Despite being only five months into the year, 2024 has already proven to be highly exciting for the superyacht industry. From the launch of the first hydrogen fuel cell superyacht, to the world’s largest true sportfish vessel hitting the water, a spectacle of iconic moments have already unfolded and captivated the industry's attention. In light of this, Superyachts.com takes a look at the five largest yachts to be sold in 2024, showcasing the very best of the brokerage market so far this year.
KOGO - 72m
On the 27th March, Burgess announced the in-house sale of 71.7m motor yacht KOGO, with Partner and Senior Broker Dominic Millman representing both the buyer and the seller. She is the largest yacht to be sold so far in 2024, handed over to her third Owner since her delivery in 2006.
She was built by Alstom, featuring exterior design by Tim Heywood and interiors penned by Terence Disdale Design, able to accommodate up to 14 guests across seven cabins. KOGO features a range of remarkable amenities, including everything from a wellness suite to both an indoor and outdoor cinema, offering the very best of luxury yachting to her new Owner.
Her last known asking price was $62,500,000.
ALFA - 70m
Benetti’s 70m ALFA was sold in February, with Anton Foord, Sales and Purchasing Consultant at Ocean Independence, representing the buyer and Fraser Yachts representing the seller.
This award-winning, never-been-used superyacht was built in 2020, with the Italian yard overseeing both her exterior design and naval architecture. Laura Pomponi created her contemporary interiors, which are characterised by a combination of elegance and functionality, a highlight being her main salon that offers an abundance of natural light due to wide panoramic windows.
She can accommodate up to 14 guests across seven cabins, with her Owner benefiting from a dedicated Owner’s deck. ALFA also boasts spectacular exterior spaces, including a full-beam beach club with fold-down balconies that allow those on board to fully connect to their surroundings.
VASSA - 69m
Previously called DRIZZLE and now renamed VASSA, Feadship’s 69m motor yacht was sold in April, with Hamilton Marine International representing the buyer. She was delivered in 2012 and features a timeless exterior profile by Studio De Voogt, whilst offering a beautiful blend of classic and modern interior stylings by RWD.
VASSA is able to accommodate up to 12 guests across seven cabins, and up to 18 crew members to ensure the most premium service onboard. She is the perfect yacht to fully make the most of the ocean environment, featuring a tender bay and water sports garages that are able to host an array of water toys. From Pro Race Jet surfs to an Aquaglide jellyfish pool, every single person onboard VASSA is able to have a thrilling experience on the water.
DAPPLE - 67m
After just 18 days on the market, 67m DAPPLE was sold by Y.CO in February: a unique support vessel delivered by Damen Yachting in 2014. She features a striking profile, boasting impressive speed and efficiency, with a range of over 8,700nm at 13 knots. She is the perfect yacht to embark on global adventures, with a 360 degree bridge offering total visibility.
DAPPLE can accommodate a crew of 20 across 13 cabins, and is also able to act as a standalone explorer by assigning three cabins as guest staterooms with a crew of 16. The highlights of this support vessel are remarkable, featuring everything from a fully commercial helideck to a fully equipped gym, making her as luxurious as she is functional.
Whilst her final sale price is unknown, she was last listed for sale for €28,000,000 in September 2023.
LUNA B - 66m
A spectacular start to 2024, Oceanco’s 66m LUNA B was sold in January, with Superyacht Partners introducing the buyer and Large Yacht Corp representing the seller. She was delivered in 2005 and completed a full rebuild in 2020, boasting generous proportions both inside and out.
Up to 16 guests can be accommodated on LUNA B across eight cabins, a highlight of her design being a full-beam master stateroom that features its own distinct saloon area, with a drop-down television screen and a private office. Whilst her interior design created by Alberto Pinto is something to be marvelled at, her exteriors are also spectacular, with her deck spaces reconfigured to maximise the diversity of outside areas. LUNA B boasts a large pool surrounded by sun pads, entertaining spaces located across all decks, and an array of al fresco dining spaces.
