Let's step onboard the spectacular 111m superyacht constructed by respected German shipyard Lurssen.
According to Forbes, Tis was built for Alexei Fedorychev. He owns the Ukrainian transport company TIS. The Russian billionaire is the founder of Fedcominvest, sponsor of AS Monaco FC, and the former owner of the Russian football clubs FC Dynamo Moscow and FC Rostov. Alexei resides in Monaco. However, there are rumors in the industry that Alisher Usmanov is the new buyer of the superyacht, as his current yacht Dilbar is heading for a refit this year.
The luxury yacht can accommodate up to 18 guests in absolute comfort with a crew of 38 members. There is a dedicated crew elevator. Tis has a very classic styled interior, which deserves to be located in the best palaces of the world. The vessel was designed by Winch Design.
The vessel features 2 helicopter pads, a 12m swimming pool, a resort-inspired spa in the aft of the boat, and palatial breathtaking staircases.
The design is leaned on all of the owner's favorite places, such as Provence, Tuscany, New York, London, Morocco, South East Asia, and a Russian dacha. These influences are carefully combined and put into a classical Parisian setting. In terms of elegance indeed some of the interiors could be from Versailles itself.
The helipad on board Tis doubles as an outdoor cinema or dance floor, giving guests many opportunities to have an incredible time outside.
When the weather is not that good guests can watch movies in cozy onboard cinema finished in a fitting dark art deco style.
Also, guests can travel even inside the superyacht. The original interior idea was to make each guest suite in the atmosphere of a geographical region from all around the world.
You can find yourself in New York, London, Paris, Marrakech, China, Toscani, and other amazing destinations, staying in one of those rooms.
The owner's deck is extending further beyond the stateroom. Due to precious metals as well as the use of cream and tranquil green, make this one of the most laid back areas on the yacht. The deck also includes a private beauty salon, massage room, and separate bathrooms.
Entering aft along the upper deck, an intimate Parisian style tea room has been put in place. It features Louis XVI-inspired sofas and armchairs. Green, purple and pink colors give the space a feminine atmosphere which is also reflected by the curtains and cushions.
The superyacht is powered by MTU engines of 4350 hp each and a cruising speed of 18 knots. Tis's maximum range is estimated at 7000 nautical miles.
Lürssen has launched the 114-meter megayacht Cosmos, a hybrid vessel equipped with two 500 kW methanol fuel cells that enable emissions-free cruising for extended periods. The yacht, introduced as part of the company’s 150th anniversary, can travel up to 1,000 nautical miles on electricity alone and remain at anchor with zero emissions for up to 15 days.Commissioned by an undisclosed owner, Cosmos features an all-steel hull reinforced to Ice Class 1D, allowing navigation in polar waters as well as across all major oceans. Alongside its methanol-based hydrogen power system, the yacht is fitted with diesel generators, engines, and tanks to allow conventional propulsion for higher speeds.Designed inside and out by Marc Newson, the vessel has a beam of 18 metres (59 feet), a gross tonnage of 6,300, and spans six decks. The design incorporates extensive use of glass, including a custom-engineered glass-domed owner’s study offering 360-degree views, a surrounding sky terrace, and an observation lounge located beneath the helipad.Outdoor amenities include a main deck with a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, seating areas, and an aft dry dock for tender operations. The combination of ice-class construction, hybrid propulsion, and large-scale glazing represents Lürssen’s latest application of advanced engineering to meet evolving environmental and design goals.Credits: Lürssen
