Michael Harrison

Michael Harrison is a 65-year-old English gentleman with two children and a lifelong passion for vintage cars.

Guided by tradition, family and quiet refinement, he keeps his yacht in the Mediterranean for measured sailings.
Whether cruising with loved ones or hosting close friends, he values privacy, meaningful connections and the rituals that turn time into memory.

Derived from aeternus in Latin, Eterna symbolizes timelessness and enduring beauty.

Eternal elegance, stories and uniqueness define Mr. Harrison’s passions and legacy.
The yacht will embody eternal moments, where lasting memories and meaningful experiences are created.

Its design will mirror the timeless sophistication of Mr. Harrison’s cars, celebrating elegance and craftsmanship in every detail.

STORY

Eterna is a vessel for memory, designed to host meaningful moments, that evolves into a living archive of personal experience.

Passion

Designed to feel instantly welcoming, the exterior cockpit features a cozy lounge area with custom cushions, soft materials and subtle details that create a relaxed atmosphere in harmony with the yacht’s overall sense of comfort and refinement.

The main deck offers a warm, open space shaped around the owner’s daily rituals, where soft textures, natural light and a central fireplace create a calm and familiar atmosphere. Personal details, such as curated automobilia and bespoke furnishings, express Michael Harrison’s identity in a setting conceived for connection, comfort and thoughtful living.

The entrance sets a quiet and intentional tone through stitched leather, chrome accents and a framed memory from the owner’s world. Subtle details such as automobilia shelving, tailored lighting and custom furnishings extend this language throughout, grounding the space in Michael Harrison’s personal sense of tradition and everyday elegance.

Shaped around the rhythms of everyday life, the owner’s suite is a refined and private retreat where soft tones, bespoke furnishings, subtle automotive references and balanced symmetry come together to reflect the shared elegance, intimacy and quiet luxury of Michael and Isabella Harrison.

Retreat

Each guest room is a private retreat, where calm tones, natural materials and refined finishes echo the yacht’s overall atmosphere, offering guests a sense of quiet luxury, generous space and a deep feeling of ease and belonging.

Conceived as a personal retreat, this dedicated room reflects the owner’s lifelong passion for cars, craftsmanship and quiet moments, bringing together model collections, vintage memorabilia and a bespoke bar to create a space that feels entirely his, immersive, familiar and deeply personal.
