Drawing inspiration from the rugged beauty and untamed wilderness of Northern Norway, this remarkable vessel embodies our philosophy of safely exploring uncharted waters with uncompromising luxury and cutting-edge innovation.
Expert Solutions to Unique Needs define every aspect of Aurora Borealis's revolutionary design. The yacht's signature feature, a swimming pool with retractable glass floor positioned directly above a dual helicopter hangar, exemplifies the kind of innovative yacht concept design that transforms the impossible into reality. When aircraft operations commence, guests witness the spectacle from above through the transparent pool floor, creating an unforgettable fusion of luxury and adventure.
Comprehensive Services extend throughout this 122-meter masterpiece, accommodating up to 20 guests across ten meticulously appointed cabins, including eight 100m² VIP suites and a magnificent 400m² owner's sanctuary featuring 180-degree panoramic views. The owner's domain encompasses private outdoor jacuzzi, sun lounge, spa, gym, office, library, and wine cellar, truly the ultimate luxury getaway experience.

This tailored consultation approach to eco-conscious engineering delivers an impressive 8,000 nautical mile range while maintaining our commitment to sustainable luxury.
Aurora Borealis transforms into an open outdoor adventure platform through retractable balconies, four fold-out hull gates for seamless tender launches, and an extraordinary alpine ski slope system.
