$250M superyacht Liva O draws 'big' attention on Seattle's Lake Union

SEATTLE - The superyacht LIVA O, owned by billionaire Stephen Orenstein , has made a notable appearance on Seattle's Lake Union . 

Measuring 387 feet, LIVA O is the largest superyacht ever built by the esteemed German shipbuilder Abeking & Rasmussen . For comparison, a Washington state Olympic Class ferry measures 362 feet.

Launched as the shipyard's latest masterpiece, LIVA O represents a significant achievement for Abeking & Rasmussen, which has been in operation for over 115 years. "We have once again succeeded in building an exceptional yacht," said Matthias Hellmann, CEO at Abeking & Rasmussen. "By upholding our values of innovation, quality, and client satisfaction, we have created a yacht that sets new industry standards."

Designed by Joseph Dirand Architecture in Paris, the yacht features a sleek black hull and offers luxurious amenities, including a Neptune Lounge with an underwater view, a swimming pool, a helicopter pad and a crow’s nest. The vessel also employs a diesel-electric propulsion system for quiet navigation and maneuvering. 

So how much does a yacht of this size cost? According to Superyacht Fan , Orenstein bought the yacht in 2023 for $250 million and estimates its annual running cost to be $15 to $25 million. 

According to Forbes , Stephen Orenstein is a German-American business executive with extensive commercial real estate holdings in Germany, Italy, the U.K. and the U.S., and holds a stake in the German soccer team Eintracht Frankfurt. 

Formerly owning 75% of Supreme Group, a logistics firm that supplied food and water to the U.S. Army in Afghanistan, Orenstein took over the company in 1985 after his father's death. 

Forbes estimates his net worth at $2 billion. 

The yacht's presence in Lake Union is drawing attention from locals and yacht enthusiasts alike, marking a significant milestone in Seattle's maritime scene.

NYBA Boats Afloat Show

The Best Boat Show on Earth.

The Boats Afloat Show is presented by the Northwest Yacht Brokers Association and recognized as the largest floating boat show in the Pacific Northwest.

This must-attend show offers a wide variety of boats in one exquisite location – powerboats, sailboats, day boats, long range cruising yachts – and much more! Guests also enjoy a full line-up of curated events while charting their next adventure: live music, delicious beverages and fun activities for the whole family.

Organized by the Northwest Yacht Brokers Association since 1978, you’ll discover a world-class fleet of boats and experience the latest innovations in boating technology with industry professionals who are ready to help you create your next adventure.

The Boats Afloat Show Returns, September 12th – 15th, 2024!

The Pacific Northwest’s largest floating boat show first landed in Seattle in 1978. Since then, guests have come to expect a world-class fleet of power and sailing yachts thoughtfully selected for all budgets and visions.

The fleet is presented by yacht brokers and dealers from the Northwestern U.S. and Western Canada, and features a wide assortment of marine products and services to help first-time and veteran boaters enjoy the water. The Boats Afloat Show is a long-standing favorite among boaters across the U.S. and Canada.

For decades, the NYBA produced two leading boat shows during the year- a 10-day show and a four-day show. Beginning in 2022, the NYBA has changed course and now offers two four-day shows in April and September.

Proceeds from NYBA-produced boat shows go back to the boating industry in Washington State through NYBA programs. Whether exhibiting or attending a Boats Afloat Show, your support of these shows helps make boating better in the Pacific Northwest.
