Sailing Yacht Vertigo

SY Vertigo was built by New Zealand’s Alloy Yachts and was delivered to her owner in 2011.

The yacht is designed by Phillipe Briand, with interior design by Christian Liaigre. Liaigre also designed the interior of Rosehearty, Murdoch’s other sail yacht.

Specifications

She is powered by 2 Caterpillar engines. Which bring her a top speed of 17 knots. Her cruising speed is 12 knots.

Interior

The yacht’s interior is very child friendly, with a TV-room for the owners two younger children. Vertigo has a gym and a beach club, each featuring large hull openings.

The yacht can accommodate 12 guests and has a crew of 11.

Owner

There are rumors on the Internet that Mr. Murdoch is the owner of the SY Vertigo yacht. However, Superyachtfan received a message from Y.CO that Mr. Murdoch is actually NOT the owner of Vertigo.

Superyachtfan is not sure who owns Vertigo. But until somebody sends us an e-mail with the name of the actual owner, we will hold on to Mr. Murdoch. (We must admit that the ‘child-friendliness’ does not really link ownership to Murdoch, but more to Lachlan Murdoch). It is very possible that the yacht is owned by Rupert’s son Lachlan Murdoch. He also owns the sailing yacht Sarissa. Lachlan Murdoch’s net worth is estimated at $ 2 billion.

SuperYachtFan

What started as a ‘yacht spotter’ hobby, turned into a fast-growing yachting site with thousands of unique daily visitors.

In 2009 SuperYachtFan in its current format was published online and soon the focus changed from ‘yacht photos’ to ‘yacht owners’, creating the Super Yacht Owners Register. A database with more than 1,370 yacht owners.

This was an instant success as many people around the world are interested in, or curious about, these multi-million dollar yachts and their wealthy owners.

Investigative journalism

The SuperYachtFan team is active in Investigative journalism. We spend a lot of team researching and deeply investigating yacht ownership structures.

Our reporting is copied and/or used by many international media companies.

SuperYacht Site

With thousands of daily visitors and a strong growth rate, SuperYachtFan became one of the largest ‘superyacht sites’. We realize the most organic search traffic of all known yachting websites.

Social Media

We are active on social media including Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter. Somehow our accounts on Tumblr and Reddit were terminated. (We asked why but did not receive any explanations. Luckily, we can live without those ;-) )

Disclaimer

The details about yacht ownership as stated on this site and in our Yacht Owners Register are sometimes based on rumors. Often actual yacht ownership by the private individuals mentioned can not be confirmed, at least from a legal point of view.

On the other hand… where there’s smoke, there is fire ;-)
