About this yacht
M/Y STEEL is a 55-metre explorer yacht built by Pendennis, designed for long-range cruising in a wide range of conditions.
Her steel hull and ice-class capability reflect a strong focus on safety and reliability, while her recent refit in 2025 confirms a well-maintained and operationally ready vessel. Proven on long-distance passages, she offers a platform built for autonomy and extended time at sea.
The interior presents a more traditional and distinctive atmosphere, inspired by classic gentlemen’s club design, with enclosed spaces and a strong sense of privacy throughout.
Features such as a heated spa pool with counter-current, a dedicated wine cellar and adjoining cigar lounge contribute to a well-balanced onboard experience, combining capability with character.
