Award-winning 95′ INACE explorer yacht
Now offered at USD 4,995,000
For owners dreaming of long-range cruising without compromising on comfort or luxury, IMPETUS presents an exceptional opportunity. Now offered at a newly reduced asking price of USD 4,995,000 (previously USD 5,200,000), this award-winning 95-foot INACE explorer yacht combines proven ocean-going capability with the amenities of a much larger superyacht.
Built in 2005 by the renowned Brazilian shipyard INACE, IMPETUS was custom commissioned by an experienced owner with a clear vision: to create an explorer yacht capable of crossing oceans in complete comfort while remaining practical to own and operate. The result is widely regarded as one of the finest examples of the INACE 95 Explorer series and earned recognition as a Top 5 International Superyacht Design Award winner.
Built for serious exploration
Unlike many yachts that merely borrow explorer styling, IMPETUS has the credentials to match her appearance. Constructed with a steel displacement hull, aluminium superstructure and a hull designed by Bray Yacht Design, she was tank tested for efficiency and seakeeping before launch. During her lifetime she has logged more than 80,000 nautical miles, including multiple Atlantic crossings, voyages to Alaska and even a rounding of Cape Horn—proving herself in some of the world’s most demanding cruising grounds.
Powered by twin Caterpillar 3406E diesel engines, she cruises comfortably at 10 knots, reaches a top speed of 13 knots, and boasts an impressive 6,500-nautical-mile range, making her equally suited to global expeditions or extended periods of autonomous cruising.
Superyacht comfort on an explorer platform
One of IMPETUS‘s defining qualities is how much larger she feels than her 95-foot length suggests. Her interiors, designed by Kirschstein Design, showcase beautifully crafted American cherry wood, granite finishes, elegant arched doorways and bespoke detailing throughout.
Accommodation is arranged for eight guests in four staterooms, with the spacious skylounge able to convert into an additional VIP suite, office, gym or cinema depending on an owner’s needs. Three crew are accommodated separately, allowing for attentive service without compromising guest privacy.
The full-beam owner’s suite rivals those typically found aboard 120-foot yachts, while generous entertaining spaces include a welcoming main salon, formal dining area, gourmet galley and expansive skylounge.
Designed for life at sea
IMPETUS was engineered with reliability and low maintenance as guiding principles. Extensive use of stainless steel and granite reduces exterior upkeep, while commercial-grade systems were selected for durability and ease of servicing during long voyages.
Among her standout technical features is the Quantum Marine MAGLift Zero Speed Stabilizer system, a sophisticated installation rarely found on yachts of this size and originally valued at over USD 1 million. Together with comprehensive navigation equipment, substantial storage, commercial-grade engineering systems and the ability to carry an extraordinary selection of expedition gear – even a Mini Cooper on deck – IMPETUS is ready for serious adventure.
An exceptional opportunity
Recent works include completed ABS and MCA inspections, servicing of the main engines, replacement of most ceiling and wall panels, new main breakers and numerous electrical updates, helping ensure she is ready for her next owner.
With her new asking price of USD 4,995,000, IMPETUS represents compelling value in today’s explorer yacht market. Few yachts combine genuine bluewater pedigree, award-winning design, luxurious accommodation and proven reliability in such a complete package.
For owners looking for a yacht capable of taking them virtually anywhere in comfort and confidence, IMPETUS remains one of the most compelling explorer yachts available today.
