“Beyond Horizons” is designed as an exclusive private members club at sea and aims to create a new category in the field of luxury maritime experiences. The project combines sophisticated design, the highest quality standards, and an innovative usage concept for an international community of members.
The approximately 155 meter yacht was developed in collaboration with yacht specialists from Splendid Sea, German yacht designer Dölker + Voges Design, and Mercedes Benz Design. On board, 30 identical, spacious residential suites are planned, each offering around 74 square meters of living space, private balconies, and unobstructed sea views. The concept deliberately focuses on privacy, exclusivity, and individual experiences rather than traditional cruise or charter offerings.
The partnership between the Maybach Ocean Club and Lloyd Werft Bremerhaven was formally sealed during an official signing of a preliminary agreement at the Mercedes Benz Centre of Excellence. Representatives of both companies jointly marked the beginning of the next project phase.
“Our client is pursuing an extraordinary and forward looking approach to the yachting of tomorrow with this community concept. We see great potential for new market segments and user groups,” says Lloyd Werft shareholder and managing director Thorsten Rönner. “For Lloyd Werft, the focus is on the demanding task of turning this vision into reality with the highest level of engineering and manufacturing expertise. The cooperation represents a step into new territory for all partners and demonstrates the potential that lies in combining bold ideas with maritime expertise. Thanks to our shareholder structure, we are exceptionally well positioned as Lloyd Werft. With Lürssen and ZECH, we have strong partners at our side. In particular, the decades of experience and international reputation of Lürssen in building the most sophisticated yachts provide an excellent foundation for successfully realizing a project of this scale and innovative strength.”
The planned yacht will accommodate up to 72 members and guests. In addition, six guest cabins are planned for family members and friends. Planned onboard features include:
Spacious panoramic lounges
Various gastronomy and fine dining concepts
Wellness and spa areas
A beach club with direct access to the sea
A two level infinity pool and extensive sun decks
Cultural and entertainment programs with live music and art exhibitions
A separate support vessel for helicopters, tenders, water sports equipment, and logistical operations
The design is inspired by the distinctive automotive aesthetics of Mercedes Maybach and transfers characteristic design elements of the brand into the maritime world.
Delivery of the yacht is scheduled for 2030.
