News from Camper & Nicholsons that Gaston Lees-Buckley has jointly listed for sale with Worth Avenue Yachts the recently launched 43.63 metre hybrid motor yacht Silver Wind.
Built in composite by Italian superyacht yard ISA to RINA class and launched in June 2014, her bold and sporty exterior styling comes from Andrea Vallicelli while interior design is by design team Nuvolari Leonard. Accommodation is for up to 10 guests comprising a main deck master suite, VIP stateroom and three double cabins, all with en suite facilities. Notable outdoor living spaces include her spacious sun deck and large beach area with a swim platform.
Together with a traditional propulsion system consisting of two MTU 16V 4000 M93L diesel engines driving two Rolls-Royce KaMeWa water jets, the yacht runs at a maximum speed of 32 knots and a cruising speed of 26 knots, and is equipped with a hybrid propulsion system supplied by Siemens. In hybrid mode, cruising at 8 knots with the two main engines off, the total fuel consumption is 90 litres per hour for a range of 2,600 nautical miles. In addition to reducing engine and generator hours, thus postponing maintenance needs, this hybrid setup also reduces fuel consumption, gas emissions and noise levels.
Silver Wind is asking €21,000,000.
