Last reviewed: June 2, 2026
Superyacht Guide Awards are editorial ratings based on available information and review criteria.
AMIKA is a 47-metre Sanlorenzo 500EXP expedition-style motor yacht delivered in 2020.
Formerly named LARS, AMIKA is part of Sanlorenzo’s explorer-style 500EXP series. She was built with a steel hull and aluminium superstructure and is designed for long-range cruising, expedition-style use and flexible guest operations.
Public yacht-directory and charter sources list AMIKA at approximately 47 metres in length, with a beam of around 9.3 to 9.6 metres, a gross tonnage of 499 GT and accommodation for up to 10 or 11 guests in five cabins. Crew accommodation is reported for around 8 to 9 crew.
Her exterior design is by Francesco Paszkowski Design, with naval architecture by Sanlorenzo. Charter and yacht-directory sources describe her as a long-range expedition yacht with a range of around 4,000 nautical miles, a cruising speed of about 12 knots and a top speed of around 15 knots.
AMIKA was previously known as LARS. The yacht was reported sold in 2024 while listed under the former name LARS, with BOAT International reporting a last known asking price of €27,500,000. This value is used here as an editorial market-intelligence reference, not as a current valuation or confirmed sale price.

Sources, assumptions and methodology
Indicative SYG estimate. Value basis: Length-and-age model using length. Central annual OPEX uses the established 14% of estimated yacht value fallback, adjusted for yacht age where available. Low and high cases reflect utilisation, condition, crewing, fuel, berthing and maintenance uncertainty. Capital reserve is shown separately from routine OPEX. Figures must be replaced or upgraded when reported accounts, invoices, court records or other yacht-specific evidence is available.
Calculation version: SYG-FI-1.0 · Last reviewed: 25 July 2026
Financial figures may include reported expenditure, source-derived calculations and indicative estimates. Estimated figures are not audited accounts, quotations or financial advice.

How to read this history:
Superyacht Guide estimates,
brokerage asking prices and
documented transaction values are
stored as separate record types.
The first baseline record marks the
beginning of permanent Superyacht
Guide value-history tracking; the
absence of an earlier record does
not mean the yacht had no earlier
market value or sale history.
