From the 1930s to Today

Constructed by Camper and Nicholsons in 1931, Marala has endured a rich and fascinating history that has seen her withstand the trials of World War II and German U-boats. Her character, layout, and original engines have been well-preserved thanks to her few owners, and although her interior and superstructure have undergone modifications, she remains a Hollywood icon of elegance. Hosting distinguished guests such as Salvador Dali, Frank Sinatra, and international royalty throughout her lifetime, Marala continues to be cherished for her enduring charm and remarkable past.

Art Deco Interiors

Marala's interiors have been expertly restored by Muza Lab to showcase her original 1930s Art Deco design. The main salon is adorned with a skylight and working fireplace, while the dining area features wood paneling and period chandeliers, seating up to 12 guests. The result is an exquisite blend of luxury and timeless elegance.

The Legacy Continues

Transformed by Pendennis Shipyard, Marala takes opulence and exquisite detail to a whole new level. Over two years, the shipyard restored her original riveted construction by Charles E. Nicholson, refurbished her powertrains, replaced her timber, and installed a modern electrical system. The interior was also restored to its original Art-Deco glory by Muza Lab, using archives and original plans to create an authentic vision. The result is a breathtaking blend of nostalgia and modern luxury that pays homage to Marala's heritage.
