Design & Construction
Designed around a semi-displacement aluminium hull and superstructure she features a 8.5m beam and a 2.06m draft. The yacht is built over 2 decks with an internal volume of 279 GT (Gross Tonnes).
The yacht was designed and constructed in compliance with the Lloyds Register technical standards.
Exterior Design
Vesper carries the hallmark lines of Dubois Naval Architects, with a refined silhouette that balances elegance with long-range capability. Her dark navy hull, accented by white bootstripes, pairs with a crisp silver and white superstructure for a striking profile on the water.
The flybridge is designed as an inviting open-air retreat, equipped with an outdoor helm station offering full instrumentation for all major systems. A varnished teak dining table seats eight comfortably beneath a large aluminum hardtop that provides generous shade for mealtimes. Nearby, a bar, barbecue, and spa pool complete the space, with ample sunpads creating a generous lounging area ideal for relaxing under the sun.
Aft, the main deck cockpit flows directly from the saloon through custom automatic glass doors. This area features a 10-person dining table and a bar positioned to port, all sheltered by the flybridge overhang. A retractable hard awning extends the shade when needed, keeping the space well-protected while maintaining a seamless connection to the interior.
Designed with at-rest stabilisers and extended cruising in mind, Vesper is capable of trans-oceanic passages while maintaining a high level of onboard comfort and style.
Interior Design
The interior, styled by Donald Starkey Design, brings together rich textures and finely crafted joinery to create a warm, luxurious atmosphere throughout. On the main deck, macassar ebony and sycamore woodwork are used to elegant effect, while the lower guest level introduces stained zebrano and European olive woods for a subtle shift in tone. Doors are adorned with mother-of-pearl inlays, and soft leather accents alongside thoughtfully chosen fabrics introduce layers of tactile richness.
The saloon is spacious and refined, divided from the formal dining area by a custom-made dresser. A bespoke 10-seat dining table anchors the space, ideal for hosting guests in comfort. Natural flow between interior and exterior spaces enhances the overall sense of openness.
Forward on the main deck, the helm is situated near the galley and dining area, offering an efficient layout that supports both guest experience and operational practicality. The galley itself is configured for service flexibility, equally suited to private cruising or charter use.
Accommodation
Vesper accommodates up to 12 guests in five well-appointed staterooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom. The master suite is positioned forward on the main deck, offering complete privacy. It features a separate office space, a walk-in wardrobe, extensive bookshelves, and a marble-clad his-and-hers bathroom.
On the lower deck, four additional guest staterooms are arranged around a central foyer. Two of these are queen-size double cabins that stretch across the full beam, creating a particularly generous sense of space. The third is a twin cabin fitted with two single beds and a discreet Pullman berth. The fourth cabin is currently equipped as a gymnasium but can be converted into a guest cabin as needed. All guest suites include individual climate control, marble bathrooms, televisions, entertainment systems, and direct-dial telephones.
Crew accommodation is located forward on the lower deck and supports a team of up to seven. Three cabins are provided, including a double cabin for the captain, each with its own head, shower, and basin. This setup ensures operational efficiency while preserving guest privacy throughout the yacht.
