Vava II Hits The Caribbean

Mega Yacht Global reader Peter Glahn has taken these wonderful pictures of the most talked about Megayacht of the last year, the 96m (315ft) Vava II. The pictures were taken in the North Sound, Virgin Gorda in the BVI. Vava II was launched on the 10th of September 2011 by Pendennis Plus and is currently the largest privately owned Megayacht ever to be constructed in Britain.

She was designed by Redman Whitely Dixon and the interior was designed by Remi Tessier who has produced some excellent designs in the past which include Heesen yachts Satori 163ft and two Perini Navi's Parsifal III 177ft and Salute 183ft so the interior of Vava II will be to the highest standard.
Above is a great shot of her gull wing doors in the bow for tender and toy storage. If any readers want to share their Megayacht pictures with Mega Yacht Global please send them to the following email address: megayachtglobal@gmail.com

Britain's Largest Mega Yacht "Vava II" Splashes

On the 10th of September the shipyard Devonport Yachts soon to be named Pendennis Plus due to the re-branding that the Pendennis yard are under taking, launched the Largest privately owned Mega Yacht ever to be constructed in Britain. The yacht that can be seen below was originally called project P55 became formally known as Vava II 315ft.

With the name of the yacht confirmed as Vava II speculation about the new owner has arisen suggesting that it might have been commissioned by Ernesto Bertarelli a Swiss born pharmaceuticals magnet and owner of the ex Americas Cup team Alinghi as his old Mega Yacht was called Vava 155ft built by Feadship in 1996.

The owner has requested that the specs of the yacht be kept private, but we can say that the yacht was designed by Redman Whitely Dixon and the interior was designed by Remi Tessier who has produced some excellent designs in the past which include the recently launched Heesen yacht Satori 163ft and two Perini Navi's Parsifal III 177ft and Salute 183ft so expect the interior of Vava II to be of the highest standard.

Vava II will begin her sea trials in October and will be delivered to her owner shortly after that.
