It’s the largest brokerage deal of 2017 – well, at least, so far.

Announced by Moran Yacht & Ship, yacht brokers in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the deal relates to the sale of the 85 metre ‘Solandge’.

Built by Lurssen in 2013, and on the market since summer 2015, the buyer was represented by SSH Maritime in the deal.

But let’s get to the real juicy details of the superyacht, which is based on a modern 80 metre hull and engineering platform similar to Phoenix2, Ace and Quattroelle.

From Business Insider, let’s focus on her exterior:

Solandge’s exterior design is the work of Espen Oeino, who has created harmonious lines and balanced proportions that encase a vast selection of versatile outdoor living, dining and entertainments areas.

Her panoramic top deck plays host to a beach club area with customized dance floor, Jacuzzi and bar while the bridge deck is ideal for relaxation and casual al fresco dining with a spacious seating area. On the bridge deck there is also a fully-equipped health spa featuring massage room, sauna and gymnasium leading out onto a glass-edged plunge pool.

Pretty, isn’t she?

Of course, the inside has even more to offer:

As for the interior, it is the result of collaboration between Rodriguez Interiors and Dolker & Voges, between them using more than 49 different marble and granite surfaces and 33 alternative woods. Solandge boasts a number of unique areas to accommodate all needs, ranging from a large indoor movie theatre, to a vast main salon with bar, games room and seating areas.

The superyacht can sleep up to 12 guests in 7 staterooms, including a panoramic master deck featuring 180 degree windows, private dressing room, his and hers bathrooms and a private deck with spa pool. Performance wise the yacht reaches a top speed 18 knots and comfortably cruises at 14 knots.

Yes, yes, there are photographs:

First listed for sale in August 2015 at an asking price of R2,6 billion, it has since dropped to R2,3 billion.

All I know is that if I had to buy myself a yacht like that, I would live in it and attempt to disappear because I would owe someone a lot of money.
