Second 26m Aegean Explorer Hekate delivered ahead of Cannes Yachting Festival

22 August 2024 • Written by Holly Margerrison

Bodrum-based shipyard Aegean Yacht has delivered the second unit in its 26-metre Aegean Explorer series. Hekate will be showcased at the Cannes Yachting Festival.

The 187GT explorer yacht is built in steel and aluminium and has been designed and engineered entirely in-house as a "go-everywhere" yacht. The yacht boasts a simple exterior with a dual-tone paint job disguising her height and volume.

The interior is described as clean and elegant, made up of materials including silky matte-finished limewashed oak, white lacquer, and stainless steel touches.

The upper deck master suite.

Standard accommodation configuration allows for 12 guests in six cabins including three full-beam master suites. The upper deck master suite is a particular highlight, featuring a private terrace with seating and sunbathing areas, customisable to the owner's preferences. There are a further two twin cabins and a VIP suite on the lower deck, all designed to create a luxurious and relaxing atmosphere.

Guests can make the most of the relaxing external areas, which include the bridge deck forward and aft of the sky lounge, as well as the aft deck and swim platform.

Power derives from a pair of 650 HP MAN engines which enable her to achieve a top speed of 12.7 knots and a range of 3,500 nautical miles at economic cruising speed.

Hekate is currently for sale with Denison Yachting. The first hull, named Ukiel, was delivered in November 2023.
