SERENİSSİMA 42

Just under twenty-three metres, this flybridge motor yacht is built around a small guest list and the kind of Aegean itinerary that moves every day rather than sitting in one bay. She was launched in 2004 and refitted in 2018. Twin MTU engines give a 26-knot cruising speed, which puts most of the Gulf's anchorages within a morning's run.

The aft deck is laid in teak, with a timber dining table, folding directors' chairs and a banquette wrapped around the transom end, all under a fitted awning. On the flybridge, a full sunpad and side settee sit directly behind the helm console and its wooden wheel. Inside, the salon works as two facing seating groups; full-length curtains run along the side windows, a timber bar unit divides the salon from the dining area, and a spiral staircase leads up to the flybridge. Below deck are a master cabin with portholes, mirrored headboard, vanity and an ensuite with separate shower stall and bidet, a further double cabin, and a twin.

The layout suits two families or a group of friends sharing cabins, with a jet ski and towables carried on board.
