The new ultra luxury addition to the Imperial Charter Fleet ” Flying Fox”

Imperial is proud to announce the addition of FLYING FOX (Lurssen 136m, 2019) to our Central Agency Charter fleet. FLYING FOX is now exclusively available for charter worldwide through Imperial, who were the Yacht Management company throughout the construction process and will continue now as Operational Manager.

Named after a genus of rare and impressive bats living mostly in Asia and Australia, which are reputed to be the largest in the world, FLYING FOX’s curvy and extraordinary exterior design complimented by her dove grey hull designed by award-winning Espen Øino make her a spectacular and unique vessel. At 136-metre length and PYC compliant, her 22.5m wide beam ensure a comfortable living space together with a unique design on both exterior and interior. Her luxurious, contemporary interior design from Mark Berryman offers 11 cabins for 22 guests, all with private sea view terraces. Additional accommodation is also available on request for staff.

Built for lovers of the great outdoors, FLYING FOX provides exclusive outside key features. A special one to highlight is the 12-metre swimming pool, which runs transversely on the Main deck, a first for a superyacht of this size and a technological challenge unlocked. Everywhere on board, innovation in shape and comfort in all areas are the keywords of her layout: from her wide swim platform to the Roof deck, her modern and high level of outfitting is the theme throughout.

The genius of Monaco-based designer Espen Øino, the creative mind behind the swift and elegant curves of FLYING FOX, is featured everywhere. Creator of cosy atmospheres, his design is enhanced by round-shaped gas fireplaces on Upper deck and Bridge deck aft, built around wide and comfortable lounges with panoramic sea views. Offering a fully private Master forward area on Upper deck including its private Jacuzzi, plus another Jacuzzi on Sun deck and other multiple options of exterior lounges throughout her decks, FLYING FOX is the new definition of creativity. To make sure your privacy is kept at the highest level wherever you are cruising, FLYING FOX is also equipped with state-of-the-art onboard security system.

Built to the highest standards, FLYING FOX boasts impressive, high-ceiling interior spaces from Mark Berryman. Her calm atmosphere is enhanced by the use of warm, natural and neutral decorations and colors. Furniture and floors are made of bamboo, teak and oak which contribute to her elegance, combined with Travertine and Jerusalem stone with fine leathers throughout the whole areas. The whole design is enhanced by an immersive touch of green: real trees and plants are available throughout the vessel to recall her natural spirit. Starting on Main deck, fitted with 10 tasteful and well-designed VIP en-suite cabins, follow her spiral staircase or lift serving all decks to access the key interior area on Bridge deck. Enjoy the large 2-floor salon and wood fireplace with an impressive 22-seats dining table, or immerse yourself in the high- end Cinema room with D-box seats and state-of-the-art surrounding sound.

The main guests will enjoy a separate Master area located on Upper deck forward and made to combine professional and personal life with a certain sense of efficiency. From the aft deck with impressive outside Cinema screen, salon with wood fireplace and conference room, join this private zone designed with a great

sense of elegance: private office, bathrooms with dressing rooms (His and Hers) and a magnificent Master stateroom with en-suite private salon and trees, wood fireplace and bay window opening to the private Jacuzzi. A Beauty Centre is also included within this private area, for the ultimate privacy and relaxation.

On Roof deck, the beauties of this world will be offered to you through a panoramic exterior salon enhanced by
