The Norwegian fjords became the sea trials testing ground for 88m/289ft luxury yacht OLIVIA O ahead of delivery to her Owner at the end of 2018 or early next year.
Designed by commercial shipbuilders Ulstein in collaboration with Espen Oeino, M/Y OLIVIA O sports an X-Bow, a type of inverse bow developed by Ulstein to increase fuel efficiency with reduced drag in the water to handle the roughest seas.
The Semi-completed hull is the first foray for Ulstein into the luxury yacht market who is working with experienced partners to create a truly-up-to-date and desirable vessel: Among her amenities is a massive heli-deck and a 10m/66ft swimming pool on the main deck aft that receives sunlight due to the cut-out sections in the decks above. Outfitting of the interiors will then continue at the shipyard.
