10 September 2014 • Written by Malcolm MacLean

Word arrives from Bernard Gallay Yacht Brokerage of a €2.4 million price reduction on their listing for sale, the 46.3 metre superyacht Chantal, an elegant long-range motor yacht.

Built in steel by US yard Nylen, Chantal was delivered in 1984 and underwent a full refit and upgrade in 2013. Formerly known as* Chantal Ma Vie*, her relaxing, comfortable interior is by Lou Benskey of Global Marine and her exterior was styled by James S Krogen.

A successful charter vessel, this expedition yacht has three spacious decks, a cockpit Jacuzzi and a wide range of water toys. Accommodation is for up to 12 guests in five staterooms consisting of a master suite, three doubles and a twin plus two Pullman berths, all with en suite bathroom facilities. She also accommodates eight crew in four cabins.

Chantal's twin 650hp Cummins diesel engines underwent a full overhaul in 2014. She has a trans-oceanic range of 5,400 nautical miles at 13 knots.

Lying in Moscow, Russia, Chantal is now down from €7.9 million to €5.5 million.
