“Aquarella” is Greek for watercolour, so it seems a fitting name for a superyacht with such a colourful past. The 42-metre yacht was delivered in 1994 by UK yard Devonport and the 25 years since have followed a movie-worthy script.

Aquarella’s pared-down interior is complemented by artwork by celebrity photographer Lorenzo Agius, who has captured names including Tom Cruise, Gwen Stefani and Madonna. One of his iconic shots, of a pouting, blindfolded Angelina Jolie, dominates the wall in the main saloon and is the first thing that greets guests when they board the yacht. The saloon also features large windows that fill the space with natural light and a glass dining table for entertaining.

The yacht’s swim platform and expansive deck spaces were excellent for this shoot, which highlights some of the best swimwear for the 2019 Mediterranean season. These features also make Aquarella right at home in her cruising grounds of the Greek islands. With an experienced captain and crew of seven on board, she specialises in itineraries that take guests to some of the hidden treasures of this popular superyacht destination. As such, she is stocked with a selection of
water toys, including jet skis and inflatables. She has a cruising speed of 19 knots and a top speed of 24 knots, making her perfect for relocating between islands, and is fitted with zero-speed stabilisers for smooth cruising in any conditions.

“I sometimes wonder, if these walls could talk what they would say,” jokes her new owner. Now as one of the most stylish yachts available in the Greek Islands, Aquarella’s colourful life story looks set to continue.
