1. Сanadian Vickers Christina O, 99 m, 1943
Interior design: Apostles Molindris & Associates
The most remarkable of the three grand pianos on board the superyacht that once belonged to Aristotle Onassis, is the one standing in the Callas Lounge. It’s a Steinway that was ordered especially for Maria Callas and for the yacht that she was so fond of.
2. Lürssen Quattroelle, 88 m, 2013
Interior design: Nuvolari Lenard
A classic Steinway stands on one of the most luxurious Lürssens capable of accommodating up to 16 guests. It makes the saloon look solemn, spacious and definitely main, although in fact it is the upper one and is more of the owner’s apartment.
3. Rossinavi Numptia, 70 m, 2011
Interior design: Salvagni Architetti
The yacht that was ahead of its time in so many ways still amazes people with her elegance and thoughtfulness. The Steinway & Sons grand piano fits into the vibrant environment in the style of 1930-40s, blending perfectly with the furniture meticulously selected by Italian architect and designer Achille Salvagni.
4. Codecasa Double Down, 65 m, 2010

The black Steinway was gracefully incorporated into this classical interior with mahogany as the unifying element by Dell Role studio, which even Georgio Armani had entrusted with his own yacht interior decoration.
5. Vitters Marie, 55 m, 2010
Interior design: David Easton
This is a rare case, when a grand piano sits on board a sailing, not a motor yacht. Moreover, it is a sailing yacht, racing in the Caribbean. A compact Steinway decorates the main saloon, designed by legendary classicist David Easton.
6. Pruva Regina, 56 m, 2011
Interior design: Aylin Örs
This schooner that starred in the James Bond “Skyfall” film as Chimera can also boast a grand piano onboard. Moreover, it’s a white Steinway that looks especially superb from the open deck.
7. Amels Engelberg, 55 m, 2013
Interior design: Enzo Enea
When Engelberg was handed over to her owner, she was the most individualized of Amels Limited Editions, designed by… a landscape architect. The boudoir grand Steinway decorates the upper deck, where everything is provided for unforgettable evening events.
8. Lürssen Kismet, 95 m, 2014
Interior design: Reymond Langton
The interior of the famous Kismet is unlikely to be forgotten – just like the grand piano in the centre of the main deck. This futuristic British Goldfinch Baby Piano was created in collaboration with Based Upon art-studio and can also serve as a bar.
9. Amels Here comes the Sun, 83 m, 2017
Interior design: Winch design
This German Bechstein as part of the impeccable interior of the flagship of the Dutch Amels shipyard is an example of a different kind of piano classics. The instrument stands on the main deck and definitely looks relevant here.
10. VSY Sealyon, 62 m, 2009
Interior design: Candy & Candy
The transparent Schimmel fits into the incredibly bright and modern interior of the yacht perfectly. One could see Lenny Krawitz and other stars playing similar instruments. And yes – a classical instrument does not have to be black and strict.
