Drawn by the acclaimed Francesco Paszkowski, PARA BELLVM’s exterior profile cuts a commanding figure, with an angular and purposeful design that reflects the strength and intent of a true expedition yacht. Her steel hull and aluminium superstructure form a robust and seaworthy platform, engineered for efficient long-range cruising across a variety of conditions.
Twin 1,301 Hp Caterpillar engines provide her with a top speed of 15 knots and a cruising speed of 12 knots. She boasts an impressive range of 5,400 nautical miles when travelling at an economical speed of 9 knots. The inclusion of Naiad non-retractable electrohydraulic stabilisers ensures exceptional comfort, even in more challenging sea conditions.
Designed for those who value both capability and comfort, PARA BELLVM offers a thoughtful balance of functionality and refined living with a generous suite of lifestyle features across her four expansive decks. The sundeck sets the tone with sun loungers forward, a sit-up bar and lounge area at midship, and a large dining table for 12 guests aft. A jacuzzi flanked by sun pads to port and starboard provides an ideal setting for moments of calm.
On the upper deck, a generous lounge area aft provides a relaxed setting for enjoying the view or gathering over drinks, while a cinema room just inside offers a more immersive space for evening entertainment. Exterior dining for ten offers a shaded setting for lunch or dinner with a view, while forward of the bridge, additional storage and a telescopic crane allow for the handling of smaller tenders or toys—keeping deck spaces clean and uncluttered.
The main deck is designed around versatility and connection to the sea. At the stern, a striking infinity pool provides a focal point, flanked by loose furnishings and wide-open views. This area, also used for tender storage, includes a recessed crane for launching the yacht’s 8.5-metre XO chase tender. Amidships, a well-positioned bar anchors a spacious lounge setting, leading into the open-plan main salon.
Below, the beach club opens directly onto the water with a fold-down terrace and shaded lounge. Sun loungers provide a comfortable spot to relax, and the swim platform provides easy access to her extensive collection of toys and tenders.
Inside, the hand of renowned Italian designer Antonio Citterio is immediately evident. Soft textures, architectural woodwork and floor-to-ceiling windows give the interiors a grounded, elegant ambience that feels both contemporary and timeless.
Accommodation is configured for 10+2 guests across five cabins with further room to accommodate four guests in two convertible cabins, providing a flexible layout designed to adapt to different cruising parties. The full-beam Master suite on the main deck includes a king-sized bed, walk-in wardrobe, ensuite, and private balcony. Adjacent, the Owner’s lounge doubles as a TV room or additional double cabin with its own ensuite and large window. On the lower deck, two VIP cabins with king beds are joined by two convertible twin cabins—each with a pullman and ensuite. A dedicated gym at the stern can also be set up as an additional guest cabin, offering yet more adaptability for families or larger groups. She is serviced by a crew of up to 9.
