ALTHEA
Experience the epitome of timeless elegance combined with modern technology aboard ALTHEA, a 37.5-meter schooner meticulously crafted by Aegean Builders to and designed by Andrew Winch. Launched in 1993, this steel-hulled yacht masterfully combines classic nautical design with contemporary comforts, making her an ideal vessel for both seasoned adventurers and luxury connoisseurs.
ALTHEA is engineered for global exploration. Her schooner rig and generous fuel capacity equip her for extended voyages across the world's oceans—be it the Atlantic, Pacific, or Mediterranean seas. Complementing her robust sailing capabilities is a lavish interior that has been thoughtfully maintained and updated. A significant refit in 2009, along with continuous enhancements—the latest in 2021—ensure that she remains a sanctuary of style and comfort at sea. The dedicated care of her owners and a professional crew of five have preserved her as a haven of luxury and capability.
Accommodating up to 11 guests, ALTHEA features five elegantly appointed staterooms, each with an ensuite bathroom. The owner's suite is a full-width stateroom that epitomizes comfort and luxury. It boasts a king-size bed, a walk-in wardrobe, and dedicated office space, providing a private retreat for relaxation. For guests, there are two double staterooms, one twin stateroom with an additional pullman berth, and one single stateroom also equipped with a pullman berth. Each room is tastefully decorated in soft wood tones and cream colours, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that enhances the onboard experience.
On deck, ALTHEA offers expansive spaces designed for both relaxation and entertainment. The main and upper decks are perfect for al fresco dining, sunbathing, and leisurely activities. Teak-laid surfaces add a touch of classic elegance, while versatile seating areas can effortlessly transition from casual lounging to formal dining, catering to a variety of guest preferences. Whether you're enjoying a sunrise breakfast or a sunset dinner, the yacht's outdoor spaces provide the perfect backdrop for memorable moments.
Special Features :
- Robust construction: Steel hull and aluminum superstructure.
