BOLD is an 85.3-metre explorer motor yacht delivered in 2019 by the Australian shipyard SilverYachts, the yard’s flagship and one of the most striking superyachts on the water. Marking the 50th yacht from the illustrious designer and naval architect Espen Oeino, she was conceived as a genuine world cruiser, an all-aluminium, military-inspired vessel with a knife-edge profile and a striking grey exterior that would not look out of place among the destroyers of a naval port, yet is immaculately faired and finished to immerse her guests in the highest levels of luxury. Beneath that tough, purposeful exterior lies a highly efficient, high-performance platform, capable of a top speed of around 23 knots and, thanks to a shallow draft of under three metres, able to access remote and shallow cruising grounds far beyond the reach of most yachts her size. With storage for up to five months of provisions and a range measured in thousands of nautical miles, she is equally at home in the tropics or the poles. Life aboard BOLD is built around indoor and outdoor living on a grand scale. Her aft deck stretches over 30 metres and serves as a vast lounging area, party space and helideck in one, certified for a twin-engine helicopter and readily converted into an open-air dance floor. A defining feature is her winter garden, a light-filled space physically and visually connected to the main saloon that can be closed off with weathertight doors and enjoyed anywhere in the world at any time of year. Elsewhere she offers a main salon with a media wall and bar, an eight-person sundeck jacuzzi surrounded by glass for shelter and privacy, a spa, a gym, an outdoor cinema, underwater lights and an extraordinary array of toys, from Laser sailboats and WaveRunners to kite surfers and full dive equipment. Accommodation is arranged for up to 12 guests across eight spacious en-suite cabins, comprising a generous owner’s suite, three VIP cabins and four double cabins. The owner’s suite is a private retreat in its own right, with his-and-hers en-suite bathrooms and a private salon that opens directly onto the exterior decks. Every cabin is finished to an exacting standard, combining the practical, functional ethos of a serious expedition yacht with genuine comfort and contemporary style. A professional crew of around twenty, specialists in creating exceptional charters, ensures seamless service throughout, from gourmet dining in multiple venues to effortless days ashore. Powered by twin MTU engines, BOLD cruises efficiently at 16 to 18 knots with impressive fuel economy for her size. She spends her summers in the Western Mediterranean and her winters in the Caribbean and Bahamas, and with her world-cruising capability she can take charter guests to the most far-flung corners of the globe. For those seeking adventure without compromise, aboard a yacht that is as capable as it is spectacular, BOLD is in a class of her own. The largest yacht ever built by SilverYachts and a genuine statement of intent, she combines the go-anywhere freedom of a true explorer with the entertainment spaces and service of a full luxury superyacht. Available for charter through Cecil Wright and Partners, BOLD is offered at rates from EUR 875,000 per week plus expenses.
