Alia was designed by acclaimed Aldo Cichero, who is renowned for his works designing yachts for some of the most discerning owners. Alia exemplified sophistication and cutting-edge design.
Originally built in 1991 by BENETTI and subsequently refitted in 2001 at Mondomarine with new engines, including transom extension and addition of bulbous bow. Alia has since 2013 recorded yearly class surveys under ABS, she is well looked after by her current owner.
The 2001 refit included lengthening and addition of a bulbous-bow, plus installation of new Caterpillar M3412E engines, all increasing fuel efficiency. Following these upgrades, she was renamed Elenesse II, continuing to serve her Greek owner with increased capacity and improved performance.
In 2013, the yacht was moved to the waters of the United Arab Emirates. This acquisition marked the beginning of a new chapter and modernization for Alia. The yacht’s Navcom equipment was entirely updated, featuring advanced technologies including:
• Furuno Echosounder
