Ocean-Going Luxury Yachts

"After considering many trawlers and other oceanworthy vessels, we chose our Selene for the beauty of the lines, layout, and features."

“The quality of build while presenting a classic, elegant appearance is what drew us to our Selene. The workmanship of the wood carpentry is exceptional and the high overall quality helps maintain the appearance longer than most boats.”

“I would like to thank Selene Yachts for making such a stable, safe and beautiful boat . . . Selene has been incredibly helpful in outfitting the boat with needed upgrades and systems integral to a journey such as a circumnavigation."

“In 2022, we spent five months aboard, cruising the inside passage to Alaska, across the Gulf of Alaska, and out to the Kenai Peninsula. We put almost 5000 miles and 650 engine hours under her keel that summer alone. Everywhere we go, people comment on what a beautiful boat our Selene is.”

“We cruise the Chesapeake Bay in the summers and travel to the Bahamas for the winters... She is extremely stable and we love to make multiple day offshore passages. At anchor, she is a comfortable home. Solar panels and a watermaker allow us to stay on the hook for months at a time in remote and isolated locations.”

“We shopped for our dream boat for about five years and considered many other brands of trawlers. When we first saw a Selene, we fell in love with its style and quality. We then kept coming back to Selene for its beauty, comfort, durability, and the ability to customize – as we really wanted the optional midship master stateroom.”

“Safety at sea is our Priority #1. Slip Away has a very rugged hull with three watertight bulkheads, and a forward crush zone. Her stabilizers afford a comfortable ride in ugly seas. The full walk-around deck keeps crew safe in any sea condition. Her twin Cummins diesels provide ample power, and coupled with bow and stern thrusters, make for effortless maneuvering.”

“We love to entertain and share this amazing lifestyle with our friends and family. They consistently comment on the beautiful woodwork and craftsmanship. We couldn’t be happier with our beautiful home and look forward to many more years exploring in comfort.”

“When we think about the other boats we’ve been on and considered for ourselves, they’ve all reinforced what we already knew: our Selene yacht is, without question or doubt, the right boat for us.”

“On any given day you will encounter another Selene in what looks and feels like a remote anchorage. This summer we were in a remote anchorage with seven other boats, four of which were Selenes. Selene owners use their boats, and that is one thing we love about the brand and the community.”

“Many of our favorite experiences have just been sharing the lifestyle with our dear friends and family – and especially watching our grandsons enjoy everything that cruising encompasses. The camaraderie of fellow Selene owners was the unexpected benefit.”

“From the moment we stepped into the shipyard, we knew we were part of something special. The team’s dedication to detail and quality craftsmanship is evident at every stage. They don’t just build boats; they elevate adventure, ensuring every owner explores with confidence and pride.”

“Ever since I stepped aboard my first Selene, I knew there was something special about these yachts. You can see and feel the passion in the craftsmanship, and the woodwork is just breathtaking. What truly impressed me was the strength and stability of the yacht out in open water. And the fact that I could tailor some of the interiors to my liking? That was the cherry on top. Every voyage just feels like a dream.”

“We've had our fair share of experiences with different yachts, but Selene stands out. The Caribbean trip we took last summer was nothing short of luxurious. The decks, the interiors, the entire build screams quality. And I must say, getting our yacht delivered faster than expected was a delightful surprise. If you're looking for the perfect blend of comfort and adventure, Selene is where you find it.”

"We found that we could have the best of both worlds – a solidly built boat that was beautiful. We love the way she handles weather and the incredible woodwork. We have never aspired to cross oceans, but we wanted a boat that could."
