Cantiere Delle Marche Darwin 102
Overview
About this vessel
This 31.09m CANTIERE DELLE MARCHE DARWIN 102 is one best priced modern explorer yachts for sale in this segment of the market. This Expedition-type motor yacht was launched in 2015 in Italy and features vast volumes thanks to her beam of 7.43m providing a volume of 244 GT. Built on a full-displacement steel hull and aluminium superstructure, this Tri-deck Explorer yacht boasts naval architecture and exterior design by the innovative Italian engineering firm Hydro Tec. She is hull #1 in the popular CANTIERE DELLE MARCHE DARWIN 102 series (series that keeps on being the yard s best seller), having been custom-built for an experienced Owner with a project manager on site for the duration of the entire build overseeing all aspects of the construction. After launching and delivery, she then cruised extensively in the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Mexico and the Pacific. Her shore power converters and substantial tender make her a true global cruiser. She has been professionally maintained since new with a full-time crew and benefitted from a comprehensive refit in 2023. Besides the technical refit comprising significant service on main components, an extensive interior refitting created a convenient crew pantry on the main deck and turned the main salon in an extremely enjoyable space for dining and relaxing. The technical standards, that have made CdM a benchmark in its sector, have been maintained: 12mm steel hull, cupronickel piping, independent rudders, automatic generator parallel, electric fins stabilizers, as well as wastewater treatment systems for black, gray, and bilge waters that have been adapted from the industry of work ships and designed to be used 24/365. Powered by twin 680 Hp Caterpillar diesel engines, which give her a top speed of 13 knots, she cruises at 10 knots for a considerable range exceeding 3,800 nautical miles thanks to her fuel capacity of 40,000 litres. The Owner focused on spending the majority of time outside and in the water, which is why the lazarette area is a custom dive area with storage for tanks, masks, fins, wetsuits, 3 SeaBobs with the highlight being a Nitrox dive compressor. Quick connect dive tanks fill station on the swim platform and hydraulic dive platform allow easy access into the water. Also, a 2-ton crane can launch 6m+ (19 +) tender. She has a best-in-class sundeck with full bar, BBQ grill, Jacuzzi, lounge area & dining/sitting area. Both the aft deck and upper aft deck space have formal dining spaces with tables that seat up to 12 guests. Guests can also enjoy their time at sea sunbathing on the foredeck or lounging on the sundeck. The interiors are designed by the Mexican interior architect Simon Hamui, able to give an Explorer twist to salons and cabins thanks to a wise blend of liquidambar timber (also called sweetgum), hand-stitched leathers drawers and cabinets, resembling vintage Louis Vuitton wardrobe trunks, antique brass faucets and an elegant choice of loose furniture. Both her main saloon and sky lounge have floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that can be completely moved to the side thus combining interior & exterior spaces into one. Inviting furniture, custom interior decor, brass fixtures, and large windows give her an inviting feel. This CANTIERE DELLE MARCHE DARWIN 102 comfortably sleeps up to 12 guests in en-suite 5 cabins plus crew accommodations in 4 cabins for 7 including a Captain s cabin on the upper deck behind the wheelhouse, which is rare for a 100ft yacht. The rest of crew cabins are located forward of the galley on the main deck. The 5 guest cabins are located on the lower deck, with the Owner s cabin forward, 2 VIP cabins aft and 2 twin guest cabins (each with Pullmans) amidships. This CANTIERE DELLE MARCHE DARWIN 102 Tri-deck yacht has been privately owned her entire life, although she would also do extremely well on the charter market. She is presented in turnkey condition Viewings are strongly encouraged !
