ABOUT ELENA of LONDON

Below deck, ELENA of LONDON reveals a world of understated elegance shaped by traditional yacht craftsmanship. Rich mahogany panelling, polished brass details, and white Herreshoff-style walls create a warm, refined atmosphere that feels both historic and quietly luxurious. Five beautifully finished cabins accommodate up to ten people, including an owner’s stateroom with a private desk area, lounge seating, and a particularly spacious en-suite bathroom.

Natural light pours through classic portholes, connecting the interior spaces with the surrounding sea while maintaining the calm intimacy of a heritage sailing yacht. Across the deckhouse and saloon, the design balances authenticity with comfort, offering welcoming spaces to gather for relaxed dining, quiet conversation, or evenings spent sharing stories after a day under sail.

Life aboard ELENA of LONDON is centred around the rhythm of wind and water. Under full sail, her towering schooner rig delivers an unforgettable sense of scale and motion, gliding through the Mediterranean with elegance and power. Days unfold slowly across wide teak decks, sailing between the French Riviera, Corsica, Sardinia, or the Ionian islands, dropping anchor in hidden bays, or enjoying watersports from the yacht’s tender.

For those drawn to the heritage of competitive sailing, ELENA also offers the rare opportunity to take part in iconic regattas across the Mediterranean and beyond. Whether cruising quietly along the Provençal coast, exploring secluded Greek anchorages, or experiencing the thrill of classic yacht racing, she offers a style of yachting that feels both timeless and deeply immersive.
