HANSA YACHTS Four-pack from Germany German yacht builders Nobiskrug, Lloyd Werft, Meyer Werft and Abeking & Rasmussen plan exciting projects for the owner of tomorrow. Wind and solar power are on the agenda as well as extravangt designs and the world’s largest superyacht With its catamaran concept »Albatross«, the Lloyd shipyard from Bremerhaven has presented a project that is as spectacular as it is sustainable, with which it aims to counter climate change and rising energy prices. The twin-hulled concept measures 125 m in length, 29 m in beam and has a draft of 5.6 m with a measurement of 10,000 GT. The mega yacht is designed to use free fuels such as wind, solar and water as energy sources, reducing its CO 2 footprint and energy consumption by about 40 %. This minimises the yacht‘s environmental impact and significantly reduces operating costs. This is achieved, among other things, by what is probably the most striking feature of the »Albatross« – the rigid wing sails with a surface area of 1,000 m2. These can be folded in when not in use and support the ship’s propulsion with a free propulsive power of about 1,200 kW in favourable winds. The sails alone should be able to propel the ship to a speed of 7 kn. Another power source will be the solar panels, which measure 1,150 m2 and can harvest an average of 120 kW per hour over 24 hours. Thanks to the additional five vertical wind turbines installed on the upper deck, »Albatross« can generate up to 50 kW of electricity per hour in good conditions, both during the day and at night. The concept also provides for a division into two operating modes. In anchor or port mode, energy is generated by six methanol fuel cells, each producing 200 kW, with support from the wind and solar generators. A lithium-ion battery stores energy around the clock. If the methanol fuel is ever unavailable – for example, due to a tight market or because the ship is in a remote location – the required energy can be generated by one of the two 1,000 kW shaft generators, each located at the gearboxes of the main propulsion system. In cruising and sailing mode, the catamaran is powered by four 1,800 kW main engines running on conventional fuel – but consumption is significantly reduced thanks to the fixedwing sails. Economically, »Albatross« is expected to cruise at 12 knots, with a top speed of 15 knots. The interior and exterior, designed by Stay Star Design, are dominated by sustainable and low-maintenance materials. Amenities include a large gym, spa, and multiple dining areas and lounges, providing enough space for up to 14 guests on board. Outside, the yacht features an infinity pool and beach club near the stern swim platform. An area of 2025 m2 is reserved for owners and guests on board, and 1750 m2 are available for a crew of up to 46 people. The »Albatross‘ concept emphasises on details in all interior and exterior areas, using lightweight and sustainable materials. At the same time, all materials have been designed to be easy to maintain so that the areas always look fresh and new,« explains Friedrich Norden, Head of Projects & Sales at Lloyd Werft.

HANSA YACHTS Nobiskrug’s »Bullseye«-concept © Nobiskrug Nobiskrug with 80 m »Bullseye« German shipyard Nobiskrug has begun work on an 80-meter superyacht with five decks. The contract was awarded by international superyacht broker Cecil Wright in July of this year and is scheduled for delivery to the owner in 2025. In close consultation with the future owner, broker Cecil Wright & Partners chose the internationally renowned Rensburg-based shipyard to construct the custom superyacht, which has impressed with its recent builds such as »Artefact«. The impressive exterior and elegant interior design of the new superyacht project, named »Bullseye,« were penned by London-based Winch Design. The collaboration between Winch Design and Nobiskrug represents a proven synergy that has already been used several times in successful superyacht projects. »Bullseye« features a spacious interior as well as an expansive beach club and spa and is very much in the tradition of exceptional superyachts from Nobiskrug. »Winch Design is delighted to continue its longstanding partnership with Cecil Wright and Nobiskrug to design and deliver another incredibly exciting superyacht. The project will be unique and tailored to the owner‘s high expectations,« comments Jim Dixon, Director of Yachts and Aviation at Winch Design. Nobiskrug will be responsible for all engineering, ensuring the highest quality standards and high standards of sound and vibration. In addition, throughout the design process, to keep energy requirements as low as possible, the design of all systems for the vessel‘s operation will be strictly monitored. »We have held our own in a high-demand market. We won this contract because our goal as a German shipyard is to combine the latest technology with the highest quality and we have the expertise to implement the owner‘s unique wishes,« says Philipp Maracke, managing director of Nobiskrug. Handover of the ship to the owner, who wishes to remain unnamed, is scheduled for 2025. Your reliable propellershaft seal solution since 1995 HANSA YACHTS 01 | 2023 39
