The 122-metre Lürssen superyacht Kismet has arrived in London, UK after her highly-anticipated debut at this year's Monaco Yacht Show

According to BOATPro, she is anchored in Tower Bridge following a stopover in Tilbury, making her one of the largest yachts to have ever travelled the River Thames.

Kismet is also the second-largest superyacht to have ever attended the Monaco Yacht Show, eclipsed only by the 123.2-metre Golden Odyssey. She is available for charter with Cecil Wright from €3,000,000 per week which makes her one of the most expensive yachts on the charter market.

The superyacht was commissioned by repeat Lürssen client Shahid Khan, who previously owned the 95.2-metre Lürssen yacht Whisper (formerly Kismet). As the owner of Fulham Football Club, he is no stranger to the UK with the previous Kismet also frequenting the UK capital under his ownership.

Reymond Langton Design and Nuvolari Lenard were brought back together for Khan's new yacht, on interiors and exterior respectively. Her amenities are too numerous to mention, but standouts include a Balinese-inspired spa with cryotherapy chamber, chromotherapy bathtub and a dedicated gym and yoga studio with its own juice bar. Fireplaces, floor-to-ceiling glass and intricate paint and marble detailing also feature throughout.

The German yard also achieved a first with Kismet 's partially submerged lounge. The space can convert into a cinema and has extra large windows (1.1 metres by 2.8 metres) that dip under the waterline.

BOAT International was offered an exclusive look on board Kismet, which was published in this month's issue of BOAT International magazine

Other noteworthy superyachts that have traversed British waters include the 109-metre Bravo Eugenia, the 63.7-metre Scout and the 110-metre Kaos.
