Yacht Description
Beach club first. AURELIA is a 122ft Heesen motor yacht built in 2011 and refit in 2025, set up for guests who want easy water time without turning the swim platform into a traffic jam. Proper beach club. Proper swim deck.
Outdoor living works. The sundeck is a serious hangout with a bar and a Teppanyaki grill, plus a diving board when someone decides lunch needs an encore. There is also space forward for stretching out on the sunpads.
Toys with intent. You get a 10m Pascoe SY9 custom tender (rebuilt, and capable of up to 46 knots) for fast hops, plus a Seadoo Custom RXP X 300R Jet Ski, two Seabob F5 S units, and a custom Fun Air water slide from the upper deck for full-commitment afternoons.
Eight guests, four cabins. She sleeps 8 in 4 cabins, including a full-beam, main-deck master with a king bed and en-suite with a bath, plus two queen VIPs and a twin cabin below. Full air conditioning and stabilizers at anchor and underway keep things civil.
Broker Reviews
Onboard visit
A sporty motor yacht built around a sports-car and horse-racing theme — each cabin is styled after a different marque, think Ferrari, Aston Martin, and Alfa Romeo. She's quick too, with a top speed of 30 knots, and a recent major refit has her looking superb. The captain has been aboard since she was built in 2011, so the crew know her inside out.

AURELIA is almost brand new and comes loaded with an impressive lineup of water toys — plenty to keep everyone entertained. She's run by a professional crew of three under Captain John, and it's easy to see why she books up fast each season. Reach out early to secure your dates.
