Project BLACK SHARK is a major milestone for Imperial on several aspects: the very first Imperial vessel designed in close collaboration with Winch Design and Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design, and the very first publicized superyacht project from keel laying to delivery. With Project BLACK SHARK, together with NOBISKRUG we want to give a clearer understanding of our industry and how exclusive creations are coming to life, who are the people behind. We will not only reveal to the world an exciting 77-metre superyacht, but a vision from the inside like it was never done before!” – Evgeniy Kochman, Chief Executive of Imperial

Keel Laying & Coin Ceremony at NOBISKRUG

During the early stages of a yachts build, the keel laying and coin ceremony are an important milestone. Besides the placing of the keel section, the ceremony also sees the yacht owner place a special coin under the keel. Not only is this a symbolic start for the assembly of the rest of the vessel, but it is also a token of good luck for sailing the high seas. The coin is retrieved and returned to the owner upon nearing completion and also marks the accomplishment of the vessel meeting applicable regulations.
