ASAHI

ASAHI is a multi-award-winning 56-metre sailing yacht built by the esteemed Italian shipyard Perini Navi in 2009, crowned Best Sailing Yacht 45m+ at the World Superyacht Awards. The yacht represents the seventh superyacht in Perini Navi's highly successful 56-metre sailing series, joining distinguished sister ships including Burrasca, Santa Maria (now Zenji), Rosehearty, Selene, Salute, and Silvana. Designed by the renowned Ron Holland and Perini Navi's in-house naval architecture team, ASAHI marked a departure toward ultra-light, performance-oriented design with her streamlined full-aluminium hull construction.

Following a comprehensive 2023 refit, ASAHI presents in impeccable condition with a freshly repainted hull and stern, new teak decking, and an updated galley alongside refined interior refinements. Her contemporary interiors were designed by sought-after designer Remi Tessier, whose minimal aesthetic in neutral tones creates a serene, sophisticated atmosphere throughout. Teak blends with distinctive woods such as Macassar, ebony, and wengè, complemented by rich leather textures that establish a natural and soothing feel. The accommodation comprises six cabins sleeping up to twelve guests, including a full-beam master suite on the lower deck aft with an offset king bed, generous wardrobe space, and a spa-like bathroom. Two VIP double cabins and three additional twin cabins provide flexible configurations ideal for families, groups, and corporate gatherings.

On deck, ASAHI offers exceptional outdoor living with a vast cockpit perfectly suited for entertaining and al fresco dining while under sail. An extensive sundeck and flybridge platform provide superior vantage points for surveying the surroundings, entertaining, and sunbathing. A 2-metre hydraulic swim platform provides seamless water access, complemented by an impressive array of water toys and an RYA water sports centre that enhance the guest experience. The yacht's performance credentials are equally compelling, with a maximum speed of 16 knots and an impressive 4,000-nautical-mile cruising range, enabling extended Mediterranean voyages with minimal time spent transiting.

Her 499-tonne displacement and 3.8-metre draft are well-balanced with an 11.5-metre beam, creating a notably spacious platform for extended cruising. ASAHI accommodates up to twelve cruising guests supported by a professional crew of ten dedicated to delivering memorable experiences both on board and ashore. Presently based in the Western Mediterranean and actively taking bookings, ASAHI charter represents an exceptional opportunity to experience world-class sailing combined with contemporary luxury and meticulous crew service.
