Lürssen is proud to announce the successful delivery of KISMET. She left the shipyard on 7 May 2024 to embark on her maiden voyage marking the beginning of an extraordinary chapter in luxury yachting.

KISMET was built for an expert customer who had already commissioned several yachts from Lürssen. Designed by Nuvolari-Lenard, KISMET boasts harmonious proportions, with her 122-metre length (including the bowsprit) and 17.80-metre beam, showcasing exceptional volume without compromising her sleek and elegant lines. The majestic mast and the bow figure, resembling a leaping jaguar, add a distinctive touch of grandeur to her profile.

For the interior, the Owner once again called upon the design studio Reymond Langton Design, which has created another interior of unparalleled beauty and sophistication, tailored to reflect the Owner's unique lifestyle. Highlights include a two-level open-plan entrance area adorned with sweeping video walls, a Nemo cinema on the lower deck featuring a 150-inch television and an underwater seating area, and a luxurious 7-star wellness area, among other exquisite features.

KISMET marks the third collaboration between Lürssen, the client and long-time Owner's representatives Kyle and Gerry Fultz.

Peter Lürßen comments: "The Owner's brief was challenging. However, we believe that with our technical expertise, we have fulfilled the Owner's wish and vision for a yacht that will still be timeless and ahead of its time for many years to come. Our thanks go to the excellent design and communication with the designers Nuvolari-Lenard and Reymond Langton and the Lürssen project team. Special thanks go to the competent and experienced Owner's team Kyle and Gerry Fultz."

KISMET is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and technical systems characteristic of all Lürssen yachts and is highlighted by a cutting-edge hybrid power train combined with a full-electric mode that will position KISMET among the most powerful yet energy-efficient superyachts in the world. Other innovative features such as a heat recovery system in the generators for pool water heating, and dynamic positioning for electronic anchoring in sensitive and remote areas, underscore Lürssen's commitment to sustainability and safety.

As KISMET embarks on her maiden voyage, she symbolises the epitome of luxury, craftsmanship, and technological innovation, reaffirming Lürssen's position as a leader in the world of superyachts.

Kismet spends her first season in the Mediterranean and is available for charter through Cecil Wright.
