The 83.5-metre motor yacht Savannah has been sold in-house at Edmiston, with Andrew Bond representing the seller and Jonathan Barbe introducing the buyer.
Built in the Netherlands by Feadship in 2015, the award-winning steel and aluminium superyacht was designed and engineered by Feadship and De Voogt Naval Architects, with living spaces designed by CG Design – one of only two yachting projects undertaken by the French studio.
Her sale comes almost a year after a mammoth €29,000,000 was deducted from her sales listing in June 2024. She has been on the market since September 2023.
Winner of the coveted Motor Yacht of the Year award at the 2015 World Superyacht Awards, Savannah is a truly innovative hybrid vessel with an exceptionally clean "electro-mechanic" propulsion package, claimed to provide fuel savings of 30 per cent compared to conventional yachts in her class.
As well as being one of the most sought-after charter yachts on the market, Savannah has been consistently maintained since new – with a full repaint in her statement "Sea Foam" metallic green taking place during a major refit in 2020 that cost upwards of €9,000,000, alongside numerous other upgrades.
Walls of glass wrap around her decks and Cristina Gherardi Bernadeau and Marcello Bozzarelli of CG Design rewrote the rule book when it came to her interiors, introducing curved bulkheads to replace the usual straight ones. Dark rosewood floors, silk curtains, polished columns and metallic finishes throughout create an opulent ambience.
Savannah accommodates 12 guests across six cabins, with a VIP, two doubles and two convertible cabins making up the five guest cabins forward on the main deck. A statement elevator connects all decks and the communal spaces feel absolutely vast with high deckheads.
The owner's private deck is described by the broker as "a showstopper", with a huge skylight above the bed, a dining room, saloon, office, large marble bathroom and dressing area providing an exclusive enclave, while outside there is a private terrace and helipad. There are generous quarters for a crew of 24 in 12 cabins.
Savannah's amenities include a nine-metre swimming pool on the aft deck – cascading onto the swim platform and connecting with the main saloon – a gym, a spa and Hammam, a DJ station and a barbecue on the sundeck. One of her most lauded features is undoubtedly her submerged underwater "Nemo" lounge which allows for spectacular viewings of sealife in anchorages in an amphitheatre-like setting.
