Broker Overview
This 2008 Lazzara 116, named 'Serenity,' represents a compelling opportunity in the large motor yacht market. What immediately sets this vessel apart is the comprehensive, multi-million dollar refit completed in 2025. This isn't a cosmetic refresh; it's an extensive upgrade that effectively makes her a much newer yacht in terms of systems, technology, and interior finishes. She features five staterooms, accommodating up to twelve guests, which is a significant advantage for charter potential or large family use. The twin MTU Series 2000 16-cylinder engines provide reliable power, and the mention of low hours, coupled with full-time crew maintenance, indicates a vessel that has been professionally managed. Zero-speed stabilizers enhance comfort at anchor, a critical feature for yachts of this size. The integration of modern amenities like a Control4 AV system and iPad controls, along with a Jacuzzi and hydraulic swim platform, positions her as a turnkey solution for entertainment and luxury cruising. For a buyer seeking a proven platform with the benefits of recent investment, 'Serenity' offers a strong value proposition, particularly when considering the cost of new construction or undertaking such a refit yourself. Her past charter history also suggests a vessel capable of generating income, which can be a key consideration.
Why This Boat Stands Out
Complete multi-million dollar refit in 2025 – effectively a 'new' yacht in key areas.
Five staterooms accommodating twelve guests, ideal for charter or large groups.
Zero-speed stabilizers and modern smart yacht technology (Control4, iPad integration).
Professionally maintained by full-time crew with low engine hours.

Expert Review
The Lazzara 116 is a well-regarded platform, known for its spacious interiors and practical layouts. Build quality from this era of Lazzara is generally solid, utilizing fiberglass construction for durability. 'Serenity' benefits significantly from its recent refit, which addresses many of the typical wear-and-tear items and updates dated systems often found on yachts of this vintage. The MTU Series 2000 engines are a robust choice, offering good performance and reliability, though their maintenance demands are higher than smaller diesels. When surveying, particular attention should be paid to the quality and documentation of the 2025 refit – ensure all major systems, especially plumbing, electrical, and HVAC, were properly addressed. Inspect the condition of the running gear and ensure stabilizer service records are current. Comparables might include similar-sized Westport or Hargrave yachts from the same period, but few will offer the advantage of such a recent, extensive refit. This vessel presents a strong value proposition for a buyer prioritizing modern amenities and updated systems without the new build price tag.

COMPLETE REFIT IN 2025!
Fresh from a million-plus dollar refit in 2025, Serenity is a stunning 116’ Lazzara featuring five luxurious staterooms, Zero Speed stabilizers, and the latest in smart yacht technology.

From a Jacuzzi and hydraulic swim platform to a state-of-the-art Control4 AV system and 2025 iPad integration, Serenity is designed for ultimate comfort and effortless entertaining. She has an excellent past charter history and could possibly be used for bonus depreciation purposes.

Very few yachts can match the endless features SERENITY has and none can match the statement she makes everywhere she goes. Her exterior styling is a combination of long sweeping modern lines with timeless design touches everywhere you look. In near perfect condition, SERENITY has been tirelessly maintained by a full time crew from day one. A complete refit in 2025 along with detailed meticulous maintenance records speak to the owner's desire to keep SERENITY perfect at any cost.
