Design

Alfa Nero was designed by Nuvolari & Lenard and built by Oceanco in 2007.[4] The interior of Alfa Nero was designed by Alberto Pinto.[5] In September 2009, it was reported that Alfa Nero was being listed for sale for $190,000,000.[4] Alfa Nero is frequently sailed by Andrey Guryev.[6]

Alfa Nero can accommodate 12 guests and up to 26 crew, and has over 4,000 square feet (370 m2) of living space. The yacht features a 12-by-38-foot (3.7 m × 11.6 m) pool on the aft deck that can, through a hydraulic system, transform into a dance floor or a helipad.[4][5] The Alfa Nero has a range of 6,630 miles (10,670 km; 5,760 nmi) at 15 knots (28 km/h; 17 mph), and can reach speeds of up to 21 knots (24 mph).[3][4] Alfa Nero was refitted in 2013.[7]

The master suite occupies the entire forward aspect of the upper deck. A self-contained private world - not one single centimetre of the substantial terrace is visible from any other part of the yacht. Inside the suite, colours are pale, textures are subtle and space is splendidly indulgent. Other suites are defined by carefully coordinated colours that run across everything from bedheads to cushions.

Designers Nuvolari and Lenard planned the saloon’s to excel in totally different ways. The full beam upper saloon is palatial and luxurious, the main deck saloon is beautifully contemporary whilst the dining saloons are elegant and indulgent.

On the top deck, with views through 180 degree windows, is an inspiring diversion gym, equipped with state-of-the-art equipment, whilst on the lower deck, there is a health and beauty spa, a true sanctuary of wellbeing.

Inside and out, the reason for ALFA NERO's iconic reputation is clear to see. An experience on ALFA NERO is like no other, making her the perfect choice for charter.[8]
