Originally delivered in 1988 by the Dutch shipyard Maaskant, SCINTILLA MARIS is a 45.6m (149.6ft) full-custom rebuilt expedition yacht with a thickened steel hull built to RINA classification. During an extensive four year rebuild at Damen Maaskant, SCINTILLA MARIS was stripped down to bare steel, fully modernised and rebuilt in the owner’s vision. Maintaining her original exterior lines shows off her heritage, while a step into the interior and technical spaces reveals a fully modernised expedition yacht capable of extensive autonomous cruising with a 9,000nm range at nine knots.
