The end of 2010 signalled the beginning of a new build for Alloy Yachts with the cutting of plate for 43.9m sailing yacht hull number AY45.

The World’s largest superyacht ECLIPSE measuring 162.5m (533ft) has left the Blohm & Voss yard in Hamburg, Germany around one year after the megayacht was completed.
MTN Satellite Communications (MTN) announced today after successful sea trials of yacht ECLIPSE that it is the chosen VSAT services provider for the 557-foot superyacht Eclipse, the world’s largest yacht. The global service company provides communications, connectivity, and content services to remote locations around the world, with its partners Jetstream and e3 Systems to superyachts.
The huge steel displacement superyacht ECLIPSE measures around 170 metres, making her the world’s largest (or longest) private mega yacht in the world. M/Y ECLIPSE was designed by Hermidas Atabeyki with interior designs by the very well know yacht designer Terrence Disdale. She was built by the Thyssenkrupp Blohm + Voss shipyard in Hamburg, is a large industrial giant in Germany. The mega yacht has a gross tonnage of around 13,000 tonnes and superyacht Eclipse is slightly larger (around 36 ft longer) than the world’s previous longest private luxury yacht Dubai at 162 m, as owned by Sheikh Mohammed of Dubai.
The accommodation onboard ECLIPSE includes a 56m private yacht owner’s deck as well as additional space for as many as 92 further crewmembers and staff. This should be more than enough for friends and family to enjoy South Africa and the 2010 Football World Cup.
