Overview
About this vessel
A striking example of the ILUMEN 28M range, M/Y ZALANKA was launched in 2018 and showcases the shipyard's distinctive blend of modern performance, Italian design and refined luxury. A true 5-cabin pocket superyacht, she offers exceptional volume and accommodation for her size--making her equally suited to relaxed family cruising and sophisticated entertaining.
Constructed with an advanced glass and carbon fibre resin epoxy hull and superstructure, ZALANKA delivers an impressive combination of strength, efficiency and contemporary style. She is powered by twin MAN V8 1200 engines and propelled via Reinjets transmissions, providing exhilarating performance and confident handling, supported by excellent onboard redundancy including 2 x Fischer Panda 45i generators (36kW).
ZALANKA features exterior styling by Alberto Mancini Yacht Design and interior architecture by Luca Catino. The interiors are elegant and calming--contrasting rich Amara Ebony with light oak to create a modern monochrome palette, elevated by the natural patterning of the timber grain. Back-lit white onyx and taupe Silk Georgette marble further enhance the clean, refined atmosphere throughout the guest areas.
ZALANKA is a one-owner yacht from new, owned by a very experienced gentleman who is now retiring from yachting, making this a genuine and motivated sale. Although designed and equipped with commercial compliance in mind, she has only ever been used privately (typically 4-6 months per year) and has been wintered in San Remo for the balance of the year.
ZALANKA is intelligently configured to provide excellent privacy, comfort and versatility.
Main Deck includes a contemporary saloon and dining area, fully equipped galley, day head, full-beam Master suite with ensuite, sofa area and direct access forward to the bow relaxation zone.
Lower Deck includes 2 x VIP cabins with ensuite bathrooms, 1 x Guest cabin with private bathroom, Studio cabin (convertible to an additional guest cabin), with toilet.
The flybridge is a standout feature of the ILUMEN design, offering a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle: Jacuzzi for 4 guests with surrounding sunpads, al fresco dining table and bar, sliding rooftop--perfect for entertaining under the stars.
With a large, well-equipped garage and an efficient tender handling system, ZALANKA is ideal for active cruising: Williams SportJet 395 tender, Sea-Doo Spark jetski, 2 x Seabobs, tender/toys launched via internal garage crane system, fold-down transom creates an extended swim platform at water level.
ZALANKA has been privately owned and lightly used and has never been chartered, presenting an outstanding opportunity to acquire a well-kept ILUMEN 28M in genuine owner condition. The build was managed by a trusted colleague on behalf of an experienced owner and subject to completion of the relevant documentation, she can be placed into commercial charter. A major advantage is that Andrea Agrusta (NavalHEAD) who was involved in the yacht's design and acted as the owner's representative during construction, knows the vessel intimately and can personally vouch for her quality and condition. We also have direct access to both the owner and the captain, and I met the long-term skipper (over 20 years with the owner). Inspections can be arranged by appointment.
