Standing out from the crowd is quite difficult to do for a superyacht but ‘Pink Shadow‘ does that very well. This is an explorer yacht and a massive one at that being a 180-foot leviathan. With its owner, German billionaire Professor Hans Georg Nader offering it for charter, this intriguing explorer yacht can be yours although for a high price. That said, this is an explorer yacht that is designed to take you to the remotest of locations. While with its name, you would conjure up visions of a glitzy yacht, this is far from that notion being about form and function. Its design is inspired by the military and you cannot go wrong with its green paint scheme.

Yes, this is not pink and neither it is bestowed with fripperies although it has a stately aggression about its brooding demeanour. This superyacht is also an explorer with an intriguing combination of both. Hence, the design is a mix of both and looks striking with its green hull along with its movie star villain yacht-like appearance. Although as said earlier, there is a sense of functionality about the looks and we like the grey detailing too. This, when combined with the military green gives it a Bond Villain stealth yacht vibe. Speaking of which, the Pink Shadow is indeed inspired by the 1982 film Fitzcarraldo.
Inside though it is pure luxury and matches any luxury yacht with ease and comes with all the amenities. The design though is inspired by the jungle but has a distinct vibe to itself. There are two Jacuzzis, custom furniture, and Louis Vuitton travel trunks but your gaze shifts to the crocodile resting behind the shadow to the interesting wallpaper designs. While this may be too niche or overwhelming for most, it does seem interesting and stands out.
There are cigar lounges and plenty of open spaces decked with luxury in a kitsch but unique way. The sky lounge is also spectacular while this yacht can accommodate 12 guests across six suites. The Tender garage will house all the toys being replete with a large helipad. Being an explorer vessel it has a range of 5,000 nautical miles with a cruising speed of 11.5 knots. With an asking price of $545,000 sans further expenses per week, this is a lair for a Billionaire with eccentric taste along with the desire to travel beyond conventional boundaries.
