LIONHEART yacht interior
The LIONHEART yacht features a lot of intricate details in its design that make her stand out from other comparable vessels on the market.
The interior of this yacht had exceptionally high-quality materials used in her construction, which gives her an elegant look and feel throughout all the different spaces on board.
The design house Green & Mingarelli is responsible for the luxurious interior design of LIONHEART.
The LIONHEART yacht can welcome 12 guests in her six cabins as well as a crew of 30 members of staff.
The interior of the yacht features a beach club, a beauty salon as well as expansive health and wellness facilities that include a spa, a hairdressing salon, a gym with a personal trainer, and a massage room with a masseur available at all hours.
The different floors of the yacht are connected by an elevator, and of course, the yacht has several pools, two of which are located on the upper decks.
A grand staircase is situated in the center of the yacht, which gives the vessel the likeness of a luxury hotel. The interior is furnished with exclusive furniture with dark wood and cream upholstery.
The yacht features several sizable chandeliers and other extravagant lighting fixtures. Everything about the interior of LIONHEART is lavish and luxurious, flaunting the US $150 Million price tag that this incredible vessel bears.
Specifications
The LIONHEART yacht is 90 meters (296 ft) long with a beam of 14.4 meters (47.3 ft) and a draft of 7.5 meters (24.9 ft). She was built by Benetti Yachts in Livorno, Italy, and launched in 2016.
At the time, LIONHEART was Benetti’s flagship and the largest yacht they had ever produced, overtaking NABILA (later TRUMP PRINCESS owned by Donald Trump).
Her gross tonnage lies at 2,990 GT, reaching cruising speeds of 15 knots and maximum speeds of 16 knots.
She is definitely not the fastest yacht in her size category, but her caterpillar engines are reliable and robust.
LIONHEART has an immense aluminum superstructure, and her hull was constructed from premium steel. Her traditional teak decks nicely contrast her white exterior.
The LIONHEART yacht is values at US $150 million and has annual running costs of US $10-$15 Million. She is not currently available for charter or for sale, although Green’s other yachts are.
The exterior of the LIONHEART yacht was designed by Stefano Natucci, who was also responsible for LIONESS V, Green’s previous yacht by Benetti.
Natucci has designed a total of 45 yachts, the LIONHEART yacht being the largest of his past projects.
The yacht is fitted with a sophisticated stabilizer system that ensures a comfortable experience for guests when at anchor or underway. She has a total of four decks featuring generous outdoor spaces.
The front of the bow has room for a small helipad where aircraft can land to pick up or drop off guests.
The top deck has an outdoor bar and jacuzzi, and behind the flybridge, there is a large pool.
All decks have luxurious outdoor seating with cream upholstery which is also the color of the crew uniforms aboard the LIONHEART yacht.
At the aft, the yacht has a sizable beach club and extendable swimming platform where water toys can be launched.
She also has several smaller, shaded decks with ample space for dining or parties. On both her port and starboard sides, Lionheart has small balcony decks which are attached to two of the suites.
Toys and equipment
The LIONHEART yacht carries several tenders, although her most memorable is a VanDutch 55 named Lioncub.
This tender has a black and white photograph of a lion painted on its side, making it stand out from traditional tenders and attracting yacht spotters.
LIONHEART also has a Pascoe Limousine, a Pascoe Beachlande, and a Pascoe Outboard Shuttle giving her passengers a wide selection of transportation options for shore leave or excursions.
Although exact details aren’t known, the yacht carries a large number of water toys, including jet skis and water bobs.
With a large swimming platform at the back of the vessel and an attached beach club with a lounge area, a luxury that might be desired is available to her guests.
Additional information
Construction for LIONHEART began in 2012 after the owner Green commissioned his third yacht from Benetti .
The two previous vessels were also named LIONHEART but have since been renamed LUMIERE and LIONESS V.
LUMIERE was built in 1999 and has a length of 49.9 meters (164 ft). Green sold her when he obtained LIONHEART V in 2006, and she is now available for charter.
LIONESS V has a length of 63.5 meters (208 ft) and was replaced by LIONHEART in 2016, 10 years after her launch.
Interestingly all three vessels can welcome the same number of guests, and only their amenities and length changed over the years.
LIONESS V is still owned by the Green family, more specifically Tina Green. This yacht is available for charter.

A closer look at the superyacht Lionheart offers insight into the lavish life of billionaire Philip Green. From its opulently designed outdoor spaces to its hot tubs, helipad, and roster of celebrities, this $150 million motor yacht is truly a head-turner.
Who is billionaire Philip Green?
Green is the color of money, and for a man with Green in his name, there can only be an abundance of wealth. He boasts a net worth of $1.2 billion and runs the British retail empire Arcadia Group with his wife, Cristina Green. The company was behind well-known fashion brands like Topshop, Top Man, and Dorothy Perkins but went bankrupt in 2020. The 72-year-old college dropout started his first business at age 21, importing jeans from Asia with a $30,000 loan from his family. Of course, he turned it all around and became a billionaire who is based at a London hotel during the week and spends time at home with his family during weekends in Monaco. The tycoon also owns a £20 million Gulfstream G550 private jet and two other superyachts in addition to a fancy Monopoly set gifted by his wife featuring his own acquisitions. Talk about being filthy rich!

1981-1983: Peter de Savary had her altered in 1982 and sailed her as a trail horse against Victory ’82 and Victory ’83 . By 1991 she was in the U.S. managed by Intrepid Marketing with her home port in Seekonk, MA.
since 1991: Owned by Harry H. Graves, Lionheart is sailed and raced with the Newport 12 metre fleet.

Claasen Shipyards
Lionheart, completed by Claasen in 2010, was the first J-class yacht with an aluminium hull. With a length of 43.40 metres, she was also the largest so far, although she is due to be surpassed by the SVEA project currently being built by Vitters Shipyard.
Lionheart is designed for cruising as well as racing, and is therefore built to MCA. No expense has been spared to ensure that she is competitive on the race course, and her performance has been optimised by a design that incorporates research done on previous J-class yachts. Lionheart ’s hull is built in high tensile Alustar plating and extrusion materials, and she employs longitudinal stringers to ensure maximum stiffness.
Tremendous 17-metre overhangs lend Lionheart a striking appearance. She features two deckhouses and two cockpits, with one of each reserved for the owner, and the owners’ cockpit linked to their suite for maximum privacy.
