Hello Fellow sailors and subscribers! Here comes my new project the Pelorus yacht! I hope that you are going to like it, and other yachts are coming very very soon ;)

Commissioned by a Saudi Arabian businessman, Pelorus was built at the Lürssen yard in Bremen, Germany, to the design of Tim Heywood and launched in 2003. It was sold to Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich in 2004. Abramovich had it refitted by Blohm & Voss, adding a second helicopter pad (forward), four zero-speed stabilizers, and modifications to the exhaust, mast, and stern.

Pelorus is powered by two 5,500-hp Wärtsilä 12v 26 engines with a maximum speed of 19 knots, but often cruises between 12 to 14 knots. Details about the interiors are scant, as Abramovich was protective of his family's privacy and highly security conscious. The yacht has a number of tenders on board and a garage full of 'toys', including jet skis.
