PREFERENCE 19

PREFERENCE 19 represents the pinnacle of expedition-style motor yacht design, crafted by the acclaimed Turkish shipyard Tansu in 2011 and recently refitted in 2024 to the highest standards. At 36.4 meters, this award-winning explorer embodies a philosophy that celebrates open spaces and meticulous design detail, with naval architecture by Kerim Acar and styling developed entirely by Tansu's in-house design team. Her displacement steel hull and aluminium superstructure provide both durability and refinement, while her clean, loft-style interior aesthetic—featuring pale oak floors and crisp white epoxy walls—creates an inviting atmosphere that earned recognition with the ShowBoats Design Award for Interior Design in her class.

The yacht's layout prioritizes the guest experience with exceptional flexibility. Her main deck features a full-beam owner's suite, while below deck two double and two twin cabins, each ensuite, accommodate up to ten guests across five total staterooms. The cabins feature adaptable Pullman berths, allowing PREFERENCE 19 to serve various party compositions seamlessly. A professional crew of seven operates discreetly from forward quarters, ensuring service excellence without intrusion.

Externally, PREFERENCE 19 showcases the Mothership series' defining characteristic: expansive, multi-functional living areas. Her pronounced aft deck unfolds from a tender garage into a lively beach club complete with a DJ station and generous shaded lounging. The upper deck functions as an al fresco living room with integrated sunpads and optional bimini coverage, designed for both intimate relaxation and lively entertaining. An extended swim platform provides generous water access, complemented by a comprehensive array of water toys for active pursuits.

Powered by twin Caterpillar C-32 diesels, PREFERENCE 19 achieves a maximum speed of 16 knots with a comfortable cruising speed of 12-14 knots, delivering impressive long-range capability of approximately 1,750 nautical miles. The 2024 refit introduced zero-speed stabilizers and upgraded engineering systems, ensuring peak comfort and reliability for discerning charter clients. Her 225 gross tonnes and efficient design make her an ideal platform for Mediterranean exploration or extended Caribbean cruising. PREFERENCE 19 charter availability offers an unparalleled combination of expedition capability, refined comfort, and sophisticated design for those seeking a truly memorable superyacht experience.
