Lurssen Launch one of the World's Biggest Yachts, the 145m superyacht LUMINANCE

German shipyard Lurssen has successfully launched one of its biggest-ever builds, 145m (475ft) superyacht LUMINANCE

Squeezing into the top 10 largest superyachts in the world at number 10, behind 145.72m (478ft) the classic yacht El Mahrousa by Samuda Bros., superyacht LUMINANCE boasts a captivating design collaboration from Espen Oeino.

One of the largest superyachts to emerge from the sheds of Lurssen facilities, superyacht LUMINANCE is not only the sixth largest yacht so far to be launched by the German shipyard, she is also the 30th collaborative project between Lurssen and Oeino.

Many details are yet to be unveiled surrounding specifications and indeed integrated amenities, however, on first look, superyacht LUMINANCE certainly delivers an exceptional alfresco lifestyle with a spacious beach club environment, abundant walkaround deck space and the markings of a potential touch-and-go helipad.

Expected to be delivered later in 2023, interiors have been penned by Zuretti Interior Design and with a beam of 18m (59’1ft), we can expect to see the epitomy of superyacht space onboard, with large open living areas that include an extensive main salon, a formal interior dining area plus premium cabins for the owner and their guests. 

Now embarking on her sea trials, superyacht LUMINANCE will soon be entering her outfitting stages before delivery later this year.

World's Largest Yachts

Superyacht LUMINANCE enters the Top 100 at No. 11, just two spots ahead of another of Lurssen's, superyacht SCHEHERAZADE. Both yachts are nearly identical in size, with only the space of 15 shipping containers separating their usable volume. We've just launched the YB100 - YachtBuyer’s game-changing ranking of the world’s largest yachts. In the YB100, superyacht LUMINANCE lands at 15th by Gross Tonnage, dropping four spots from her length-based rank, while superyacht SCHEHERAZADE climbs to 12th, improving by one.
