The Aegean Explorer 26m Hull #2 is a purpose-built expedition yacht featuring a displacement steel hull and aluminum superstructure, engineered for durability and stability in serious blue-water conditions [1][2]. Its design prioritizes long-range capability over speed, with a 6.9m beam and 187 GT internal volume that enables generous interior spaces and six guest cabins, including three full-beam master suites located on different decks [1][3]. The main deck saloon features large windows, warm oak furniture, and stainless steel accents, while the galley is equipped with high-end Siemens appliances [1][6].
On the water, the yacht is powered by twin 650hp MAN D2676 LE425 engines, delivering a maximum speed of 12.5–13 knots and a cruising speed of 10.5–11 knots [1][5]. With a fuel capacity of 15,700–16,380 liters, it achieves an impressive range of 3,500 nautical miles at 9–11 knots, making it suitable for transatlantic crossings and remote destinations [1][3]. CMC stabilizers and a hydraulic platform for a 4.5m Capelli RIB tender enhance stability and water access, while the 2.04–2.24m draft balances seakeeping with moderate anchorage flexibility [1][3].
Comfort and livability are standout features, with 12 guests accommodated across six ensuite cabins, 10 toilets, and 10 showers, supported by a Zero Salt 350 LPH watermaker and twin 35kW Kohler generators [1]. Crew privacy is ensured through four separate cabins, including captain’s quarters, separated from guest areas [1][2]. At €5,650,000, the yacht offers strong value for buyers seeking a durable, long-range explorer with luxury accommodations, though its modest speed and draft may limit some use cases [1][5].
