YACHTS & YACHTING 21 features ample striking swamp oak. Formed when oak is submerged in peat bogs, swamps or riverbeds for hundreds to thousands of years— during which irons and tannins seep into the wood, lending it a rich, dark colour between grey and black— this highly exclusive material cannot be grown, but only found.
Loloma’ s interior can be described as European-contemporary minimalism, with her muted monochrome palette of stone, greys, sand and charcoal creating a serene atmosphere inside: uncluttered, calm, refined and textural.
Another unique feature found on board Loloma is the use of brushed stainless steel throughout, rather than the more typical polished stainless steel usually found on board Zeelander vessels. Representing the first instance of this bold design decision by her builder, the results are truly outstanding.
Add to this the seamless Corian used for her shower walls, the durable yet elegant bouclé upholstery on both her interior and exterior seating and the handpainted grey wood art found on her exterior, and the effects are clear: timeless elegance meets painstaking attention to detail.
Naturally, for a brand long associated with enviable on-water speeds, performance considerations are also effortlessly integrated into the design of Loloma. Guests can experience exhilarating speeds of up to 40 knots, thanks to her triple IPS 1350 engines, whilst still enjoying the shade provided by her permanent mesh bimini.
But it’ s not just about speed. Loloma’ s range is equally impressive. She is capable of reaching 2,700 nautical miles at 7 knots and offers a range of 630 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 32 knots.
With accommodation provided for up to six guests, a phenomenal master suite occupies the forward third of the boat below deck, boasting a kingsized island bed, a large ensuite, abundant storage and plentiful natural light. Together with two further beautifully-appointed guest suites, the accommodation harnesses Loloma’ s impressive volumes and generous headroom. The captain is housed aft, with a conveniently-placed tender garage accessed via a shell door to starboard.
