In the footsteps of Roland Emmerich: The legendary yacht Maid Marian 2 is available for charter in Greece.

A piece of history afloat

The classic motor yacht owned by German Hollywood director Roland Emmerich combines timeless glamour with exclusive experiences in the Aegean Sea.

For those seeking an extraordinary way to experience Greece, the Maid Marian 2 is one of the most fascinating charter yachts in the Mediterranean. The 33-metre motor yacht belongs to German film director Roland Emmerich and is one of the last pre-war yachts of its kind still in active service. Since May, it has once again been available for private charter trips in Greek waters.




The vessel’s history dates back to 1931, when she was originally constructed on the Hudson River in New York under the name Cleopatra. During World War II she served as a patrol boat for the U.S. Coast Guard, later passed into the possession of Palm Beach society, and eventually made her way to Asia. Since Roland Emmerich took ownership in 2007, the vessel has undergone fastidious restoration and technical updating while retaining her essential historic character.





On board, classic elegance meets contemporary comfort. Original teak decks, meticulously preserved details, and expansive outdoor areas evoke the golden age of yachting. At the same time, five stylish cabins accommodate up to ten guests, who are attended to by a six-person crew.





Particularly appealing is the opportunity to discover the Greek islands far from the bustle of major ports. Whether cruising the Cyclades, the Ionian Islands, or secluded coves of the Aegean, the Maid Marian 2 becomes a private retreat on the water. Water-sports equipment such as Seabobs, stand-up paddleboards, kayaks, and snorkeling gear is as much a part of the amenities as expansive sun decks for languid hours on board.

For Emmerich himself, the yacht is far more than a luxurious mode of transportation. In interviews, he has described it as his “home away from home”—a place of peace and inspiration, far removed from the hustle and bustle of Hollywood. This is precisely what makes the Maid Marian 2 so special: she is not just another interchangeable superyacht, but a one-of-a-kind vessel with history, personality, and soul. Those who charter her are not merely booking a voyage through the Greek archipelago but also a passage back in time to the glamorous heyday of yachting. For connoisseurs of classic motor yachts, she offers one of Europe’s most exclusive charter experiences.
