Built by the legendary Dutch shipyard De Vries Lentsch, Project ORION 95 is a pedigreed Northern European classic offering the rare combination of full-displacement strength, elegant proportions, and a traditional layout seldom seen in modern yachts.

Following decades of distinguished service, ORION 95 was formally donated and entered a major restoration and structural rebuild program. Since arriving at Marina Mile Yachting Center, she has undergone extensive renewal exceeding $1 million USD in verified ship repair work.

Upgrades

• Extensive hull and tank plating replacement
• Structural reinforcement at superstructure attachment points
• Exterior refinishing above the waterline
• Full media blasting and application of a complete new antifouling system

She arrived at MMYC under her own power with all propulsion and generator systems intact, recording the following operational hours at arrival:

Structural

All primary steel renewal and hull plating completed. Tanks rebuilt, main deck reinforced, and exterior refinished in white. Over $1M in verified structural and cosmetic restoration completed to date.

Mechanical & Systems

Twin Caterpillar D343T main engines and twin generators remain installed; both require recommissioning and servicing. Electrical, hydraulic, and navigation systems are due for modernization to current standards.

Interior

The interior is in fair condition and ready for a full refit. Soft goods, guest stateroom joinery, and crew accommodations offer a blank canvas for a new owner’s customization and styling preferences.

Ownership and Sale Status

Title is held free and clear, with complete shipyard documentation and work records available for inspection.

Project ORION 95 is offered as a structurally renewed mid-refit opportunity, ideal for a capable owner, captain, or engineer seeking to complete systems re commissioning and interior outfitting.

With her critical steelwork and hull renewal complete, she now stands as a solid platform awaiting a finishing phase of mechanical and interior completion.

Summary

Project ORION 95 is not a speculative rebuild, she is a proven De Vries Lentsch steel motor yacht whose foundation has already been fully renewed. For the discerning buyer or restoration enthusiast, she offers a cost-advantaged entry into classic yacht ownership, combining pedigree, character, and value with the integrity of a rebuilt Northern European hull.

This is a rare opportunity to complete and command a genuine Dutch classic of enduring craftsmanship and distinction.
