ARBEMA is a 72-metre displacement motor yacht built by the Italian shipyard CRN and delivered in 2010, with naval architecture by the yard and both exterior lines and interior styling by the acclaimed studio Nuvolari Lenard. Originally kept in private ownership for more than a decade, she emerged onto the charter market in exceptional condition following an extensive twelve-month refit completed in 2024, which included a full repaint and a comprehensive interior redesign overseen by Rhoades Young. The result is a yacht that combines a mature, well-sorted platform with a fresh, contemporary feel, defined by light, calming tones, warm timber panelling and bold, gallery-style artwork.
Built from a steel hull and an aluminium superstructure, ARBEMA offers generous interior volume across several decks and the kind of stability at anchor that only a full-displacement hull can provide. She accommodates up to twelve guests in eight ensuite cabins. The full-beam master suite is a particular highlight, featuring a fold-down balcony that opens at the touch of a button, a private television room and a dedicated massage room, while the remaining accommodation comprises a VIP cabin, four doubles and two twins, ensuring flexibility for families and groups travelling together. A crew of twenty-four, professional and intuitive, looks after every detail of the charter.
Outdoor living is where ARBEMA truly excels. Her sun deck is among the largest in her class, crowned by a swimming pool and Jacuzzi and complemented by shaded dining, a bar and expanses of sun pads, with the aft section doubling as a helipad for discreet arrivals and departures. A standout feature is her beach club of roughly one hundred square metres, which opens directly onto the water and includes a sit-up bar, a gym and ample space for sofas and loungers at sea level. Guests can cool off by riding the water slide down from the sun deck straight into the sea, then climb back aboard to be served cocktails and refreshments.
Inside, the voluminous main-deck salon sets the tone for elegant entertaining, while a dedicated cinema with a sizeable screen offers a relaxed retreat for film nights. Dining can be enjoyed formally in the main salon or al fresco in the sky lounge, where a chef prepares menus to suit every occasion. Throughout, the yacht balances refined finishes with a genuinely comfortable, family-friendly atmosphere.
For those seeking activity, ARBEMA carries an extensive inventory of water toys and tenders, headlined by a matching Anvera chase boat that can whisk guests off for coastal exploration or trips ashore. Jet skis, towables, water skis, a seabob, wakeboards, kayaks and full scuba and snorkelling equipment round out the collection, and the broad swimming platform makes launching effortless. An advanced stabilisation system reduces roll both underway and at anchor, ensuring a smooth experience even in less sheltered waters.
Powered by twin Caterpillar engines, she cruises comfortably at around fifteen knots, reaches a top speed of roughly seventeen knots and offers transoceanic range, making her well suited to extended itineraries. ARBEMA spends her summers cruising the Mediterranean and her winters exploring the Caribbean and Central America, and whatever the destination, her five-star crew is dedicated to delivering a memorable, tailor-made charter.
