Superyacht Guide Awards are editorial ratings based on available information and review criteria.
Blue is one of the most significant recent additions to the global giga-yacht fleet. Delivered by Lürssen in 2022, she measures 160.6 metres and has a gross tonnage of about 14,785 GT.
Publicly reported details identify Terence Disdale as both exterior and interior designer, with Lürssen responsible for naval architecture. BOAT International lists accommodation for up to 48 guests and around 80 crew, placing Blue among the most substantial privately owned motor yachts in service.
Blue is important as a modern Lürssen reference yacht, combining very large scale with contemporary engineering, diesel-electric propulsion reporting and the refined, discreet design language associated with the largest private yachts.
