The A Group Announces 115m Explorer Concept APEX

The exterior of the full custom 115m explorer yacht concept, Project APEX, was developed by the Monaco based design studio The A Group who worked in collaboration with Lloyd Werft Bremerhaven. Lloyd Werft, who made headlines earlier this year for the momentous delivery of 140m Project Solaris, has seen its large yacht-building capabilities taken to new creative heights on this remarkable collaboration. The interior of the vessel will be completely customisable as per the owners request. 

“APEX meets the demand of today's customers for stable, spacious and at the same time extremely robust yachts par excellence” comments André Stegmann, Senior Project Manager at Lloyd Werft. “The bow, which is almost four decks high, can cope with the heaviest weather and is also ice-going.”

The ship-like bow is designed to ensure safety and comfort for the guests on board even in adverse weather conditions out at sea. However, it is not the only impressive feature of the explorer yacht. The large open areas towards the stern of the motor yacht create space for two 20m long tenders to be parked alongside the superstructure. Alongside this, there is always room for a further mode of transport should guests need to get further afield. Underneath the fully certified heli-pad there is a hanger in which to store a helicopter securely even whilst the vessel is underway.

Inside the motor yacht's impressive 115-metres is accommodation for up to 22 guests and 48 crew members. Guests sleep on the upper or main deck whilst an entire deck is given over to the owner. The owner’s deck includes access to dressing rooms, bathrooms, an office and a lounge with private access to the 12m infinity pool. There is also a spa, a gym, a massage room and an infirmary all located at waterline level for an impressive view of the water, plus, a cinema and entertainment room on the main deck. The APEX also offers two salons and an incredibly spacious dining room that can serve 26 guests.
