Siren was in the beautiful Hardangerfjord yesterday. Thanks to Svein for the great top shot with the Melderskin and Laurdalstind mountains in the background.

Siren, a.k.a. Nobiskrug 778, was launched in December 2007, in Rendsburg. She was designed by Hamburg-based Newcruise Design.

Nobiskrug are also building 68-metre #780, designed by Australian-based Pure Design, and #779, which is 59.5m and designed by Felix Buytendijk.

5 May 2008: Neill sent in the top photo of Silver behind the Loews this evening. Good looking yacht !

The aluminium-hulled Silver is the latest megayacht to be built in Western Australia. She is the world's largest aluminium yacht . Her design includes a low profile for improved speed and fuel efficiency and a shallow draft, which provides greater coastal access and a highly responsive helm. She is destined for the charter market and will accommodate 18 guests.

Hanseatic Marine are currently building another 73 m sistership, MY Fangio, for delivery in 2009, and are working on a 90 m concept with Oeino.
