IN EXCESS Yacht for Sale

In Excess Yacht | 97' Lowland 1990

Luxury 97-Foot Motor Yacht Designed for Comfort, Performance, and Prestige

“In Excess” is a distinguished 97-foot (approximately 29.6 meters) motor yacht that was designed by the renowned naval architect De Vries Lentsch, and meticulously constructed by the prestigious Dutch shipyard Lowland Yachts in 1990. 

With over three decades since her launch, she remains a highly attractive vessel in the luxury yacht market, consistently maintained to high standards. This yacht stands out for her elegant appearance, excellent condition, and her reputation as a technically robust and seaworthy craft.

Accommodations and Guest Capacity

The yacht is designed to accommodate up to 10 guests across four spacious cabins, each thoughtfully arranged to maximize comfort and functionality:

• One Owner’s Suite, designed with luxurious finishes and a private ambiance.

• One VIP Cabin, offering high-end comfort and generous space.

• Two double guest cabins, each fitted with Pullman berths, providing additional sleeping accommodations. These Pullman beds allow for increased guest capacity when required, making the yacht versatile for both intimate and larger groups.

In addition to guest accommodations, the yacht also includes dedicated crew quarters. These quarters provide living space for a crew of five, distributed across three cabins. This includes:

• A Captain’s cabin

• Two double crew cabins

This separation of guest and crew areas ensures privacy and efficient service during operation, especially beneficial during chartered voyages.

Elegance and Exclusive Design

“In Excess” exudes exclusivity and sophistication in every aspect of her build and presentation. This vessel reflects a high standard of craftsmanship, showcasing premium quality in both the materials used and the overall interior finish. Her design combines classical nautical elegance with timeless, practical features, making her suitable for both private enjoyment and commercial charter operations.

Both the interior and exterior of the yacht are generously proportioned, offering substantial space for relaxation, entertainment, and navigation. Whether you are seeking a vessel for exclusive charters or considering converting her for private use, In Excess presents an exceptional opportunity.

Spacious Layout and Outdoor Living

“In Excess” offers a layout that emphasizes space and comfort, with multiple areas designed for both relaxation and socializing. The yacht’s flybridge is one of her standout features, providing an expansive outdoor area with ample seating—perfect for sunbathing, casual dining, or enjoying panoramic ocean views.

On the main deck, the yacht features a large salon with panoramic windows, creating a bright and open atmosphere where guests can enjoy scenic views while relaxing in a comfortable and elegantly designed lounge area. The formal dining area is seamlessly integrated into the salon, making it suitable for hosting refined onboard meals.

The aft deck includes a large table surrounded by comfortable seating, ideal for al fresco dining or gathering with friends and family in a more casual setting.

Additionally, the yacht is equipped with a well-appointed galley (kitchen) that is both spacious and fully equipped. It includes a dinette (a cozy eating nook), offering an informal dining option that complements the formal setting of the main salon.

Performance and Seaworthiness

With a displacement of approximately 120 tons, the motoryacht is built to deliver reliable and comfortable cruising experiences. Her robust hull and engineering allow her to cruise comfortably at around 11 knots, with a top speed ranging between 16 and 17 knots.

She has an impressive cruising range of approximately 1,150 nautical miles, making her suitable for extended voyages without the need for frequent refueling. Whether navigating the Norwegian coastline or heading out on international waters, her performance credentials ensure that she delivers both range and reliability.

The yacht is also equipped with a stabilization system, which plays a crucial role in minimizing motion while underway or at anchor. This contributes significantly to onboard comfort, especially during longer passages or when weather conditions are less favorable.

Engines and Mechanical Systems

The motoryacht is powered by two Detroit Diesel 16V92TA engines, each providing 1,400 horsepower, resulting in a combined output of 2,800 horsepower. These engines are well-regarded in the marine industry for their durability and performance.

For enhanced maneuverability, especially when navigating in tight harbors or during docking, the yacht features a hydraulic bow thruster. This powerful tool significantly improves control and precision, ensuring smooth operations in even the most confined waters.

Regulatory Classification and Safety Standards

A particularly noteworthy aspect of In Excess is her classification by the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS). She has been built and maintained in accordance with ABS A1 standards, which indicates that her hull and onboard systems meet the organization’s highest benchmarks for safety, reliability, and construction quality.

The American Bureau of Shipping is one of the most respected classification societies in the world, with operations in over 70 countries. ABS certifications are recognized by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), and by numerous flag states including Norway. This places ABS in the same elite category as other prominent classification societies such as DNV (Det Norske Veritas), Lloyd’s Register, Bureau Veritas, and RINA.

Holding an ABS A1 classification allows the yacht to be immediately eligible for commercial operation, particularly in the exclusive charter segment. This means that without additional refitting, In Excess can legally and efficiently be used for luxury charter services in both Norwegian and international waters. For prospective buyers who prefer private use, the vessel can also be easily adapted for personal cruising, offering a luxurious experience at sea.

Location and Sales Information

The motoryacht is located in the Oslo area and is registered in the Norwegian Ship Registry (NOR). She is available for sale through Skippern Yachts, an international yacht brokerage with headquarters in Norway.
