ALHAMBRA

Alhambra is a 35.42-metre steel motor yacht built by Feadship in 1970 and substantially refitted in 2021. Her exterior was penned by De Voogt and her interiors reworked by Anita Unger, giving a vessel of considerable age a contemporary domestic character. With a gross tonnage of 178 and twin GM engines, she cruises at 11 knots with a range of approximately 2,879 nautical miles.

She carries 10 guests across 5 cabins with a crew of 6, making her a practical choice for a single family or close-knit group seeking the Feadship pedigree in a more intimate package. Alhambra charters across the western and central Mediterranean, covering the French Riviera, Amalfi Coast, Sardinia, Corsica, Croatia, and Montenegro. She is not suited to guests expecting the amenity volume of a larger or newer vessel, nor to those for whom high speed or long Atlantic passages are a priority.

Her key distinction is provenance: a Feadship hull built to last, now modernised for contemporary use. The 2021 refit addressed interiors and systems, and a vessel of this construction — Dutch steel, full displacement — carries a robustness that production yachts of similar length rarely match. At-anchor stabilisers reduce roll in anchorages, a meaningful comfort feature on a yacht of this beam.

Water sports are available in a focused selection: Seabobs, a jet ski, paddleboard, inflatable canoe, and fishing and snorkelling equipment. The deck layout is suited to relaxed cruising and quiet anchorages rather than a programme of high-energy activity. A crane assists with tender deployment. For guests who value craftsmanship and charter-region flexibility along the Mediterranean coast, Alhambra offers a considered option.

The provisional rating is based on available public data, reflecting acceptable standards across safety documentation, maintenance records, and operational protocols.
