The 90.1-metre Lürssen superyacht Ice has collided with the 31.1-metre Numarine yacht A.Mey in Yalıkavak, Turkey.
Dramatic footage taken of the incident shows Ice's bow strike A.Mey with enough force to turn the yacht. The extent of damage is unknown but A.Mey's aft section appears to be badly damaged. The yacht was anchored when the collision took place, with 12 people on board at the time. No injuries have been reported.
Ice was delivered by the German shipyard in 2005 to a design by Tim Heywood. According to BOATPro, she was most recently listed for sale in 2023. Her last known asking price of €100,000,000 made her one of the most expensive yachts for sale at the time, with highlights that include a large helipad and five bathtubs carved from solid limestone. She won Motor Yacht of the Year at the 2006 World Superyacht Awards.
Delivered in 2007, A.Mey belongs to Numarine's 102 RPH series with exterior design owed to Tommaso Spadolini.
BOAT International will update the story as it develops.
