At this year's Monaco Yacht Show, I had the great pleasure of taking a tour aboard
Arkley, Lurssen's new 196-foot, Espen Oeino designed vessel.
As you can see in the photos here, she's got a very contemporary interior, courtesy of Mark Berryman, which Lurssen says give her a "youthful" feel. The company also says that in the case of this boat, the beauty's in the details, and I've got to heartily agree. I was particularly impressed by the intricacy of the the wave patterned oak used throughout much of her interior, her staircase's braided leather handrail, and her main dining table, which is made from "bog oak" and features a silverleaf centerpiece, one that's mirrored in the room's ceiling and carpet as well.
Here are a few shots of this truly stunning vessel—more photos to come in a later installment. Enjoy! (All photos courtesy of Lurssen and Klaus Jordan.)
