Few yachts have made as lasting an impression as ZEUS. A true icon of modern yachting, she is a remarkable fusion of futuristic design, extraordinary engineering, and timeless luxury. Delivered in 1991, ZEUS remains as distinctive today as when she first entered the water, with a profile and striking convex windows that continue to turn heads in ports around the world. VAT paid and continuously upgraded, she offers a rare opportunity to own one of the most recognizable yachts in modern yachting history.

Her striking exterior was conceived by renowned designer Martin Francis, whose vision resulted in ZEUS’s unmistakable superstructure, sculptural lines, and signature convex-built windows. Designed to be both visually arresting and highly functional, the exterior gives ZEUS a presence unlike any other yacht of her size. Her futuristic form was paired with extraordinary performance, making her as captivating underway as she is at anchor.

Inside, the yacht was also designed by Francis together with the acclaimed French designer François Zuretti, whose work brings a sophisticated and highly crafted character to the yacht’s generous interior spaces. ZEUS accommodates up to 15 guests and 21 crew, with the upper deck dedicated entirely to the Owner. This private level includes an Owner’s lounge and alfresco dining area, creating an exceptional sense of privacy.

ZEUS’s engineering is every bit as extraordinary as her design. Her gas turbines and diesel engines deliver a combined 28,500 horsepower, propelling the yacht through waterjets and an underwater foil to an exceptional top speed of 35 knots. Remarkably, ZEUS was designed to maintain a smooth, vibration-free experience even at these speeds; an achievement that remains impressive decades after her launch.

Her technical pedigree, however, is only part of the story. ZEUS represents a moment in yacht design when convention was deliberately challenged, resulting in a yacht that looked radically different and performed at a level few could match. Her distinctive architecture, advanced propulsion system, exceptional speed, and Martin Francis exterior have secured her place as an icon of the yachting world.

ZEUS has benefited from continuous upgrades throughout her life, ensuring that her pioneering systems and luxurious spaces continue to meet modern expectations. VAT paid and carrying the pedigree of Blohm+Voss, she represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most recognizable and technically remarkable yachts ever built.
