The specialist online news agency said: “Construction of the top-secret superyacht Luminance began in 2018 before she was moved to outfitting in February 2021. Details about the motor yacht have been kept tightly under wraps, but she is estimated to have an internal volume of 9,000GT.

Luminance follows the launch and sea trials of the 146m superyacht Opera in November 2022. The builder has 10 other superyacht projects either under way or pending. These include the 137m Alibaba due in 2024 and the 122m Jag in 2023.” 

Lurssen also recently launched Project 1601 (click for article), a 90m Espen Øino-designed displacement motor yacht. Interiors are by German studio Dolker + Voges and naval architecture is by Lürssen.
