Motor Yacht

The 78 metre superyacht Venus emerged from the Feadship yard in Aalsmeer in 2012, showcasing immaculate design, extensive use of glass and an unforgettable profile in a pedigree collaboration between Philippe Starck, De Voogt Naval Architects and her visionary commissioner, who is speculated to be the design and technology icon Steve Jobs.

Immediately recognisable, opinion splitting and a genuine triumph of design, this superyacht has since been seen cruising the world and turning heads in every port. Holding expert design characteristics of the Apple empire, with specially created elements on board to enhance both use and performance.

With a layered profile and superstructure reflecting a clean, minimalist style, Venus holds a beam of 11.8 metres (38’9”) and a draught of 3 metres (9’11”) to create spacious internal volumes to take anywhere in the world. This highly secretive yacht is both part of the Top 100 and widely considered to be one of the finest yachts on the water.

VENUS Yacht – Captivating $120M Superyacht

The VENUS yacht was delivered in 2012 by Feadship, a Dutch shipbuilding company.

Phillippe Stark designed the VENUS, and Jobs was an integral part of the yacht’s design. The 78m yacht has garnered a lot of attention thanks to the famous name who commissioned it, but there are not many details about the boat’s interior available.

VENUS yacht interior

The interior design of the VENUS yacht was largely designed by Steve Jobs, in combination with Philippe Starck .

The yacht’s interior has never been published, and the details available are in short supply. There is a lot of intrigue as to what the yacht’s interior looks like, thanks to the famous name who commissioned it.

One can only imagine that the interior reflects Apple’s slogan “Think Different,” with an eye-catching and minimalist interior to reflect the design of the yacht’s exterior.

It is known that the bridge is lined with 27-inch Mac computer screens, with large cabin windows that are almost floor to ceiling, with a main living area. There is accommodation for 12 guests in 6 suites and 22 crew.

The VENUS yacht has a unique exterior, reflecting the sleekness and eye-catching nature of Apple’s products, and was designed by Philippe Starck.

Feadship was commissioned to execute the build. Everything about the exterior is eye-catching and unique, from the silver paint job to the stainless steel details to the line of rectangular windows that run from the bow.

The structure of VENUS features 90-degree angles, an axe bow for piercing waves, and a flat and somewhat unusually squared stern that opens to reveal a tender garage.

There is no visible radar arch or satellite equipment, as all the equipment is hidden within a box that keeps the VENUS exterior appearance clean and sleek.

Specifications

The 78m VENUS yacht has an 11.8m beam and a 3.1m draft that makes the boat appear low-slung in the water.

The 2 MTU engines give VENUS a top speed of 20.5kn and a cruising speed of 18kn. She displaces 1,876 GT and can cover 5500 nautical miles.

She has an annual running cost of $10-$15 million and was rumored to cost $100 million to build. VENUS was refitted in 2015 at Monaco Marine.

The world of superyachts is the world of ultimate luxury, total privacy and security, exquisite pleasures. That’s also a status symbol and a way of expressing your taste, the way of showing the style of your own unique life perception and philosophy of being. Travelling around the world through the most secret and secluded places where there is no access for ordinary people, where the whole bounty of nature meets you with a calm respect. Or visiting the world’s luxurious and busy marinas, with vivid social and culture life, famous parties, Michelin restaurants, world festivals and so ever – all depends on you. The only common thing about this: expensive motor yachts are a great investment in happiness.

No matter the size, motor yachts , superyachts and megayachts are considered to be nautical miracles combining together efficiency, functionality and beauty. You will find all the technical innovations and cutting-edge entertainments onboard of power yachts : from Jacuzzi, infinity swimming pool, spa/beauty center, private gym, large cinema theatre and audio system with terabytes of information, to sliding ceiling in VIP suite, or numerous water toys, such as Jet Skis, speedboats, helicopters or submersibles. And it’s only imagination that could limit all these features.

Available for sale or charter, superyachts and megayachts are used for private and professional cruises by celebrities, politicians, royal family’s representatives and tycoons.

There are hundreds of shipyards and various yacht models in the market and in order to make the best choice it is better to hire a specialist or a specialized brokerage company. Broker managers will help you to communicate with yacht dealers and shipyards during the new construction as well as control all technical surveys and yacht assessments while buying the pre-owned vessels.

The Owner of the vessel should also always remember about permanent operating costs of owning the superyacht which usually include fueling, technical maintenance, crew salaries and mooring fees. Traditionally it is estimated that average annual running costs gain about 10% of the initial purchase cost; however, there is no term of “avaerage” when you talk about superyachts and megayachts .

Arcon Yachts is an official dealer of Wim van der Valk yachts in Russia. This brand with a large production of steel and aluminium yachts is a great example of leading shipyards of the world. One of many that Arcon Yachts represent.
