Abeking & Rasmussen Yachts

Here is a video of the newest project. Nice to see a different point of view of the yacht while under construction.

A&R launched a new 74m project today. Does anybody know more about this one?
Also the 74 "Ilona" was launched after an extensive refit which saw some changes to the bow giving her a sleek appearance as well as lengthening the stern with a new bathing platform.

She actually has got sub surface windows like those on "Savannah".

Yep, those are some massive windows...

She's the new Elandess. Hopefully that means we'll see a lot more of her since the owner's two previous yachts were well published.

Details of her layout have been released: main deck owners cabin with observation lounge above and 8m by 2.25m pool on the sun deck.

Interestingly, that layout is very similar to that of Phoenix 2.

One of the closest videos I have seen of M/Y "Secret".

It appears that Abeking & Rasmussen have a new website up...

No interior pics, but the Burgess website has 'Secret" listed for sale

Something that you don't see everyday is the interesting mix of Art Deco and contemporary. Obviously this owner likes it but certainly NOT a neutral palette for the next owner to work with.

Yep that is what you call a custom interior! I like how you put it, contemporary and Art Deco melding... and I see what you mean. In fact a couple of the spaces remind me of what was done on "Phoenix2".. and you know that has some big Art Deco influence.

On the same page with you. Phoenix's art deco interior was the first thing that came to mind until you see the modern contemporary Carl Springer chairs amongst other contemporary furnishings in a few places. The overheads and intricate relief details had to be incredibly expensive and difficult to produce. No matter what my personal tastes are my hats off to the craftsman who built and installed this interior. Phoenix, Now Avante has retained all of the original interior as launched and its stood the test of time new owner wise.

That is definitely quite different than what I would have expected based on her supposed predecessor a 60m Feadship now called Samadhi.
