Among the many hundreds of yachts currently for sale, a handful can be dubbed 'iconic' by reason of their design pedigree, celebrity status, performance record or history. Here we present some of the iconic superyachts for sale that are listed with BOAT. Short on ideas for Christmas?
Carinthia VII
Lürssen’s 97.2 metre Carinthia VII was launched in 2002 after being commissioned by Heidi Horten, the widow of department store owner Helmut Horten. The superyacht’s exterior was penned by Tim Heywood, who made the main deck’s windows appear as if it had no windows, only becoming visible from close range. Power comes from four MTU diesel engines for a top speed of 26 knots and a cruising speed of 22 knots. Constructed with a steel hull and aluminium superstructure, accommodation is for up to 12 guests.
Carinthia VII is currently listed for sale with Burgess, POA.
