Yachts

GREEN, GREEN GRACE E

Built in 2014, the 240ft Grace E is a superyacht with a conscience. Packing some serious green credentials, she boasts an advanced diesel-electric propulsion system that, with her two Azipods and optimized hull design, enables her to comfortably cruise at 12 knots for more than 7,500 nautical miles. Grace E can also sail in ecologically sensitive

areas, since she benefits from a dynamic positioning system that negates the need to drop anchor and potentially harm the marine life below. Available for charter from $749,000 per week, +1 212 233 0410, charter@burgessyachts.com, burgessyachts.com
