Symphony, superyacht de Bernard Arnaud aux multiples loisirs

Lancé en 2015 et construit par Feadship, Symphony est un superyacht de 101,5 m de long, propriété de l'homme d'affaires Bernard Arnaud. À bord, tout est conçu pour s'amuser et se détendre grâce à ses (très) nombreux équipements de loisirs.

Le plus grand yacht jamais construit aux Pays-Bas en 2015

Symphony est un superyacht de 101,5 m de long et de 14,10 m de large construit par le chantier néerlandais Feadship, sur son chantier de Kaag. Lancé en 2015, il est alors le premier yacht du constructeur à dépasser la barre des 100 m, mais aussi le plus grand yacht jamais construit aux Pays-Bas.

Symphony est né du travail commun de Tim Heywood et De Voogt Naval Architects, tandis que le design intérieur est signé Zuretti. Il est la propriété de l'homme d'affaires Bernard Arnault, Président-directeur général du groupe de luxe LVMH.

Sa coque à déplacement en acier lui permet de naviguer dans des contrées lointaines avec un maximum de résistance, tandis que sa superstructure en aluminium abrite de 6 ponts au plancher teck. Un système de stabilisateur permet de réduire le roulis et améliorer à la fois le confort en navigation comme au mouillage .

Six ponts pour s'amuser et se détendre

Ses six ponts dotés de larges terrasses offrent tout l'équipement nécessaire à la détente et aux loisirs. Ainsi, on retrouve sur la plage avant une immense hélisurface pour rejoindre le bateau directement en hélicoptère. Le sundeck abrite un salon d'observation, un bar et un spa. Mais la longue liste d'équipements ne s'arrête pas là !

Le Symphony est une véritable plateforme de divertissement avec écran de projection en plein air, son cinéma HD sur le pont inférieur, sa piste de danse, son salon de beauté, son practice de golf, sa salle de gym, sa salle de musique avec piano à queue ou encore sa bibliothèque .

Le clou du spectacle est sans aucun doute sa piscine de nage à contre-courant d'une longueur de 6 m dotée d'une cascade et d'un fond en verre transparent. Autre équipement digne d'un superyacht, pour se déplacer à travers les six ponts, le Symphony possède un ascenseur.

43 personnes à bord

À bord, 16 invités peuvent loger confortablement répartis dans 8 cabines : 1 master suite, 1 suite VIP et 6 cabines doubles toutes dotées de leur salle de bain. Un des ponts est entièrement dédié au propriétaire avec lit double, double salle de bain, dressings, sauna, bureau, terrasse avant avec spa ou encore terrasse arrière avec salle à manger pouvant accueillir jusqu'à 20 convives autour de la table. 27 membres d'équipage sont prévus pour s'occuper de la vie du bord.

Une capacité transatlantique

Avec 4 moteurs MTU 16V 4000 M73 d'une puissance de 1 909 CH et deux propulseurs, Symphony atteint une vitesse de croisière de 16 nœuds et une vitesse maximale de 22 nœuds. À la vitesse raisonnable de 14 nœuds, et grâce à ses immenses réservoirs de carburant de 256 000 litres, le yacht possède une autonomie de 5 500 milles. Ses réservoirs d'eau, lui permettant de pouvoir naviguer en autonomie de longs mois sont tout aussi démesurés puisqu'ils ont une capacité de 56 000 litres.

Symphony At Sea: A Glimpse Into LVMH CEO’s $150 Million Superyacht

Bernard Arnault, rumored to have been the third richest man in the world, owns one of the grandest yachts at sea. The impressive superyacht boasts a vast interior and eye-catching aesthetic that make it notable on any list. Mr. Arnault is the CEO of the French luxury goods company LVMH (Louis Vuitton, Moet, Hennessy ) and has caught the attention of yachting enthusiasts with his exceptional seabound treasure.

In 2015, the high-end yacht builder, Feadship, built the $150 million superyacht. Mr. Arnault purchased it, and named it Symphony , a musical metaphor for the billionaire’s undisturbed ocean getaway. It ranks in the top 50 of biggest yachts in the world measuring roughly 333 feet with a max speed of 21 knots, so it’s no wonder that it continues to catch stares wherever it’s docked.

On top of that, the elaborate interior makes this sizable structure stand out from the rest. Zuretti Interior Design, a French studio specializing in luxury superyachts, took on the task of perfecting it. The artisan space was inspired by residences in Bali and Thailand. The walls and floors were covered in light wash wood panels that suggest a hint of ‘upscale tropicale’ . Meanwhile, neutral furniture with gold decor tells a luxe story. On the outside, she has a clean navy blue trim close to sea level that draws the eye to her bright white finish.

This stunning yacht can house nearly 20 guests and has space below deck for a crew of 38. The glamorous owner’s suite includes a private deck with access to an intimate sauna experience and even better views.

This mega yacht has no shortage of amusements. The aft deck has an incredible glass-bottom pool while the bow is taken over by a sleek helipad. A fully-equipped gym also resides here along with a pop-up golf tee. Toys in tow include inflatables, a slide, jet skis, and sea bobs.

Last we heard, the billionaire’s not chartering his vessel, but his own personal guests will take interest in some of the unique features. Those curious about the mechanics behind the craft can have a museum-like experience on board with access to a massive display that tracks speed, rpm, and even allows a glimpse at the underwater camera.

Mr. Arnault has connections in the industry, but he remains quite private amidst it all. Not only is he a shareholder in Dior, but he owns the yacht shipyard Royal Van Lent where his yacht was built. His wallflower behavior spurred his desire to trade in his private jet , but thankfully, Symphony encompasses the calm that he continually seeks. It’s doubtful he’ll part ways with her anytime soon.

The French fashion tycoon is one the world's ultimate taste-makers and his ownership of the super yacht Symphony is a proof that he likes the combination of class and beauty which comes with a price.

Bernard Arnault is the proud owner of the largest Feadship to be ever made according to the Yacht Habor. The CEO of the French multinational luxury goods conglomerate, LVMH, owns the luxury mega yacht which is worth $150 million. It is not surprising that Bernard Arnault would spend so much for a luxury yacht since he has a stunning net worth of $93.5 billion and currently among the top ten billionaires in the world and recognized as the richest man in France.

Arnault first ventured into the yacht industry back in 2008 when he led the acquisition of the British yacht manufacturer called Princess Yachts. Since then LVMH has been working closely with the world leading brand of custom-built luxury mega-yachts, Feadship. It was in 2015 when Arnault decided to buy Symphony for $150 million. The super yacht has about estimated running costs of $10 to 15 million per year and currently not available for charter.

The Superyacht Symphony comes with eight huge staterooms that can fit about sixteen guests and a comfortable berthing that can accommodate about 27 crew members on board the yacht. It also has a private deck for the owner. It is created to accommodate about thirty six passengers. The exteriors of the yacht were designed by the world class renowned company Tim Heywood Design. The interiors on the other hand were aesthetically designed with the décor of the yacht being done by the one and only Zuretti Interior Design. The Symphony has been constructed by the Feadship at the Royal Van Lent Shipyard as a simple Project 808.

The luxury yacht is currently among the most sought-after private vessels . Bernard Arnault’s luxury vehicle at the sea is far more than par excellence. It is powered by a 2,415 hp Wärtsilä engine which comes with a powerful battery bank and about three generator sets. It also houses the string of amenities of the yacht such as the appointed entertainment areas, the al fresco bar area for parties and events and the state-of-the-art kitchen that is serving stunning decadent French delights. It is also a 101-meter luxury yacht that was built at the Royal Van Lent Shipyard. Symphony has a steel hull that has an aluminum superstructure. The yacht has complied with the amended Passenger Yacht Code (PYC).

The luxury yacht is said to be an eco-friendly yacht which uses a hybrid propulsion technology and powered by a 4x MTU 16V4000M73 engine. Due to the advance hybrid propulsion technology, the yacht can store energy in its battery bank that can work together with its diesel engines. The main engine on the other hand works hand in hand with the generators and modern battery bank that were attached to the yacht. It uses about 30% less than the energy that a normal yacht uses. The maximum speed of the yacht is about 21 knots and the cruising speed is about 10 knots. The Symphony was ranked 50 th out of the top 100 superyacht around the world with a 101.5 meter six deck. The structure of the yacht was made by the De Voogt Naval Architects. The floors and ceilings of the yacht are encased in a light wood panel which was complemented by the w ooden furniture with accents of gold and natural tones .

The Symphony contains luxury features such as the 6 meter glass-bottom swimming pool located on the main deck, an outdoor cinema that was aesthetically placed on the bridge deck and a stunning Jacuzzi on the yacht’s sundeck. The owner’s deck is also equipped with two bathrooms, sauna, forward terrace that has a Jacuzzi as well, a private office space, a spacious lounge and dressing rooms. Since the wife of Arnault, Helene Mercier, is a concert pianist, there is also a piano on board. The owner’s deck also has deck area perfect for lounging with a dining table that can accommodate about 20 people. It also has two elevators for passengers to use and one elevator even features a 15-metre interactive video screen which can play video footages upon the request of the guests.

From a sailing yacht owned by a russian billionaire industrialist to the luxury launch of the patek philippe ceo, here are the best billionaire-owned boats on the water….

Words: Jonathan Wells

There’s something about billionaires and big boats . Whether they’re superyachts or megayachts, men with money love to splash out on these sizeable sea-going giants. And that all began in 1954 — with the big dreams of Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis.

Onassis, keen to keep his luxury lifestyle afloat when at sea, bought Canadian anti-submarine frigate HMCS Stormont after World War II.

Monaco Yacht Club: An Exclusive Oasis For Marine Lovers

Looking down on the Yacht Club from Monaco’s exclusive seawater Spa, “ Thermes Marins ”, the new club-house really is a magnificent icon of multi-decked architecture – inaugurated in 2014 and designed by internationally renowned architect Lord Norman Foster.

Only in the Principality’s marina could you confuse this giant structure for the yachts around it that it resembles – a yacht mirage with a gorgeous deck with luxurious swimming pool and terraces for dancing. Splendid enough for meetings of the most discerning yacht enthusiasts, including the glitterati and “Three Comma” billionaires that frequent it.

Yachts Beyond the Reach of Mere Mortals

Some of the largest and most expensive yachts in the world dock here to take in the city’s pleasures, particularly during the iconic Monaco Yacht Show. You can wander around marvelling at all of the gadgets designers can inlay on these boats like the 348-foot-long AMADEA one of the largest and most distinctive superyachts in the world with its six distinctive guest decks. Or perhaps gaze at the 365-foot-long TIS, one of the largest and most regal yachts to be launched this year.

These superyachts, like the Yacht Club itself are like private islands and wouldn’t look out of place in a James Bond movie. If billionaires Bernard Arnault or Larry Page or Larry Ellison come calling, Monaco Yacht Club sets the stage perfectly.

Home of the Grimaldi Dynasty

For over 600 years from the 12th century onwards, the Grimaldi stronghold at Port Hercule, including where the Yacht Club now preens itself, was one of the prized naval assets on the Mediterranean. Its strategic location served more than once to change the course of history.

It was around the time of the reign of Charles III of Monaco that the Principality’s reputation as an international haven of luxury and wealth took off. And Charles III had the vision to encourage the development of Monaco as a magnet for international regattas of renown to which the world flocked.

Historic Regatta Heaven

The first of these regattas were held in the bay of Monaco in 1862, so successful that in 1888 the “Société des Régates” was established by Prince Charles III and his son Prince Albert I , affectionately known as the “Oceanographer Prince”.

Almost a century of famous regattas preceded the founding in 1953 by Prince Rainier and presided over by Prince Albert II since 1984, the Yacht Club de Monaco. The Club brings together more than 2000 members from 66 nationalities. Many of the world’s most prestigious private yachts fly the Yacht Club de Monaco’s burgee, testimony to its unique position in the International yachting world.

Prince Albert’s Presidency

In April 1984, with Prince Albert’s Presidency, he developed new international events such as the Primo Cup, the biggest gathering of monotype yachts in the Mediterranean Sea. Prince Albert also put emphasis on classic Yachting with the organization from 1994 of the Monaco Classic Week for vintage and classic yachts, the Prada Challenge for Classic Yachts.

Notably, it was the first visit of Atlantic 2010 (replica of the 1903 three-mast schooner on which Charlie Barr in 1905 set the best time for an Atlantic crossing) to the Principality. Another icon, the SS Delphine (1921) steam-boat made a welcome return. It was aboard this beauty that three world leaders, Stalin, Roosevelt and Churchill, negotiated at least part of the 1945 Yalta Agreement.

Yacht Seasons are typically opened with ultra-private concerts at YCM with celebrities like Sir Elton John in 2016, Duran Duran in 2017, and Sting last year. It was yet another global star Lionel Richie singing “All Night Long” this September who delighted the many boat owners and YCM members. “All Night Long” was attended by YCM President, Prince Albert II and a host of international personalities including actor-producer Samuel L. Jackson, basketball legend Magic Johnson, Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba and fashion designer Domenico Dolce, one of the two behind the eponymous brand D&G.

Regatta and Sports Heaven with a Golden Future

The Monaco Yacht Club from its beginnings embraced and has nurtured a prestige Regatta program that has accelerated and taken on new dimensions under Prince Albert’s Presidency.

It is worth mentioning the Primo Cup again as it has quickly established itself as the big meeting that opens the season in the Mediterranean for Europe’s one-design elite. Just a few other examples of stand-out Regattas enjoyed by YCMmembers include:

Monaco Swan One Design,  (9th-13th April 2019) organized in conjunction with the Yacht Club de Monaco,  was the first event in the 2019 Nations Trophy Mediterranean League.

Monaco Globe Week with the IMOCA 60  – 60-foot monohulls being among the fastest modern racing monohulls have raced on a course totalling 1,300 nautical miles embracing some of the most emblematic marks in the Western Mediterranean.

Monaco Sportsboat Winter Series  offers a monthly programme alternating high level regattas and training weekends for onedesigns.

As well as the Primo Cup another innovation worth a double mention here is  Monaco Classic Week. Persuaded that the reading of the past holds keys for the future Prince Albert fostered the creation and coordination during five years of a unique circuit for vintage and classic yachts, the Prada Challenge for Classic Yachts, without forgetting the acquisition of Tuiga in 1995, since becoming the flagship of the YCM. More recently the wave continued with the launching in 2005 of the “La Belle Classe” label.

The whole yachting world continues to look to Monaco to organize its most prestigious events. Within the last 12 months, 200 guests from the America’s Cup community from around the world gathered at the Yacht Club de Monaco to celebrate the launch of  the Prada Cup – the Challenger Selection Series for the 36th America’s Cup  to be presented by Prada in January 2021 in Auckland – deemed as “ the quest for oldest trophy in sport ”, the America’s Cup. Not to forget  World Rowing with the  Prince Albert II Challenge , a 6000m coastal race organised by the Societe Nautique de Monaco.

The Enthusiasm and Promise of Monaco’s Youth at YCM

Looking to the future is the Monaco Sports Academy which provides support to gifted young Monaco sailors and sportsmen taking on the world. The Academy is a close collaboration between the Yacht Club de Monaco, presided by Prince Albert and its General Secretary Bernard d’Alessandri, and Philippe Ghanem who is an active member of the Club. They share a common goal: to help young athletes living in Monaco reach the highest level in sport.

Also founded in 1970 by Prince Rainier III, the Sports Section of Y.C.M. adapts training to youngsters from as young as age six from initiation to competition and at every age.

Look out for the Monaco Optimist Team Race from 9-12 January 2020. The regatta is reserved for 20 teams of young sailors, all under 14. YCM invites the most competitive clubs with emphasis on tactics and above all team-work.

Full of youthful energy and promise is  the Monaco Solar & Energy Boat Challenge  next held on 30 June-4 July 2020. The Yacht Club de Monaco, in collaboration with the International Powerboating Federation (UIM) and Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation organises the Solar & Energy Boat Challenge which is unique in the world.

How to become a new member of the Yacht Club

Anyone wishing to become a member of the Yacht Club de Monaco needs to be introduced by two “sponsors” from YCM. The sponsor’s letter of introduction will explain the applicant’s motives for joining the Club. Prince Albert, President of the Yacht Club, presides over the meetings of the admissions’ committee. The role of the sponsor is essential. The latter, must integrate him into the life of the Yacht Club, accompany him, present him to the other members but also involve him in organized events, whether they be social or sports.

The sponsor also undertakes to ensure that his “protégé” embraces the YCM’s philosophy and values, will actively engage in the Club’s life and keep its reputation at the pinnacle.

A Regal Club and Natural Host of Prestigious Events

The Yacht club reaches well beyond being a club for owners of yachts and superyachts. It is actually an immense infrastructure akin to a multi-tiered island that organises not only events connected to the yachts and regattas but also all kind of sports and social events, dances and entertainment. High society balls, conferences, exclusive business gatherings and prestigious auctions are just part of the kaleidoscope of activity.

The members of the club and their guests have at their disposition restaurants with Michelin Star chefs (including the exclusive 1909) gyms and a library – and a spa-zone, not to mention the gorgeous pool and terraces overlooking the azure bay. There is a truly great bar, a hive of social contact, with an international reputation and winner of awards for its unique cocktails and the skills of its bar staff. Endless discovery is to be found in each private niche of this island-club.

The richest men in the world

In the global economic landscape, the list of the world’s richest men is often subject to rapid changes, influenced by market fluctuations, technological innovations, and corporate acquisitions. Below is an overview of today’s wealth titans, based on the most recent information.

Elon Musk: The Visionary Innovator

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, is often at the top of the list of the world’s richest people. His fortune primarily stems from Tesla shares, the electric vehicle manufacturer that has revolutionized the automotive industry. Besides Tesla, Musk is known for his ambitious space projects with SpaceX, his company aiming to make humanity a multi-planetary species. With his recent acquisition of Twitter, now renamed X, and the continuous expansion of his companies, his wealth keeps growing.

Bernard Arnault: The Luxury Tycoon

Bernard Arnault, chairman and CEO of the luxury giant LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy), has solidified his position as one of the world’s richest men. LVMH owns a vast array of prestigious brands in fashion, watches, and wines and spirits. Arnault is known for his skill in turning traditional brands into contemporary luxury symbols, constantly expanding his empire with strategic acquisitions.

Jeff Bezos: The E-commerce Pioneer

Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, has changed the way the world shops. Although he stepped down as CEO, Bezos still holds a significant stake in Amazon, which fuels his immense wealth. Besides Amazon, Bezos owns The Washington Post and the space company Blue Origin, through which he aims to make space travel commercially accessible.

Larry Ellison: The Software Master

Larry Ellison, co-founder of Oracle, one of the world’s largest software companies, is another prominent name on the list of the richest men. His company specializes in database software and cloud solutions, maintaining a dominant position in the tech sector. Ellison is known for his luxurious lifestyle, including numerous properties and a luxury yacht.

Warren Buffett: The Oracle of Omaha

Warren Buffett, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, is revered as one of the wisest and most successful investors of all time. His long-term investment strategy and prudent approach have allowed Berkshire Hathaway to own a wide range of companies in various sectors. Despite his immense wealth, Buffett is known for his modest lifestyle and philanthropic commitment, having pledged to donate most of his fortune to charity.

These men not only top the wealth rankings but also profoundly influence the global economy with their innovations, investments, and visions. Their ability to anticipate trends and adapt to changes makes them prominent figures in the business and entrepreneurial world. With the continuously evolving global market, it will be interesting to see how this economic elite will change in the coming years.

Testimonials.

Good afternoon, sweet Shannon! You think of everything. Your sweet kindness and thoughtfulness is very much appreciated. This has been the trip of a lifetime. It was beyond magical and the most incredibly amazing experience of my life. From the boat, the crew, the food, being with my family, the beach-set ups, the fun games, to the essential oil towels we were greeted with every time we stepped on the boat, it was truly an experience of a lifetime. So many great memories! I’m still pinching myself. Thank you for everything!!

WOW!!!!! You certainly recommended a fantastic boat. The crew is great. The chef Adrian is the best! Josh, Mike and Paula can’t be better. We are having a wonderful time. Thank you, and thank you again.

For my first Yacht charter, I trusted you with choosing the most outgoing crew, the best Yacht with a great layout, and a once-in-a-lifetime trip from start to finish. Well, it’s now twice in a lifetime and maybe three times in a lifetime. I’m sold on the chartering life! I didn’t have any bites on my leg, but I certainly got the charter bug!

Captain Vince was an outstanding Captain. He made our family charter together very special. The crew even put on a firework show for us. The weather was outstanding and everything you did for us is very appreciated. We look forward to returning onboard!

We had a once-in-a-lifetime adventure in Croatia onboard charter yacht SOVEREIGN. You went above and beyond for us, planned every little activity that we absolutely loved and you’ve got us hooked on the Yachting lifestyle! From the chef’s food to the crew’s outgoing smiles, every day we were in heaven.
