Overview
About this vessel
A sport-fishing yacht must combine rugged, blue water construction with extended range and the comforts of a luxury yacht. Offshore fishing boats are expected to chase the Hemingway-worthy gamefish on all oceans!
With a lower second cockpit designed to sport a fishing chair with direct access to the crew quarter and transom compartment, the Selene 98 is designed precisely for that: offshore fishing without compromising any of the classic Selene luxuries and comfort. The 98 has an enormous cockpit ready for a tournament and more than enough room for a battling angler to swivel and maneuver. This extended cockpit is rigged with an offset fighting chair, rod holders, fish tanks, icemaker, all perfect for fishing around the world!
Based on the Selene 92 which was listed by Southern Boating as one of the Top Ten Long-Range Cruisers, the Selene 98 carries more than 23,000 liters of fuel giving enough range to reach remote Pacific islands. It features four staterooms, three guest cabins, a full-beam owner's cabin, a laundry room, and crew's quarters with two cabins and a mess area. The upper bridge is large and safe enough for a fast tender like a Boston Whaler or a Grady White and a RIB.
This model takes the concept of a fuel-efficient and seaworthy long-range yacht to a new level of luxury, competing directly with the finest European shipyards, with FRP construction requiring less maintenance than steel or aluminum. Equipped with twin 600 HP engines from MTU's 60 series, the only limit is the horizon, ideal for endless voyages and pelagic fishing in the remotest oceans.
