The mighty $250 million Liva O Yacht is brightening up Seattle’s maritime scene like never before. The Abeking & Rasmussen mammoth, measuring 387 feet, surpasses your typical Washington state ferry, which explains the hoopla it is generating at Lake Union. This German-built goliath is nearly the same length as Mark Zuckerberg’s Launchpad yacht (387 feet) and also commands attention like the Feadship beauty, which was also delivered in 2023. Liva O looks majestic and imposing, owing to its shiny black hull, a color of dominance, and a helicopter pad on the sky deck.
Onlookers can’t get enough of this $250 million asset floating with its discernible exterior and stylish interiors by Parisian experts Joseph Dirand Architecture. Yacht enthusiasts were left open-mouthed on learning of Liva O’s exceptional features, such as the Neptune Lounge, outfitted with 3.40m x 1.30m windows for uninterrupted views of life under the sea. Another impressive addition aboard the $250 million vessel is the 12 x 4-meter pool, which, on elevation, emulates the sea’s surface.
Onlookers can’t help but picture the outstanding vantage point afforded from the crow’s nest at the foot of the mast. The pleasure craft of billionaire Stephen Orenstein looks regal owing to a sizeable marble-clad fireplace, a rare addition outdoors, by the round sofa, making it an ambient space for social gatherings.
The 5000GT boat comes with two tender garages, one for the 16-meter day tender on the lower deck and another on the main deck for three boats, toys, and a Triton submersible for seven passengers. According to Fox13, Liva O is currently among the largest motor yachts moored at Seattle’s Lake Union.
