Most superyachts can capably handle the hazards of the deep sea. The Edmiston Vard 1-08 Kilkea, however, takes it a whole other level, boasting unrivaled seafaring abilities that allow it to safely voyage to the remotest corners and the harshest conditions the oceans can offer.
Designed by Bannenberg & Rowell, this luxury behemoth is based on platform supply vessels – those large ships that bring supplies back and forth to oil and gas operations. Instead of transporting goods, tools, and equipment, however, it’s outfitted to support your oceanic adventures straight to the farthest corners of the Earth.
The Edmiston Vard 1-08 Kilkea measures 268 feet long, with a 59 foot beam and 16 foot draft, so it’s one massive party ship. It comes with accommodations for up to 36 guests, so you can bring an entire crew for your next oceanic journey, with enough room onboard to stock up on supplies for months. A single refueling can get you running on water for 30 days straight, with the meticulous construction and luxury appointments ensuring you’ll be safe and comfortable, regardless of which patch of the world you end up cruising in.
Aside from living accommodations, the yacht comes with expansive interiors and deck spaces for setting up recreational, dining, and relaxation areas, ensuring everyone onboard can live it up during their time on the boat. Other details include a max speed of 15.4 knots, a cruising speed of 12 knots, and an onboard helicopter hangar, so you can see the ocean from the skies when you get bored with the view from on deck.
Slated to finish sometime this year, the Edmiston Vard 1-08 Kilkea is priced at $62 million.
