ABEKING & RASMUSSEN is proud to announce the successful completion and redelivery of the prestigious 73-meter, 240 ft Lürssen yacht which has been renamed STARFIRE.
This iconic vessel has undergone a comprehensive and transformative refit, enhancing its aesthetic appeal, functionality, and overall luxury. The project included a significant extension of the stern, creation of a new glass and air-conditioned gym and other exterior and interior refurbishments, as well as numerous technical upgrades.
The extensive refit of STARFIRE has been a collaborative effort between the owner’s captain and crew, Arrow Yachts, ABEKING & RASMUSSEN, Pascoli International for the exterior design, Patrick Knowles Design for the interior transformation, and Murray & Associates for the stern extension design. The result is a beautifully reimagined vessel that blends timeless elegance with current state of the art luxury.
“We are thrilled to announce the successful completion of STARFIRE,” said Hannes Köhler, Project Manager. “This transformation has not only given the yacht a strikingly modern look, especially with its bold new color scheme and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, but also reflects the outstanding teamwork and seamless collaboration between all involved parties.
Together, we have turned the vision for this iconic yacht into a reality.” One of the most noticeable changes is the yacht’s stunning new paint job, which features a bold design shift, giving the vessel a sleek, modern aesthetic that enhances its visual appeal.
This is complemented by the 3-meter stern extension which provides additional space for relaxation, enjoyment of water sports and dining at the water line. The sun deck has been completely transformed into a fully equipped gym, offering an indulgent wellness experience.
Featuring a sauna, cold-plunge pool and massage area, this new space allows guests to maintain their fitness and well-being while at sea. The interior spaces across all decks were also given a comprehensive renovation, resulting in a refreshed, modern and luxurious atmosphere. In addition, new floor-to-ceiling windows were installed on both the main and upper decks, flooding the interiors with natural light and offering stunning panoramic views of the surrounding sea.
Finally, several onboard systems were upgraded and serviced to ensure optimal performance for years to come.
The 12-month project has been completed with meticulous attention to detail and the highest standards of craftsmanship. STARFIRE is now ready to offer its owner an unparalleled luxury experience.
ABEKING & RASMUSSEN is proud to have been the trusted partner in this monumental transformation and looks forward to continuing its legacy of excellence in the world of luxury yacht refits.
