A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE. A NEW EVOLUTION.
Now offered for sale and recently reimagined by CHAPMAN, EVOLUTION is a 39-metre (128ft) Australian-built Oceanfast superyacht combining pedigree construction, contemporary luxury and genuine long-range cruising capability exceeding 3,000 nautical miles. Extensively refitted in 2023 with an investment exceeding AUD $3 million, she represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a highly versatile superyacht, equally suited to private ownership, expedition-style cruising or continued commercial charter operations.
Constructed with an aluminium hull and superstructure, EVOLUTION combines Oceanfast’s renowned engineering and seakeeping heritage with an impressive balance of performance, versatility and contemporary luxury. Powered by relatively modest twin MTU engines for her size, her lightweight aluminium construction and efficient cruising characteristics position her among the most fuel-efficient superyachts in the 40-metre category.
Having benefited from multiple refits throughout her life, including an extensive programme completed in 2023, EVOLUTION has undergone significant upgrades to her exterior, interior and onboard systems. Works included a complete exterior repaint, stern and swim platform extension, interior refurbishment and enhancements to her bridge, electronics and onboard equipment.
With a range exceeding 3,000 nautical miles, EVOLUTION is equally capable of extended coastal cruising and longer-range voyages throughout the South Pacific. Her impressive range, economical operating characteristics and substantial equipment inventory make her particularly well suited to owners seeking the freedom to explore remote destinations without compromising on comfort or luxury.
Inside, Henderson & Co has created something closer to a beautifully appointed New York residence than a traditional superyacht. Contemporary, considered and effortlessly sophisticated, the interiors offer multiple entertaining and relaxation spaces, complemented by accommodation for eight guests across four beautifully appointed cabins, including a full-beam master suite, two VIP staterooms and a double guest cabin.
Outside, EVOLUTION’s expansive deck spaces are a defining feature. A spectacular single-level flybridge, open-air bars, forward bow seating, modular lounges and generous entertaining areas provide exceptional flexibility for both private enjoyment and commercial operations. The aft flybridge features a modular furniture arrangement, allowing the space to be transformed from an expansive entertaining area into a practical storage and deployment zone for tenders and jet skis, supported by a two-tonne HIAB crane.
Her impressive watersports capabilities extend to a seven-metre rigid inflatable tender, onboard dive compressor and Z-lift submersible swim platform, providing exceptional access to the water. The extended stern arrangement, foredeck lounge and multiple outdoor entertaining spaces further enhance her versatility, whether at anchor in Sydney Harbour or exploring more remote destinations.
Beyond her lifestyle appeal, EVOLUTION presents a compelling commercial proposition. Certified to accommodate up to 80 passengers and supported by an established charter history, she has demonstrated her ability to operate successfully within Australia’s premium charter market and is very much a turnkey, income-producing asset on an upward trajectory, with forward charter bookings in place.
For prospective owners seeking to offset operating expenses through commercial activity, EVOLUTION offers the opportunity to continue an established charter programme, with the option of ongoing management, operational and charter support through CHAPMAN.
Based in Sydney and equipped for cruising Australia’s East Coast and the South Pacific, EVOLUTION offers prospective owners the opportunity to acquire an extensively refitted, commercially proven superyacht with an established operational platform, genuine long-range cruising capability and significant lifestyle appeal.
A pedigree Oceanfast. A contemporary transformation. An opportunity to own A NEW EVOLUTION.
