Quick Enquiry

"I once had a client who told me, “I will put your name on the side of my boat if it’s good, but if the boat is not good, your name will appear three times as big.” We were brought up with the sense that it is a very personal obligation for the family when we sign a contract to deliver a yacht that the client expects. I cannot go to a client and say “One of my guys made a mistake.” He would say “Is he Mr. Lürssen, or are you Mr. Lürssen?” But a successful delivery is also a great reward. I take the relationships of my clients very personally." - Peter Lürssen of Lürssen Yachts (courtesy SuperYachtTimes)

Three time’s a charm for the owner of Flying Fox . Not only did he want hearts to beat faster when guests came aboard this magnificent 446-foot Lürssen, the owner wanted to make sure he included every whim and fantasy for his own pleasure. Think features like the two-deck spa, a professional dive center, two helipads for corporate helicopters, the world’s largest transverse swimming pool and, naturally, a cryotherapy center. He also staffed it former Olympic athletes and British ex-military to provide a first-class crew.

The good news is that Flying Fox can be shared by the rest of us—or some of us, for about $4 million per week. The length makes her the  largest yacht available for charter . Delivered in 2019, she has just about every luxurious amenity imaginable. In a very real sense, she doesn’t just raise the bar—she sets a new one.

The first glimpse of the turquoise Espen Øino exterior is a quick reveal of the scope of the six-decked vessel. On the aft end, the 40-foot swimming pool immediately catches the eye. The largest transverse pool on any yacht, it has a retractable wall that can divide the water in two. That gives guests a choice between fresh water or salt, and temperatures ranging from steaming to icy.

The yacht has every possible toy imaginable—and many others that surprise, including a professional dive center, cryotherapy spa, and an onboard hospital.  G. Plisson for Imperial

The yacht’s two helipads also offer owners and guests a degree of flexibility. The 60-foot spot on the stern is the primary landing area for the owner’s H175 Airbus helicopter, with a second 49-foot helipad on the bow. Capable of carrying 12 guests, the H175 is one of the few VIP-configured models on the market. It’s also the owner’s favorite mode of transport.

Built for private use but conceived with the potential for charter, Flying Fox took three years to design. The owner wanted to make sure he included everything he’d missed on his previous two yachts. Imperial Yachts managed the build and is now overseeing charter.

“The original design process was about finding the balance between what the client was expecting and what was possible in terms of technology,” Eric Lepeingle, Imperial’s head of sales and charter, told Robb Report during an exclusive virtual tour. “The idea of having a meticulously designed yacht that also delivers on a technological front really pleased him.”

This view of the stern gives a sense of the vast but proportional scale of the 446-ft. gigayacht. Not pictured is the 60-ft. helipad on the swim platform.  G. Plisson for Imperial

Beyond her sheer size, the intersection of technology with gracious living is what defines Flying Fox . A large sundeck converts into a dance floor by night, offering live music, private dining and fireworks for the ultimate shindig. The 1,300-foot, two-decked wellness spa is one of the signature accomplishments of the design. Its “sea lobby,” with heated limestone floors and louvred oak paneling, one of the inspirations from interior designer Mark Berryman, makes a beautiful welcoming area, while the sauna, hammam, jacuzzi and relaxation room (with a fold-down balcony at sea level) set the tone.

Flying Fox also has the first cryo-sauna ever installed on a yacht, bringing the spa experience to the next level. It has an antechamber set at -40 ̊F, followed by a main chamber at -116 ̊F. Cryotherapy is typically favored by elite athletes for muscle regeneration. “When he’s on board, the owner enjoys kitesurfing, jet skiing, diving,” says Lepeingle. “He wants to be able to recover quickly. He also wants charter guests to be able to enjoy any activity, so the yacht is designed to anticipate all requirements.”

Adjacent to the Zen-themed spa is the dive center, which includes a three-person decompression chamber and the option to dive depths of up to 328 feet. “To date, our charter guests have enjoyed diving depths of no more than 165 feet,” says Lepeingle, “but if people want to push their limits, we can help them to do that in the most secure way.”

Designer Espen Øino took great care to ensure that the exterior spaces flowed easily into each other.  G. Plisson for Imperial

Supporting this ethos are the 54 onboard crew. The sports, gym and diving instructors are either former Olympic athletes or ex-British military. The helicopter is serviced by a dedicated pilot and engineer, and the onboard hospital (directly connected to a mainland hospital on a 24/7 basis) has a permanent medic. “Most the crew are typically ex-military because the owner believes military personnel have discipline and experience that normal crew don’t,” says Lepeingle.

Another prerequisite of the owner is the aft open-air galley. Five different types of ovens—tandoor, pizza, barbecue and two rotisseries—are joined by two teppanyaki grills and an alfresco dining area that seats 24 guests. Its five chefs cater for multiple diets and cuisines, all freshly prepared in full view. “One of the rotisseries can fit an entire lamb,” says Lepeingle. “The banquet opportunities are exceptional.”

As a PYC-classified yacht Flying Fox sleeps up to 25 guests, with a crew-to-guest ratio of two to one. The 328-square-foot master suite on the main deck stretches the full 74-foot beam width and takes in a dedicated salon, gas firepit and private jacuzzi (one of three on board). Even the onboard 20-foot irrigated trees are well-watered.

The yacht has two helipads on the bow and stern. Pictured is its Airbus C175 corporate helicopter, the owner’s favorite mode of transport.  G. Plisson for Imperial

Flying Fox has mostly cruised the Eastern Mediterranean, with Turkey and Greece being the owner’s preferred cruising grounds. The yacht did a stint last winter in the northern most atolls of the Maldives. Currently in port in the Mediterranean, she will be heading to Croatia this summer and is available for charter through Imperial.

Here’s an exclusive video tour of the yacht. Check out other images below.

Imperial Yachts CEO Evgeniy Kochman, who personally attended over 50 meetings with the customer, studying over the GA for an average of 14 hours at a time, says the owner was extremely involved with every detail, “from the engine room to the observation deck.” The owner’s prior fleet of superyachts was instrumental in determining the design. “It seemed obvious to integrate their facilities into one fully operational superyacht,” Kochman adds.

Inside Superyacht Flying Fox

Guest accommodation.

Flying Fox features 10 spacious guest suites. They are arranged in a row in front of the gym, allowing visitors to go straight from their beds to work out or have a morning swim. These rooms are all of the same sizes and open onto one of the long side decks, which divides into large fixed balconies in various configurations by hidden sliding panels. The spaces are modern and calming, made to induce a state of relaxation for guests chartering the yacht.

On the upper deck, the master suite is located. It continues following the same design sensibilities and embellishments found in the guest suites, creating a cohesive experience throughout the vessel. A 48-square-metre bathroom is centred with an oval bath and a large shower that are all spaced outboard for views through double-fronted sliding doors onto the vast private terrace that runs around the front of the suite.

The owner’s suite is another spectacular space, fitted with his and hers dressing rooms, a cosy living room, and a spa pool, located on the enormous private terrace. Additionally, the suite houses multiple workspaces – a meeting room and the owner’s office, accessed through a studio.

Social living spaces

When it comes to social living spaces, the saloon found to Port on the Upper Deck is the perfect place for friends and family to gather. It’s a leafy space, full of plants including two spectacular ficus trees. The lush plants are all on automated watering schedules to ensure they remain healthy. Bringing a sense of cosiness to the saloon is a real wood fireplace. It works like a typical fireplace, but with insulated ducts that route smoke up the mast with the help of forced extraction.

A dining saloon adjacent to the bridge deck saloon features a large table to seat all the yacht’s guests. A centre tank, complete with vibrant artificial corals, gives a pop of colour while also separating the areas (which can be entirely sequestered using sliding screens). The dining area features an open, outdoor kitchen that allows guests to sit at the counter and watch the chef work, or at the extendable dining table.

The facilities

Alongside all the amazing living spaces, Flying Fox also houses many luxurious facilities for guests to enjoy.

There’s a well-stocked superyacht gym full of the latest gym equipment, a terrace for fresh-air yoga, and a gym “menu” spelling out what’s on offer for more energetic guests. It’s staffed by ex-British military instructors to give guests much-needed motivation to complete their workouts. 

Alongside the gym is the vessel’s impressive 400sqm 2-floor Spa. It features heated limestone floors and louvred oak panelling centrepieces, providing individuals wishing to escape the outer world. 

Perhaps the most breathtaking addition to the yacht is her spectacular pool. The 12-meter swimming pool, which runs transversely on the main deck, is a technological feat and a first for a superyacht of this size. 

Toys and tenders

Flying Fox yacht houses a wide range of toys and tenders in her expansive tender garage. Inside, you can find five tenders and a plethora of toys ranging from flyboards and hoverboards to Seabobs and windsurfs. The facility is also designed to suit the requirements for using gasoline to fuel the tenders. Here is a full list of all the toys and tenders onboard:

Toy brands on board:

• Seadoo – 3x GTX 300 
• Seabob – 4x F5S
• Poseidon – 4x Se7en Rebreathers + diving equipment

FLYING FOX Yacht -Extravagant $400M Superyacht

The $400 million FLYING FOX yacht was completed in 2019 by the German shipyard Lürssen.

Flying fox is one of the biggest yachts in the world measuring in at a length of 136 meters and capable of accommodating 22 guests in addition to the 54 crew members that help with daily operations.

FLYING FOX yacht interior

Designed by Mark Berryman, the interior of the FLYING FOX yacht features soft colors and timeless but modern furnishings.

Only the highest quality materials were used in the interior of the vessel. Up to 25 guests can be accommodated in eleven spacious guest cabins.

Each of the cabins opens onto a large deck that can be divided into private balconies using custom sliding panels. A crew of up to 55 members finds space in accommodation below deck.

The team includes former military members and even Olympians, who design custom fitness programs for the guests aboard the vessel.

FLYING FOX also has a cinema, a hospital with a decompression chamber, and a spa area of 400 square meters that stretches across two floors.

Guests can utilize a luxury sauna, a hammam, a fitness room, and a beauty salon. For even more comfort, a set of elevators takes the crew and guests from deck to deck.

FLYING FOX has a steel hull and a massive aluminum superstructure. With a length of 136 meters (446 ft), a beam of 20.5 meters (67 ft), and a draft of 5 meters (16.4 ft), she weighs in at 9,000 tons.

Powered by two MTU engines, she can achieve top speeds of 20 knots.

At a cruising speed of 15 knots, the megayacht can reach destinations more than 6500 nautical miles away.

She is equipped with the latest steering technology, which simplifies the maneuvering of the 136 meters (446 ft) long vessel.

The exterior of the FLYING FOX yacht was designed by Espen Øino , a well-known luxury yacht designer.

She features a classical yacht design with teak decks complimented by beautiful white elements.

She has an impressive 12-meter pool on the main deck, a Jacuzzi on the sundeck, two helipads, and a spacious beach club area aft of the vessel.

A great variety of toys including three jet skis, four sea bobs, and professional scuba diving equipment ensure the guests are entertained at all times.

Not to forget, the FLYING FOX has a total of seven tenders as well as an Airbus H155 helicopter.

The yacht also has its own dive center with a professional team licensed to teach deep-sea diving to those interested.

The purchase price for the FLYING FOX yacht was US $400 million in 2019. She is currently available for charter and depending on the season, a week onboard will cost close to US $3-4 million.

The annual running price of the yacht lies between US $25 and $40 million.

ALL ABOUT SUPER YACHT FLYING FOX

The nearly 450-foot yacht FLYING FOX is now the world’s largest luxury yacht charter vessel.  She is 11 feet longer than previous champion yacht,  SERENE (439 feet).  Serene is now a private yacht.  Not surprisingly, both yachts are built by the same shipyard.  Furthermore, both yachts are designed by the same architect.  Lürssen-built yacht FLYING FOX in 2019.  The same house built SERENE in 2011.   The lead exterior designer for both yachts is Espen Oeino (also known as Espen Øino).  Each yacht is unique beyond this point.  For example, Reymond Langton Design created the interior spaces for SERENE.  Mark Berryman is the designer for superyacht FLYING FOX.

FLOATING SPA

Whereas SERENE had a formal design, yacht FLYING FOX has a casual, spa-like feel.  This is in line with the growing trend for wellness yacht charter.  Luxury is important.  How luxury enhances relaxation and casual guest entertainment is now more important.  Tuxedos and cocktail attire have given way to women’s linen dresses and men’s dressy-casual clothing.

WELLNESS AND WATERSPORTS

The owner of Lürssen yacht FLYING FOX is passionate about wellness and watersports.  Indeed, you see two decks of space dedicated to recreation when you board the yacht from the swim platform.  The swim platform is massive and over 22 meters (74 feet) wide.  Next, you can enter the yacht’s 400 square meter spa.  The limestone floors are heated.  In the center of the spa is a hot and cold plunge pool.  The pool water can go from hot to cold in less than 10 minutes.  This pool is popular with charter guests, especially after they use the hammam or sauna.

RELAXATION LOUNGE

There’s a relaxation lounge with a fold-down balcony on the left starboard side of the spa.  A supply room for kite surfing and scuba diving in on the right starboard side.

The commitment to an environment of wellness is continued on the aft main deck, above the spa deck.  A beauty center is located here.  There is also a dry massage room and a wet massage room.  Two more components round out the “wellness decks.”   The first is a full gym, with Technogym equipment and a balcony for yoga and meditation.   The second is the most spectacular element of the wellness amenities – a 12-meter pool.

ACCOMMODATIONS

The guest staterooms are forward of the gym.  There are ten guest cabins on the main deck.  Guests can simply wake up and go straight to the gym, or for a swim.  Each cabin opens to a side walking deck.  There are hidden panels that can convert the deck into private balconies for each cabin.  The cabin décor is contemporary, with Japanese influences. Materials include golden oak, limestone, rattan, and coconut shells.

The master suite is located one level up, on the upper deck.   It has an oversized bathroom and a private deck.  The deck that wraps around the front of the suite. Other features include a beauty room and his-and-hers dressing rooms.  There is also a sitting room with a fireplace.  Adjacent to the stateroom is a meeting room and an office.

AFT BRIDGE DECK

A complete outdoor kitchen is located on the aft bridge deck.  The kitchen area includes a pizza oven, a rotisserie, and a Teppanyaki and tandoori grill. Guests can sit and watch the chefs prepare meals.  A large dining table is also present.

WHERE DOES FLYING FOX CHARTER?

The yacht is based in the Mediterranean in the summertime.  Charters are primarily offered in France, Italy, and Croatia.  Winter destination plans are flexible.

HOW MANY CREWMEMBERS?

There are fifty-five (55) crewmembers onboard yacht FLYING FOX.  The crew includes four chefs.  Many of the crew are crossed-trained in different disciplines.  For example, the senior divemaster is also the lead physical fitness trainer in the gymnasium.   Other examples include the interior cleaning staff.  Some are crossed trained as beauticians.  Having a large onboard staff ensures the guests will receive immediate attention, no matter their needs.  Personalized service 24 hours per day is part of The Superyacht Experience.™

NUMBER OF STATEROOMS?

WHAT SPECIAL FEATURES DOES SHE HAVE?

The list of unique features onboard the yacht is amazing.

Some of the special features include an onboard hospital with a decompression chamber for divers.  Also, she has the first-ever, cryosauna installed on a yacht. Cryosaunas utilize extreme cold temperatures to provide therapeutic relief for muscle injuries, overuse, and pain.  You often see cryotherapy (cold therapy) advertised in land-based spas.  This one is at sea!

ADDITIONAL SPECIAL FEATURES

A complete inventory of diving equipment is also on board.  Experienced divers as well as novices can enjoy the experience of diving. Certified dive instructors are part of the yacht’s crew. Every imaginable type of diving-related equipment exists onboard.  For example, there are compressors, nitrox gas mixing systems, full face masks, and underwater scooters.

Like all upscale spas, the yacht offers a complete beauty center.  Treatments include dry and wet massage, body-shaping, and facials.  Swiss Perfection and Elemis skin products are used in the beauty center.  The wet massage is unique.

Flying Fox: The Largest Charter Yacht in the World

Flying Fox effortlessly vaulted to the title of largest private charter yacht in the world.

By Ellie Brade

A yacht the size of the 446-ft M/Y Flying Fox rarely comes onto the charter market. Following her spring 2019 delivery, this one-of-a-kind vessel effortlessly vaulted to the title of largest private charter yacht  in the world.

It is hard to know where to begin when trying to do justice to Flying Fox . Built in Germany by Lürssen , under the supervision of Imperial acting as builder supervisor and owner’s representative, she features a dove gray hull and distinctive curved exterior lines by Espen Øino, with an interior by Mark Berryman. Her staggering length of 446 ft, a beam of 74 ft and her huge volume mean it is no surprise that one of the yacht’s biggest assets is the sheer amount of space on board, both inside and out.

“ Flying Fox ’s layout has been wisely thought out by her designers to ensure that each area offers guests something unique, whether that is a two-story salon to entertain or a cinema room to be entertained,” says Julia Stewart, director of Imperial, the exclusive charter agent for Flying Fox . “The attention to every single detail has been critically observed to provide guests an unforgettable luxurious experience on board.”

A true passion project developed in close collaboration with her owner, Flying Fox ’s appealing design makes her eminently suited to the yacht charter market. Developed to be a home away from home, the yacht is packed with a near-endless list of features that make it hard to consider the idea of ever leaving.

“ Flying Fox caters to all types of charter guests thanks to her beautiful looks and limitless amenities,” says Stewart. “If you want to set out on an adventure, there are all the toys and tenders you will need and highly trained instructors to take care of you; if fine food is more what interests you, then the culinary offering is unrivaled; for wellness lovers, the spa is unparalleled.”

Flying Fox ’s contemporary and functional interior draws on Japanese influences to create a calm and serene environment that makes use of a small palette of colors and materials including bamboo, oak, fine stones and leather. Exquisite mosaic and tile work also feature throughout the decor. Fresh greenery and towering ficus trees and planters are special touches that enhance the entire vessel and effortlessly bring the outside in.

PYC compliant, and able to welcome up to 36 guests in the care of 54 expert crew, Flying Fox has accommodations for 25 guests in 11 cabins. These include a show-stopping master suite complete with 180-degree views, his and hers dressing rooms, a private beauty room and a sitting room complete with its own fireplace — one of five fireplaces on board. The 10 additional guest cabins each have their own sea terraces for a personal view across the ocean. Each cabin is en suite with a 75-in TV screen and media center, and has its own design flair.

A focal interior point for guests is the sweeping atrium-style, two-level salon, which takes full advantage of the available height and volume to deliver a large seating area that overlooks the main salon, with a real-wood fireplace, below. This light-filled haven invites guests to throw off the weight of the world and relax. Other popular interior spots include the full cinema with D-box seating for 14 guests, an Atmos sound system, media system with more than 3,000 movies, a virtual-reality system and an abundance of games. A private dining room, with another real fireplace and enough seating for all on board, boasts its own aquarium as part of the styling, and is the ideal setting for enjoying formal meals created by the yacht’s talented culinary team.

An emphasis on social living, wellness and relaxation is seen throughout and nowhere less so than the spa. “Covering 4,305 sq ft over two floors, the spa is a state-of-the-art achievement that has been called a ‘little Palace Hotel Merano,’” says Stewart. “From the impressive Jacuzzi set in the middle, through to the hammam, sauna, cryo sauna, dry and wet massage areas, or the fully equipped 970-sq-ft gym, the assets offered are above expectations and run by trained professionals, with proven credentials, or former Olympic athletes.” The cryotherapy chamber is of particular note, as it’s the first to ever be installed on a private yacht, and is able to go down to temperatures of -166 Fahrenheit; it will tick the boxes for those looking for a true endorphin rush. A private medic is also part of the crew on board.

This dedication to wellness is seen across every deck, with numerous spaces to gather, relax and enjoy the water. The nearly 74-ft-wide swimming platform serves as a base for sunbathing and utilizing the yacht’s vast collection of water gear that includes a large selection of tenders, jet skis and Seabobs. A fully equipped professional dive center is positioned on the port side of the lower deck, with two dedicated folding terraces. “The on-board dive center is the best ever built on a superyacht,” says Stewart. “Run by PADI-certified specialists who have the ability to train guests, it includes an impressive selection of gear of all sizes, its own breathing system that allows it to be completely autonomous and a three-seat decompression chamber.”

If the ocean doesn’t appeal, then head to the main deck, home to a truly impressive 40-ft pool. Placed transversely — a unique approach when compared to most superyacht layouts — the pool has an adjustable floor height that allows users to tailor their swim, with swim and massage jets at alternate ends. The pool is also a popular gathering spot for sunbathing or simply enjoying drinks and the undisturbed views. Other highlights across the four exterior decks include sheltered lounge areas, sun-drenched teak decks, two Jacuzzis — one on the owner’s deck and one on the sun deck forward — and the privately positioned roof deck that delivers escapism and serenity in equal measure.

Food lovers will appreciate the multitude of dining options found throughout the yacht. “On the cuisine side, Flying Fox is definitely out of this world: not only carrying some of the best chefs, with some having worked with Michelin-starred chefs, but also having impressive galley capacities and incredible areas to dine,” says Stewart. Favorite spots include the bridge deck, with a dining setup, bar and an open kitchen with cooking options, including a full-size rotisserie, tandoori, pizza oven and teppanyaki and churrasco grills, which ensure all tastes and flavors are covered.

While capable of traveling to far-flung destinations, Flying Fox is currently based in the Mediterranean. Access in even the most remote anchorages is easy thanks to the two helipads on board, with the upper deck helipad ranked as ‘18-meter D-Value’ and big enough to accommodate Flying Fox ’s Airbus H175 12-seat helicopter, the largest private helicopter in the world. The upper deck helipad has a double use and can transform into a dance floor like no other for partying under the stars.

The visionary  Flying Fox  yacht dwarfs her competitors — literally and figuratively — and delivers luxury escapism in the highest measure.

  Flying Fox yacht is available to charter from $4m per week.
