Aegean Yachts have proudly announced the launch of 26m (85’3″) motor yacht HEKATE, the second hull in the Aegean Explorer series. She is a meticulously crafted explorer yacht with robust steel hull and aluminium superstructure. Incredibly stable, with a 187GT volume she offers comfort on long voyages in challenging waters.
Accommodation on board is for up to twelve guests and has a unique configuration which includes three master suites, each on a different deck, providing extraordinary levels of privacy and space -the upper deck master even has a private exterior terrace. As well as the master suites there are two twin cabins and a VIP suite on the lower deck, all beautifully designed with guest comfort in mind.
The interior makes the most of every inch of space on board and is decorated with a lovely balance of materials including matte-finished lime-washed oak, white lacquer and stainless steel, making the space elegant and inviting throughout.
The crew facilities and amenities are equally well considered with the galley being ideal for extended cruising thanks to the ample storage. The four crew cabins are well-appointed, with ensuite facilities, ensuring the crew are comfortable and rested on long voyages so they can deliver premium service.
Performance comes from twin 650 HP MAN engines and two KOHLER 35kW generators, which deliver a top speed of 12.7 knots with a range of 3,500 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 9.5 knots.
Luxury explorer yacht HEKATE will be showcased at the Cannes Yachting Festival from 10-15 September and the Monaco Yacht Show between 25-28 September. She is immediately ready to cruise and awaits her new owner.
