85m Lurssen PACIFIC



Lurssen Yachts' latest launch, the 85 metre superyacht Pacific arrived in Gibraltar. Pacifice, formerly project Josi, is one of the most striking superyachts of the year and she was lauched by Lurssen in July 2010.

The unusual exterior styling of the yacht comes from the drawing board of the Argentinean design studio of German Frers, while the interior of Pacific has been designed by Bannenberg & Rowell Design.
Yacht PACIFIC displays a unique styling in her exterior design. As can be seen here, her topsides have two openings on her starboard side which are likely tender and water toy garages which will also double as swimming platforms and landing areas.
German Frers which is perhaps more traditionally associated with sailing yacht design, is the experienced design office responsible for the Pacific yacht’s individual look. The Argentinean naval architect has managed a quite traditional look which is also modern and pleasing on the eye. M/Y Pacific has a comparatively lower centre of gravity and a squarer and perhaps more expedition look than many other superyachts of her length.
