Far Niente

Ocean Alexander delivered Far Niente in 2018, a hundred-foot flybridge motor yacht on a seven-metre beam. She sleeps ten guests across five cabins, with a flybridge deck raising a second entertaining level above the main saloon.

Build and provenance

She is a monohull, built by Ocean Alexander as a flybridge motor yacht and delivered in 2018. At thirty-one metres in length, a hundred feet on paper, she carries a seven-metre beam along her full length, the width a flybridge hull of this size needs to hold a raised deck without narrowing the accommodation below.

Layout and accommodation

Ten guests sleep aboard Far Niente across five cabins, a count suited to an extended family or two couples travelling together without doubling anyone up. The flybridge deck sits apart from the cabins, giving a second gathering space above the main saloon for the hours guests spend outside.

Performance and engineering

Far Niente cruises at twenty-two knots and reaches twenty-seven knots at full throttle, speeds that suit coastal routes and island-hopping more than long open-water passages. For a buyer, that is a yacht built to be used often along a coastline rather than saved for the occasional crossing.

Where she lies and how to see her

Far Niente lies in Fort Lauderdale, in the United States. Boatcrowd sets up a viewing there and is present for it, and once an offer is accepted, the survey and sea trial follow before anything closes.
