Golden Yachts has announced the launch of the 77.7-meter superyacht O'Rea. This occasion comes on the heels of the successful launch of the 36.13-meter O'Neiro earlier this year. O'Rea is defined by its sleek hull, elongated windows, and a nearly vertical bow. The exterior design, created by Studio Vafiadis, showcases a powerful profile with muscular lines that exude strength. 



The interior of O'Rea is a collaborative work of art by Studio Vafiadis and the Italian studio Massari Design. The contemporary interior design seamlessly connects the indoor and outdoor spaces, creating a harmonious flow throughout the yacht. The creators wanted to make a strong connection between the exterior social area and the interior without any boundaries. O'Rea boasts remarkable features, including a sculpted and architectural hatch that resembles a gate, adorned with black and metallic finishes that lend a modern touch to the entrance of her beach house.



Custom-designed furniture graces O'Rea's interiors, and the ceilings of the main and upper salons are adorned with slats, creating a three-dimensional effect. The yacht showcases a selection of exquisite materials that enhance the sense of luxury, including a bespoke art collection crafted by Vasilis Dragnis in collaboration with Anna Chatzinassiou (ACH ART Advisory).

Designed for relaxation, O'Rea offers guests the opportunity to unwind in the expansive swimming pool on the main aft deck, bathed in natural light from three large skylights. This 1,596 GT yacht also features a health bar at the entrance of the lounge area, as well as a spa, sauna, massage room, and hammam.



Powered by twin Caterpillar engines, O'Rea delivers impressive performance and is equipped with a Dynamic Positioning System (DPS) that allows it to hold its position without the need for dropping anchor.

O'Rea will make its highly anticipated debut at this year's Monaco Yacht Show.

Golden Yachts was founded in 1996. The company began its activities by consulting and supervising the construction of the 42m luxury M/Y O’Pari new building at Intermarine SpA.
