Murdoch's superyacht 'Sarissa' arrives

Dutch carbon-fibre performance sloop with cockpit swimming pool.

Lachlan and Sarah Murdoch’s stunning new carbon-fibre superyacht Sarissa has arrived in Sydney in time for summer. Designed by Bill Tripp and built by Dutch yard Vitters, the cutting-edge yacht was two years in the making and is the largest carbon-fibre sloop built to date in the Netherlands.

Vitters Shipyard's website describes  Sarissa as a spectacular 42.6 m carbon globetrotter and performance sloop with a fully modern hull shape, sail plan, and foils. 

Hydraulic sailing and deck systems are said to provide improved reaction speed, load and stiffness to safely facilitate the sailing performance this modern and technical yacht was designed for.

Other custom technical features are an in-house developed hydraulic steering system with rudder feedback, as well as a unique system of back stays and running stays to operate both her cruising and racing sail configurations. The yacht has a lifting keel.

The mainsheet has been placed on an arch spanning the cockpit to keep the deck clear, while the aft cockpit can be transformed into a swimming pool for the kids.

Sarissa's design was guided by close client input and involvement, says Vitters, adding that the yacht will be used to sail all over the world with the family in tow and will take part in the established superyacht regattas.

The layout and deck plan emphasise a clean and modern look, while the family friendly layout below decks boasts a full-beam after stateroom, three guests cabins and three crew cabins.

The stunning interior is by Rhoades Young Design Ltd using a combination of limed oak, dark Italian walnut, Indian rosewood, carbon, dark leather and brushed stainless steel.

Finished in swordfish blue Alexseal paint, with a Ribling 555 tender in the 'garage', the 163 tonne Sarissa has a 56m carbon mast and will be hard to miss moored at Wooloomooloo in Sydney’s CBD.

Meantime, father Rupert reportedly listed his 184ft yacht Rosehearty , built by Perini Navi in Italy in 2006, for sale in September this year for $29.7 million. This followed his divorce from wife Wendi Deng.

She is a design collaboration between the shipyard, Malcolm McKeon Yacht Design and Studio Liaigre for the interior design. With a flush deck and what looks like a stylishly furnished stern and cockpit area, she also has a huge transom which will open to create an expansive beach club and storage garage.

OVERWHELMING RAIN OF PRESTIGIOUS AWARDS FOR SARISSA

…at Boat International’s Design & Innovation Awards in Kitzbühel, Austria:

  • Best Exterior Design – Sailing Yachts: Sarissa
  • Best Interior Design – Sailing Yachts: Sarissa
  • Best Naval Architecture – Sailing Yachts: Sarissa

Aside of the recognition for the design, there is obviously excitement and gratitude on the part of the build team, who turned the design into reality. In addition, the team of Royal Huisman is particularly honored by the following additional awards:

  • Eco Award: Sarissa’s board systems
  • Innovation of the Year: Sarissa’s forward facing retractable electric propulsion

Sarissa – project 404 – high-performance sloop with retractable propulsion – 59.7m / 196ft – naval architecture: Malcolm McKeon – interior design: Liaigre – owners’ representative: Gregory Monks – hull material: Alustar® aluminium – superstructure: Carbon composite – delivery by Royal Huisman: 2023 – more information about Sarissa can be found at this website > delivered yachts [ link ]

Comments from the report by the judges:

Outstanding Exterior Design – Sailing Yachts: “…the level of development and detail on board Sarissa, which is based on a performance cruising boat profile, won the judges over. They remarked on the ‘stunning coachroof’ perfectly sleek and integrated; the ‘very clean’ design made possible by the hidden captive winches and hardware; the ‘lovely shapes’; and the design and execution level of the exterior furniture in the very livable cockpit, which several judges said they had never seen to date on a sailing yacht. The design perfectly reflects the brief of the experienced owners who wished for a modern-looking yacht with easy water access, comfort, shade, infinite water views, a jacuzzi and a climbing wall, along with performance. From bow to stern, no detail has been overlooked.”

Best Interior Design – Sailing Yachts: “In Greek, sarissa means a long, sharp spear. Its innovation in the third century BCE facilitated Alexander the Great’s empire, thus it is synonymous with technology, speed, strength and excellence. This Sarissa is all those things in a very private family boat destined for long passages and time at anchor. The interior is relaxed, homelike, fresh in chic simplicity and intelligent in the use of space. Vertical portlights drove the interior arrangement and led to the development of custom furniture that would not obscure the views, nor are features such as chainplates, sloping hull sides or the keel trunk hidden. The colour palette is simple with clear light oak, white lacquer and accenting leather. The unpredictability of the layout is a key feature. All cabins are unique, corridors gently curve, stairs are off centreline, the owner’s suite flows to a private beach club and the cinema hosts cosy elevated reading nooks.”

Best Naval Architecture – Sailing Yachts:  “The four finalists for this category prove that sailing yachts continue to get more efficient and performance-oriented each year. After the naval architecture subcommittee crunched the numbers – evaluating the yachts on 35 points – the two top candidates were a hair’s breadth apart, although their mission statements were somewhat different. While Nilaya had the more complex brief and an innovative construction approach, the final result is that Sarissa presents the best all-around sailing ability, range, comfort quotient and stability. Both naval architects availed themselves of high-end CFD and FEA research. However, managing the much larger weights and loads of Sarissa, especially with multiple hull and deck openings, the in-boom furling of the world’s largest flat-top mainsail built in 3Di RAW and the innovation of massive fully retractable forward-facing propulsion drives, won the day.”

Note the clean hydrodynamic hull with retractable electric drive propulsion units retracted.  A video of the folding out process can be found at this website: discover > innovation > 1. sustainabilty [ link ]

Eco Award: “Sarissa presents a multi-faceted approach to cruising with minimal environmental impact, from wind-driven propulsion, hydrogenerators and waste heat recovery to black and grey water treatment and trash management. Most of her power and propulsion needs are met with just one variable-speed genset and a 380kWh battery bank that can deliver four to eight hours of stored energy. Batteries charge via the propellers underway or when freewheeling during sailing. All rigging and spars and the mainsheet are airfoil sections, reducing drag. A Piranha Biological Marine Sanitation Device produces effluent cleaner than MARPOL standards and assures all cleaning and bathroom products are 100 per cent biodegradable and non-toxic. To minimise the waste produced, the galley is equipped with a food digester that uses biological enzymes to break down and digest up to 10 kilograms of food waste daily, a compactor for plastics and cardboard and a glass crusher for bottles and jars.” Lean more? Link

Innovation of the Year: Forward-facing, retractable electric propulsion: “Royal Huisman boldly chose to install the first Hydrosta forward-facing retractable electric azipod propulsion for reasons of redundancy, efficiency and improved performance under sail on board Sarissa. Opening doors allows the propulsion legs to swing down from inside the hull, and the doors re-close to create a smooth underwater profile. These 500kW units rotate through 90 degrees, replacing the need for a stern thruster, which saves weight and noise. Being electric drives and located along with their battery stack forward under machinery and watersports stowage, the system removes noise from the guest areas, plus the yacht can be away from a dock or mooring without starting an engine. The pulling, fixed-pitch propellers linked to permanent magnet motors act like underwater turbines, charging the batteries and providing carbon-free power to the ship’s systems, reducing demand on the Volvo gensets.” Curious?

It is not easy to be objective about the quality of your own work. Organizations such as the International Superyacht Society Awards and their expert, independent juries help to provide an unbiased measure of achievement. Overview of awards for Royal Huisman in recent years : link

Clean and crisp furniture styling is used in conjuncture with natural woods and a simple palette to create a very modern and clean look whilst maintaining warmth and character. Crisp detailing is achieved through the use of thin edges. Chamfers are used to maintain the strength of the design whilst creating thin surfaces that give a sharp and modern look to the furniture. This detailing theme extends from the main furniture, to the bulkheads, through to the door handles and light switches. The sharp detailing contrasts with hidden softness found in the wooden insets of the handrail and door handles.

60m Royal Huisman sailing yacht Sarissa begins sea trials

The 59.7-metre sailing yacht Sarissa has left the Royal Huisman yard to begin sea trials in the North Sea. Also known as Project 404, the project has been kept tightly under wraps since it was first announced in January 2019. 

Design on the custom build comes from Malcolm McKeon and Christian Liaigre .

The high-performance sloop had her hull turned in September 2020 at the shipyard's headquarters in Vollenhove with her owners present.  She hit the water earlier in 2023 and had her masts stepped shortly after.

Project 404 was constructed in Alustar aluminium with a reverse bow and flush deck. Other details revealed during the turning of the hull include a large transom opening giving access to a beach club, a lazarette amidships and oversized portholes.

Sarissa features a low-profile carbon composite superstructure with an integrated sloop rig package from Southern Spars complemented by Rondal captive winches. Designed with the race circuit in mind, the yacht will also feature a lifting keel, retractable propulsion and twin carbon rudders to maximise performance.

Modern technology will be at the forefront of this new build with Royal Huisman promising to leave “no technological stone unturned” in the pursuit of “a sleek and powerful sailing yacht of iconic, imaginative design which will marry unprecedented performance with luxurious and innovative amenities."

Accommodation on board Project 404 is for 12 guests and 10 crew.

Other projects currently underway at Royal Huisman include the highly the 47-metre Nilaya , which was recently christened in Amsterdam.

Ready to set sail! Lachlan Murdoch's top secret $150million superyacht featuring an 'expansive, lavish beach club' finally takes shape five years after the media heir ordered it

By Aidan Wondracz For Daily Mail Australia

Published: 09:00 EDT, 2 April 2023 | Updated: 09:00 EDT, 2 April 2023

View comments

Lachlan Murdoch is one step closer to adding a new $150 million superyacht to his collection of luxury vessels. The News Corp heir is set to receive the superyacht after patiently waiting five years for it to be developed and finally constructed by Dutch company Royal Huisman. The superyacht has been shrouded in secrecy and was dubbed Project 404 and cost at least $150 million. Read the full story: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11903347/Lachlan-Murdoch-superyacht-150million-ship-ready-News-Corp-media-mogul-five-years.html?ito=msngallery

Lachlan Murdoch is one step closer to adding a new $150 million superyacht to his collection of luxury vessels. The News Corp heir is set to receive the superyacht after patiently waiting five years for it to be developed and finally constructed by Dutch company Royal Huisman. The superyacht has been shrouded in secrecy and was dubbed Project 404 and cost at least $150 million. Read the full story: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11903347/Lachlan-Murdoch-superyacht-150million-ship-ready-News-Corp-media-mogul-five-years.html?ito=msngallery

Mr Murdoch's lavish expenditure comes despite the media giant dealing with two massive lawsuits. The first is a $2.4 billion defamation lawsuit brought against Fox News Network and its parent company Fox Corp over its coverage of unfounded US vote rigging claims. The second is against Crikey where Lachlan claims a column falsely suggested he 'illegally conspired with Donald Trump to incite' the deadly January 2021 Capitol riot.
