Turkey’s Alia Yachts has announced the world debut of the 45-metre SAN, constructed in all-aluminium, at the 2024 Monaco Yacht Show, which will take place from 25 to 28 September.

The yacht, designed by Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design with naval architecture by Lateral Naval Architects, is powered by quadruple Volvo IPS drives. SAN’s design integrates both performance and efficiency within its engineering framework.

The main deck features a fully open layout extending from stern to bow, framed by full-height glass facades and sliding doors at both the aft and forward ends. This design creates an open atmosphere and allows for a direct connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.

The panoramic views around the salon are facilitated by the expansive glass, and the exterior deck furniture serves multiple purposes, including dining, cocktail settings, and sunbathing. The aft deck’s bulwarks fold down, expanding the sunbathing area and enhancing the space for outdoor socialising.

Meanwhile, the lower deck includes four guest cabins and the owner’s stateroom, all designed to meet the owner’s minimalist interior preferences while maintaining a high level of detail.

Following the completion of sea trials, SAN has been delivered to its owners and is currently at sea. The yacht will make its official world debut at the Monaco Yacht Show after the summer season.

Gökhan Çelik, President of Alia Yachts, says: “SAN is a striking and innovative superyacht that highlights our strengths as a truly custom builder.

“This project has been a significant milestone for us, showcasing our dedication to crafting superior custom yachts that meet the highest standards of quality and innovation.

“It’s projects like SAN that attract the best clients from all over the world, reinforcing our reputation as a leading custom yacht builder.”
