An award winning debut year

Delivered in 2008, Anastasia showed Oceanco working at the very top of the mid size superyacht class at 75.5 metres. The Alblasserdam yard built her as a genuine full custom commission with designer Sam Sorgiovanni leading throughout. Recognition came in her first year with Best Custom Yacht over 40 metres at the 2008 World Yacht Trophies. She has since sailed under a new name, Wheels, following a change of ownership. Her pedigree carries across both of those identities.

Her award confirmed the real strength of both the design and the build. Anastasia joined a run of Sorgiovanni collaborations that helped define Oceanco's output across the period. She offered elegant proportions and a warm interior within a genuinely manageable size. For owners, she remains a proven and fully decorated example of the yard's craft. The recognition she earned still stands today, and she remains a proof point for what the yard could do at this size.

Balanced Sorgiovanni lines

The exterior is by Sam Sorgiovanni, drawn with graceful, balanced proportions that quietly belie her volume. Anastasia carries a 13.5 metre beam and a clean, elegant profile. Her size makes her genuinely easy to place in ports that larger giants simply cannot reach. The styling has aged well, still handsome more than fifteen years on. She has a quiet confidence about her whole bearing, and the proportions still read as elegant more than fifteen years on.

Her decks are arranged for generous outdoor living across both sun and shade. The layout supports the full range of features expected of a custom yacht of her size. Tender and toy stowage sits discreetly within the hull. On the water she reads as refined and pleasingly understated. Nothing about her ever tries too hard for effect, and her restraint is exactly why she has aged so gracefully.

Warm Sorgiovanni interiors

Sorgiovanni also shaped the interior, giving Anastasia a warm and elegant character below decks. Public rooms are generous and inviting, scaled comfortably to her overall size. The palette is classic and rich, executed with real care throughout. Owner areas are kept private within the flow of the yacht. The atmosphere is intimate without ever feeling small, and warm woods and soft light carry through the public rooms.

She accommodates twelve guests in a master suite, two VIP staterooms and three double cabins, all fully en suite, served by a crew of around twenty six. Signature spaces balance formal and relaxed living with easy access to the outdoors. The detailing reflects the designer's evident craft. The result is a refined and genuinely welcoming yacht. She is easy to enjoy day to day, and the suites feel personal and warm at every turn.

Comfortable and capable

Anastasia is a steel hulled displacement yacht with an aluminium superstructure and a 3.8 metre draught. She was engineered for comfortable cruising with low motion and quiet running. Her size makes her efficient to run while still carrying the stores and systems for long itineraries. Stabilisation keeps life aboard settled at anchor and under way alike. Comfort and capability were pursued together.

As a full custom Oceanco she was built with the technical quality the yard is widely known for. Working spaces stay cleanly clear of the guest experience. Her manageable dimensions widen the choice of berths and anchorages open to her. For an owner, she balances real capability with genuinely easy handling. She opens doors that larger yachts cannot fit through, and that access is a real advantage in the world's prettiest ports.

Who she suits

Anastasia suits an owner who wants Oceanco pedigree and award winning design within a more intimate size. Her dimensions make marina access and crewing simpler than on the very largest giants. She is well suited to family cruising and refined entertaining alike. This is a yacht that offers big builder quality on a friendlier scale. She rewards owners who want reach and pedigree without the running scale of a giant.

As an asset she carries a documented award and a respected designer, now proven over a long career. Those credentials support her standing whenever she comes to market. For a buyer seeking a manageable yet serious Oceanco, she is a strong candidate. Few yachts of her size carry this pedigree. Her documented award still counts in any brokerage conversation.

Who it is for: An owner who wants an award winning, intimately scaled 75 metre Oceanco with warm Sorgiovanni interiors and easy port access.
