The 32.5-metre Numarine 32XP explorer yacht Calliope has been sold in-house at Denison Yachting, with Alex G. Clarke representing the seller and Juno Prudhomm introducing the buyer.
Calliope was delivered in 2018 as the second hull from the Turkish yard's 32XP model, constructed in GRP to a complete design by Can Yalman with naval architecture by Umberto Tagliavini. At 300GT, her broker noted that Calliope is an "extremely capable pocket sized explorer", with the motor yacht also benefitting from only one owner since new who has maintained her with an "open check book".
Accommodation on board is for 10 guests across a five-cabin layout comprising a 30-square-metre master cabin forward on the main deck, two VIP cabins and two double cabins, all with en suite. Meanwhile, there are quarters for a crew of five across three cabins.
Calliope is characterised by her eye-catching blue hull, vertical bow and "rugged, hefty silhouette" with extensive angular windows. Inside, she is equally as striking; completely customised to her owner's preferences, her living spaces are adorned with a combination of marble, wood, leather and brass.
As specified by her owner, the usual sixth cabin on the 32XP model has instead been substituted for an extra sky lounge saloon and bar on Calliope's upper deck. This offers another entertaining or relaxing space on board, in addition to the "massive" main saloon with a large L-shaped sofa, love seat, television and separate formal dining space.
Outside, highlights include a large beach club with separate day head and ample storage for tenders and toys, and a spacious upper aft deck which is capable of storing a tender during long voyages. Her flybridge deck features a second helm station forward in addition to a large dining table and a comfortable sofa setting aft.
The motor yacht can reach a top speed of 14 knots, a cruising speed of 12 knots and a range of 4,000 nautical miles at nine knots. She has been designed for passage-making by night, with noise and vibration kept to a minimum. The sale also included her matching blue-hulled Axopar 29 tender and her Palm Beach RIB.
Calliope was asking $9,950,000.
