A 55-Meter Ice-Class Explorer Ready for Global Adventures

We are proud to present STEEL, a 55-meter explorer yacht built by Pendennis Shipyard in the United Kingdom and now available for sale. Delivered in 2009 and fully repainted in 2025, STEEL is a rare example of a true oceangoing vessel that combines expedition capability with refined comfort. Her ice-classed steel hull, timeless English interior, and exceptional technical pedigree make her one of the most distinctive yachts in her category.

Built by Pendennis Shipyard and designed for serious exploration, STEEL is ice-classed with a 3 cm thick steel hull capable of breaking through 80 cm of ice, a testament to her engineering excellence. She has proven her reliability on long-range journeys and remains in exceptional condition following continuous maintenance and a full repaint in 2025.

Inside, STEEL reflects the warmth and sophistication of a classic English gentlemen’s club. The interior, designed by Liebowitz & Partners, accommodates 12 guests across seven spacious cabins, including a full-beam master suite, two VIPs, and four twin cabins, each with additional bunk beds.

The crew area, designed for efficiency and comfort, houses up to 12 crew members in six cabins. The yacht is equipped with advanced entertainment and communication systems throughout, including LG OLED TVs, Yamaha amplifiers, and Apple TV 4K in all main areas and cabins.

Unique to STEEL are her carefully curated features: a diesel-heated endless pool with artificial current, a bow-mounted dolphin observation basket, and a wine cellar for 600 bottles paired with an adjoining cigar bar. The atmosphere on board blends exploration spirit with refined living, offering discreet speakeasy-style corners and elegant relaxation spaces throughout.

Powered by twin CAT 3512B engines, STEEL cruises comfortably at 10 knots with an impressive range of 10,000 nautical miles. With her Quantum Zero Speed stabilizers, advanced navigation systems, and expedition-grade galley with a walk-in refrigerator, she is ready for extended voyages to even the most remote destinations.
