The 90.1-meter Lürssen superyacht Ice has collided with the 31.1-meter Numarine yacht A.Mey in Yalıkavak, Turkey.
Dramatic footage of the incident shows Ice’s bow striking A.Mey with enough force to spin the yacht around. The extent of the damage is still unclear, but A.Mey’s stern appears to be severely affected. The yacht was anchored at the time of the collision.
Ice was delivered by the German shipyard in 2005, designed by Tim Heywood. According to BOATPro, she was most recently listed for sale in 2023. Her last known asking price of €100,000,000 made her one of the most expensive yachts on the market at that time, featuring highlights such as a large helipad and five bathtubs carved from solid limestone. She won the Motor Yacht of the Year award at the 2006 World Superyacht Awards.
A.Mey, delivered in 2007, is part of Numarine’s 102 RPH series, with exterior design attributed to Tommaso Spadolini.
The cause of the incident remains unknown. BOAT International will provide updates as the story unfolds.
