Lurssen Superyacht KISMET Cruises In The Norwegian Fjords

By Oliver Pearson 7 June 2016

Bringing out a large and discerning crowd in Bergen last week, the 95m/312ft motor yacht KISMET has since made her way through to Vikoyri, a small village along the southern shore of Sognefjorden, Norway.

Understandably causing quite the stir in sunny Norway on Saturday, KISMET attracted more than just a few bystanders keen to study her Espen Oeino styled exterior.

Preparing to cruise through the famous fjords to the north, her instantly recognisable exterior meant that the iconic jaguar statue which occasionally graces her bow wasn’t necessary for the shrewder members of the crowd to identify the motor yacht.

Since then, KISMET has made passage through Sognefjorden, stopping to get a closer look at villages such as Nese, an historic and picturesque destination nestled a short distance from Vikoyri.

More than equipped to handle the more rural climes of Scandinavia, KISMET includes a range of features which make such an adventurous luxury charter vacation more than desirable.

Expertly balancing style and substance, superyacht KISMET provides charterers the chance to see the more remote parts of the world in unrivalled comfort

Comprised of four regions, the Norwegian Fjords span the west of Norway and are home to an all but inexhaustible amount of charter grounds perfect for kayaking and other similarly unique sightseeing activities.

Of course, when chartering around such lush landscapes, it helps to do so in a vessel which couples performance with luxury - a fact that motor yacht KISMET has finely anticipated.

Her main salon, for example, has two fireplaces to ensure that guests have an intimate and warm area to return to if the weather isn’t as glowing as the Mediterranean or the Caribbean.

This being said, if the weather does permit sunbathing, there’s an abundance of exterior deck space to unfurl on, as well as a basketball court on the foredeck which doubles up as a helipad.
