At 95.2m/312'4", iconic charter yacht Whisper features a compelling line-up of living areas and modern amenities and abounds in luxury and comfort

Built in 2014 by Lurssen, the 312.34ft/95.2m Custom motor yacht ‘WHISPER’ ex Kismet features an interior designed by Reymond Langton Design and an exterior styled by Espen Oeino.

Bringing together a team composed of award winners, superyacht WHISPER is unquestionably the realisation of both luxury and uncompromised perfection. Timeless whilst still lightyears ahead of her time, WHISPER couples astounding technical quality with innovative design work.

Exterior Design

Featuring the pioneering styling of the acclaimed Espen Oeino, the exterior of superyacht WHISPER has been gracefully shaped in order to meet the owner’s brief for a yacht which would be an unrivalled charter choice and a premier entertainer. Built with a steel hull and aluminum superstructure, she is sleek, and replete with all of the amenities necessary for satisfying the modern charterer. One such conversation point regarding her exterior is the mosaic tiled pool with an inset Jacuzzi on the upper foredeck. Due to its position, this Jacuzzi affords guests the perfect observation platform from which to overlook the sea and coastlines whilst underway or at-anchor. For those who prefer to remain dry whilst taking in the sights, four Stidd chairs have been strategically placed around the Jacuzzi in order to provide the same scope without obstructing the view of those taking a soak. To get even higher to secure an unparalleled photo opportunity, a winding staircase a short distance away provides access to a dedicated observation deck which can be enjoyed throughout the day. Bearing a walkaround layout, the team at Espen Oeino have recessed all of the storage compartments to allow for an undisrupted flow when navigating the various outdoor spaces of WHISPER- a decision which likewise provides the perfect excuse for taking an evening stroll to coincide with the sunset. Another uniquely impressive addition to the exterior is the secondary helipad on the foredeck which nicely doubles up as a basketball court, whilst the helipad on the bridge deck is easily converted into an exceptionally relaxed outdoor lounging area. Keen to keep guests entertained at night as well as by day, a fire pit with an integrated waterfall has been installed on the aft deck to provide just the right amount of heat for guests who want to enjoy their meals al freso at the dining table just a short distance away. Of course, it goes without saying that the four foot black jaguar resting on the bowsprit of superyacht WHISPER is very much the finishing touch to such a superbly arranged exterior.

Interior Design

Asked to create a compelling and distinct interior based on a ‘Champagne & Caviar’ theme, Reymond Langton Design have arranged both the social and private spaces to remain suitable whether guests are throwing a glamorous party or simply relaxing over a few drinks. Similar to the innovation found outdoors, the interior of superyacht WHISPER features a double-height main salon which spans the main and upper deck aft. Reached via a sweeping staircase, this area is infused with a colour scheme and architecture reminiscent of the Art Deco movement. Indeed, the juxtaposition of blacks and golds creates a strikingly luxurious ambience which is perfect for indulging both after-hours champagne and morning coffee. Nicely flexible, guests can have jazz tunes coming from the grand piano if they’re entertaining, or light one of the two fireplaces if it’s a more cozy vibe they’re after. The skylounge, meanwhile, exudes a more casual atmosphere thanks to its beach house style decor. Yet, with a large sports bar that opens out across the vast deck aft, the space easily transforms into a disco nightclub.

Guest Accommodation

A veritable masterpiece, the owner’s suite of superyacht WHISPER occupies the forward half of the upper deck. Featuring his and hers bathing rooms, room-size wardrobes, and even a private Jacuzzi, this suite comes with a personal office for attending to any necessary business whilst away on vacation. The two generously sized VIP suites on the main deck reflect the Art Nouveau influences which can be traced in the interior social spaces, whilst the remaining staterooms adopt Art Deco and Japanese themes to provide a stunning array of sleeping options. Ultimately, whichever room guests find themselves resting in on-board WHISPER, they can be assured that they’ll be doing so in total style.

Onboard Comfort & Entertainment

As well as providing a cinema screen on the foredeck, a party-friendly and spacious main salon, and a wealth of lounging spots on her exterior, WHISPER also offers a range of  possibilities for enjoying some activities. Storing her impressive range of tenders and toys in a garage which doubles up as a spot for some waterside aerobics and yoga, superyacht WHISPER is also fully prepared for the more adventurous charter guests who are keen to get out on the water and in amongst the action.

Special Features

Designed in conjunction with a sports loving owner, WHISPER features a dedicated club room which can also be converted into a comfortably sized cinema. What’s more, the staircase leading into the main salon is flanked by two full-height video walls which mean guests can enjoy some drinks and company whilst keeping up the game. With an eye for greener alternatives to standard engineering, superyacht WHISPER features an innovative ‘closed loop system’ which allows the pool, Jacuzzi, and other sources of water to be heated via her exhaust- yet further evidence that she is a yacht at the forefront of design.

Located on the lower deck, a fully dedicated spa area features both a beauty salon and gymnasium to take care of guests whilst they’re away on vacation. Consistent with the intricate design work found elsewhere on-board, this space boasts hand-crafted and commissioned artwork, tailored furnishings, and incredibly soothing textures to create an effortlessly relaxed ambience.

Performance & Range

As a custom displacement yacht, WHISPER also features ‘at anchor stabilisers’ which work at zero speed, increasing onboard comfort at anchor and on rough waters. With a cruising speed of 14 knots, a maximum speed of 17 knots, and a range of 6,000nm from her 220,000 fuel tanks, she effortlessly marries performance with luxury.

When not cruising Whisper has onboard an incredible selection of water toys and accessories for you and your guests to connect with the waters around you. You'll be loving the huge adrenaline rush as you zip over the water on one of the three Yamaha WaveRunners. Another excellent feature are towable toys offering fun and adventure. Additionally, there are waterskis that are hugely entertaining whether you are a beginner or a seasoned pro. If that isn't enough Whisper also features a seabob, wakeboards, kayaks, fishing equipment, scuba diving equipment and much more. When it comes to Tenders, Whisper has you covered - with three tenders, including a 10m/32'10" Hinckley Limo Tender.

Launched in 2014, motor yacht WHISPER (Kismet, Project GLOBAL) is an outstanding and elegant 95-metre vessel, built with utmost attention to detail by the prominent German manufacturer, Lurssen. The mega yacht boasts harmonious lines, designed by the world-renowned and well-respected designer, Espen Oeino, while her opulent and striking interior design was created by equally respected Reymond Langton studio. Kismet accommodates 12 guests in 7 cabins.

WHISPER'S NOTABLE FEATURES: ~ Owner’s Private Deck ~ Main deck piano lounge ~ Fireplaces ~ Cinema Room/Sports Bar ~ Comprehensive Beauty Spa ~ Sauna ~ Fully Equipped Gymnasium ~ Jacuzzi and Pool ~ Helicopter Pads ~ Basketball Court ~ DJ Station ~ Barbecue ~ Fabulous Indoor/Outdoor Dining Areas

She was constructed as a replacement vessel for her Owner’s previous award-winning 68-metre Kismet. When launched in 2014, she was well ahead of her time when it came to her engineering, while ensuring her excellent entertainment capacities and ultra-luxurious amenities for her owner, family and guests.

In 2015, she was awarded the best “Motor Yacht of above 75 metres LOA” at the prestigious World Superyacht Awards, further underlining her exceptional design, naval architecture and overall workmanship by all involved.

Thanks to her awe-inspiring dimensions and carefully designed layout, KISMET offers amazing spaces for entertainment and relaxation, both on the inside as well as around her exterior decks. The various deck facilities include an open fireplace, several lounging and dining areas on three different decks, comprising one with a fully equipped BBQ, an oval-shaped swimming pool with integrated Jacuzzi on the sun deck, as well as a very private observation deck overlooking it all.

Perhaps the most notable deck area aboard is the fabulous sun deck. This area has been designed with a large dining table for al fresco dinners or lunches, placed close to the barbecue. The entire area can be protected with screens against sea breeze or for additional privacy. Forward of this area is the massive oval pool with a Jacuzzi further forward.

A private observation deck and sunbathing area offer privacy and tranquillity to escape the rest of the yacht; a perfect place to read a book or enjoy the changing horizons. In the evening this area transforms into an entertainment spot with a DJ station and plenty of lounging/seating possibilities.

The interiors are modern and rich, inspired by the Art Deco era, boasting beautiful lighting works, and plenty of artwork. Custom-made furniture pieces are placed throughout the entire vessel, offering not only a pleasing visual experience but also exceptional comfort for guests on board. Great attention was paid to every single detail on board providing guests with ultimate luxury and a sense of grandeur.

One of the most notable features on the interior is the spectacular main deck piano lounge with a double-height ceiling, sweeping stairwell and huge light walls. The elegant formal dining room is another spectacular area that offers seating for all guests on board and boasts a fire place to add to the warm and elegant overall ambiance.

Some elements of the external design such as the stainless steel air inlets at the rear of the funnels were inspired by the Chicago skyline.

Espen Oeino says “We tried to capture and combine elegance in the longitudinal plane with more aggressive edgy lines in the transverse plane, also playing with the colour scheme by using the hull colour on parts of the superstructure." Exceptional features include a lockable private observation platform with a ‘star bed’, overlooking the Sun Deck. This deck has a swimming pool with an integrated Jacuzzi forward whose aft-end forms the skylight of the lift shaft, all tied together in a waterfall arrangement.

Following a great workout session in the fully-equipped gymnasium, guests can relax and indulge in the private wellness spa, with an ice fountain, a sauna, massage facilities or a hairdressing room. There is also a helicopter pad on the bridge deck, which transforms into a massive guest area with occasional furniture and sun awnings. This is a fantastic place to entertain large groups, be it family gatherings or corporate events. In addition, it can be transformed into an amazing outdoor cinema under the starry skyline. At-anchor and underway stabilisers offer guests even more comfort. The yacht is serviced by a carefully chosen and highly-trained crew of 28 that includes a masseuse, a beautician, a hair stylist and a yoga teacher.

Made of steel and aluminium, she can achieve a top speed of 17 knots and a cruising speed of 12 knots. Lloyd's registered and MCA compliant, she boasts an impressive beam of 13,8m (45'3'').

A Little More About The Builder:

During the summer of 1875, the 24-year-old boat builder Friedrich Lürssen laid the foundation stone for the family-run company, which is today among the world’s leading luxury yacht manufacturers. It has more than 1,000 highly qualified staff at its Bremen site and is among Europe’s most renowned systems and equipment traders for new naval ship construction. Over the years, Lürssen has manufactured more than 13,000 boats and ships – all at Bremen shipyards or their North German sister shipyards within the group.

“The history of the shipyard is still closely linked to our own family history and that of many of our staff. The family and staff’s genuine identification with the shipyard business and an informal company structure with tight employee loyalty have always been supporting pillars of our success. In addition to technical expertise and practical skills, high levels of flexibility and strength of innovation among our workforce have been the decisive drivers of growth in our shipyard business as a speciality supplier of high-technology ship construction since the beginning.” - Friedrich Lürssen, who manages the North Bremen company with his cousin Peter Lürssen.

Yacht Accommodation

Accommodation is provided for up to twelve guests. The owner’s deck includes a breathtaking master stateroom with its private external deck, which is fully equipped, including a private Jacuzzi and a TV. This private foredeck area can also be transformed into a demi-basketball court with nets erected to keep the ball inboard. It can also serve as a second touch-and-go heli pad or another dining area. The icon of the mega yacht, a 6ft tall and 15ft long Jaguar, is placed forward and represents the owner’s sporting interests, the Jacksonville Jaguars. This custom-made stainless steel sculpture can be removed when needed. Three twin cabins that are convertible into doubles are located on the main deck together with additional two VIP suites with a more Art Nouveau theme. The lower deck includes an additional occasional guest cabin, as well as the wellness area. All staterooms offer ultimate luxury, featuring the best in materials and amenities, as well as impeccably executed made-to-measure furniture and other Art Deco and Art Nouveau design features.

Quick Enquiry

"I once had a client who told me, “I will put your name on the side of my boat if it’s good, but if the boat is not good, your name will appear three times as big.” We were brought up with the sense that it is a very personal obligation for the family when we sign a contract to deliver a yacht that the client expects. I cannot go to a client and say “One of my guys made a mistake.” He would say “Is he Mr. Lürssen, or are you Mr. Lürssen?” But a successful delivery is also a great reward. I take the relationships of my clients very personally." - Peter Lürssen of Lürssen Yachts (courtesy SuperYachtTimes)

Whisper (formerly known as Kismet)

Feature focus: 6 stand-out details on board 95m Lürssen yacht Whisper

When a client commissions a "champagne and caviar superyacht", the result is likely to be a little indulgent – particularly when said client is billionaire businessman Shahid Khan . Add Espen Øino and Reymond Langton Design to the mix, and you have the award-winning   Whisper (formerly Kismet ), a glitzy, art-deco diva that was recently sold with a last known asking price of €149,000,000. 

Now under new ownership and priced at €1,200,000 per week with Y.CO , BOAT takes a closer look at this charter yacht 's design details...

The hi-tech, art deco saloon 

Spanning two decks and serviced by an intricately wrought staircase, Whisper 's main saloon has all the feel of a hotel foyer. Though there are few hotels with this kind of tech – her two video-art walls (made up of 42 individual, 140-centimetre monitors) are linked to a pair of cameras which, mounted outside, can convert the walls into virtual windows. On the main deck, an LED-lit bar sits across from an electronic piano, built into a mirror-buffed table by liquid metal specialists Based Upon. The real crowd-pleaser, however, is the Crystal Caviar chandelier, a Chihuly-style cascade that weighs a staggering 350kg.

The lucky jaguar

As the owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars, Khan commissioned this four-metre statue to grace the bowsprit on game days – one paw resting on an American football helmet, the other in the air. But what wows most about this bespoke feature is how it was made. 3D-printing specialist Materialise is behind the silver feline, which was crafted in a single piece comprising more than 5,000 layers (and measuring 0.5 millimetres each). Each layer is a liquid polymer that hardens when hit by a laser beam. With a lumen rating of 10,260, the protective metallic coating is about four times brighter than a 150-watt lightbulb. The jaguar statue will be replicated on Khan's new yacht, the 122-metre Project Jag . 

The individually-styled cabins

Whisper has the same number of decks and cabins as Khan's previous Lürssen, the 74-metre Kismet (now Global ). With 20-odd metres to play with, the rooms are wider, multi-windowed and in prime position on the main deck. Each cabin is also individually designed, touting a separate colour scheme and door emblem. Whisper features a fairly unusual accommodation called a "sea cabin" – placed on the lower deck on the portside amidships, motion will be at a minimum for guests who suffer from seasickness. 

The "subterranean" spa

Placed deep within the ship, Whisper 's Persian-inspired spa benefits from little motion and a darker, moodier ambience – creating what Pascal Reymond calls a "naturally [...] meditative space". Her lengthy list of services include a hammam, cold plunge pool, steam shower, massage room, separate hair and beauty salon and dedicated onboard hairdresser. Hidden access also prevents crew and visiting therapists from disrupting owner areas.

The multi-levelled pool

Oval-shaped and mosaic-tiled, this 12-metre superyacht swimming pool has an integrated Jacuzzi that, being slightly raised, doubles as an observation deck. Including the two separate spa pools (one in the master cabin and the other in the spa), Whisper uses 15 tonnes of water – all warmed by a waste-heat recovery system from the gensets. A similar system would be replicated by the shipyard in 2019 with the 95-metre Madsummer .

The private "star bed"

Allegedly one of Espen Øino's favourite spots, this private observation platform has an outdoor bed created for stargazing (but works just as well for sunbathing). It's accessible via a spiral staircase on the sundeck and, forward-facing, overlooks the pool from five decks up. It can be locked off to other guests and crew for extra privacy.

Whisper was sold earlier in 2023 with Cecil Wright & Partners and Christie Yachts .

The new Whisper Yachts from Symphony Marine: spacious, silent and eco-friendly

Minimal Logo

Just say the name aloud and you can imagine yourself out on the open sea aboard these wonderful boats, surrounded by the wind of freedom and, above all, by the pleasure of silence that only an electric motor can give, combined with the even more important pleasure of not polluting. Whisper Yachts is the new range of luxury catamarans launched by Symphony Marine, which, following the new trends in zero environmental impact boating, has decided to equip its crafts with solar-powered electric motors.

whisper-yachts-night-lighting

Generally speaking, all the Whisper Yachts models are striking for the size of their spaces, which have been carefully designed to give the impression that they are l arger than they actually are. This can also be seen in the flybridge, which is equipped with sun loungers and sofas, as well as in the bow lounge and the cockpit lounge. The cockpit lounge can be accessed from the platform by descending a large staircase that crosses the entire width of the boat, allowing the guests to dive into the sea or simply lie out in the sun, staying very close to the water. Last but not least, the master cabin, with its island bed mounted crosswise, is also a very bright, spacious and comfortable space.

In terms of technical features, the propulsion and power management are based on a Torqeedo Deep Blue system. The two shaft motors of 100 kW each are powered by BMW 200 kWh batteries, with the possibility of temporarily increasing power to 2×120 kW so that the boat can reach a cruising speed of 18 knots for a maximum of one hour. Completing the work are 30 square metres of solar panels capable of producing 6 kWp, a 13.2 kW shore power connection and a 25 kW generator: according to the manufacturer’s declarations, the boat can cruise at a speed of 5/6 knots for an unlimited period of time, or at 8/9 knots for five consecutive hours without any polluting emissions, or even at 9/10 knots for ten consecutive hours with the help of the generator.

Whisper Yachts’ first 50-foot model has already been developed and is ready for delivery in the 2023 season. As the company’s presentation states, “Whisper-Yachts is aimed at yachtsmen looking for a yacht with the same luxurious finish as the most prestigious motor yacht manufacturers, while offering much more space, stability and range than a traditional monohull”. Thanks to the silent electric power supply, cruising will be like a breath of wind.

‘CHAMPAGNE & CAVIAR’ YACHT 

IMAGE GALLERY

SPECIFICATIONS

Kismet_June23-189

YACHT CONCEPT

We bet you'll ask why champagne and caviar. It is not about the dishes served on board, but about the serial yachts owner's aesthetic desire to realize her in a topic of these precious items. Which was achieved by the visionary | Espen Oeino  | in exterior using a champagne-coloured hull and jet-black mast and by well-known design duo | Pascale Reymond | and | Andrew Langton | in a countless number of interior elements.

     Rated one of the top 100 largest yachts in the world the multi-award winning   5-deck WHISPER* (ex KISMET**) was built to the highest standards of quality and scale by the German shipyard ' Lurssen ' for Shahid Khan***, an experienced yacht owner, Pakistani-born American billionaire and owner of 2 football teams on both sides of the Atlantic. Doesn’t do things in half-measures, he set out to build a charter mega-yacht for himself and his guests that would be the epitome of luxury and uncompromised perfection.

** Kismet (in Islam) the arbitrary will of Allah; divinely ordained fate.

*** Currently ex-owner of the yacht.

OUTSIDE SPACE

Featuring the pioneering styling of the acclaimed Espen Oeino, the WHISPER's exterior has been gracefully shaped in order to meet the owner’s brief for a yacht which would be an unrivalled charter choice and a premier entertainer. Built with a steel hull and aluminum superstructure, she is sleek, and replete with all of the amenities necessary for satisfying the modern charterer. (Owner has certainly made an example of himself) .

     One such conversation point regarding her exterior is the mosaic tiled pool with an inset Jacuzzi on the upper foredeck. Due to its position, this Jacuzzi affords guests the perfect observation platform from which to overlook the sea and coastlines whilst underway or at-anchor. For those who prefer to remain dry whilst taking in the sights, four Stidd chairs have been strategically placed around the Jacuzzi in order to provide the same scope without obstructing the view of those taking a soak.

To get even higher to secure an unparalleled photo opportunity, a winding staircase a short distance away provides access to a dedicated observation deck which can be enjoyed throughout the day.

Kismet_016

Keen to keep guests entertained at night as well as by day, a fire pit with an integrated waterfall has been installed on the aft deck to provide just the right amount of heat for guests who want to enjoy their meals al freso at the dining table just a short distance away. (Fire pit also converts into a cocktail table.)

     Bearing a walkaround layout, the team at Espen Oeino have recessed all of the storage compartments to allow for an undisrupted flow when navigating the various outdoor spaces of WHISPER - a decision which likewise provides the perfect excuse for taking an evening stroll to coincide with the sunset.

     Another uniquely impressive addition to the exterior is the secondary helipad on the foredeck which nicely doubles up as a basketball court, whilst the helipad on the bridge deck is easily converted into an exceptionally relaxed outdoor lounging area.

Asked to create a compelling and distinct interior based on a ‘Champagne & Caviar’ theme, Reymond Langton Design was inspired by the image of an ornate gentleman’s club in a style of a far-out luxe and arranged both the social and private spaces to remain suitable whether guests are throwing a glamorous party or simply relaxing over a few drinks.

     The WHISPER interior, flowing seamlessly from the exterior through the marbled and metallic walled foyer, is every bit as innovative as that one. The heart of the yacht, the grand atrium, occupies 2 decks in height (main and upper), connected by a wide ornate Art Deco central staircase and framed by two video walls of 42 monitors of 140 cm each, full height for admiring paintings by artists or watching sports matches. The juxtaposition of blacks and golds, gold-leaf finishes and backlit onyx creates a strikingly luxurious ambience. 

     When you ascend the stairs to the upper deck to appreciate the main salon from above, you're in for a wow surprise in the form of an etched glass catwalk floor which leads you to the formal dining room and luxurious lounge.

Kismet_June23-52

The centerpiece of the piano lounge is of course the metallic piano and the champagne-colored 350kg Crystal Caviar chandelier above. Piano was custom crafted by Based Upon of London, chosen for their personal commissioning of functional art. Although it looks like a sailboat hull, the keyboard may be used in either musician mode or selfie and can be heard on 2 decks.

Kismet_June23-72

The main deck lounge, with its Art Deco ceiling, fireplace, infinitely cozy upholstered furniture and gentleman's club feel, easily and effortlessly transforms into a luxurious movie theater. 

     When entertaining guests, the climate-controlled winter garden with sliding glass panels is the hub of sociability. Both heated and air-conditioned, the area suits the yacht’s cruising itinerary of the Caribbean in winter and the Mediterranean in summer.

     The skylounge, meanwhile, exudes a more casual atmosphere thanks to its beach house style decor. Yet, with a large sports bar that opens out across the vast deck aft, the space easily transforms into a disco nightclub. 

GUEST ACCOMMODATION

7 luxurious cabins for up to 14 guests are a masterpiece of design by British Reymond Langton Design. The owner's intention was to impress his privileged guests with style, luxury and attention, and he has certainly succeeded. 

     Each guest stateroom and/or bathroom has an individual motif. Here you will find Oriental glamor and Japanese laconism, as well as Art Deco and Art Nouveau. The diversity of exotic and unique materials utilized for interior decor is beyond comprehension.

Kismet_June23-120

The master suite taking up most of the forward half of the upper deck includes the owner’s office with full ensuite bath, owner’s boudoir, owner’s lobby, His and Her separate bathing rooms with marble and onyx & room-size dressing rooms (mistress has a king-size Jacuzzi bathtub, which he does not), the owners’ full sweep stateroom with king-size bed and sliding hatch above for stargazing, 90º panoramic views and its own entire forward deck with private Jacuzzi and lounge beds. 

     For convenience and, again, privacy of the owner/charterer, the master suite has its own access to a helipad that doubles as a basketball court (which is only natural, given the former owner's line of work)* .  Privacy gates on the sidedecks proffer exterior access sequestration. From the master suite there is a hall leading to maim hall with winding staircase and elevator, and from there to the previously announced formal dining room with fireplace.

One deck below, on the main deck there are 5 cabins: 2 mirrored VIP suites with king-size beds, 1 guest suite with king-size bed, and 2 twin cabins that can be converted into 4-bed cabins, offering flexibility for families or charter parties. 2 twin cabins have been designed with the same attention to detail and luxury as the master suite.  

     The layout in the 5 guest rooms is similar in that at the foot of the bed is a writing desk with hidden TV above; each has a window floating lounge chair, and exotic materials including wall coverings of shagreen (sting ray skin), leather, metallic, inlays, and genuine suede for headliners.

Kismet_June23-89

WHISPER has an unusual feature called a 'Sea cabin', a large and elegantly appointed, as in copper ceiling with tobacco leaf inlay, carefully placed on the lower deck on portside amidships, where motion will be at a minimum for guests who suffer from seasickness.  

     In addition to this, WHISPER offers separate crew quarters for up to 26 ensuring an excellent crew to guest ratio for the highest standards of service.

The foyers, halls and staircases between the guest areas are worthy of special mention. Panels on the walls made of fabric, suede and smooth leather, expensive woods, glass and metal inlaid with intricate images; glass and marble floors; flying steps of stairs with elegant metal details on the railings is a theme repeated in other decorative applications - create a fantastic feeling of a showman's palace, and a transparent elevator of glass and steel connecting all decks only emphasizes the grandiosity of this colossus on the water. 

Kismet_June23-121

SPORT & BEAUTY

The lower deck deserves a separate description, as it is in charge of the sports component of the WHISPER. 

     Designers found a way to make working out an appealing if not enticing activity. The sea terrace is a fold down platform from the lower deck foyer and entry and extends for waterfront views while treading the mill. The pocket doors allow for fresh air and redefine water exercises. ( When returned to its vertical position, outside light and views are still provided through windows) .    

     The spa is certainly amazing, not only in its appearance but also in its location. Unlike all superyachts, this one is located in the heart of the lower deck and is finished in dark stone with black and gold mosaics to create an intimate, cozy but slightly mysterious atmosphere. It has a hammam, a spa bath, a cold plunge pool, a steam shower and a massage room with an onboard spa therapist. 

     There is also a separate hair and beauty salon, with a dedicated onboard hairdresser. 

WATER ACTIVITIES

Without deviating from the owner's mission to make WHISPER the "ultimate" charter yacht, an experienced crew will offer you a wide range of outdoor activities. An impressive array of tenders, jet skis, seabobs, paddleboards and other water toys are stored in the garage, which also serves as a place for aerobics and yoga classes on the water.of  possibilities for enjoying some activities. Storing her impressive range of tenders and toys in a garage which doubles up as a spot for some waterside aerobics and yoga, superyacht WHISPER is also fully prepared for the more adventurous charter guests who are keen to get out on the water and in amongst the action.

PERFORMANCE & RANGE 

Built with a steel hull and aluminum superstructure, the displacement WHISPER offers unprecedented stability and stability while underway, enhanced by a high-tech stabilizer system. As for speed, powered by twin 2,720hp Caterpillar 3516-C diesel engines, the 2,928GT yacht can reach a top speed of 17 knots and a maximum range of 6,000 nautical miles at 12 knots.

ECO-FRIENDLY YACHT  

With an eye for greener alternatives to standard engineering, superyacht WHISPER features an innovative ‘closed loop system’ which allows the pool, Jacuzzi, and other sources of water to be heated via her exhaust- yet further evidence that she is a yacht at the forefront of design.

motor yacht whisper

The international, hand-picked crew of 27 and the captain are a match for the ship and you will be 100% satisfied with the service.

     There are eleven stewardesses aboard to tend to the interior serving and servicing needs of the occupants. Each stew is qualified to do double duty in the beautification areas on people as well as the yacht. The stews’ other talents include one each who is an aesthetician, manicurist, hair-stylist, masseuse, yoga teacher, pilates instructor… Double your pleasure, double your fun.

     So once on board, leave all your worries behind and give yourself up to the new WHISPER flow of time   and the reliable hands of its crew. 

Believe or not:    

WISPER ( as 'KISMET') starred as an actress in the 150 million project "Ghost Six" of the streaming service "Netflix", named the most expensive in its history. The directing chair was taken by Michael Bay, and the leading roles were performed by Ryan Reynolds and James Franco. In the center of the plot - a conscious billionaire, who faked his own death and started a new life to fight evil in the world. All members of the team he recruited are given numbers instead of names, and their goal becomes the overthrow of the dictator and the liberation of the people of the country of Turgistan.

       The movie was released in 2019 and now you have a unique opportunity to combine a blockbuster watching with the place of its action!

Radiators fail once more: Moscow suburbs residents appeal to Putin

R esidents across the Moscow suburbs are besieged by a heating problem, for which they plead direct intervention from President Vladimir Putin. These individuals have yet to experience any semblance of home heating since winter started due to a dwindling supply of heating oil. The issue, one largely avoided by local authority communication, has left residents desperate to the point of directly appealing to the president.

While plots have been uncovered to disrupt Ukraine's infrastructure for a second consecutive winter, thus depriving civilians of heating, it seems Russians are now mired in their crisis. Irony drips from the fact that those under Putin's leadership are looking to cause turmoil in Ukraine, yet at home, they face a similar predicament.

Many dwellings within the Moscow agglomeration are presently without heat. The capital's residents are desperate, directly appealing to President Putin due to a perceived lack of alternate avenues for assistance. The absence of suitable heating functionality since winter commenced pushes them towards desperation with no relief in sight.

This seems improbable, but in Russia, it appears that anything can happen.

It remains uncertain if Vladimir Putin is actively addressing the heating crisis. Some experts suggest that Russia's heating oil reserves are depleting, which negatively affects residents' quality of life. Plagued by cold radiators and plummeting winter temperatures, these citizens have directly addressed their pleas to their head of state.

This heating crisis is happening in Elektrostal, a town approximately 71 miles from Moscow.

Ironically, Russia has constantly aimed to destroy the Ukrainian infrastructure since war broke out, deliberately trying to leave Ukrainians without heating during the harsh winters, aiming to break their strong will. It's an irony they now struggle with a domestic heating crisis, particularly near Moscow, their largest and most pivotal city.

Desperate individuals are reaching out to Vladimir Putin. They question his knowledge of the heating infrastructure conditions in the Moscow suburbs and the dire situations residents face there. Sundown brings no relief from the harsh Russian winter and without heating, their houses turn cold. With elections nearing, more and more residents find themselves reaching out directly to their president.

"Since winter's start, we've been without heating. This has been a yearly occurrence for the past three years. Despite paying for heating, we don't have enough. We implore you, help us!" - these are the desperate pleas from the heavily dressed populace dealing with the Russian winter conditions.

Experts attribute the heating oil shortage to international sanctions and surging demands for diesel fuel, pivotal to military operations. Russia now grapples with a dearth of raw materials essential for boiler and heating plant operation. As supplies dwindle, houses grow cold with little hope of any immediate corrective intervention.

It would be adequate if the war ceased, residents were prioritized, and attention accorded to their welfare.
