The sale of the 246-foot superyacht, Arrow, is one of the largest yacht transactions this year. Within just 10 weeks on the market, the yacht, listed for €139.9 million (US$150.9 million), has found a buyer.

Arrow, delivered in 2020 by the Dutch shipyard Feadship, offers six cabins to accommodate up to 12 guests and 19 crew members, as stated in the listing by Andrew Bond of Fraser. With a size equivalent to three tennis courts, it provides a range of luxurious amenities for an exceptional experience at sea, including a beach club, cinema, and gym.

According to Bond, “In our market sector, every yacht is unique, but it must be said that some are more unique than others. Arrow offers an outstanding array of craftsmanship, intelligent, stylish yet functional design, advanced engineering, and technology that not only sets the yacht apart today but will do so for years to come.”

While the final sales price of Arrow remains undisclosed, assuming it sold close to its asking price, it may be the second-most expensive superyacht sale of the year, according to Boat International. The publication previously ranked the top yacht sales of 2023, with only one vessel, Ahpo (now Lady Jorgia), surpassing Arrow in size at 377 feet, built by German yacht builder Lürssen. Ahpo was listed for €330 million and sold in what is believed to be the largest brokerage deal in history.

Fraser declined to comment on the buyer and seller, but it was previously reported by the New York Post that Michael Platt, the London-based CEO of BlueCrest Capital Management, was selling the yacht. The exact amount Platt paid for the yacht remains unknown, and he has not responded to requests for comment.

Feadship collaborated with London-based studio H2 Yacht Design on the interior and exterior design of Arrow, as mentioned in the listing. The team possesses the “experience and insight to know what makes yachts and the yachting experience so unique and rewarding, not just for owners and guests but for the crew as well,” said Bond.

The main deck of Arrow features two cabins, including the owner’s suite with an office and dressing room, as well as a VIP stateroom. The lower deck houses four guest cabins.

Additional amenities on the yacht include a bar, sauna, massage room, dive store, and toy area in the beach club, along with a hot tub, sky lounge, outdoor dining area, elevator, and stunning 360-degree water views.

Moreover, Arrow utilizes hybrid technology, ensuring efficient energy usage with a reduced impact on the environment.
