Published: 19 Feb 2025
Oceanco, the renowned Dutch boat builder, in collaboration with the boundary-pushing Vripack, captivates the nautical world with the dazzling 101-meter superyacht 'Lily'.

The celebrated Dutch manufacturer Oceanco, in conjunction with their Netherlands counterpart, Vripack, has taken the nautical world by storm with the unveiling of their latest opulent creation, the ‘Lily’. This 101-meter superyacht, part of Oceanco’s Beyond Custom series, floats majestically, creating an imposing sight on the water. Unearthed at the 2025 Dubai International Boat Show, ‘Lily’ encapsulates a fusion of innovation, luxury, and sophistication. As its name implies, the design of this vessel draws heavily on the natural world, evoking images of lilypads that emerge from the water by day and retreat by evening. The asymmetric bow design, walkaround decks, and a spacious heliport testify to the ingenious craftsmanship of Vripack. Cavernous storage space for four tenders and a helicopter further emphasizes the imposing scale of this maritime marvel. Fashioned for ‘visionaries and trailblazers’, this yacht features large windows, interior glass, and boasts a generous 5,600GT. This results in a breathtaking visual impact with extended sight lines and unexpected delightful vantage points. The unique features that characterise this yacht offer an innovative amalgamation of function and aesthetics. With overlapping decks and exquisite sculptural architecture, enabled through pioneering monocoque construction, this vessel is centered around an open plan design aimed at maximizing space and creating an uninhibited flow throughout. Augmenting its majestic charm, the top deck hosts a dedicated owner’s private sanctuary, a luxurious apartment complete with a terrace that offers an unobstructed, panoramic view traditionally reserved for the bridge. Oceanco and Vripack’s ‘Lily’ is undoubtedly a spectacular tribute to the marvels of modern nautical design. Evocative of ambition, it beckons to those who dare to leave their mark on the seas.
