The Silver Lining: A Luxurious 50-Metre Motor Yacht on the Market
The nautical world is buzzing with excitement as the stunning 50-metre Christensen motor yacht, Silver Lining, comes back into the spotlight. Currently listed for sale through Michael Mahan of Worth Avenue Yachts, this impressive vessel has recently undergone a price adjustment, now available for $29,950,000 after a significant reduction of $1,000,000. This is a golden opportunity for discerning buyers looking to own a piece of maritime luxury.
Craftsmanship and Class
Constructed from Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) by the reputable Christensen Shipyards, Silver Lining is not just any yacht; it is a significant milestone for the shipyard, being their first superyacht completed following a buyout in 2015. Delivered in 2016, she represents the pinnacle of craftsmanship, boasting the largest volume of any Christensen yacht to date—with over 637 square metres of exquisite interior space. Classified under ABS, this yacht exemplifies durability and design excellence.
The meticulous care given to Silver Lining is evident; her crew of 11 ensures that she is “meticulously maintained,” making her ready for immediate adventures with her new owner. Having been last refitted in 2021, this yacht is poised for luxury cruising without the typical waiting periods of yacht preparation and maintenance.
Spacious Accommodations
Accommodating up to 16 guests, Silver Lining features six spacious cabins that epitomize luxury and comfort. On the main deck, the full-beam master suite offers a king-sized bed, his-and-hers en suite facilities with both a shower and a sumptuous Jacuzzi bath, and two generous walk-in wardrobes. The thoughtful design includes a master study close by, showcasing the yacht’s commitment to providing a homely and opulent environment.
Located aft on the lower deck is a full-beam VIP suite that enjoys a larger bathroom equipped with dual sinks, a shower, and a bathtub. In addition, two king-sized cabins and two double cabins with Pullman berths are available, ensuring comfort for every guest. Each cabin comes with en suite bathroom facilities, ensuring privacy and convenience for all onboard.
A Blend of Elegance and Functionality
The yacht’s interior, designed by the talented Kimberly Graham, effectively utilizes the expansive spaces, radiating elegance through its high-gloss Mahogany detailing and warm-toned materials, including luxurious silk and polished marble.
Step into the main saloon, where grandeur meets comfort. This inviting area features ample seating, a well-stocked bar, and an entertainment center, all leading seamlessly to a spacious aft deck equipped with sofas, coffee tables, and a bar with stools for serene evenings under the stars. Meanwhile, the formal dining area can host up to 12 guests, creating the perfect setting for exquisite dining experiences onboard.
The full-beam sky lounge is another highlight of Silver Lining, with its built-in bar featuring an elegant Onyx top, a dining table for six, and a games table, providing the perfect atmosphere for relaxation and entertainment.
Outdoor Entertainment
Outdoor spaces are just as impressive as the interior. A large aft bridge deck accessible from the sky lounge features two automatic doors and floor-to-ceiling glass panels, offering breathtaking views while dining at a table that comfortably seats 12. More casual seating options are situated aft, creating a welcoming outdoor retreat.
On the sundeck, amenities include a bar with seating for eight, a U-shaped sofa, a fridge, and a Jacuzzi that accommodates up to eight guests—perfect for soaking up the sun or enjoying a refreshing dip. A standout feature is the fully certified touch-and-go helipad located at the aft of the sundeck, ensuring quick and easy access for guests arriving via helicopter.
Exceptional Performance
Powering this magnificent vessel are twin MTU engines, which allow Silver Lining to achieve a cruising speed of 14 knots and a maximum speed of 16 knots. This powerful performance enhances both the practicality and pleasure of maritime travel for her future owner.
Upcoming Showcase
With Silver Lining currently docked in West Palm Beach, Florida, she is set to make a splash at the forthcoming Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show—the world’s largest in-water boat show. This event will provide potential buyers with the perfect opportunity to explore this remarkable yacht in person.
