PRICE REDUCTION ON M/Y SHAHA
A Classic Gentleman’s Yacht with Heritage
M/Y SHAHA is now offered at EUR 1,600,000 following a significant EUR 300,000 price reduction, creating an opportunity for buyers to acquire a classic 34.6m gentleman’s yacht with authentic heritage, extensive refit history and 3,600nm range.
Few yachts on today’s market provide the character, provenance and cruising capability of M/Y SHAHA. Originally built in 1968 as a rescue vessel for the Norwegian city of Fredrikstad, this 34.6-metre motor yacht has evolved into a distinguished gentleman’s yacht while retaining the robust qualities that made her exceptional from the very beginning.
Commissioned and funded by the citizens of Fredrikstad, Norway, SHAHA was designed to serve as a dedicated rescue vessel capable of operating in challenging conditions. Her steel hull and aluminium superstructure continue to provide the strength, seaworthiness and reliability associated with her original purpose, while decades of careful ownership and investment have transformed her into an elegant private yacht.
One of the most significant chapters in SHAHA’s history began in 1996, when she was acquired by renowned entrepreneur and America’s Cup figure Peter de Savary. Under his ownership, the vessel underwent an extensive restoration programme, stripped back to her bare frames and comprehensively rebuilt to create the yacht seen today. Further major works followed at some of the industry’s most respected shipyards, including Pendennis Shipyard in the United Kingdom, Spanopoulos in Greece and Cantieri Navali di La Spezia in Italy.
Today, SHAHA offers generous volumes rarely found in a yacht of her size. Her accommodation is arranged across six cabins, providing flexibility for family cruising or entertaining guests, while expansive exterior deck areas create inviting spaces for relaxation and dining. Modern stabilisation systems enhance comfort both underway and at anchor, making her equally suited to extended cruising or leisurely Mediterranean exploration.
Beyond her classic lines and timeless appeal, SHAHA remains a capable long-range yacht. With an approximate range of 3,600 nautical miles at economical speed, she offers the freedom to undertake ambitious itineraries with confidence. Her substantial refit history and long-term ownership further reflect a vessel that has benefited from continuous care and investment throughout her life.
For buyers looking for more than just another yacht, M/Y SHAHA is a vessel for sale with authentic history, proven capability and enduring character.
M/Y SHAHA is currently offered for sale with a recently reduced asking price of EUR 1,600,000.
