$450m Superyacht OPERA Anchors in Portsmouth International Port

Opera, the tenth largest superyacht in the world, was delivered to her owners in the UK earlier this month following her launch in September 2022. 

Featuring distinctive exterior lines from the drawing board of esteemed yacht designer Terence Disdale, OPERA is yet another shining example of German shipyard Lürssen.

After being anchored in Portsmouth's International Port for several days, she is now due to continue onwards to the Mediterranean or Middle East.

Ben McInnes, Portsmouth International Port’s Harbour Master, commented: "This impressive super yacht Opera has been using the facilities at the port for a couple of days. It’s not unusual to welcome these vessels, and as a pilot it’s certainly a pleasure to go onboard although we’re only permitted to the crew based areas unfortunately. At 146m, it is one of the world’s largest superyachts, so definitely a spectacle to watch sail out of the harbour."

Despite boasting a strong white profile, seven expansive decks, twin helipads, and two open-air swimming pools, many of the key design details and specifications of OPERA remain highly secretive.
