Bella | Sunseeker | 25.15m | 2005 | € 1,195,000
A sleek, streamlined Sunseeker 82, Bella was delivered to her original owners in 2005. Well maintained over the years, her interiors were reupholstered in 2022 to include new blinds, and her galley countertop and black splash were replaced. Measuring 25.15 metres in length, this planing flybridge yacht features rather impressive exterior spaces across all three decks for a yacht her size. Key features onboard Bella include the main salon, illuminated by plenty of natural light, with an open galley with state-of-the-art equipment, and her spacious flybridge, complete with a wet bar, BBQ, and sweeping panoramic views. Forward on the main deck, she has space for sunbathing in more privacy, while her aft deck is ideal for alfresco dining. Bella is able to accommodate up to eight overnight guests across four ensuite staterooms, including a spacious and elegant owner’s suite with a walk-in closet and vanity, a VIP stateroom forward and two double ensuite staterooms. Powered by twin CAT C30 diesel engines, she has a top speed of 29 knots and a cruising speed of 24 knots. She is currently located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, with an asking price of €1,195,000.
Wet Asset | Princess Yachts | 22.83m | 2003 | €895,000
Designed for a comfortable and seamless life out on the open waters, Wet Asset is planing fibreglass 23m Princess Yacht that was delivered by the English shipyard to her original owners in 2003. Meticulously maintained in tip-top condition, she features an extended, open-plan main deck layout, with direct access to her flybridge from her main saloon. One of the key features onboard Wet Asset is the flybridge. It houses a crane for the easy handling of water toys or equipment and is an ideal space for relaxing or entertaining, thanks to the addition of large sunpads. Another highlight is the rise-and-fall window in the aft cockpit, blending indoor and outdoor spaces to create an al fresco experience even while inside. Able to accommodate up to six guests in three ensuite staterooms, this includes a sweeping owner’s suite complete with a walk-in closet. Powered by twin MAN diesel engines, she has a top speed of over 28 knots and a cruising speed of 21 knots. Wet Asset is currently located in Sweden, with an asking price of €895,000.
