LASSE
LASSE was launched in August 1940 in Stubbekøbing, when her hull was registered. Her story has not been fully reconstructed, but "Eva" (her original name) was given by the King of Denmark before the war. , "Eva"miraculously escaped Allied bombing.
After passing between several owners and changing its name to "LASSE", the boat was used by French film director René Clément in his 1960 film "Purple Noon," starring famous French actor Alain Delon, taking the name "Marge" for the production. The most passionate scenes were shot aboard the gorgeous yacht at sea, and if Alain Delon is decidedly the hero, LASSE is also at the heart of this detective film until its end.
