    Her design is really nice and smooth! Only thing I do not like is how the satcom domes look on her from front on.

    Project "Bellissimo" briefly appeared out of the shed today as she was moved to another shed no doubt for completion. The entire hull and superstructure shell is completed. She is really an impressive 88-meter yacht and the fabrication of the N&L design is well done.

    What is the location of the hull? Rendsburg?
  8. Justus

    Justus Guest

    Yes she layed in the same dock like MY Valerie or Phönix2 ,
    until their hull and structure were finished.
    But I saw that Bellissimo was docked out c.a 2 weeks ago,
    where was she in that time ?

    I have to agree. Pic from head on is just not "pretty". Looks like something is missing.

    Many refits for Lürssen at the moment...the 52,17 meter 'Battered Bull' from Feadship came to Lurssen Rendsburg yesterday.

    Hi,

    The initial short trials a new yacht does from Lurssen or Abeking are known as River trials.

    This enables the yards to make sure everything is working before they steam all the way out past Bremerhafen only to find that it doesn't.

    Thank you K!W! for explination !
    Also the refited Phönix2 left the yard.

    The managing company for Phoenix2 confirmed that she has been lengthened to 90.5m.

    Lurssen is also building a new 90m project being called Global. She appears to be an evolution of Valerie (which, imo, was an evolution of TV (Madsummer)).

    Besides these yachts, this company is also responsible for Bellissimo, Palmer Johnson's World, and Damen's Garcon.

    Clearly the management site has had quite an update!

    Two more yachts are under construction at Lurssen:
    'Newscot' 77meter succesor of Northern Star?
    and the 70 meter Project 'Island' sister of Martha Ann etc..

    I think Project Island might have been Martha Ann because I have not heard anything about a 70m new build at Lurssen and that project has been there for a long time. Newscot has also been on the website for years but that I believe is under construction, considering that the current Northern Star is for sale and this is what happened with Polar Star as well.

    Digging a bit deeper, it appears that Blellissimo may actually end up being 90m.

    Maybe , but I am shure that the projectname of Martha Ann was 'Shark'.

    Justus is correct, "Martha Ann" was project Shark in build.
