Lürssen's 82-metre superyacht Project Cali is now officially known as Haven. The yacht has been handed over to her owner and is currently undertaking her maiden voyage down the Kiel Canal and onwards to Gibraltar, according to BOATPro.
She marks the third Lürssen delivery of the year, after 138.8-metre Luminance and 122-metre Kismet in February and May respectively.
Designed in-house by Lürssen's Jim Robert Sluijter, Haven is characterised by a straight bow and expansive deck spaces that place a "great emphasis on outdoor conviviality". Her sinuous concave patterns that run across her superstructure are to reflect the movement of waves when the sun is in the right position.
Sluijter added: “The owner fell in love with the first outline of the project, and as a result, Haven has barely changed from the original sketch. Haven feels very different from many other yachts; she has a practical and functional design that places great emphasis on outdoor living. Thanks to an interplay of light and glazing, all interior spaces are well connected with the outdoors.”
Speaking to BOAT International at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, Sluijter said the project had been designed for a family-orientated and active client. While full details are yet to be disclosed, her interiors have been designed by RWD, marking the second interior collaboration between the pair since 155-metre Al Said in 2008.
Mattia Mazzucchi, head of interiors at RWD, said: “Striking artworks draw the eye with their vibrancy around every corner. Bold, confident, fun, and energetic, where the joy of colour takes centre stage.”
Haven's sundeck spans an impressive 30 metres, while her beach club benefits from fold-down platforms that create sea terraces port and starboard. Other highlights include an al fresco dining area with a barbecue, pizza oven and outdoor cinema. Key numbers include a draught of 3.5 metres and beam of 12.5 metres.
Managing director at Lürssen Peter Lürßen said: “Kees de Keizer and his team, who oversaw the build on behalf of the owner, and RWD were exceptional partners throughout the construction of Haven, and the relationships they forged with our employees are incredibly robust. I would like to extend my gratitude to everyone involved in Haven; the results testify to their upstanding communications and commitment to the project.”
According to BOATPro, Lürssen has seven yachts currently under construction. This includes the 142-metre Project Ali Baba, which was launched in December 2023.
