The buyer was not disclosed.
The 62-passenger, all-suite yacht with its own submersible, ample watersports activities and remote itineraries, was considered by many the crème de la crème of Crystal's offerings.
The concept 'does not fit into future plans'
In a statement, the company said: 'Crystal Esprit has been a wonderful part of the Crystal fleet, offering a boutique yachting experience unmatched in the industry, earning the devotion of discerning travelers and winning awards since her debut in 2015.
'However, as we have been evaluating our focus post-pandemic, the single, small yacht concept does not fit into future plans for the company as we continue to concentrate on the successful deployment of our Crystal ocean, river and expedition fleets, as well as exploring newbuilds for expansion.'
