Lürssen project Orchid completes sea trials!

Published by Editorial team on 21st July 2015

---

The Project Orchid has successfully concluded her sea trials in the Baltic Sea under perfect weather conditions. She is now expected to cruise in Norway for her Maiden Voyage and for crew training.  Her final delivery is planned for late summer 2015 upon which the yacht is expected to be handed over to the owner for private use.



Press Release:

Both Exterior and Interior design are by Reymond Langton Design. The Exterior of Project Orchid is designed around creating a harmonious balance. From a distance, the sweeping curves and elegant proportions give the vessel feminine beauty and elegance and allow the strong, masculine details to emerge; sharp lines define the strong, sculptured surfaces that have been carefully styled to create a sharp contrast with highlights and shadows that lend the superstructure a unique form that subtly changes in different lights as the sun moves across the sky.

The balance and proportion of the yacht’s profile also allows for generous exterior decks that offer range of options for guests to enjoy, from sun-drenched, open entertainment areas to more sheltered, intimate formal spaces. The crew is now working closely over the final months before delivery with the Yacht Management and Project Coordination teams at Y.CO, who coordinated the build throughout, to prepare the yacht for operational use.

Dr Johnson chartered a luxury 65' Lagoon sailing catamaran on the Italian riviera. The owner of this famous yacht, a famous Italian celebrity, offered a free delivery of the boat to Amalfi Coast and a third crew member on top. The whole experience was exceptional and the family is looking to charter this year again.
