Exclusive: Launch of Lürssen 115m superyacht Project ENZO

YachtBuyer has exclusive images of the 9,000GT superyacht Project ENZO as she prepares for her launch at the German builder’s shipyard in Rendsberg.

YachtBuyer has exclusive images of the Lürssen 115m (376ft) superyacht Project ENZO (formerly Project Testarossa), ahead of her much anticipated launch which is expected imminently.

Caught on camera at the world-renowned builder’s shipyard in Rendsberg, Germany, the signature Nuvolari Lenard exterior design is clearly visible. She can be seen sitting in a floating dry dock that is soon expected to be flooded, ready for her to float out. Keep an eye on this article for more exclusive images as soon as she hits the water.

The 9,000 GT project was announced in 2018 and was seen in public for the first time in September 2019 being moved to Lürssen's outfitting facilities for completion.

The superyacht represents the third collaboration between Nuvolari Lenard and Lürssen following in the footsteps of the 88m (288ft) motor yacht QUATTROELLE, delivered in 2015, and the 142m (466ft) superyacht NORD delivered earlier this year and the tenth-largest motor yacht in the world.

Details around 'Project ENZO' remain secretive but it is expected she will accommodate 14 guests in seven suites, with her helideck and a taste of her sprawling exterior decks are also visible in the exclusive photos. Her sweeping window design is also reminiscent of superyacht QUATTROELLE. We expect her to be delivered later this year.

World's Largest Yachts

She will be another entry into the top half of the World’s Top 100 yachts by length for Lurssen, a list they dominate and already appear in 29 times, including five of the ten largest superyachts currently on the seas.

However, with a Gross Tonnage of 5,257GT, superyacht project ENZO will feature in the new, more accurate YachtBuyer YB100 Largest Yachts by GT table due to her substantial internal volume. Superyacht project ENZO's ranking in the YB100 will place a few spots higher than her position in the length-based Top 100.
