KALANI - CUSTOM FOR SALE

M/Y Kalani is a 25.05 m luxury motor yacht, constructed in France by Siccna and launched in 1972. Powered by twin Caterpillar diesel engines, she reaches 12 knots and offers a long-range capability of 2,500 nautical miles at economical speed. She welcomes up to seven guests across three ensuite cabins, while a professional chef—and, when needed, an additional hand—supplements her two permanent crew during the cruising season. With a gross tonnage of 92 and a 5.7-metre beam, she features teak decks atop a sturdy steel hull and superstructure, and is currently settled in a premium berth at Malta’s Grand Harbour Marina.

A genuinely seaworthy classic yacht, Kalani is admired for her graceful profile and chic, custom-designed interiors. Two pairs of stabilisers and full air conditioning heighten comfort underway and at anchor, and she proudly flies the British flag.
