Our Thoughts

The 2026 Maiora 36 Exuma represents a sophisticated evolution of the award-winning Exuma platform—a 121-foot motor yacht that successfully bridges the comfort and volume of a traditional flybridge design with the adventurous capability and shallow-water performance of a true explorer vessel. This is a custom-build opportunity with Maiora, where every detail, layout configuration, and interior-exterior blend can be tailored to the owner's specific vision.

Designed by Quartostile for exterior styling and Acube Design for interior architecture, the 36 Exuma delivers a thoughtfully conceived layout that prioritizes fluid transitions between living spaces and seamless indoor-outdoor connectivity. Natural light flows throughout, creating an open, airy atmosphere whether you're relaxing at anchor or transiting between destinations.

The flybridge features a climate-controlled sky-lounge that can be opened to the elements, providing flexible entertaining and lounging options with commanding sightlines. The stern area offers a choice of configurations: a fully equipped beach club at sea level for water access and tender operations, or an enclosed design with a wide infinity staircase leading to a garage for secure toy storage and custom water-sports management.

Propulsion & Performance

The Exuma's three-waterjet propulsion system is the standout performance feature. You can specify either 3x2000 hp or 3x2600 hp engines, delivering maximum speeds of 32 to 35 knots while maintaining exceptional comfort and virtually vibration-free cruising. The shallow 1.45-meter draft—a major advantage in any waterjet design—opens access to pristine shallow-water anchorages throughout the Bahamas, Exumas, Abacos, and similar destinations where traditional deep-draft yachts cannot venture. Extreme maneuverability complements this shallow-draft advantage, making anchoring, docking, and tight-quarters maneuvering intuitive and confident.

Fuel & Water Capacity

With 5,679 gallons of fuel capacity and 793 gallons of fresh water, the 36 Exuma is equipped for extended cruising without frequent refueling stops, supporting both leisurely exploration and longer offshore passages.

Beam & Draft

At 26 feet of beam and 4.75 feet of draft, the yacht offers generous interior volume and stability while maintaining the shallow-water performance that defines the Exuma line.

Every Maiora is built as a bespoke project, meaning this 36 Exuma can be configured precisely to your preferences—from the blend of open and sheltered exterior spaces, to cabin count and layout, to interior finishes and technology. This level of customization ensures that your yacht reflects your cruising priorities, whether that's luxury entertaining, family exploration, or a combination of both.

Maiora 36 Exuma: A 121-Foot Explorer Yacht Redefining Versatility and Luxury
The Maiora 36 Exuma represents a bold evolution in the explorer yacht category, merging the spatial grandeur and refined comfort of traditional flybridge motor yachts with the adventurous capability and shallow-draft exploration credentials that modern owners increasingly demand. At 121 feet in length with a 26-foot beam and 4.75-foot draft, this 2026 custom build delivers a rare combination of volume, performance, and design flexibility that positions it as a distinctive choice for discerning cruisers and explorers seeking both luxury and functional versatility.
Design Philosophy and Customization
Maiora's approach to yacht construction centers on the principle that every owner is unique, and therefore every vessel should reflect that individuality. The 36 Exuma embodies this philosophy through a design collaboration between Quartostile, responsible for the exterior form and spatial flow, and Acube Design, which shapes the interior aesthetic and functional layout. The result is a yacht that transcends the conventional boundaries between explorer and luxury cruiser, offering owners the ability to customize nearly every detail—from the blend of interior and exterior living spaces to the specific configuration of onboard amenities. This level of personalization extends beyond cosmetic choices; it fundamentally shapes how the yacht functions as a floating home and adventure platform. Owners can tailor the balance between climate-controlled interior spaces and open-air deck areas, adjust the relationship between cabin accommodations and garage storage, and configure entertainment and relaxation zones to match their intended use patterns, whether that means extended blue-water cruising, seasonal island hopping, or active water-sports exploration.
Exterior Spaces and Deck Configuration
The 36 Exuma's exterior design emphasizes fluid transitions between distinct functional zones. The flybridge serves as a climate-controlled sky-lounge, creating an elevated observation and entertaining platform that can be opened to the elements or fully enclosed depending on weather and preference. This flexibility allows owners to enjoy panoramic views and fresh-air cruising in favorable conditions while maintaining climate comfort during challenging weather or when pursuing other activities. The stern configuration offers meaningful choice. Owners may opt for a fully equipped beach club at sea level—a dedicated area for water access, swimming, water sports, and casual entertaining—or alternatively select an enclosed stern design featuring a wide infinity staircase that provides aesthetic continuity while concealing a garage space for custom management and storage of tenders, jet skis, diving equipment, or other water toys. This design decision fundamentally affects how the yacht interfaces with the water and how owners utilize their time at anchor in shallow-draft destinations. The 121-foot length and 26-foot beam create substantial deck real estate, allowing for generous forward seating areas, protected side decks that facilitate safe movement around the vessel, and thoughtfully proportioned entertaining spaces that don't feel cramped or utilitarian. The continuous interplay between interior and exterior spaces, enhanced by abundant natural light that floods through large windows and openings, creates an airy, connected feel that distinguishes the 36 Exuma from more traditional enclosed motor yachts.
Propulsion and Performance
The 36 Exuma's propulsion system represents one of its most distinctive technical features. Rather than conventional shaft-driven or pod-drive propulsion, the yacht employs a three-waterjet propulsion system that fundamentally changes its performance envelope and operational characteristics. Maiora offers two engine configurations for the Exuma line: a 3x2000 horsepower setup or a 3x2600 horsepower option, both delivering the performance and maneuverability that waterjet propulsion systems are known for. With the higher-output engine selection, the yacht achieves a maximum speed of 35 knots, while the standard configuration reaches 32 knots—both figures representing genuinely thrilling performance for a 121-foot displacement cruiser. More importantly, waterjet propulsion delivers these speeds with minimal vibration, a characteristic that significantly enhances the cruising comfort during extended passages. The shallow draft of approximately 1.45 meters (4.75 feet) represents a transformative capability for an explorer yacht of this size. This shallow draft allows owners to anchor and explore near pristine beaches, navigate through shallow waters, and access destinations that would be impossible for conventional deep-draft yachts. In the Bahamas —where the 36 Exuma's design is clearly optimized—this capability opens access to the turquoise waters and white-sand beaches of Cat Island, the Abacos, Paradise Island, and the Exuma Cays, destinations where traditional yachts cannot venture. Waterjet propulsion also delivers extreme maneuverability. The absence of a rudder and the vectored thrust of the jets enable precise directional control, rapid course changes, and the ability to hold position in currents or wind conditions with remarkable precision. For an owner planning to explore remote anchorages, navigate tight channels, or position the yacht in challenging holding conditions, this operational advantage translates into greater safety, confidence, and operational freedom.
Interior Layout and Accommodations
While specific cabin configurations depend on the owner's customization choices, the 36 Exuma's 121-foot length and 26-foot beam provide substantial volume for sleeping accommodations, dining and entertaining spaces, and crew quarters. The design emphasizes continuity between interior and exterior spaces, allowing the yacht to feel open and connected rather than compartmentalized. The integration of the climate-controlled sky-lounge on the flybridge creates an additional entertaining and relaxation space that effectively extends the yacht's usable living area. This space can accommodate social gatherings, quiet contemplation, or observation of the surrounding seascape, depending on how the owner configures and utilizes it. The galley, salon, and dining areas benefit from the abundant natural light and visual connection to exterior spaces that characterizes the 36 Exuma's design philosophy. Rather than creating isolated interior zones, Maiora's design approach maintains sightlines and spatial flow, allowing occupants to remain visually and psychologically connected to the marine environment while enjoying the comfort and climate control of interior spaces.
Fuel and Water Capacity
The 36 Exuma carries 5,679 gallons of fuel and 793 gallons of fresh water. These substantial capacities support extended cruising without frequent refueling stops, a particularly valuable feature for owners planning to explore remote areas or undertake longer passages between supply points. The fuel capacity, combined with the efficiency characteristics of waterjet propulsion and the yacht's size and weight, supports meaningful range and operational flexibility.
The Explorer Yacht Category
The 36 Exuma occupies a distinctive position within the modern explorer yacht category. Rather than emphasizing extreme range, rugged construction, or expedition capabilities, it blends the volume, comfort, and entertaining appeal of a luxury flybridge yacht with the shallow-draft exploration capability and maneuverability that define explorer vessels. This positioning appeals to owners who refuse to compromise between comfort and capability—those seeking to cruise in style to remote destinations rather than rough it in pursuit of adventure. The emphasis on customization and the flexibility to configure interior and exterior spaces reflects an understanding that modern luxury yacht owners value personalization and the ability to shape their vessel to match their specific vision and use patterns. The 36 Exuma is not a one-size-fits-all product; it is a platform for creating a truly individual floating home.
Why This Yacht Matters
In a market often dominated by either traditional luxury cruisers or purpose-built explorers, the Maiora 36 Exuma offers a thoughtfully considered alternative. The combination of 121-foot length, shallow 1.45-meter draft, three-waterjet propulsion delivering 32-35 knots, and design flexibility creates a vessel that genuinely expands what is possible in terms of destination access and cruising experience. For owners with the vision to customize a yacht to their exact specifications and the desire to explore pristine waters while maintaining luxury comfort, the 36 Exuma represents a compelling opportunity to own a truly individual vessel.
