    Nothing is known about this vessel but it recently launched in Indonesia. It is called "J7EXPLORER" and purported to be 100-meters or greater in length. It was launched to the water down a slipway on inflatable logs. Whether it is a yacht or not is the question.

    Superstructure reminds me of the 88m Illusion Plus from Pride Mega Yachts

    Interesting design. Not sure if I care for it too much. Looking forward to the finished product. Also, a 100 meter + yacht not being built at Lurssen is different lol.

    How is that different there are quite a few builders who launch 100m plus yachts who aren't Lurssen.

    This one looks a little bit like Andromeda or Ulysses, both 100m plus yachts built in Norway.

    That vessel is very loud when it is running...sounds like a large whaling vessel.
