By Heather Collier

Abeking & Rasmussen’s 82m superyacht Secret has now been sold for the first time since her delivery in 2013.

Secret is a custom superyacht launched in 2013 by Abeking & Rasmussen in Lemwerder, Germany and most recently refitted in 2018.

She has been kept in impeccable condition by her previous owner and has undergone regular maintenance over the course of the past few years; most recently completing her five-year Class Survey in 2021, along with a full repaint in 2017.

Adding to her all-star build team Australian designer Sam Sorgiovanni, who was responsible for crafting her clean and distinctive lines, Secret was undeniably one of the most critically acclaimed megayachts to be on the market today. 

Sorgiovanni's innovative flair and distinctive craftsmanship has earned him a global reputation and the leading design role on some of the most iconic yachts on the ocean today.

Her open, versatile layout penned by J.W. Harris is complimented by a contemporary nod to the 1920s and Art Deco era. Secret can sleep up to 12 guests in six luxurious staterooms, with an additional seventh able to host up to three children or staff.

Secret measures 82.50 feet in length, with a beam of 12.40 feet, and a gross tonnage of 2,240 tonnes. She has a top speed of 16.50 knots and a cruising speed of 14.00 knots, and is powered by a twin screw propulsion system. She also has a range of 5,000 nautical miles.

Her onboard amenities include a number of stylish bars, a plush cinema room, a fully-equipped gym, elevator access to all decks, a lavish massage room and beauty salon, a Jacuzzi, and two large tenders. 

Asking at around the €78,500,000 mark at the time of her sale, Matt Emerson from Burgess represented the seller during the negotiations, while Andrew Bond of Fraser Yachts stood in for the buyer.

It remains no secret that a yacht of this calibre and class has been taken off the market once more. Superyachts.com would like to extend our congratulations to all parties involved.
