Lürssen puts 122 m long “Kismet” on the water

With the “Kismet”, Lürssen has delivered its latest mega yacht. The 122-meter-long ship was built at the Kröger shipyard in Schacht-Audorf.

The “Kismet” (project name Jag) was commissioned by a long-standing Lürssen customer, the company announced. As usual, neither further details nor the price were disclosed. [ds_preview]

Most recently, Lürssen built the “Cali” and the “Luminance“. All that is known about the latest new build is that the elegant exterior design comes from the design office Nuvolari Lenard and the interior was created by Reymond Langton Design. Listed as highlights are a two-storey, open entrance with extensive video walls, a Nemo cinema on the lower deck with a 150-inch TV and an underwater seating area, as well as a luxurious 7-star spa area.

The silhouette of the 17.8 m wide and 4.8 m deep “Kismet” is characterised by a majestic mast and a leaping jaguar bow figure. “We believe that with our technical expertise, we have fulfilled the owner’s wish and vision for a yacht that will be timeless and ahead of its time for many years to come,” says shipyard boss Peter Lürßen.

The MTU engines will accelerate the private vessel to 20 knots. There will be space on board for 20 guests and 40 crew members. Industry experts estimate the price at 360 million dollars and assume that the owner is Shahid Khan. The Pakistani-American billionaire is said to have a private fortune of 7.8 billion dollars.
