Opera is a major modern Lürssen giga yacht delivered in 2023. She measures about 146.35 metres, with public sources reporting a beam of around 22.49 metres, a draught of around 6 metres and gross tonnage of about 12,518 GT. The yacht was launched from Lürssen’s Bremen facility and delivered after sea trials and fitting-out, becoming one of the largest privately owned yachts in the world. Publicly available details remain limited, but her size, builder and delivery date make her an important record in the modern large-yacht fleet. For Superyacht Guide, Opera should be treated as a significant contemporary Lürssen build and a high-priority yacht for future image and ownership/status review.
