BLACK PEARL yacht interior
BLACK PEARL has a spacious interior, almost like a large motor yacht. She has a glass elevator, a spa pool, and a hot tub for the people on board to enjoy. There is also a beach club cinema.
Designed by Nuvolari Lenard, in collaboration with architect Gerard Villate, the interior is not very well known. No pictures of the interior have ever been released.
We do know that the interior design was a tribute to the design of Louis XVI, with ornate wooden details and gold accents.
There are also some influences from the Art Deco era. We also know that there is a grand dining room, set up to host up to 16 dinner guests.
Specifications
The Black Pearl yacht has an overall length of 106,7 meters (35 ft). The beam is 15 meters (49,3 ft) and has a top speed of 15 knots.
The cruising speed is 12 knots. Her sails can be raised in just seven seconds with the push of a button, and she can cross the Atlantic using under a liter of fossil fuel.
She is economical in other aspects too. Regenerative power under sail, for example.
The late owner wanted to have less of an impact on the environment and set up several environmentally friendly solutions.
The Black Pearl yacht has room for up to twelve guests in her six staterooms.
Exterior
The Black Pearl yacht’s exterior was designed by Nuvolari Lenard, the same as the interior. In collaboration with Ken Freivokh Design, they created her distinct look.
The black color covers most of her exterior, and her sails have a mechanism that allows them to be folded, in order to pass through the Panama canal.
She also possesses the largest DynaRig in the world. In fact, she has three of them.
There is some mystery regarding the different features of her exterior, same as for the interior, but thanks to aerial photographs there is known to be a hot tub aft on one of the three decks, and a pool aft on the main deck.
