THE WELLESLEY - Oceanco FOR SALE

Launched by Oceanco in 1993, this 56m superyacht enjoyed a major reconstruction and extension at Sunrise Yachts in 2016, followed by a complete repaint over the 2020/21 winter. THE WELLESLEY stands out among motor yachts of her size, presenting some of the most generous open-air decks on a 56-meter—perfect for hosting family and friends in style.

Alfresco dining is offered on both the main deck and the sundeck, complemented by multiple zones for sunbathing and quiet relaxation. The expansive sundeck features a large jacuzzi—ideal for sociable afternoons at anchor and still discreet when berthed in port. This tri-deck luxury charter yacht blends outdoor glamour with effortless comfort.

Inside, the atmosphere echoes the elegance of Knightsbridge’s famed boutique grand hotel, The Wellesley. A timeless Art Deco aesthetic sets a refined yet welcoming tone. Accommodation for 12 includes two master suites—one on the lower deck and one on the upper deck—a main deck VIP, two twin cabins, and one double cabin, making her a versatile megayacht for family groups or couples.

A highlight on the upper deck is the Cigar Club Lounge, finished in sumptuous leathers and rich woodwork. At the water’s edge, THE WELLESLEY’s beach club delivers an exceptional sea-level experience, keeping guests intimately connected to the ocean.

She cruises smoothly at 12 knots, reaching a top speed of 16 knots.
