uests and owners aboard the 87m Feadship superyacht Lonian are now enjoying even greater convenience on the water. The new Hodor Alu Cat shadow vessel is tailor-made for the needs of guests aboard the superyacht, transferring guests safely, extending the list of leisure activities available, and offering loads of space for the ferrying crew members or extra supplies and equipment. At 66m long, the vessel accommodates twenty crew and staff members, with sufficient deck and storage space for supplies and sports equipment. The design even boasts a submarine garage and helipad. Hodor was designed by Australian company Incat Crowther and built by Spanish shipyard Astilleros ArmĂłn in their fully-enclosed Burela location.

The vessel is powered by two MTU 16V 4000 M73L main engines, rated at 2832 kW output and reaching maximum speeds of 22.5 knots and able to cruise at 14 knots on long-haul passages of up to 5,500 nautical miles. The MTU SCR system for exhaust gas purification is specially adapted to MTU engines and complies with the current IMO III emissions directive, reducing polluting NOx emissions by a significant margin. Thanks to the efficient multihull design, only 160,000 liters of fuel are needed to achieve the vessel’s maximum range. The hull has an inverted bow, a carrying capacity of 240t, and a low propeller pull of 3.1m. Particularly created for the significant reduction of NOx emissions, MTU uses a technology
