About Scintilla Maris
A single 2,000hp Marelli generator drives three Volvo hybrid propulsion units aboard Scintilla Maris, a diesel-electric system built for quiet, efficient running rather than outright speed. Damen Maaskant delivered her as a 46-metre explorer in 2023, and she is now offered for sale from Germany.
Build and provenance
She is a monohull motor yacht in the explorer style, 46 metres, or 150 feet, long, with a beam of 9 metres, a draught of 5.1 metres and 499 gross tonnes. Damen Maaskant built her in the Netherlands, delivering her in 2023.
Layout and accommodation
Ten guests sleep across five cabins, with a crew of eight aboard to look after them and run the yacht. A crew of eight for ten guests is close attention rather than a stretched team covering a full boat.
Performance and engineering
Her hybrid drivetrain gives her a 9-knot cruise and a 14-knot top speed, figures that favour range and quiet running over a fast passage, in keeping with an explorer built to go further rather than faster. The generator and propulsion units work together as one system, arranged for efficient cruising rather than a burst of top speed.
On deck and at anchor
A sun deck is the one listed outdoor space beyond her working decks, a place to be outside once she is anchored or moored.
Where she lies and how to see her
Scintilla Maris lies in Germany, and Boatcrowd can arrange a viewing there ahead of any offer. Once an offer is accepted, survey and sea trial follow before she changes hands.

Buying Costs
- Survey
- A buyer normally commissions a condition survey, and a sea trial, once an offer is accepted and before the sale becomes unconditional. The cost depends on her size and on where she is lifted, and it is the buyer who appoints the surveyor.
- Registration and flag
- She will be registered on a flag of the buyer's choosing, which carries its own fees and its own survey and crew requirements. Where the yacht is owned through a company, the shares rather than the vessel may change hands, which changes what is payable.
- VAT and import
- Whether VAT is due, and where, depends on the yacht's current status, her flag, the buyer's residency and where she is delivered. Where the seller has stated her VAT status, it is shown with the asking price on her page, and it is confirmed in writing before an offer is made.
- Running costs
- Crew, berthing, insurance, class and annual maintenance continue from the day she is yours. A yacht that is also chartered earns against them, and we will set out what her season has actually returned before you commit.
Estimated running costs for a yacht of her size are set out on the size page: What a yacht of 40 to 50 m costs to run.
