The vessel's new owner decided he didn't want to restore the 138-foot superyacht, but recreate her with modern systems.
the owner’s aim was clear: Preserve the exterior and rebuild the rest.
This simple, modern Scandinavian look by Van Geest Design is a stark contrast to the original glitzy, 1950s interior that included chic white telephones and violet-blue bathrooms. In other words, old engines, outdated electronics and other systems, not to mention high levels of noise, vibrations and emissions.
The owner wanted the exterior to look 1950s original, completed with architectural details like the flag pole bowsprit. The two original 500-hp diesel engines, each weighing 18 tons, have been replaced with two smaller, modern 600-hp diesels, weighing just two tons each. That means the original split-level engine room is much smaller, freeing up huge interior volume for guest areas.
