    Hull 6507 is slowly coming together. Have seen a hull section for this massive yacht being towed from Pella Sietas Elbe Cranz Finkenweder. The section is huge, larger than the tug towing it. It will be a while before we see anything of this vessel. One thing is certain, hull 6507 will be the largest yacht Abeking & Rasmussen has built so far, easily surpassing the 98.40-meter "Aviva". French designer Joseph Dirand has penned both the exterior and interior in collaboration with A&R. With the experienced garnered from the installation of the Neptune Lounge aboard the 74.5-meter "Elandess", the feature is expected to be done onboard hull 6507 as well. A submarine is anticipated to be part of the armada of toys onboard and one can expect a large pool.

    Hull 6507 will be the largest superyacht completed by Abeking & Rasmussen when it is delivered in 2022...However, the yard inked a confidential project that is going to be bigger, at over 120-meters...that will then take over from 6507 as the largest (in the future). Nothing is known about the new 120plus meter project.

    Curious to see 6507. As far as I know the only yacht designed by Jopseh Dirand is a "modest" 26m Otam.

    I've read that her launching is coming close.

    Interesting combination of a modern hull with a classical superstructure. Not only that, but if you look at the hull by itself, it has a large sailing yacht feel to it.

    Wow just wow! I saw the first images yesterday and I found it stunning, now after watching the video I'm even more impressed. Its rare to get an owner at this level with this much gusto. Tons of outdoor space, 118 meter that looks smaller than it is, and a paint job like a dark mirror. Praying that the interior is at this level as well. Can't wait to see more of her.

    The interior is by the same Joseph Dirand. So it should be interesting but not shocking.

    She also features anchors, that are mounted below the waterline, so the bow has cleaner design.

    Yes that lounge is fully underwater unlike the few that exist today which are partially below the waterline ("Savannah", "Elandess"). M/S/Y "A" is supposed to have a fully underwater lounge too but no actual photos have been seen of this.

    For 'A', I'd guess it looks just like the render...

    Even the mast has traditional feel to it.
