The milestone event saw the colossal yacht floated in the main dock at the Amels shipyard in Vlissingen City, signaling the start of her final and most intricate outfitting stage.

The launch is a pivotal moment in a build process that spans multiple countries and requires immense logistical precision. Project Tanzanite is not just a vessel; it is a statement of capability and a testament to the enduring strength of the large superyacht market. With an imposing internal volume of 6,083 GT, her scale is difficult to overstate, placing her firmly in the upper echelon of the global superyacht fleet.
