NINA | 2008

Best for: groups of friends seeking speed and style, with couples or small families a close second.

NINA is a 23.7-metre Alfamarine open motor yacht built in 2008, and her defining feature is raw, exhilarating performance: three Caterpillar engines producing 1,800 hp each, paired with Arneson surface propellers, push her to a cruising speed of 35 knots and a top speed of 40. On the water she is genuinely fast, and that shapes every day aboard.

She accommodates up to seven guests across three cabins, including a master cabin that feels generous well beyond her length. The panoramic main salon is fully air-conditioned with large windows and a sliding steel door that opens her up to the Mediterranean air, while an electric hard-top gives you full control of sun and shade on deck. The crew galley is entirely separate from guest areas, so privacy is built into the layout rather than managed around it. A jet tender, Seabob, wakeboard, and donut keep pace with the energy she sets. Captain Alex Gallardo and one crew member handle everything, leaving guests free to focus on the coastline and the speed.
