featured wraparound seating with storage below, topped by attractive pleated cushions, and the three-piece Lexan enclosure nearly eliminated any blind spots. Knowing Gillespie personally, as well as his impressive resume, proved to me that this bridge was the result of years of experience at the helm and was laid out in perfect form.

Before pushing offshore, I scaled the tower, noticing that no expense was spared in this build: a Rupp triple-spreader Bigg Rigg outrigger system, recessed LED navigation lights, and forward and aft molded-in LED spreader lights that could provide daylight conditions on deck at the flip of a switch; up top found a near-full helm setup with Twin Disc controls, a Garmin display and a ­comfortable seat.

Watch: The Marlin team explores the fishery of the Andaman Sea off Myanmar in this episode of Bluewater Chronicles .

Performance

As we cleared the inlet, Gillespie pushed up the controls, and the MAN V-12 2000s jumped to life as we quickly got up to cruising speed, making passes up and down the beach in all directions while the engines quietly sang under our feet. This was a chamber-of-commerce type of day for Palm Beach, with air temps in the mid-80s, winds hovering around 5 knots, and the seas exhibiting a long Atlantic swell. Hardly challenging for this Titan hull, although the boat was full of fuel, tackle and supplies for the trek across the pond.

At 70 percent load, turning 1,800 rpm, the combined speeds netted 32 knots while burning an average of 113 gallons per hour. Pushing it up to a robust cruise of 38 knots, the boat projected an 80 percent load, turned 2,150, and burned 164 gph. The top end turned 2,350 rpm for a speed of 42 knots burning 200 gph.

As we slowed down, Gillespie worked the controls to really get this 63 ­dancing. As we backed around on imaginary fish, he put her through the paces. Lunatico was not only quiet, but also quick and nimble. The throttles were effortlessly bounced between forward and reverse, and the boat spun around on a dime as you felt the 4,000 horses instantly transferring the commands to the CJR propellers—a most important feature when tournament fishing with an unpredictable fish close to the leader.

Cockpit and Mezzanine

Beneath the fighting chair and hidden under custom cutouts in the teak deck were livewell inflow and outflow ports for external tanks to seamlessly blend in, with no visible hardware on the deck. The Seakeeper 18 HD is housed in the lazarette, as well as the Optimus steering pumps and livewell pumps. With a double-hinged deck hatch, there is plenty of room to slip in and out to service the equipment. The transom box was set up as a fish box, but it could also double as a livewell if needed.

Mezzanine seating provides a good vantage point, and an air-conditioning vent blows directly onto the seating area to provide relief from the tropical heat. Within the step there was no lack of refrigeration; nearly every box could cool or freeze, depending on the crew’s needs, with an additional giant freezer located under the mezzanine seat itself. A 600-pound-per-day Dometic ice maker filled an ice box on the starboard side. And last, but certainly not least, a Garmin display was hidden in a flip-down hatch overhead, with the ability to stream the sonar information and keep an eye on a pending bite.

A L-shaped sofa commands the portside salon aft, and beautiful teak cabinetry and trim gave off a gentle satin sheen. The plush, light-colored carpet is soft under the feet, and a flat-screen TV—motorized to drop out of sight—is paired to a Bose theater system. The galley sports Amtico flooring, four refrigerator/freezer drawers under custom Corian countertops, a cooktop hidden beneath the counter forward, a stainless-steel undermount sink, and a convection microwave oven behind the cabinetry. One of the overhead panels possesses a latch and hidden hinge to reveal an impressive custom drop-down rod-storage locker with LED lighting to bank 14 custom rods, as well as rod butts—certainly an unexpected showpiece. Touches such as this are what make a custom build truly custom.

Down the companionway you’ll find a three-stateroom/three-head layout. The starboard side features a double split-bunkroom, the master stateroom sits on the port side with a full-size king bed, and all the staterooms employ cedar-lined hanging closets with plenty of storage. The generous master head contains a full stand-up shower with a molded seat. Moving forward, a full head is on the starboard side with a full-size Bosch washer and dryer directly across from it.

One of my favorite features of this build is the forward stateroom. Instead of a single VIP berth, Garufi created one of the largest bunkrooms I’ve ever been in. Two stacked beds are mounted to starboard, with a single bed port. The amount of room between the two feels like you could really stretch out without worry of getting in your bunkmate’s way. A private head is located here as well, as is plenty of storage, and all the natural light you can ­handle—or not—via an overhead Bomar safety hatch.

With more transoceanic plans ahead, Lunatico certainly checks all the necessary boxes needed for a traveling gameboat, including speed, range, space and storage. My first experience on a Titan was an extremely positive one, and Gillespie is certain she will be raising big fish for years to come. And based on her performance so far, I agree.

The latest on the Titan submersible tragedy and what’s next in the investigation

Cameron told the BBC in an interview broadcast on Friday June 23, 2023 that he “felt in my bones” that the Titan submersible had been lost soon after he heard it had lost contact with the surface during its descent to the wreckage of the ocean liner at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.

The around-the-clock search for the missing Titan submersible engrossed the world for days, but after news of the catastrophic implosion that killed the pilot and his four passengers near the Titanic shipwreck, investigators are focusing on how it happened — and if it could have been prevented.

Deep-sea robots will continue searching the North Atlantic sea floor for clues. Investigators in Canada are looking at the Titan’s Canadian-flagged support ship. U.S. authorities are looking into other aspects of the tragedy.

The Titan , owned by undersea exploration company OceanGate Expeditions, had been chronicling the Titanic’s decay and the underwater ecosystem around the sunken ocean liner in yearly voyages since 2021.

Authorities and experts are seeking answers: Exactly when and why did the implosion occur? Will the victims’ bodies ever be found? What lessons are there for the future of undersea exploration?

Here’s what we know so far:

WHEN AND WHERE DID THE TITAN GO MISSING?

The craft submerged Sunday morning, and its support vessel lost contact with it about an hour and 45 minutes later, according to the Coast Guard.

The vessel was reported overdue about 435 miles (700 kilometers) south of St. John’s, Newfoundland, according to Canada’s Joint Rescue Coordination Centre in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

The Titan was launched from an icebreaker that was hired by OceanGate and formerly operated by the Canadian Coast Guard. The ship has ferried dozens of people and the submersible craft to the North Atlantic wreck site, where the Titan has made multiple dives.

WHAT HAPPENED ABOARD THE TITAN?

The vessel suffered a catastrophic implosion, killing all five aboard, sometime after it submerged Sunday morning. It’s not clear exactly when or where the implosion occurred, but a U.S. Navy acoustics system detected an “anomaly” Sunday that was likely the Titan’s fatal implosion.

The Coast Guard announced that debris from the submersible had been found and the end of rescue efforts Thursday, bringing a tragic close to a saga that included an urgent around-the-clock search and a worldwide vigil for the missing vessel.

A deep-sea robot discovered the debris, near the Titanic shipwreck, that authorities say came from the submersible.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OCCUPANTS WHEN THE TITAN IMPLODED?

Experts say the catastrophic implosion likely killed its pilot and four passengers instantly amid the intense water pressure in the deep North Atlantic .

Maritime researchers called an implosion the worst possible outcome of all the scenarios envisioned during the desperate round-the-clock search to find the missing vessel.

Experts had cautioned that under intense pressure at extreme depths the Titan’s hull could implode, which would result in instant death for anyone aboard.

While OceanGate Expeditions, which owned and operated the craft, touted the Titan’s roomier cylinder-shaped cabin made of a carbon-fiber , industry experts say it was a departure from the sphere-shaped cabins — considered ideal because water pressure is exerted equally on all areas — made of titanium used by most submersibles.

The 22-foot long (6.7-meter long), 23,000-pound (10,432-kilogram) Titan’s larger internal volume — while still cramped with a maximum of five seated people — meant it was subjected to more external pressure.

The water pressure at 12,500 feet (3,800 meters) below the surface at the site of the Titanic wreck is roughly 400 atmospheres or 6,000 pounds per square inch.

WHO WAS KILLED?

The Titan victims are : Oceangate chief executive and Titan pilot Stockton Rush; two members of a prominent Pakistani family, Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood; British adventurer Hamish Harding; and Titanic expert Paul-Henri Nargeolet.

Worldwide condolences have poured in, offering tributes to the men and support for their families.

“These men were true explorers who shared a distinct spirit of adventure, and a deep passion for exploring and protecting the world’s oceans,” OceanGate said in a statement. “We grieve the loss of life and joy they brought to everyone they knew.”

WHO REGULATES DEEP-SEA EXPEDITIONS?

The Titan’s voyage down into the North Atlantic highlights the murkily regulated waters of deep-sea exploration . It’s a space on the high seas where laws and conventions can be sidestepped by risk-taking entrepreneurs and the wealthy tourists who help fund their dreams. At least for now.

The Titan operated in international waters, far from the reach of many laws of the United States or other nations. It wasn’t registered as a U.S. vessel or with international agencies that regulate safety, nor was it classified by a maritime industry group that sets standards on matters such as hull construction.

Stockton Rush , the OceanGate Expeditions CEO and Titan pilot who was among the dead, had said he didn’t want to be bogged down by such standards.

WHAT’S NEXT?

The Coast Guard will continue searching near the Titanic for more clues about what happened to the Titan.

Officials say there is not a timeframe for when they will call off the effort, and the prospect of finding or recovering remains is unknown.

The Transportation Safety Board of Canada said Friday it’s launching an investigation involving the loss of the Titan that will focus on the cargo vessel Polar Prince.

Polar Prince is a Canadian-flagged ship that served as mothership to the Titan submersible. The Transportation Safety Board will investigate the Polar Prince in its role as a support vessel and will conduct a safety investigation into the circumstances of the operation, the agency said.

Experts say wrongful death and negligence lawsuits are also likely next in the Titan case — and they could be successful. But legal actions will face various challenges, including waivers likely signed by the Titan passengers that warned of the myriad ways they could die.

HOW MUCH DID THE SEARCH COST?

The cost of the search will easily stretch into the millions of dollars for the U.S. Coast Guard alone. The Canadian Coast Guard, U.S. Navy and other agencies and private entities also rushed to provide resources and expertise.

There’s no other comparable ocean search, especially with so many countries and even commercial enterprises being involved, said Norman Polmar, a naval historian, analyst and author based in Virginia.

The aircraft, alone, are expensive to operate.

The Pentagon has put the hourly cost at tens of thousands of dollars for turboprop P-3 Orion and jet-powered P-8 Poseidon sub hunters, along with C-130 Hercules, all utilized in the search.

Some agencies can seek reimbursements. But the U.S. Coast Guard is generally prohibited by federal law from collecting reimbursement pertaining to any search or rescue service, said Stephen Koerting, a U.S. attorney in Maine who specializes in maritime law.
