Here is a rare opportunity to develop a modern superyacht constructed from traditional materials.

Alternately she would make a great houseboat.  

Approximate Dimensions

Length Overall  156ft 47.55m
Waterline Length  144.9ft 44.14m
Beam  22.7ft 6.93m
Draft  7.5ft 2.29m
Displacement  230 tons 233,000kg
Classification Germanischer Lloyds +100 A5 (Motoryacht) + MC MSA Code of Practice for commercial yacht

This 156 ft yacht when complete would have trans-Atlantic range. 

An Abeking & Rasmussen wooden hull is the basis for this conversion. Built originally as a mine sweeper for the German Navy without regard to costs, this hull was designed for speed, fuel efficiency and performance and to handle the most adverse sea conditions.

The construction gives prime advantages over today's materials.
Thermal insulation
Acoustic insulation
Strength without corrosion

Yacht builders would still be using timber if availability and price would allow them.
