    Apparently there is a 75-meter yacht to prospectively launch this year from this company. Any one knows anything about it?

    Hi,

    It is one of what was bandied around a few years ago as "The Six Pack" where 6 boats the same were sold to 6 friends.

    Things got sticky almost straight away when each seemed to want different interior or features, this coupled with the fanciful way they were going to finance them spelt the end of all in late 2008 then this one which was the first and therefore the most advanced started again.

    I have made several enquiries for folks who might want to take over the unfinished hulls, it seems that the contracts were setup in such a way that they can't be sold by the yard for unpaid money, I am told that it not going to be easy to scrap the part built hulls either owing to another funny part of the contract.

    I could not find it so where ever it was discussed must not have been in a relevant thread so maybe that post should be moved if that is the case...... Since I cannot find the post, I do not know if it is new information that the dock she is in is (in the process of being) flooded, a la A.

    HDW 423 will be completed at Nobiskrug, not suprising because both belong to ADM.

    Focus Yacht Design is a new german design studio and it seems that they will debut with a big bang!Their first project is obviously the 75m ADM project. Check out their website and their great looking renderings of 423!

    Well her name is "Plan B". I wonder if this has anything to do with the expedition type yacht Plan B.

    Google "Superyacht hull 422" and you will find an article on boatinternational with a picture of her after launch.

    ************* has a whole series of shots of her under PlanB(ADMKiel).

    I would say she has a very beautiful tan!

    She looks good. Interesting how the, what I assume is the master has the balcony on the port side with none on the other.

    The lines of the yacht makes it look like its leaning forward.

    Well that may appear that way because the lines are actually slightly swooping down on an angle towards the bow and not generally as straight as most designs tend to be.

    Nice set of photos. She's delivered! The registry flag is flying from the stern in the photos.
