AES Yacht Custom 35M モーターヨット

Seven crew looking after twelve guests is a ratio that tells you this is a yacht meant to be run properly rather than skeleton-staffed. AES Yacht delivered the AES Yacht Custom 35M in 2024, enabling an owner to cross open water without planning a fuel stop.

Build and provenance

Steel and aluminium construction, with teak decks throughout, is built for range and durability rather than outright speed. Hot Lab designed both her exterior and interior, and the AES Yacht Custom 35M carries RINA classification as a commercial, charter-ready vessel, paperwork that keeps her options open even when she is bought to run privately.

Layout and accommodation

Twelve guests sleep across five en-suite cabins, with a full-beam owner's suite forward on the main deck and four further cabins, two VIP doubles and two twins, amidships on the lower deck. Seven crew work from four cabins of their own: the captain by the wheelhouse on the bridge deck, three bunk cabins forward on the lower deck, and a crew mess with its own laundry, an arrangement that keeps a professional crew separate from the guest spaces.

Performance and engineering

Two 800 hp MAN engines give the AES Yacht Custom 35M a cruising speed of 11.5 knots and a top speed of 14, modest figures that prioritise efficiency. Zero-speed and underway fin stabilisers hold her steady both at rest and on passage, and at a beam of 7.6 metres and a draught of 2.13 metres, she carries the proportions of a yacht built to cross open water rather than hug a coastline.

On deck and at anchor

On deck, a jacuzzi sits on the sundeck, a swimming platform and a balcony open her to the water at anchor, and the beach club adds a lounging space of its own. Air conditioning and WiFi run throughout, a skylounge and sunpads extend the living space upward, and bow and stern thrusters, a watermaker and underwater lighting round out a practical fit-out.

Where she lies and how to see her

She lies in Tuzla, near Istanbul in Turkey. Boatcrowd organises viewings there and is present at each one, and once an offer is accepted a survey and sea trial follow before the sale closes.
