First interior images of Alia Yachts’ 43m Ximena
Alia Yachts has released the first interior images of its 43-metre raised pilothouse project, Ximena, following the yacht’s world debut at the Palm Beach International Boat Show 2026 where new exterior photographs were shown. The full‑custom vessel first touched the water at Alia’s Antalya facilities in October of the previous year and is currently listed for sale with Felix Sowerbutts and Will Christie of Christie Yachts.
The images complete the public presentation of the yacht’s design intent, allowing a clearer assessment of spatial planning and material choices alongside the exterior lines. They also mark a key stage before broader viewings and the yacht’s global premiere, providing prospective buyers and brokers with a more complete picture of the boat’s layout and finish level.
Yodezeen interiors: neutral palette, flow and al fresco
Interiors were executed by Yodezeen, a studio founded by two Ukrainian designers now operating from Miami, and show a restrained, neutral palette with layered textures and soft backlighting. The main saloon benefits from sliding glass doors on both sides, promoting cross‑ventilation and an uninterrupted flow between interior and exterior living areas that supports al fresco use.
Accommodation is arranged with a forward master stateroom on the main deck that includes a walk‑in wardrobe, plus four guest suites on the lower deck. The lower deck also houses crew quarters for seven, a gym and a side‑loading tender garage, while exterior relaxation spaces span the aft deck, foredeck and sundeck; the pilothouse deck adds a Jacuzzi and bar area to the yacht’s entertainment options.
Van Oossanen FDHF and performance specs of Ximena
Alia engaged Van Oossanen for naval architecture, specifying a Fast Displacement Hull Form (FDHF) to complement the yacht’s low draught. Key hull attributes such as a fine entry, shallow transom and a bow spray rail are intended to reduce resistance and support efficient cruising, with studio principal Perry van Oossanen noting these features enable fuel‑efficient cruising, strong top‑end performance and relatively modest engine power for the yacht’s size.
Ximena is powered by twin MTU TIER III 16V 2000 M96L engines, giving a top speed in excess of 22.6 knots and a range of approximately 3,200 nautical miles at a 12‑knot cruise. The yacht’s profile, developed with long‑term design partners Omega Architects, adopts a streamlined, deliberately assertive appearance that complements the performance‑focused hull form.
Market debut, sale listing and Alia’s ongoing builds
Ximena made her public debut at Palm Beach, where Alia Yachts president Gökhan Çelik described the project as representative of the yard’s approach to full‑custom building and performance‑driven, owner‑specific design. Although the yacht was originally sold to a client based in Miami, she is currently being marketed through Christie Yachts, making her available to qualified buyers and brokers following the launch and debut displays.
The launch of Ximena comes as Alia continues to expand its production line, with five vessels currently under construction including the 60‑metre Serenity II, which recently hit the water. Together, these projects underscore Alia’s sustained collaborations with Omega Architects and Van Oossanen and position Ximena as both a sales offering and a prototype for the yard’s new series; forthcoming steps will include private showings, sea trials and the yacht’s global premiere.
