Astilleros de Mallorca 44.6m 1977 Yacht for Sale – 2022 Refitted, Marshall Islands, Nice France

Offered for sale in Nice, France, this Astilleros de Mallorca S.A. custom motor yacht (44.68m), delivered in 1977 and comprehensively refitted in 2022, presents a rare opportunity to acquire a proven long-range displacement yacht built in an era known for robust engineering and uncompromising construction standards. With classic pedigree design input from Camper & Nicholsons and exterior styling by Navirex s.r.l. in collaboration with Charles E. Nicholson, she offers timeless proportions, dependable passagemaking capability, and modernized systems to support confident ownership today.

Construction, Hull Form & Proven Seakeeping
Built with a steel displacement hull featuring a bulbous bow and an aluminium superstructure, she is engineered for stability, comfort, and longevity. Spanning three full decks with an internal volume of 302 GT, she measures 7.15m beam and 2.8m draft, with an approximate displacement of 280 tonnes. Teak-laid decks enhance both aesthetics and practicality. Her exterior presentation—grey hull, white superstructure, and black anti-fouling—delivers a refined, understated look that remains elegant and purposeful in today’s market.

Engines, Speed & Long-Range Efficiency
Propulsion is provided by twin MTU 12V4000 diesel engines, each producing 1,050 hp (total 2,100 hp) through a twin-screw configuration. She cruises comfortably at 12 knots with a maximum speed of 14 knots—ideal for displacement operation where comfort and economy matter most. With 43,000L fuel capacity, she offers an impressive range of approximately 3,500 nautical miles at 10 knots, supporting long passages and remote cruising plans. Freshwater capacity is 7,600L, enabling excellent onboard autonomy.

Thrusters, Stabilizers & Handling Confidence
A Hydrosta bow thruster improves maneuverability in tight marinas and during docking, while stabilizers operating both underway and at anchor significantly enhance comfort by reducing roll in varying sea states. The engineering layout is professional-grade, supporting dependable operation and practical maintenance access. Naturally moderated noise and vibration levels—supported by the displacement hull form and engine installation—create a quieter onboard experience for guests.

2022 Refit – Modernised Ownership Readiness
The comprehensive 2022 refit addressed key mechanical, structural, and system-related elements, reinforcing confidence in current condition and forward reliability. This modernization supports survey outcomes, improves insurability profiles, and reduces the likelihood of immediate capital expenditure following acquisition.

Guest Accommodation – 10 Guests in 5 Cabins
The yacht accommodates up to 10 guests in five cabins, with dedicated crew quarters for up to nine crew in five cabins, including a separate captain’s cabin. The full-beam master suite is located forward on the main deck and benefits from the absence of side decks—delivering exceptional width, enhanced natural light, a large en-suite bathroom, and a walk-in wardrobe. Below deck, four guest cabins include two doubles and two twins, with each twin featuring an additional Pullman berth for flexible sleeping arrangements. All guest cabins are en-suite, ensuring privacy and comfort for all onboard.

Interior Living – Bright Volume with Classic Character
The main deck lounge is notably spacious—again enhanced by the absence of side decks—finished with dark wood flooring contrasted by light furnishings and cabinetry to create a bright, contemporary feel. A dedicated dining area seats up to 10 guests and is positioned adjacent to the galley for efficient service. The upper deck sky lounge provides a more relaxed social environment with panoramic views, ideal for evening gatherings or quieter daytime retreat. Adjacent sits the wheelhouse with essential navigation and professional control equipment. Air conditioning is installed throughout, and onboard Wi-Fi supports connectivity for both guests and crew.

Exterior Decks, Toys & Tender-Carrying Capacity
The expansive sun deck is optimized for sunbathing, casual dining, and relaxed outdoor living. The large boat deck can carry a primary tender up to 6.5m, a secondary 3.5m RIB, and two jet skis without compromising guest areas. Additional storage includes two sailing dinghies located at the bow, a transom garage for water toys, and a substantial port-side forward locker capable of housing a Polaris FIB or alternatively accommodating jet skis as required. A swim platform enhances water access for swimming and tender operations.

Flag, Transaction & Buyer Process
Registered under the Marshall Islands flag, the yacht benefits from a widely recognized registration framework. Inspections and sea trials can be arranged for serious buyers, with a standard sales process anticipated: deposit placement, survey review, negotiation (where applicable), and structured escrow closing. Delivery and handover logistics can be coordinated to align with the buyer’s cruising plans.
