Selene 56 m aluminium ketch, represents the ultimate evolution of the successful 56m-series that have included sisterships SY Burrasca, SY Santa Maria and SY Rosehearty . Her design has been optimised by Perini Navi in consultation with Ron Holland Design to achieve high performance under sail. Perini Navi 's Interior Design Department realized a modern interpretation of Art Déco style. The style is reflect ed in the wide and rich variety of precious and refined materials. Woods such as ebony, frisé maple, wengè, Myrthus and Bavona briar-roots are integrated with stainless steel, leather, parchment and white Afion marble.

On the main deck , a lateral corridor, located to port side, allows the crew transit from the aft cockpit to the crew quarters through the pantry and the wheel house without interfering with the privacy of the guests. The grand saloon, bar and dining are separated by sliding doors. This gives the feeling of being in an open space, but with the privacy of separated areas. The flying bridge offers a spa pool, sun mattresses , and casual dining . Below, shaded by the bridge overhang, the aft guest cockpit offers comfortable al fresco dining and lounging together with a plasma television and entertainment system .

Selene features a very elegant innovation in her transom, which hydraulically opens and reveals a structural stair case ending with a wide swimming platform for guests comfortable access to the sea. She also has a swimming platform located on the port side created from the door of her spacious lazarette.


Accommodations
Accomodation for 12 guests in 5 cabins, include a full-beam master suite with sitting room, walk in wardrobe, his and her bath and shower room. There are two large double cabins with bathrooms and two twin bedded cabins each with a shower room and an additional pullman.

  • I don't understand why anyone would want a motor yacht when there are beautiful examples of sailing yachts like this in the world.

  • I just love Perini Navi. I am saving up for one of these. I am putting away $500 a month and in 4,000 yrs that baby is mine.

  • @torTIja yes but her fuel cost is very much lower then a motor yacht the same size.

  • @iamloudmusic high generator fuel costs remain the same besides costs for good crew and rigg maintenance works etc.

  • @shananagans5 ;-)) Great answer and great project!

  • it is a thing of beauty, as would be the bank account that funds it.

  • @iamloudmusic I can think of a few reasons: 1) a motor yacht of the same length is a lot shallower, allowing access to more ports. 2) a motor yacht of the same length has a lot more volume, which brings more accommodation, more crew for service etc. 3) because a motor yacht doesn't heel while underway, which a lot of people don't like and 4) because motor yachts have more freeboard (usually) according to designs. I'd feel a lot safer in a steel hulled expedition yacht than a Perini.

  • @kylibar for example a wally yacht with 6,5 million is not like a motor yyacht with 100 million! i think sailboats are more beautiful than die moter yachts! think about who you are !

  • a colleague in the workshop has two of this...

  • a sailboat of that size is more than likely... note I SAY LIKELY.. i dont really know, but what I do know is that sailboats are WAY MORE EXPENSIVE THAN YOU THINK. The statement power vs sail, thats an argument thats been around WAY longer than you or I. 3 masts have a lot of hardware and upkeep, whereas a power boat with one engine, and a steering wheel... thats alot easier... just depends on who you are, and your personality. Anyway... just blabbin here - nice boat, outa time. l8er

  • iamloudmusic - its about personal pref. and $. Somone who has a sailing yacht spends less$ than somone with a motor yacht. I have a 34' sailboat of my own, but its cheaper to move than my father's 22' power boat. It's all about what YOU want, and if YOU can afford it or not. I can afford something else, but as it stands, Im right where I should be - Im saving and making $. I have a question for you... where exactly were you going with that question?.... one more thing...read next post...
