"Aventura" was custom built for her current owner by Real Ships, near Mobile, Alabama and delivered in October of 2008. She is a steel hulled Expedition Yacht with Aluminum superstructure and features complete redundancy in her systems. "Aventura’s" interior is done in a style reminiscent of early classic yachts and features Burmese Golden Teak throughout with Marble and Onyx countertops. Strong and purposeful ship like exterior styling with a luxurious interior set her apart from the crowd…she turns heads wherever she goes.
The owner is retiring from boating and motivated to find a buyer to take the helm of this wonderful expedition yacht.

"Aventura" is a steel hulled yacht with aluminum superstructure that is welded with DetaCouple.
Naval Architecture was done by Pat Bray, with concept design by Joe Johnson at Real Ships. Additional Naval Architecture and cutting files were supplied by SAI, Ship Architects. Steel and Aluminum CNC cutting was done in Mobile, Alabama, and the Interior design was by Innovative Interiors. The hull shape was tank tested by BC Research in Vancouver, and features hydrodynamic engine pod keels that allow the traditional engine and transmission configuration to be further aft in the boat. Her large bulbous bow not only adds efficiency at cruise but slows the pitching motion in head seas with the bulb’s buoyancy keeping the bow high and dry.
The interior decking and woodwork float on SounDown insulation to deaden sound and vibration. All steel interiors are epoxy painted with spray foam insulation.

Being a steel hulled vessel, all the fuel, water and waste tanks are integral in the construction. When you consider all the tanks and bulkheads, this boat has around 16 watertight compartments.
