Notable for its wraparound decks, the 13.7m motoryacht has a 4.1m beam and a 1m draft, and can accommodate 12 guests. Fitted with twin Volvo IPS 600 engines, the vessel has a top speed of 39 knots, a cruising speed of 30 knots and a range of 640nm.

The exterior area has a foldable teak cockpit table, wet bar, barbecue grill, transom shower and foredeck sunpad, while the stern sunpad can also be used to store two Seabobs and a launching crane.

Below deck is more storage, a mini galley area and a double cabin with 24-inch TV, head and shower. Each Alen 45 can be customised for the owner’s preferred layout, veneer and upholstery.
