TRANQUILITY - a broker's view

TRANQUILITY

Mark Woodmansey based in Hong Kong, is joint lead broker for the sale of TRANQUILITY together with Rupert Nelson based in Monaco. One of the most experienced yachting professionals in the region, Mark joined Burgess in Asia in 2015 and and has recently been promoted to lead the brokerage team. He holds a track record of handling sale and purchase transactions for yachts over 50m, including two of the top 10 brokerage deals globally in 2018 and 2019.

The stand out opportunity

She is, put simply, the stand out opportunity in the large yacht market, and there are two reasons for that. First, she is the only yacht over 80m that combines the additional safety standards and passenger capacity of the commercial PYC status, an Ice Class 1E hull and a fully certified helipad with refuelling facilities, plus another touch and go helipad on the foredeck. With a 5,000nm range she is fully capable of taking an adventurous new owner - or charter clients if she operates commercially - to the ends of the earth and back, from pole to pole, exploring the remotest corners of the planet in absolute comfort and enhanced safety.

The second reason is price. She is on the market with an asking price of EUR 149,000,000, which is appropriate for this vessel. To commission a yacht of the same calibre as TRANQUILITY, with the same impeccable pedigree, would cost in the region of EUR 200,000,000. She is priced well below replacement cost, which is compelling, and there's no four year wait before you can go cruising.

Up to 22 guests

Accommodation is both extensive and flexible, she is tremendously adaptable and well suited to all sorts of uses. The forward-facing owner's suite on the upper deck has so much natural light from a feature skylight running the length of the cabin. There's a vast his and hers bathroom, walk in wardrobes, a private owner's office, adjacent staff cabin and a private terrace forward with its own jacuzzi and endless views across the foredeck. It's quite stunning work by Winch.

The VVIP suite is on the bridge deck above, facing aft onto a private terrace and on over the huge upper deck aft to the anchorage beyond, spectacular views. The remaining seven dedicated cabins are forward on the main deck, including two VIP suites with their own folding balconies, and two further rooms are convertible as guest cabins.

Adaptable interior spaces

Two formal dining and entertaining areas on the main and upper decks are connected by a grand staircase spiralling around the elevator, and the main deck dining area could easily double as a conference room.

In short, this is a yacht on which the owner can relax with family and friends, conduct business seamlessly and impress guests and clients anywhere in the world. That's the opportunity TRANQUILITY represents and that's why she is the number one large yacht on the market.
