The first thing that catches the eye is a large waterfall at the stern, spilling over from the 23-foot-long main-deck infinity pool. It’s a theatrical nod to the yacht’s exterior transformation, which saw 26 feet added to the steel hull at the stern and seven feet to the forward deck line. The extra length accommodates the owner’s request for a large pool aft that is designed with a raising dance floor. It also gives the vessel, originally launched in 2000 as  Al Mirqab , a sleeker, more modern profile. The next owner, F1’s Force India boss and now fugitive Vijay Mallya, renamed it Indian Empress . He was known for throwing extravagant parties aboard.

The 345-foot Oceanco 'H2' is emerging after a three-year refit as a brand-new yacht.

“The yacht was very boxy before, so we cut the entire superstructure off and rebuilt it to be as sleek as possible,” Jonathan Bevan, Reymond Langton’s exterior designer, tells Robb Report . Bevan also designed H3 ’s two “mini-me” Compass tenders—a 36-foot limousine and 34-foot open sportboat—that look like the mothership.

The owner’s deck and upper-deck aft areas—once used to host large parties for the opening night of the Monaco Grand Prix—have both been reduced in length. Coupled with a new enclosed gym on the sun deck, it gives the profile a more balanced look.

Bevan also eschewed straight lines in favor of contoured bulwarks that run the length of the yacht. “We’ve added a rolling-wave undercut that reflects the surface of the sea below and gives a sense of motion when the boat is moving,” he says.

Another noteworthy feature is the 33-foot-long video corridor. It links the welcome lounge and bar with the main salon, as well as concealing the tender bays on either side. On our tour, a floor-to-ceiling aquarium was displayed, but it can be used for all types of media, from videos to artwork. In the welcome lounge, an LED screen or “tech window” is linked to a camera pointing outside to give guests the choice between a virtual view or normal TV.

The interior has been taken back to the bare skin and designed anew. “A refit of this scale has not been done before. We wanted to create something dramatic and unrecognizable that can be enjoyed by family as well as for entertaining,” Reymond Langton’s interior designer, Elizabeth Kozlova, tells Robb Report .

Custom art runs throughout the yacht, including leather wall panels by Helen Amy Murray, woven metal by Sophie Mallebranche and decorative glass by Bernard Pictet. A palette of ivory and taupe tones combines with fiddleback sycamore, light oak, soft nubucks, and Foglizzo leathers that contrast with bronze and nickel detailing. The en suites and day heads are dressed in light marbles, such as Calacatta Vagli, Crema Delicato, and backlit quartz.

In the main foyer, a round Bianco Lasa marble floor frames a glass elevator that runs from the main deck to the bridge deck. The dedicated owner’s deck has a full-beam stateroom with walk-in wardrobes and an en suite. A private beauty salon and a study can be used as two additional guest cabins. The owner’s lounge has sofas, casual dining for 14, three Lasvit glass chandeliers, and two backlit infinity mirrors on the same level.

The yacht’s gross tonnage increased from 3,045GT to 3,521GT during the rebuild, which gave the designers more room to play with in an already high-volume vessel. They responded with high ceilings, more accommodation to sleep the 32 crew, and a full-beam VIP that serves as a second master, with private use of the bridge deck aft. Six guest cabins on the main deck bring total guest accommodations up to 20. On the lower deck is a destination spa with a hammam and sensory shower, a hair salon, and massage and beauty rooms.

Powered by triple, military-spec MTU 20V 1163 TB93 diesel engines for a massive 30,000 combined horsepower, H3 hit 30 knots during sea trials. That’s an impressive top end for a yacht this size, but then again, everything else about the new H3 is extraordinary.

PREVIEW OF AN ICON: H3

motor yacht h3

On 10 January 2023, at a milestone event, a revolutionary superyacht was witnessed at Oceanco’s construction facilities in The Netherlands. H3 has undergone a complete transformation that is practically unprecedented in its scale and nature.

NEW PERSPECTIVES DELIVER NEW POTENTIALS

The yachting world has seen commercial vessels converted into superyachts, and heritage yachts being returned to their original glory, but this is the first time a superyacht has been recreated to face the future as a wholly new, contemporary vessel. The results reinforce Oceanco’s reputation for tackling challenging projects and delivering industry firsts.

Oceanco’s CEO Marcel Onkenhout comments: “ To say that this has been a remarkable process is an understatement. The project has called for passion, dedication, and extraordinary craftsmanship, with many involved in her creation now contributing to her recreation, including myself. We are proud to say that we are relaunching a completely new Oceanco.”

H3 displays a modern exterior aesthetic, including a completely new superstructure, alongside a fresh interior by Reymond Langton Design.

motor yacht h3

The reimagining of this icon calls into question our notion of what defines a yacht. To consider the connection between form and identity, and a yacht’s potential for evolution; taking on new shapes and new meanings.

The A Group’s Richard Hein, who acted as the independent owner’s representative for the project, adds: “ This almost unimaginable transformation has been able to take place thanks to the shared trust, perseverance and expertise of the team involved. A yacht is more than just the materialization of an owner’s vision. It has its own character, its own specific habitat, with a unique purpose and story. Through the achievements of this project we have been able to extend the story of a remarkable superyacht for decades to come. It is about seeing the potential for all vessels, rather than starting from a blank sheet of paper each time.”

POSITIVE IMPACT

Aside from her physical transformation, the work undertaken brings H3 into the future with contemporary standards in terms of technology, safety, capability and sustainability. She has an operational profile that is fully compliant with rigorous IMO Tier III standards, not to mention upgrades to her technological capabilities across the board.

At a time when the yachting industry is increasingly mindful of the impact that newly built vessels have on the planet, it is pertinent to highlight that bringing an existing superyacht’s environmental profile up to date with contemporary standards can have as much, if not more, of a positive impact.

“It is a proud moment for me to see the nearing completion of this transformation, having personally been involved in returning H3 to her birthplace for this ambitious project” added Dr. Barwani, Chairman of Oceanco.

THE GIFT OF TIME

And with delivery windows for new construction projects booked up into the latter part of the decade, the scope of 1050H’s transformation means that she emerges from her launch as an almost completely new yacht. Except in this case, she benefitted from a year’s reduced timetable for completion thanks to the decrease in time spent on engineering and hull construction. All while maintaining her Oceanco pedigree.

“It is our ambition that this landmark project will inspire owners of existing yachts to benefit from the gift of time while adding value to their ownership experience as well as the planet. Through this approach, icons have the potential to become the new faces of tomorrow,” comments Oceanco Marketing Director Paris Baloumis.

Motor yacht H3 (ex NEOM, INDIAN EMPRESS, Al Mirqab) is a majestic 105.0m (344'6") superyacht built by the prestigious shipyard Oceanco and completely rebuilt in 2023. Originally launched in 2000, her naval architecture and exterior styling were completed by The A Group, while Mark Berryman completed her interior styling. The accommodation provides a maximum of 32 guests with 16 cabins, including VIP staterooms, double cabins and twin cabins. She has a highly-skilled and professional crew of 42.

NOTABLE FEATURES OF H3: ~ Elevator ~ Fully-equipped gym~ Stabilisers ~ Massage room ~ Sauna ~ Beauty salon ~ Piano ~ 17 cabins ~ Crew of 33 ~ Various dining areas ~ WiFi ~ Air-conditioning

Guests boarding by tender will arrive at the swim platform and reach the main deck aft via the joint staircases. Here, the expansive deck are can be used to store two tenders and there is room in the centre for a comfortable alfresco lounge.

On the next level, the owner's deck contains two sun-exposed seating areas facing out over the stern. In the shade of the bridge deck overhang, a grand alfresco dining table fits seamlessly with the pale teak deck and the fresh robin's blue egg of the outdoor lounges situated on the port and starboard sides.

Since the refit, the bridge deck no longer has a helipad, and the space has instead been turned into an outdoor entertaining area, with two tenders discreetly tucked out of the way.

While the centre of the aft deck has been left clear for dancing, there is a wide forward bar and plenty of seating placed around the stern and sides: Two curved sofas each surround a coffee table with a large sun umbrella in the centre to provide shade. The sun-exposed seating on the port and starboard sides each have a large low table ideal for resting drinks and lanterns for an ambient night under the stars.

Above, the sundeck allows guests a place to soak in the sunshine in tranquil surroundings and the layout has sun loungers and a foredeck lounge for outdoor dining enjoying sweeping views.

The guest accommodation is spread across the lower deck and the main deck forward and consists of one VIP stateroom, seven double cabins, and seven twin cabins. Behind the guest cabins, there is a stately formal dining room where guests can celebrate a special occasion. Opposite, there is a guest lounge for quiet relaxation after a hearty meal.

Within the centre of the main deck is the conference room, which can also be used to host lavish meals on special dockside occasions. A waiting room and office further aft connect through to the magnificent main salon where pristine modern surroundings with art deco detailing create the hub for your indoor soiree. Rich yellow-varnished wood and gold accents create a warm environment against blue-grey furnishings and guests and visitors have plenty of seating to choose from, including an entertainment area where the sofas and armchairs are directed at the high-definition TV.

One of the incredible items aboard M/Y H3 is Elton John's grand piano, which occupies pride of place beside the fully-stocked bar. The owner's deck can be shared with other guests or used exclusively by the occupants of the Master suite, while the two double cabins and two twin cabins could be used by close family members. The forward deck features a full-beam Master suite complete with a walk-in wardrobe, en-suite bathroom, and widescreen high-definition television. The tremendous amount of space within this apartment contains two beautiful contemporary sofas placed on the port and starboard sides and a forward lounge consisting of two semi-circle sofas around a coffee table, which receive plenty of natural light from the multitude of windows. Here, guests can choose to take in the views from indoors or go outside onto the private terrace fitted with an outdoor settee.

The gym, sauna, steam room and spa are also located on the owner's deck beside the state-of-the-art cinema which can seat all guests in comfortable air-conditioned surroundings. The final room is the sky lounge, which offers a more intimate and less formal environment than the main salon and gives guests celebrating out on the large bridge deck aft a cool retreat. The fully-equipped sky lounge bar is nestled near the windows, and the mirror-like ceiling amplifies the sunlight from the windows during the evening hours.

Quick Enquiry

"A shipyard sells a yacht and after the warranty period has concluded, often the client and yacht are forgotten. If you look at Oceanco, we see the client as a client for a lifetime. We take care of all of them, even if he has a 25 year old Oceanco." - Dr Mohammed Al Barwani, Oceanco Chairman, a world-class builder of custom superyachts in the 80–140 meters range: "We pride ourselves in integrating fine old world dutch craftmanship with sophisticated new world know-how and TOMORROW’S TECHNOLOGY. To our craftsmen, PERFECTION is a point of principle. We encourage a philosophy whereby each individual feels personally responsible for the quality of the entire yacht."

Rebuilt 105m Oceanco superyacht H3 for sale

The 105.3-metre Oceanco superyacht H3 has joined the market with Will Bagshaw of Edmiston , having completed a major rebuild in 2024.

Originally delivered as a 95-metre in 2000 and built by Dutch yard Oceanco to designs by The A Group , her rebuild included an extension of 10 metres to her hull, eight of which were at the aft deck and two metres towards the bow. Previous names include Al Mirqab, Indian Empress and Neom .

Reymond Langton Design was responsible for both the exterior and interior redesign, while Lateral Naval Architects and Oceanco collaborated on her naval architecture. She picked up a Neptune at the 2024 World Superyacht Awards and she comes with a full shipyard "new build" warranty.

H3 had a completely new superstructure built and her straight lines were replaced by more sculptural curves, as favoured by Reymond Langton Design. The total window area was increased from 220 square metres to 392 square metres, with many floor-to-ceiling panes, making for a much brighter interior with better views out. The new interior is described by Andrew Langton as being more "relaxed, but still with a little bit of show".

History of Novosibirsk Oblast

Over thousands of years, the territory of the Novosibirsk region, due to its location on the border of natural zones and cultural regions (the Siberian taiga and the Eurasian steppe), played the role of a buffer zone or border zone of different peoples.

In the 13th-15th centuries, this land was the eastern outskirts of the Golden Horde. Later, until the end of the 16th century, it was part of the Siberian Khanate. In the 18th century, the territory of the present Novosibirsk region became part of the Russian Empire.

Despite the relatively favorable climate, the Russians began to settle here relatively late. The Barabin Tatars were the indigenous people. Today, their total population is about 10,000 people living mainly in the western parts of the region.

The Barabin Tatars were subjected to constant attacks of the Kalmyks (the Oyrates and Teleuts). Russian villages were also under the threat. That’s why people preferred to settle in the north, near Tomsk. Only at the end of the 17th century, Novosibirsk province became attractive to settlers.

More Historical Facts…

The first settlement was founded by the boyar son Alexey Kruglik in 1695. Later, this settlement became the village of Kruglikovo. Today, it is located in Bolotninsky district. In the early 18th century, Berdsky stockaded town was built. Over time, the threat from the nomads decreased and the number of settlers increased.

In 1722, the Siberian line of fortresses along the Irtysh River was constructed. The locals were mainly engaged in soil tilling, fishing and hunting. In the early 19th century, the famous Ural manufacturer Akinfiy Demidov constructed two copper melting plants here - Kolyvansky and Barnaulsky.

In 1893, due to the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway and the railway bridge across the Ob River, Alexandrovsky settlement was built (from 1895 - Novonikolayevsky). Thanks to its convenient geographical location (the Trans-Siberian Railway crossing the Ob River, transportation ways connecting Siberia with the European part of the Russian Empire), its trade importance grew rapidly. In 1909, Novonikolayevsk became a town. In 1925, it was renamed in Novosibirsk.

Before 1921, the territory of Novosibirsk oblast was part of Tomsk gubernia, from 1921 to 1925 - of Novonikolayevsk gubernia, from 1925 to 1930 - of Siberian krai, from 1930 to 1937 - of West Siberian krai. September 28, 1937, West Siberian krai was divided into Novosibirsk oblast and Altay krai. This date is considered the official date of the region formation.

Novosibirsk Oblast - Features

Novosibirsk Oblast is located in the south east of the East-Siberian Plain, in the steppe, forest-steppe and taiga zones, between the Ob and the Irtysh rivers. The length of the region from west to east - 642 km, from north to south - 444 km.

The southern part of Vasyugan swamp, the largest swamp in the world, occupies the territory in the north and north-west of the province. In the southwest, it borders with Pavlodar oblast of Kazakhstan.

There are about 3,000 lakes on the territory of the Novosibirsk region. The largest lakes are Chany, Ubinskoye, Sartlan. Novosibirsk Reservoir also known as “the Ob Sea” (1,082 sq. km.) was created for Novosibirsk Hydroelectric Power Plant.

The climate is continental. The average temperature in January ranges from minus 16 degrees Celsius in the south and minus 20 degrees Celsius in the north. The average temperature in July - plus 18-20 degrees Celsius.

The largest cities and towns are Novosibirsk (1,621,000), Berdsk (103,500), Iskitim (54,700), Kuybishev (43,000). Novosibirsk is one the largest industrial, transport, scientific, and cultural center of Russia, the third most populous city in the country after Moscow and St. Petersburg. It is also the capital of the Siberian Federal District.

In the historical part of Novosibirsk you can find a lot of preserved monuments of the Russian Empire times. The Soviet era is presented by numerous scientific and cultural attractions, as well as beautiful parks.

There are more than 500 deposits of various mineral resources in Novosibirsk Oblast (coal, refractory clay, peat, anthracite). Natural gas and oil fields are located in the north-western part of the region. There are significant reserves of underground thermal and mineral waters. Forests cover about 4 million hectares, more than 20% of the territory.

Novosibirsk Oblast is one of the most industrially developed regions in Siberia (metal processing and machine building, food, power engineering, non-ferrous metallurgy industries). Heavy industries are concentrated in Novosibirsk, Iskitim and Berdsk.

The regional agriculture specializes in the cultivation of grain, potatoes and vegetables. Dairy cattle breeding, poultry farming and beekeeping are developed. The production of flax plays an important role too. Agricultural development of the territory is not high (about 48%). In general, it has about 25% of all agricultural land in Western Siberia.
