Description
BELUGA is a globally renowned explorer yacht built by Moonen, now offered for sale following a significant refit.
The 34.7m Moonen explorer, constructed to Lloyd’s ✠ 100A1 SSC Yacht Mono G6 and Ice Class 1D standards, is a unique 114 model delivered in 2006—an exceptional opportunity for a discerning buyer seeking Northern European pedigree, world-class engineering, Ice Class capability, and a vessel presented in excellent condition following a comprehensive refit totalling AUD $4,350,000.
Delivered in 2006 and extensively upgraded, BELUGA is in outstanding operational and cosmetic condition. Her recent refit includes fully rebuilt engines and generators, a complete exterior repaint in Awlcraft 2000, new air conditioning system, overhauled stabilizers, extensive electrical and navigational upgrades, and a redesigned interior. Please refer to the full refit works list for details.
Her Ice Class steel hull and aluminium superstructure are paired with large yacht commercial-grade systems suited to long-range cruising, including Alfa Laval fuel purification, a new potable water filtration and UV sterilisation system, and redundant navigation systems throughout.
BELUGA accommodates 10–12 guests across five staterooms, including a full-beam master suite on the main deck with private office, and versatile guest cabins. Her interiors have been fully refreshed with new carpets, deckheads, soft furnishings, upgraded guest linens, and a redesigned bridge deck saloon. She spans four spacious and practical decks, including Moonen’s signature observation crow’s nest.
An acclaimed vessel, BELUGA is the recipient of multiple awards, including the “World Yachts Trophy” and Boat International’s “Yacht of the Year.” With a legacy of design excellence, conservation involvement, and distinctive global itineraries, BELUGA represents a rare and valuable offering in the sub 40m explorer yacht market.
