Unbridled, a 2009 191’ Trinity, is on the market with Northrop & Johnson for $24.95 million.

The superyacht is powered by twin 2,012 hp Caterpillar 3512B diesel engines, which will reportedly push it to a top speed of 16 knots. Unbridled can cruise at 13 knots, or dial it back a bit to 12 knots for a range of around 3,569 nautical miles considering a 10 percent reserve. Island hop in the Caribbean or take the trip of a lifetime on an extended South American coastline cruise. The Caterpillar engines turn a Reintjes WAF 743 K31 gear box (gear ratio 3.52:1) that connects to 6-inch Aqualoy HS-22 with Michigan Wheel 5-blade propellers. Some of the vessel’s navigation equipment includes:

• Magnetic compass Anschutz

Guests can relax on the sundeck and catch a few rays on multiple sun pads, or melt away stress in the eight-person Jacuzzi tub while sipping on a beverage from the full bar. Unbridled’s sundeck also has gym equipment for guests who wish to get in a morning workout before a day on the salt. The foredeck is a great spot to sit under an umbrella and enjoy a book or relax on the sun pads. Getting a little hot? Step back to the cockpit under the sun shades to cool off while enjoying a quick lunch and ocean breezes.

Comfortable seating lines the wall along with expansive windows. The skylounge offers an outdoor dining area aft too.

After a long day on the water, guests can retire to one of six staterooms, all en suite. The full-beam master suite is a private oasis with a dedicated study,  his-and-hers en suite head and an adjacent convertible cabin. The cabin can be arranged with a double Murphy bed or two Pullmans. The four additional staterooms include two double VIPs and two double cabins, each with an additional single bed and a Pullman berth. En-suite bathrooms accompany each stateroom for maximum privacy.

Northrop & Johnson stated that “Unbridled is a remarkable example of a classic Trinity with an elegant blue hull, generous guest accommodations and an excellent charter reputation. Her revolutionary interior refurbishment in 2015 and refit in 2019 left no stone unturned. She is in primed condition; all of her modern amenities live in harmony with her traditional styling, creating an atmosphere that is warm, welcoming and designed for entertainment.”

Where is Unbridled located? The yacht is currently lying in Dania Beach, Florida.

The post Believe It or Not, This Yacht Was Built in 2015 appeared first on Yachting.

Chris fagan made his first trip to Alaska aboard the 130-foot Westport Serengeti in 2014. Back then, he was the mate; this summer, he’s doing his fourth season on the yacht as captain.

The place never gets old.

“It’s the best nature and wildlife ­cruising ground that there is,” he says. “Just given the vastness of the wilderness and the abundance of gigantic wildlife, it’s a reminder of what the world is capable of. It doesn’t matter who goes with us, whether they’ve chartered all over the world or it’s their first time: Everyone leaves with their minds blown.”

The good news for charter clients, he says, is that even ­despite the grandeur to be explored, precious few yachts with ­professional crew make the run to Alaska each summer. A lot of times, ­Serengeti has had an anchorage all to herself.

The bad news for charter clients, Fagan says, is that given the small number of available yachts and the short season, primarily from June through August, the best boats tend to book up fast. As of early May, Serengeti already had nine charters scheduled for this summer.

“I would say a year out is when you start getting the first bookings, and it’s wise to book six months in advance,” he says, “especially if you want a prime date.”

Clients wanting to book any boat in Alaska, he says, should look not only for an experienced crew, but also for a boat that’s outfitted for the area. Serengeti, for instance, has Isinglass on the main and top decks, allowing wide views without cold winds.

And it’s the views that count—especially given the realities of climate change.

“Of course, the glaciers are slowly receding, but they’re still there,” he says. “Who knows? A hundred years from now, some of them may be backed up farther than we can get to in a boat, but anybody who goes up now can experience that beauty.”

Reflections

What to expect in Alaska

• Charter Itineraries typically take place between Juneau, Alaska’s capital, and Sitka, in the southeast part of the state that borders Canada.
• The sounds of the glaciers as they calve, cracking off chunks and dropping them into the sea, is as loud as the roar of lions or a low-flying plane.
• Whales, bears, bald eagles and other wildlife are all around, so have a camera ready, ideally with a long lens.
• Try the candied salmon, which is eaten as a stick, kind of like beef jerky.
