Ice

A 4,000 nautical mile range is what sets Ice apart from a coastal motor yacht: at 10 knots cruise, her twin 410 hp Cummins diesels are built to cover distance, not to win a straight-line dash. Soyaslan Marine built her in steel in 2024, as a full-displacement explorer rather than a planing cruiser.

Build and provenance

Her hull is steel, the material a builder reaches for when the job is distance and durability rather than outright speed. Interiors are by Baz Design, laid out to hold up through weeks aboard rather than a single weekend. New in 2024, she has not yet needed a refit, so her equipment list is still the one she launched with.

Layout and accommodation

Five staterooms take 10 guests, with the Owner's Stateroom on the main deck ahead of four further cabins on the lower deck. A crew of two look after the yacht.

Performance and engineering

Two 410 hp Cummins engines cruise Ice at 10 knots and reach 12 knots flat out, figures built around endurance rather than pace, matched to a 4,000 nautical mile range meant for ocean crossings rather than day trips. Stabilisers work at anchor as well as underway, and two 27kW Onan generators back the systems a long passage depends on. Her draft of 2.1 metres still keeps shallower anchorages within reach.

On deck and at anchor

A beach club opens her stern to the water, and the cranes aboard make it straightforward to launch tenders and toys for a day spent at anchor.

Where she lies and how to see her

Ice lies in Imperia, Italy. Boatcrowd shows her in person to every buyer who asks, and after an offer is accepted, a survey and sea trial come next, before she changes hands.
