Delta Marine's 53.8-metre motor yacht Helios 3 has been listed for sale with Stuart Larsen of Fraser

Delivered in 2012, Helios 3 was constructed in GRP to a complete design from the American yard's in-house team. In 2015, the motor yacht returned to Delta Marine for a "massive" refit from "top-to-bottom" according to her broker, along with a 4-metre extension to her hull and a 2.5-metre extension to her superstructure. 

The mammoth refit was completed in 2017, with her broker noting the cost to be in excess of $17 million, today estimated as a cost "well over $25 million."

Helios 3 is asking $28,900,000

Accommodation on board is for up to 16 guests in a "well-designed" seven cabin layout. An extensive full-beam owner's suite complete with walk-in wardrobe, sofa, dressing table, en suite with separate bath and shower, private office and a private aft deck with bar and lounge space is located on the bridge deck, in addition to a twin guest cabin with en suite. 

The remaining guest cabins are comprised of three queen-sized cabins and a twin with Pullman berth (that can also covert into a king-sized cabin) located on the lower deck, all with en suite. There is also a triple children's cabin which lies forward on the main deck. Meanwhile, there are quarters for a crew of 14.

Her interiors are "beautifully finished", according to her broker, characterised by a stylish combination of light woods, unique patterns and muted colour palette. 

Her main deck is home to a large main saloon fitted with "easy" chairs and sofas, a games table and  a bar in addition to a tasteful dining room with solid slab table seating 12. On this deck there is also a gym and a media room fitted with curved TV, board games and built-in wine cooler.

Outside, Helios 3  has plenty of social deck spaces to choose from. The hull extension is most noticeable on her expansive aft deck, which features love seats to starboard, a bar forward and a dining table for 16 guests aft, all protected from bad weather with sliding glass windows. 

Up on the sun deck, there is a U-shaped bar, teak dining table, sun loungers, two televisions and a bathroom with shower, in addition to a large central whirlpool. Closer to the water guests can enjoy the sizeable beach club, dive room, large swim platform and a garage with 5.8-metre tender. Easy access between decks in ensured thanks to a lift.

The 776GT yacht for sale is powered by twin Caterpillar 1650hp engines delivering a top speed of 16.8 knots, cruising speed of 13.5 knots and a range of 4,000 nautical miles at an economical speed of 11 knots. 

Helios 3 is asking $28,900,000. She is currently lying in West Palm Beach ahead of her attendance at the Palm Beach International Boat Show.
