Alilea 机动游艇

A crew of one for eight guests says plenty about the way Alilea is meant to be run: lightly staffed, owner-driven, built for short hops rather than a full-service season. Van der Heijden launched her in 2019 as a 24-metre custom motor yacht, and she lies today in Roses, Spain.

Build and provenance

She is built entirely of aluminium, a material choice that keeps her light for her size and suits the fast running her engines are capable of. Her design is custom rather than drawn from a production line, with an interior finished specifically for her rather than adapted from a standard layout. Large areas of glass run around her exterior, giving her wide views out rather than the smaller windows of an older flybridge design.

Layout and accommodation

Eight guests sleep across four cabins, with a single crew member aboard to run her day to day, a ratio suited to an owner who wants Alilea operated simply rather than staffed like a larger charter yacht. Her flybridge adds a second living level open to the sky, with a jacuzzi and deck space up top that put more of the boat outdoors than a single-level layout would.

Performance and engineering

Twin 1,200 hp MAN engines give Alilea a top speed of 34 knots, enough for a fast point-to-point run rather than a long, slow passage. A beam of 5.95 metres and a draft of 1.1 metres keep her manageable close to shore, and at 41 gross tonnes she is light enough for that speed without oversized machinery.

Where she lies and how to see her

Alilea lies in Roses, Spain. Boatcrowd sets up viewings and is present for them, and a survey and sea trial follow once an offer on her is accepted.
