Octopus is more than a yacht; she’s a floating base for limitless exploration. Commissioned by a tech visionary, Octopus rewrote the rules for explorer superyachts. Spanning 126 meters in length, her sheer scale and ability to roam the globe without limits are unmatched in the charter world – redefining what true exploration can be. Yet she never compromises guest comfort, featuring luxurious suites and lounges, and even a basketball court. Ideal for those craving epic discoveries – think tracking orcas in Norway or diving unknown reefs in the Coral Triangle – and wanting an ultra-luxe onboard lifestyle at the same time.

Her spacious interior accommodates up to 12 guests (plus supernumeraries) in 13 tastefully appointed cabins. Multiple decks offer everything from a gym and spa to a cinema and observation lounge with panoramic windows. An impressive toy chest extends well beyond standard watersports gear, with submersibles, multiple tenders (including a 20m support boat), and scientific equipment for exploration or research. Whether exploring the furthest reaches of Arctic waters, or as a platform in remote tropical atolls, Octopus delivers experiences that surpass any conventional superyacht charter.

True Global Reach: Transoceanic range, ice-rated features, and proven expeditions to some of the most remote regions on Earth.
Two Helipads: With one commercially rated helipad and one rated for touch and go, multiple helicopter operations become a possibility.
Unmatched Capacity: Accommodating 12 guests with a 45-person crew, providing personalized service and expedition expertise at any latitude.

Originally built for a pioneering owner, Octopus was among the first superyachts to incorporate serious exploration features, including an uncommon level of autonomy – blending true expedition spirit with ultimate luxury.

She follows a global itinerary, often in far-flung places like Antarctica, the Arctic, French Polynesia, Papua New Guinea, and the Mediterranean. Her flexible schedule and long range allow her to relocate to wherever the adventure awaits.

Absolutely. Octopus has been utilized for marine conservation projects and deep-sea expeditions. Over the years, she’s welcomed scientific teams on board to study remote reefs, document rare species, and even participate in archaeological dives. This balance of comfort, exploration, and purpose is what truly sets Octopus apart.
