Lurssen Launches 55m Superyacht Project 13800
\n \tLurssen has announced the successful launch of Project 13800 earlier today. Scheduled for delivery in summer this year, exactly three years on from contract signature.
\n Designed inside and out by British studio Bannenberg & Rowell, Project 13800 boasts a bold and forthright profile with unconventional use of colours. The yard described her \u2018museum quality interior furniture pieces\u2019 in a statement, emphasising the meticulous attention to detail not only in the living areas but technical spaces too. Built for an experienced owner, Project 13800 was born out of a clear brief for her owners\u2019 lifestyle requirements.\u00a0
\nDickie Bannenberg comments, \u2018We are excited to see 13800 emerge from her shed. The initial concept was influenced by our studies based on the classic yacht Carinthia VI, designed by Bannenberg Senior, and built by L\u00fcrssen in 1973. Every centimetre of interior and exterior space usage has to be presented, discussed and agreed with the owners, and this has led to many inspiring discussions. We really look forward to seeing her completed over the coming months, including a spectacular interior.\u2019
\nBest known for its 80m+ stars of the Top 100 largest yachts in the world, Project 13800 might be considered a deviation from Lurssen\u2019s typical size range. The yard has however affirmed its commitment to re-establishing itself as a serious contender for the 55 – 75m range.
\nThis consolidated commitment to growth comes alongside Lurssen\u2019s increasing recognition as a serious player in the refit sector, after re-delivering 110m Kaos (ex Jubilee) just last year.\u00a0
\nManaging Partner Peter L\u00fcrssen comments, \u2018We are very grateful for the client\u2019s trust in us to build his dream of a bespoke 55-metre yacht. The OR-team has fantastic experience with that size of yacht and it has been a very fruitful collaboration so far.\u2019<\/p>\n
