The latest build from renowned German shipyard, Abeking & Rasmussen, the exceptional 68m SOARING was recently launched after three years in construction. This stunning, custom-made superyacht is now in preparation for sea trials with delivery in April. She will then embark on her inaugural charter programme, locating to the western Mediterranean for the summer season.

Originally known as Project 6506, and now named SOARING after the majestic soar of an eagle, she has been built to exacting Lloyd’s Class specifications. The yacht is powered by two 2,029hp MTU 12V4000M engines, giving her a top speed of 16 knots whilst cruising at 14 knots. With an impressive 1,450 GT of interior volume, this is clearly reflected in the spacious guest areas throughout.

Designed inside and out by Focus Yacht Design, embracing a vision to create a custom-made floating home from home, SOARING leaves nothing to be desired by her owner. Described as both modern and timeless, her interior and exterior are also consistently sophisticated and elegant.

Featuring contemporary styling with a sporty contour, SOARING boasts an expansive 11.6m beam, affording superb interior volume combined with careful attention to detail. The integrated and holistic approach used by the team at Focus Yacht Design has ensured all elements work in perfect synergy, offering a harmonious transition from exterior to interior. Her stylish, light and modern interior is accentuated by beautiful artwork, while the spacious accommodation provides luxurious comfort for twelve guests in 6 staterooms.  The master suite, located on the upper aft deck, opens onto a private owner’s lounging area with an exclusive library forward, offering sensational panoramic views. All five further guest staterooms are en suite, situated on the main deck, sited with an element of individual privacy. Thanks to this functional and carefully placed layout, SOARING is an ideal yacht for families, providing plenty of flexibility and space for multi-generational charters.

All guest areas have access to audio global sources, including the spa and beach club. A variety of amenities are available to suit all requirements including Sky, Apple and Direct TV, Playstation 4, Kalidascape plus a cinema in the salon. The yacht is also equipped with Zero Speed stabilizers to add to guests’ comfort. Her crew of seventeen will be on hand to attend to every need during charters and ensure that service is delivered to the very highest level.

Thanks to an abundance of generous socialising and relaxation areas, guests on board have countless opportunities for outdoor entertainment. SOARING’s lower deck is fitted with an impressive professional gym together with lavish spa including a steam room. The yacht will also have a professional masseuse available on board to enhance guests’ relaxation and offer the opportunity to enjoy a range of exclusive spa treatments. Featuring a superb beach club, complete with swim platform, there are loungers for comfortable sunbathing, with shades if desired, plus easy access to the wide selection of water toys and tenders. Guests can enjoy all new equipment such as the 9m tender, jet skis, aqua bikes, seabobs, kayaks, inflatables and much more; as well as the yacht being an RYA approved watersports centre.

Available for charter exclusively through Ocean Independence, there is no doubt this stunning yacht is a very exciting new addition to the charter market.
