Australian-based Silver Yachts has provided current construction details on what will become the yard’s flagship vessel: 85m/279ft ‘SILVER LOFT’.
Explorer yacht SILVER LOFT – Built by Silver Yachts
Designed by Espen Oeino in collaboration with shipyard owner Guido Krass, explorer yacht SILVER LOFT features a vast main deck aft which can be used as a touch-n-go helipad, as an entertainment venue or sunbathing area. Currently the main deck and upper deck are being fitted and the interior design will be completed by Vain Interiors, who have worked with Silver Yachts on other builds in the past.
The exterior teak decks are currently being installed and painting of the hull will begin once fairing is fully complete. As of yet, few details have been released regarding the on board amenities, however the sundeck will feature an 8-person Jacuzzi and there will also be a sauna on board.
