Design & Construction
Designed around a displacement steel hull and a steel/aluminium superstructure she features a 12.8m beam and a 4.1m draft. The yacht is built over 4 decks with an internal volume of 1,864 GT (Gross Tonnes).
The yacht was designed and constructed in compliance with the Lloyds Register technical standards.
Exterior Design
Grand Ocean is an 80.15m (263ft) Blohm+Voss build with naval architecture by the yard and JF Platou, and a profile that leans toward function as much as form. The white hull and superstructure keep the look clean and uniform, while the raked bow adds a forward sense of purpose rather than flair. Long, straight lines run through the profile, broken by horizontal bands of glazing and practical deck cut-outs.
The foredeck has space for tenders and personal watercraft, along with the expected anchoring gear and handling equipment. A central stair links this area to the forward section of the main deck, so crew movement stays efficient and clear of guest areas.
Side decks run full length and remain well protected. Teak handrails soften the otherwise crisp white structure and add a tactile edge where it matters. The superstructure steps cleanly toward the aft, with open sections that give each deck its own defined use without over-complication.
Aft, the layout shifts toward guest use. The main deck aft forms a sheltered lounge space with fixed seating and soft cushions set into a timber surround. Twin curved staircases drop down to the lower deck and swim platform, so circulation between levels feels direct and unobstructed.
Interior Design
Much of the earlier decorative detail was stripped back, but the dark wood panelling remains and still defines the character. That contrast now drives the look. Clean surfaces and lighter finishes sit against rich timber, so the spaces feel calmer without losing depth.
In the main salon areas, large openings and a more neutral palette allow light to move more freely through the interior. Soft beige tones, pale carpets and low-profile furniture reduce visual weight, while the darker joinery frames the space rather than dominating it. The result is quieter and more usable day to day.
The dining room stays formal in layout but feels less heavy than before. A long mahogany table sits on a cream carpet, surrounded by French Empire-style chairs. Wood-panelled bulkheads remain, though they now act as a backdrop rather than the main feature. Overhead, an Art Deco chandelier adds a clear focal point without crowding the room. The space seats up to 18 guests.
Elsewhere, the mix continues. Some areas retain a more classic look with polished timber and traditional detailing, while others shift toward softer, modern forms. Curved sofas, simple tables and restrained finishes appear across the upper deck spaces, where larger windows open the rooms toward the sea.
A lift connects all decks, set within a wood-lined shaft with mirrored panels and brass detailing. It fits the overall language of the interior and allows easy movement through what is a large volume yacht at 1,855GT.
Accommodation
Grand Ocean accommodates up to 12 guests. The layout includes a main deck VIP suite and a range of guest cabins below, each built around the same mix of dark joinery and lighter finishes.
The VIP cabin on the main deck is generous in scale. It has a central double bed, lounge seating, and wide windows that bring in natural light. The surrounding joinery uses dark wood framing with lighter wall panels, so the space avoids feeling enclosed. The en suite bathroom is finished in white stone with gold-toned fittings, along with a separate dressing area. French Art Deco detailing appears in furniture and fittings, but the overall tone stays current due to simpler fabrics and cleaner lines. Storage is built in and kept flush where possible, which helps maintain clear floor space.
The owner’s suite is on the upper deck, including a private salon, a bedroom with direct access out to deck, a large dressing room, and a bathroom finished in marble with a freestanding tub and walk-in shower. The layout separates each function clearly, so the suite reads as a private apartment rather than a single cabin.
She is also capable of carrying up to 29 crew onboard to ensure a relaxed luxury yacht experience.
