LIONHEART Yacht – Enchanting $150M Superyacht
LIONHEART yacht is a 90-metre (295 ft) motor yacht built by Benetti in Italy. She was delivered in July of 2016 to the current owner who recently sold his brands Topshop and Selfridges, gaining him a net worth of US $2.4 billion.
LIONHEART features a sleek and modern design with space for up to 12 guests and 30 crew members. Her home berth lies in Monaco, which is where Green and his family spend most of their time.
LIONHEART yacht interior
The LIONHEART yacht features a lot of intricate details in its design that make her stand out from other comparable vessels on the market.
The interior of this yacht had exceptionally high-quality materials used in her construction, which gives her an elegant look and feel throughout all the different spaces on board.
The design house Green & Mingarelli is responsible for the luxurious interior design of LIONHEART.
The LIONHEART yacht can welcome 12 guests in her six cabins as well as a crew of 30 members of staff.
The interior of the yacht features a beach club, a beauty salon as well as expansive health and wellness facilities that include a spa, a hairdressing salon, a gym with a personal trainer, and a massage room with a masseur available at all hours.
The different floors of the yacht are connected by an elevator, and of course, the yacht has several pools, two of which are located on the upper decks.
A grand staircase is situated in the center of the yacht, which gives the vessel the likeness of a luxury hotel. The interior is furnished with exclusive furniture with dark wood and cream upholstery.
The yacht features several sizable chandeliers and other extravagant lighting fixtures. Everything about the interior of LIONHEART is lavish and luxurious, flaunting the US $150 Million price tag that this incredible vessel bears.
Specifications
The LIONHEART yacht is 90 meters (296 ft) long with a beam of 14.4 meters (47.3 ft) and a draft of 7.5 meters (24.9 ft). She was built by Benetti Yachts in Livorno, Italy, and launched in 2016.
At the time, LIONHEART was Benetti’s flagship and the largest yacht they had ever produced, overtaking NABILA (later TRUMP PRINCESS owned by Donald Trump).
Her gross tonnage lies at 2,990 GT, reaching cruising speeds of 15 knots and maximum speeds of 16 knots.
She is definitely not the fastest yacht in her size category, but her caterpillar engines are reliable and robust.
LIONHEART has an immense aluminum superstructure, and her hull was constructed from premium steel. Her traditional teak decks nicely contrast her white exterior.
The LIONHEART yacht is values at US $150 million and has annual running costs of US $10-$15 Million. She is not currently available for charter or for sale, although Green’s other yachts are.
The exterior of the LIONHEART yacht was designed by Stefano Natucci, who was also responsible for LIONESS V, Green’s previous yacht by Benetti.
Natucci has designed a total of 45 yachts, the LIONHEART yacht being the largest of his past projects.
The yacht is fitted with a sophisticated stabilizer system that ensures a comfortable experience for guests when at anchor or underway. She has a total of four decks featuring generous outdoor spaces.
The front of the bow has room for a small helipad where aircraft can land to pick up or drop off guests.
The top deck has an outdoor bar and jacuzzi, and behind the flybridge, there is a large pool.
All decks have luxurious outdoor seating with cream upholstery which is also the color of the crew uniforms aboard the LIONHEART yacht.
At the aft, the yacht has a sizable beach club and extendable swimming platform where water toys can be launched.
She also has several smaller, shaded decks with ample space for dining or parties. On both her port and starboard sides, Lionheart has small balcony decks which are attached to two of the suites.
Toys and equipment
The LIONHEART yacht carries several tenders, although her most memorable is a VanDutch 55 named Lioncub.
This tender has a black and white photograph of a lion painted on its side, making it stand out from traditional tenders and attracting yacht spotters.
LIONHEART also has a Pascoe Limousine, a Pascoe Beachlande, and a Pascoe Outboard Shuttle giving her passengers a wide selection of transportation options for shore leave or excursions.
Although exact details aren’t known, the yacht carries a large number of water toys, including jet skis and water bobs.
With a large swimming platform at the back of the vessel and an attached beach club with a lounge area, a luxury that might be desired is available to her guests.
Additional information
Construction for LIONHEART began in 2012 after the owner Green commissioned his third yacht from Benetti .
The two previous vessels were also named LIONHEART but have since been renamed LUMIERE and LIONESS V.
LUMIERE was built in 1999 and has a length of 49.9 meters (164 ft). Green sold her when he obtained LIONHEART V in 2006, and she is now available for charter.
LIONESS V has a length of 63.5 meters (208 ft) and was replaced by LIONHEART in 2016, 10 years after her launch.
Interestingly all three vessels can welcome the same number of guests, and only their amenities and length changed over the years.
LIONESS V is still owned by the Green family, more specifically Tina Green. This yacht is available for charter.

The J-Class sailing yacht Lionheart is the first of a new breed of aluminium J-Class yachts which are are built to a Hoek yacht designs at Holland’s Claasen Jachtbouw shipyard. One of the leading offices in classically styled sailing yachts, Hoek Design is intimately involved in the revival of these magnificent yachts from the 1930s.
Sailing yacht Lionheart incorporates two small separate deckhouses and cockpits – one of which is designed especially for the yacht’s owner and guests. This feature gives extra versatility for both racing or cruising the superyacht.
The J-Class Yacht Lionheart
When delivered Lionheart will be the largest J-Class superyacht in existence, with 17m overhangs on an LOA of 43.4m. ABS classed and MCA compliant, she will be able to accommodate eight guests in four cabins.
Hoek Design has developed specific Velocity Prediction Software for J-Class yachts in partnership with Piet van Oossanen of wing keel fame. This highly sophisticated Velocity Prediction Program (VPP) has been developed specifically for these craft, and was calibrated using tank test data from a six-metre long model of a J. The aerodynamic part was calibrated with wind tunnel test data. “In contrast to other types of software, our VPP software is capable of calculating rudder angles as well as predicting performance in waves,” Andre Hoek explains. “This enables us to also optimise helm balance.”
Yacht Lionheart a J-Class Sailing Yacht
Originally designed for the Ranger syndicate by Starling Burgess and Olin Stephens, Lionheart is the first yacht to be built based upon this research. Under construction for a repeat customer of Hoek Design, she will be the largest J afloat when launched. Tremendous 17-metre overhangs on a LOA of 44 metres have created a fascinating super J with a maximum waterline length.
The J Class Sailing Yacht lionheart Delivered
Hoek: “We extensively optimised Lionheart’s structure using 3D structural modelling techniques with finite element software programs. The complete hull structure was analysed for stiffness and torsion, and her stiffness compared to the steel original. The weight of the hull structure was also further optimised, while the hull was developed in high tensile Alustar plating and extrusion materials to provide even greater stiffness. We also carried out extensive research into the mast position, and sail area vs. handicap in order to create a yacht that would perform to her best on the race course.”

By B. Roberts
The stunning super J-Class yacht Lionheart, recently launched by Dutch shipyard Claasen Jachtbouw, has been announced for sale with joint agents YPI Brokerage and Hoek.

Alongside her expert construction, her racing capabilities benefitted from the wealth of experience added to the project by Hall Spars in the building of her spars as well as utilising Harkens proven Carbon winches.

Lionheart was actually based on a project called F-77, which was commissioned by Harold Vanderbilt, but never built. Instead, Vanderbilt won the 1930s America’s Cup with another boat called Enterprise . By reaching back into the annals of yachting history, Lionheart ’s designers determined that F-77 was the fastest of the original group that Vanderbilt had commissioned. When launched in 2010, Lionheart won its first race, the Kings 100 Guineas Cup in Cowes. The yacht then won three regattas in 2014, and several UK events in 2015. At 142 feet 5 inches, the boat was the largest of the J Class (until Svea was launched last year) and certainly one of the most beautiful, with its jet-black hull and low-riding profile. Some say Lionheart looks like a cross between a superyacht and a J Class yacht. It has the saloon and staterooms to put it in the superyacht category. Either way, the vessel is a fitting tribute to the Vanderbilt yacht that never was.

Lionheart, JH1
Original lines: Burgess/Stephens / Modified lines: Hoek Design & Naval Architects

Lionheart is the first modern replica J Class to be built in aluminium and was launched in July 2010. The original owner who commissioned JH1 was a repeat client of Andre Hoek who had then simply sought to build the fastest J Class yet.
Hoek developed their own VPP (velocity prediction program) software to analyse all the existing J Class designs before CFD and traditional tank testing with 6 metre long models. Hoek identified the J Class Ranger as outstanding from a family of seven Burgess and Stephens designs which were originally submitted to Harold Vanderbilt in 1936, and it was this design that was used for Lionheart.
The design showed exceptional promise as a very good all-rounder, fast on all points of sail in light, medium and heavy winds. Designed at 43.4m she was to be the longest on the waterline at the time.
In terms of deck and rig hardware, Lionheart fully utilised modern superyacht and grand prix race yacht technology where appropriate, significantly moving forwards J Class construction and specification using the most powerful winches and hydraulic systems available to optimise sail handling and trimming, keep all up weight down and to deal with the high rig loads.
Lionheart is the first J Class to have adopted a double cockpit layout with a private owners’ cockpit and deckhouse aft of the wheel and, forward of the wheel, a large guest cockpit leading to the main companionway and deckhouse. This allows the working area of the boat to be separated from the guests, improves communications between the afterguard and allows more of the working crew to work inside a cockpit rather than on the deck.
True to that original promise, Lionheart has been the standout performer on the race course since she was launched. From 2014 when they won in Menorca, Palma and Sardinia until 2017 when she won the seven boat J Class Superyacht Regatta and the J Class America’s Cup in Bermuda, followed by the inaugural J Class World Championship in Newport RI.
Then under the guidance of tactician Bouwe Bekking, the Lionheart project evolved to the highest level thanks to their desire to improve as a team. Each regatta saw Lionheart make comprehensive daily briefings and debriefings, they optimised their performance package and trained hard as a team. And over the years the owner became one of the most accomplished, competitive helms in the fleet. Bekking retained key core crew from the Brunel round the world race programme he skippered.
Lionheart has cruised extensively since 2017 and was expected to return to the race course in 2023 before their plans were put on hold.
