Mahalo

A flybridge is an extra room with a view, and on Mahalo it is where a day at anchor off the Italian coast is likely to happen: open air, wide sightlines, space for the whole party rather than a squeezed cockpit. Mulder built her in 2016, a 30-metre motor yacht that carries that upper deck as one of her defining features.

Build and provenance

Mulder built Mahalo, model Mulder 98, as a monohull motor yacht delivered in 2016. She carries a beam of 6.8 metres across her 30-metre length, with 161 gross tonnes of volume built into that hull. For a buyer, those figures set the scale of the space available on board before a single cabin is described.

Layout and accommodation

Eight guests sleep across four cabins, with the flybridge adding a further deck of open living space above the interior. That layout suits a family or group who want somewhere to spread out during the day and retreat to cabins purely to sleep.

Performance and engineering

Two 1,650 hp Caterpillar C32 engines give Mahalo a 12.5-knot cruise and a 21-knot top speed, enough power to make a longer run along the Italian coast quick rather than a full day's commitment. Zero-speed stabilisers hold her steady at anchor, which matters most on the evenings spent at the flybridge rather than under way.

On deck and at anchor

The flybridge is the main deck space at anchor, set apart from movement through the saloon below. It gives Mahalo a dedicated space for meals, drinks or simply watching the Italian coastline, away from the business of moving around the boat.

Where she lies and how to see her

Mahalo lies in Italy, and a viewing can be arranged through Boatcrowd, who will be there for it. Once an offer on her is accepted, survey and sea trial follow before handover completes the sale.
