X-treme 105 making her public debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Is it a monohull motorboat or a catamaran? An exceptional new custom build by #holtermanyachts in the Netherlands, Lady Fleur is both... And a great deal more besides. Now making her public debut at the #cannes Yachting Festival (stand SYE246), this genuinely revolutionary 105-footer has rewritten the #superyacht rule book in her size and become launch model for the new X-treme range.

Delivered earlier this summer to her delighted owners, Lady Fleur has caused many an onlooker to stop everything they're doing and stare during her first season of cruising. Did that 11-metre RIB really just emerge from a 33-metre yacht? And how come she now has a swimming pool on her aft deck that wasn't there a few minutes ago?

SHAKING UP THE MARKET

It wasn't the hot summer blurring their vision... Lady Fleur really does have a tender dock that doubles as a pool, the first of many extraordinary requests made by her owners to Robbert Holterman who runs the family shipyard that bears his name. A well-established player in the higher end of the market for classic Dutch motoryachts up to 60 feet, #holtermanyachts has no external shareholders and its solid financial foundation allowed the yard to take on Lady Fleur, shaking up the market in spectacular style.

"The owners have lots of experience with fast boats and wanted to switch to an extremely comfortable and relaxed #yacht that would be ideal for three generations of their family," Holterman explains. "Their philosophy revolved around three key issues: enhanced safety (hence the high bulwarks), hassle-free enjoyment of time spent onboard (hence the emphasis on redundancy throughout) and a radical #design that would make the most of the spaces they actually use. The latter demand and its implications for the aft section of the boat led us on a journey that has basically ripped up the rule book for boats this size".

LIGHT AND AIRY

The liberal use of glass in the exterior profile ensures that Lady Fleur's interior is bathed in natural light. Sliding open the aft deck doors accentuates the airy ambience of this beach house on the water, with all the volume of an eight-metre beam making Lady Fleur feel more like a 40-metre boat when inside. Her understated contemporary interior comes from the boards of Trimm #design and is attractively finished in American walnut with lots of leather on the bar and galley, stone accents inspired by the natural world and fabric ceilings. Discreet lighting and warm tones give Lady Fleur the warm and homely feel that the owners desired.
