Blohm + Voss Palladium

Bargate Murray, the City law firm and superyacht specialists, are proud to announce the delivery of the motoryacht Palladium (ex Project Orca) to their clients from Blohm + Voss on 16th September 2010. The 96 metre superyacht Palladium is a beautiful and state-of-the-art vessel, designed by Michael Leach Design. Her interior was projected by Metrica and Silverlining and the manager for the project were Marine Technical Design.

The motor yacht Palladium measures 96 metres and was first launched in March 2010. Her astonishing and ground breaking design, both exterior and interior, were designed by the well known British design studio Michael Leach Design LTD. Their hard work is reflected in full beauty of this magnificent futuristic yacht.

The futuristic super yacht PALLADIUM has been built from steel, alloy and composite with a sportive and innovative glazing feature. She is powered by two Diesel MTU engines, that power her up to 19 knots of maximum speed and allow her to cruise at the speed of 14 knots.

Arguably one of the most highly anticipated and highly stylized superyachts to launch all year, Palladium (previously known as Project Orca) was handed over to her owners last Thursday by Blohm+Voss. The owners’ representatives at the maritime law firm of Bargate Murray released the news with the clients' blessing.

To say that the 96-meter (315-foot) is striking in appearance is an understatement. She’s from the drawing boards of Michael Leach Design, and she’s a true expression of custom construction. From her flared bow to her superstructure swoops, Palladium is unlike anything else out on the water. Skylights and oversize windows bring a good deal of natural light inside, where Michael Leach Design, Metrica Interior, and Silverlining (a furnishings specialist) all contributed.

Take a look at the horizontal panes of glass, too. Between the curves adorning her upper decks and those towering panels, which also appear to bow out a bit, Palladium had to be a difficult project. Quentin Bargate, senior partner at Bargate Murray and the head of its Superyacht Group, confirms it: “There were, of course, many challenges in so complex a project but all were met and solutions found.”
