Lürssen completes refit on M/Y Global

Lürssen has completed the refit on M/Y Global, formerly known as Kismet. She left the shipyard at the end of June and is now in the Mediterranean.

The hull has been given a new lease of life with a stunning light grey colour and tremendous shine that Tim Morley described as, “A great credit to Lürssen’s refit team and the contractors who undertook the work”.  Further, her helicopter deck has been enhanced and is now significantly larger and safer for regular helicopter operations thanks to the consultancy services of Nigel Watson.  The larger helipad was built at Lürssen and incorporates lighting and hinged railings.

Espen Oeino was commissioned to draw the new hull lines, maintaining the DNA of the original design, and the owner is delighted with the result.

Minor changes have also been made in the interior, in accordance with the new owner's taste.

Kismet was originally delivered in 2007 and has a length of 68.15m. Morley Yachts is the owner's representative and Hill Robinson supervised the refit.

M/Y Global has already been spotted when she left the shipyard, as well as days later when she arrived in Gibraltar.
