Her gross tonnage lies at 2,990 GT, reaching cruising speeds of 15 knots and maximum speeds of 16 knots.

Natucci has designed a total of 45 yachts, the LIONHEART yacht being the largest of his past projects.
The yacht is fitted with a sophisticated stabilizer system that ensures a comfortable experience for guests when at anchor or underway. She has a total of four decks featuring generous outdoor spaces.
The front of the bow has room for a small helipad where aircraft can land to pick up or drop off guests.
The top deck has an outdoor bar and jacuzzi, and behind the flybridge, there is a large pool.
All decks have luxurious outdoor seating with cream upholstery which is also the color of the crew uniforms aboard the LIONHEART yacht.
At the aft, the yacht has a sizable beach club and extendable swimming platform where water toys can be launched.
She also has several smaller, shaded decks with ample space for dining or parties. On both her port and starboard sides, Lionheart has small balcony decks which are attached to two of the suites.
Toys and equipment
The LIONHEART yacht carries several tenders, although her most memorable is a VanDutch 55 named Lioncub.
This tender has a black and white photograph of a lion painted on its side, making it stand out from traditional tenders and attracting yacht spotters.
LIONHEART also has a Pascoe Limousine, a Pascoe Beachlande, and a Pascoe Outboard Shuttle giving her passengers a wide selection of transportation options for shore leave or excursions.
Although exact details aren’t known, the yacht carries a large number of water toys, including jet skis and water bobs.
With a large swimming platform at the back of the vessel and an attached beach club with a lounge area, a luxury that might be desired is available to her guests.
Additional information
Construction for LIONHEART began in 2012 after the owner Green commissioned his third yacht from Benetti.
The two previous vessels were also named LIONHEART but have since been renamed LUMIERE and LIONESS V.
LUMIERE was built in 1999 and has a length of 49.9 meters (164 ft). Green sold her when he obtained LIONHEART V in 2006, and she is now available for charter.
LIONESS V has a length of 63.5 meters (208 ft) and was replaced by LIONHEART in 2016, 10 years after her launch.
Interestingly all three vessels can welcome the same number of guests, and only their amenities and length changed over the years.
LIONESS V is still owned by the Green family, more specifically Tina Green. This yacht is available for charter.
