La Creme Motor Yacht

A spare cabin tucked into the garage, complete with a bathroom of its own, says something about how La Creme was set up to run: for owners who keep a full crew close rather than simply carry guests. Arcadia delivered her in 2023, semi-custom to her original specification, and she is described as being in excellent condition, with low engine hours, since then.

Build and provenance

Her hull and superstructure are both built in glass reinforced plastic, a monohull running to 25 metres with a 7.18 metre beam and a draft of 1.45 metres. Twin pod drives and electric fin stabilisers, backed by an Interceptor trim system, are how she stays level under way, propulsion built into her from new rather than added to an older hull.

Layout and accommodation

Below deck, four cabins sleep eight guests: a 25 square metre master suite running the full beam, a VIP cabin forward, and two further cabins, each with its own en suite bathroom. Four crew look after the boat, and that spare berth in the garage gives them somewhere to work that never touches the guest layout above. On the aft deck, a lounge that closes in with sliding glass turns the same space into a shaded dining room in high sun or a closed room against the wind, without sending anyone below.

Performance and engineering

She cruises at 18 knots, a pace suited to a full day's passage rather than a short hop between anchorages. Two Kohler generators, rated at 28 kW and 20.5 kW, carry the house load, and solar panels adding around 3 kW take some of that draw off them, a detail that matters to an owner watching fuel burn at anchor as much as under way. Fuel and fresh water tanks provide substantial capacity, enough for a season without constant stops to refill.

Where she lies and how to see her

La Creme lies in Marmaris, Turkey. We arrange a viewing there and stay on hand throughout it, and once an offer is accepted, a survey and sea trial follow before anything is signed off.
