A distinctive Lurssen of 2017
Amadea was delivered by Lurssen in 2017 as one of the yard's most recognisable projects of the whole decade. At just over 106 metres she offers full giga-yacht amenity in a beautifully resolved package. Her genuinely distinctive foredeck architecture set her apart from her peers almost immediately. Lurssen built her throughout to the exacting standard that its clients rightly expect. Her striking silhouette quickly made her one of the most photographed yachts of her year and a favourite of the design press.
The programme drew freely on the yard's engineering and craftsmanship at their full stretch. Every single space was designed for both entertaining and long-range comfort. Amadea stands today as a strong and confident example of Lurssen's work across the mid-2010s. She remains a familiar and much-admired sight in the world's very finest anchorages. She continues to stand out clearly in every anchorage she happens to visit, wherever in the world she cruises.
Espen Oeino's clamshell bow
Espen Oeino gave Amadea a signature geometric form that descends from the superstructure to the foredeck like a clamshell. That genuinely distinctive shape is the feature that guests and observers alike remember first. Her five-deck profile is carried with real elegance over a notably slim hull. The whole exterior is thoroughly contemporary and full of real character. The clamshell form gives her a character that is quite unlike any of her rivals.
Oeino built in extensive open decks, a full helipad and generous terraces for easy outdoor living. The lines flow cleanly and confidently despite the sheer boldness of the foredeck. Every deck aboard was carefully shaped for both style and genuine everyday use. Amadea looks completely unmistakable from absolutely any angle. Her outdoor spaces are notably generous for a yacht of her overall length, with ample room to lounge and dine in the open air.

Zuretti interiors and a party deck
The interior by Zuretti runs to rich and classical spaces finished throughout to a very high standard. Amadea accommodates 18 guests across generous suites with a crew of around 36 in full support. A dedicated deck was designed purely for entertaining, giving her a genuine social heart. The craftsmanship throughout is exactly what one would expect of a true flagship Lurssen. The party deck lends her a real and welcome sense of occasion, a natural place for guests to gather after dark.
The amenities include a 10-metre infinity pool, a cinema, a full spa and a beauty salon. A beach club and jacuzzi together open the whole yacht directly to the sea. The layout carefully balances grand hosting with quiet, private comfort. Every material aboard was chosen for durability under genuinely constant use. Guests aboard enjoy amenities that are usually reserved for far larger yachts.
Built for the tropics and the ocean
Amadea is powered by MTU 16V4000 diesel engines driving a stable displacement hull. She reaches a top speed of around 20 knots and cruises efficiently at a comfortable 14. Her range comfortably supports long ocean passages between distant cruising grounds. The propulsion package was chosen for smooth and reliable service in warm waters. She was built squarely to chase the sun across the world's warmest waters.
Zero-speed stabilisers keep her comfortable and steady at anchor even in open roadsteads. She readily carries the fuel and stores needed for genuine self-sufficiency at sea. Her systems fully meet Lurssen's demanding standards for redundancy and long service life. Amadea was built to cruise the tropics and to cross whole oceans with ease. Her systems quietly keep life aboard serene in almost any conditions.
For the owner who wants character and comfort
Amadea suits an owner who wants a yacht with a genuine identity entirely of her own. Her clamshell bow and dedicated party deck together give her a personality that larger yachts often lack. She is ideal for entertaining and for extended cruising in warm and sunny waters. Life aboard is naturally social and richly, deeply comfortable. She suits an owner who prizes real personality every bit as much as polish.
Her interiors clearly reward an owner who values craftsmanship and character together. She offers real presence, generous amenity and a look that is entirely distinct. For a buyer who wants a genuinely memorable yacht at a flexible size, Amadea delivers completely. She remains one of the most individual Lurssen deliveries of her whole era. Her distinctive looks have only grown on admirers steadily over time.

Build detailing
Described by the owner's own representative broker as one of the most detailed vessels ever built, in remarks made around the 2025 auction.

Lurssen's own sales director has spoken of her turn of speed for a yacht this size, calling it very fast. This is the builder's own account of its own product, not an independent test.

Сильные стороны и что учесть
Сильные стороны
- An unusually detailed, fast-built flagshipCompleted in 31 months from first steel cut to delivery for a 106-metre yacht, with fit-out reported by the owner's own broker as among the most detailed of any Lurssen, including a hand-painted Pleyel grand piano and a five-tonne stainless steel albatross figurehead by Willem Lenssinck.
- Genuine long-range capabilityTwin MTU diesels give a reported 8,000 nautical mile range at 13 knots on 392,000 litres of fuel, with a 20-knot top speed, real ocean-crossing range rather than a coastal-cruising figure.
- Full flagship amenityA 10-metre infinity pool with swim-up bar, a dedicated party deck rigged for a 20,000W sound system, a lower-deck spa with sauna, hammam and chromotherapy pool, a private cinema and a helipad rated for a Eurocopter EC135.
На что обратить внимание
- A documented sanctions and forfeiture history now attached to the nameSeized by Fijian police in April 2022 under a US Department of Justice KleptoCapture warrant after a court found her beneficially owned by sanctioned Russian billionaire Suleiman Kerimov, rejecting a rival ownership claim by former Rosneft chief Eduard Khudainatov as a straw-owner arrangement. The US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit only upheld the forfeiture on 1 June 2026, after more than four years of litigation, a history any future owner inherits along with the yacht.
- Expensive to hold idleUS government court filings put the cost of keeping her running while the case was litigated at roughly USD 600,000 to close to USD 1 million a month, plus separate insurance costs of around USD 144,000 a month, a real, court-documented figure for what a yacht this size costs to simply maintain unused.
- Sold well under her reported valueWidely reported as worth USD 300 to 325 million, she was sold at a US government sealed-bid auction in September 2025 for a disclosed USD 187 million, a reminder that a forced or auction sale rarely reflects a flagship yacht's true market value.
