Famous Yachts Sold in 2021
Among the many hundreds of yachts currently for sale, a handful can be dubbed as 'iconic yachts' by reason of their design pedigree, for being celebrity yachts or some of the largest yachts, for their performance record, or for their history.
This year saw the sale of three famous yachts, two of which were sold by Fraser (OCTOPUS and SKAT).

OCTOPUS
The superyacht Octopus was built in 2003 by German shipyard Lürssen. She features exterior design by Espen Øino and made waves in the industry when she was launched. Often celebrated as the first superyacht of her canon, she is a true ocean explorer, an iconic yacht with a 12,500 nautical mile range. She is, to this day, considered the world’s largest explorer superyacht.
LADY MOURA
At her launch, LADY MOURA was the most expensive and innovative yacht in the world. A true statement of success, she is 105M of unparalleled quality by Blohm & Voss. LADY MOURA was registered as the ninth largest yacht ever built in an era when clients of royal status were nearly the only people owning yachts of her calibre. With the most innovative systems and engineering, LADY MOURA set a new standard in yachting, becoming a world-famous yacht and earning the accolade of the original superyacht.
SKAT
Amongst the most iconic yachts in the world, SKAT was one of the most exciting yachts sold in 2021. As striking today as when she was delivered, SKAT was beautifully built at Lürssen and has since served her original owner in worldwide cruising. A breakthrough yacht, made up of angles and sharp edges designed by renowned naval architect Espen Oeino with the concept of being a home away from home, and is perhaps the best example of Oeino’s work.
