Description
See at the 2024 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.
FAR NIENTE is a stunning 40-meter Westport yacht that boasts an
excellent, meticulously maintained pedigree. Built in 2014, this yacht has only
had one owner since its delivery and has been consistently kept in top
condition. She is ABS classed and MCA certified, which establishes high levels
of safety and construction for everyone onboard.
One of the outstanding features of FAR NIENTE is her Zero-Speed
stabilizers, which ensure a comfortable time for everyone onboard, whether
anchored or underway. With a top cruising speed of 24 knots, this yacht can
easily take you wherever you want to go.
FAR NIENTE's accommodations are top-notch and can comfortably host up to
10 guests in five staterooms. The full-beam master stateroom on the main deck
is the owner's private haven, complete with a starboard side study with a
built-in desk, as well as his and hers walk-in closets and bathroom finished in
a gorgeous Onyx. The four guest staterooms are located below deck and consist
of two VIP suites with king berths and two additional twin staterooms, all with
ensuite baths. The crew accommodations are also well-appointed and can support
up to seven or eight crewmembers in four cabins.
One of the most exceptional spaces on FAR NIENTE is the skylounge, which
features large windows, an electric fireplace and comfortable sofas and chairs.
This space is an extraordinary spot to take in the surroundings, socialize, or
play a board game. A large flat-screen TV, small desk, service bar, and dayhead
add to the convenience and enjoyment of the space, allowing guests the ultimate
in comfort and relaxation.
The main salon and dining area are equally impressive, with a large
seating area that includes sophisticated sofas, ottomans and occasional chairs.
The oversized windows flood the area with natural light, enhancing the
spectacular views. A formal dining area for up to 10 guests is further forward
and includes a raised-panel mahogany buffet with twin wine coolers for easy
guest service.
Forward of the main salon and dining area is the starboard side main
entrance foyer, with the spacious galley to port and a day head just forward.
The professional stainless steel, fully equipped galley features a large
walk-around island, with a bar top and stools for guests or crew to relax. The state-of-the-art
appliances, excellent storage, and plenty of light make this galley a dream for
any professional chef.
FAR NIENTE's exterior decks are equally impressive, offering ample space
for guests to enjoy the great outdoors. The aft deck features a spacious
covered dining area for up to 10 guests, as well as a fully equipped wet bar
with guest seating and a large flat-screen TV. This area is perfect for
cocktails and dining, whether at anchor or tied up at the dock. The space can
also comfortably accommodate 18 to 20 guests during parties. A few steps down
from the aft deck, the swim platform allows easy access to the water and the
yacht's tender and toys.
The boat deck aft is accessed through another set of double glass
automated doors via the skylounge and is home to the yacht’s tender and various
water toys. A large flat-screen TV is also concealed in the overhead, and a
service bar with a BBQ is located on the port side.

Black and gray water is routed to an FRP tank prior to emptying via shore side pump out. When permitted, black water can be treated by the onboard MSD for overboard evacuation or the contents can be delivered directly overboard. The dockside pump out connection is located on the swim platform. Gray Water is sent directly overboard or when required, routed to the black water tank. Tanks are vented at the boot stripe, carry level alarms and are monitored on the Vessel Monitoring System.
Pumps: High capacity solids handling AC diaphragm pump.
MSD: Certified to meet MARPOL regulations as well as USCG Type II MSD. (Includes chlorine generator)
Black Water Tank: FRP construction with internal baffles, approx. 1,740 gal.
Gray water collection/movement: Three Headhunter sumps (crew, guest and engineers) for transfer to black water tank or directly overboard via Y-valve. Westport construction includes primary AC pump and DC back-up pump with strainer, inspection port and alarm on DC pump.
Black water lift station: A Headhunter sump for the galley and crew galley for transfer to the black water tank.
Compressed Air System
The vessel will have a compressed air system for powering the ship’s whistle, gasoline dispensing pump and oil dispensing pump, the fuel valves, as well as for use in the machinery spaces for air powered tools. The system consists of compressor, piping system, quick connect fittings, and (3) accumulator tanks.
Quick Connect Fittings: Located; FWD escape hatch, Port Swim Step, Exterior Bar (port side) on Pilothouse deck and Flybridge Mast Leg (stbd) in storage locker.
Accumulator tanks: 3 - 10-gallon units, 2 in the Engine Room and 1in the stbd. Flybridge mast leg storage locker.
Hose/Reel: Reel Craft - Hose ½” x 35’
Compressor: Kaeser 5hp SX-6
Bilge System
The bilge system consists of five watertight bilge compartments which carry alarms for the presence of water and are monitored electronically. In the Engine Room and Utility Room are 66 gpm AC bilge pumps. The water pumping Diesel engine, mounted in the Utility Room bilge (part of the firefighting system) can also be engaged for extreme bilge pumping capability.
Deck Drain System
All exterior decks are fitted with freeing ports and/or drains with a plumbed piping system. Deck drains are molded portions of the deck and fitted with polished stainless steel grates. All drain piping is of ABS approved materials, PVC – DWV and are led to laminated thru hulls located at the boot stripe with check valves and ball valves.
Fire Hydrant System
The fire main system consists of four fire stations and two pumps. Each station contains a hose, angle valve, and high/low volume nozzle. The primary electric fire pump can be started from any fire station or locally.
The interior of the ship is protected by sprinklers which draw from the ship’s fresh water supply. In the event the water supply is depleted, then without interruption, the system would revert to seawater use.
The engine room is protected by a gas smothering FM200 system.
Galley Hood Fire System
Independent, fixed system is located in the main galley in the hood above the stove.
Stabilizer System
Stabilization while underway is provided by a pair of fins located approximately amidships and powered hydraulically by a main engine driven hydraulic pump. Control is by modern digital ‘fly-by-wire’ system located in the pilothouse.
At rest stabilization: Zero speed stabilization is accomplished by two 22 sq foot stabilizer fins using a Model Naiad 525 Stabilizer system which is powered by the central hydraulic system via a generator.
Stabilizers were dropped in November 2021 for service. Hydraulics were serviced in Jan 2023.
HVAC System
The interior temperature of the vessel is maintained by a 30 ton capacity seawater cooled HVAC system from Marine Air. Air handlers of various BTU ratings are mounted behind cabinets and bulkheads throughout the vessel and are fitted with electric heating elements for autonomous heating for all accommodation, crew, and guest spaces. The HVAC system also provides fresh air make up to create a ventilated atmosphere.
(2) brand new AC compressors installed in Dec 2022
(1) refurbished AC compressor in April 2023
(1) new compressor scheduled for installation in June 2023
Central Hydraulic System
The system is powered by pumps on port and SB generators (either or both at the same time). The central hydraulic system operates the thrusters, capstans, anchor winches, stabilizers, and crane/davit. New PTO installed in 2022.
Bow thruster: 16” dual prop, 65HP motor
Stern thruster: 16” dual prop, 55HP motor
Davit: Nautical Structures telescoping 3,000 lb capacity with DC backup power for MCA compliance.
Passarelle: Extends from under the aft deck behind the stairs on the port side. Passarelle will accommodate a wheelchair and has removable railings. It extends 6’7.5” past the transom.
Stabilizers – see description above.
Mooring System
(2) Davis Anchor Talon HHP-500 stainless steel anchors – 530 lbs each
5/8” stud link galvanized steel chain (ABS certified) – 400’ stbd, 400’ port
• Anchor chains replaced in November 2021
Maxwell Windlass/winch combination on the foredeck are hydraulically driven.
(2) Maxwell VC3500 Capstans are located on the swim step bustles to port and starboard.
