In 2007 CRN built her in Ancona as something of an experiment, crossing its older 128-foot model with features from the yard's 54-metre displacement yachts, according to Denison. Her lines and her rooms both come from Zuccon International Project; the rooms are done in cherry, with cream fabrics and a few red accents. She had a refit in 2017 and a fresh round of interior work in 2024.

The reason to book her is in the owner's cabin. A section of the hull side folds down into a balcony, and on it stands a freestanding bathtub, so a bath can be taken almost at sea level, looking straight out over the anchorage. The window beside it can be switched from clear to opaque. This main-deck suite runs from one side of the yacht to the other and comes with a dressing room you can walk into and a little office alongside. Below it, the four guest cabins include two VIPs.

Fitness is the second reason. The gym amidships has a treadmill, a bike and a Kinesis machine, and leads straight into a sauna lined with cedar. Evenings can end at the movies: on the top deck a 70-inch screen drops down for films in the open air, with the jacuzzi and the bar a few steps away. On the upper deck, a covered table seats ten for dinner outside.

Days on the water are well served. For trips ashore and for skiing behind, a Boston Whaler of almost ten metres with 600 hp outboards comes along, while the yacht itself carries Seabobs, paddleboards, kayaks and a couple of jet skis, plus two eBikes for the islands. Golfers can practise their swing from the deck, aiming at a floating green with balls that break down in the sea. Her Greek charter licence lets trips begin and end in Greece, where she spends the summer.

She is a good match for a group of up to ten who want a slow, comfortable week in Greece with a gym, a sauna and a bath with a view. At a 12-knot cruise she is not the yacht for covering long distances every day, and anyone who wants a light, minimalist interior will find her decor too traditional.
