Construction started in mid 1998 with the keel laid under the project name 'Mipos'. Launched in April 1999 this yacht undertook sea trials over the following months. She was delivered to her owners in September 1999.

Al Salamah's exterior design is a masterclass in maritime architecture, blending opulence with elegant, classical lines that belie her significant volume. This luxury vessel's impressive stature is complemented by a predominantly enclosed superstructure, offering ample protected space that ensures the comfort and privacy of those on board.
Interior Design
The yacht's interior amenities cater to every conceivable need and want. Unique features such as a car garage reflect the bespoke nature of Al Salamah, while the presence of three hospitals—one for the owner, one for guests, and one for the crew—ensures that health and safety are paramount. A hairdressing salon and a secretary's office are added conveniences that enhance the onboard experience.
Al Salamah is also equipped with five galleys, each designed to meet a variety of culinary requirements, whether it be for an intimate dinner, a lavish banquet, or the daily needs of the crew. The presence of a dedicated dressing room for artists underscores the yacht's commitment to entertainment and social gatherings, ensuring that every performance or event is delivered with impeccable style.

Al Salamah is the epitome of maritime luxury, offering unparalleled accommodation for guests who seek the utmost in comfort and exclusivity on the high seas. With an impressive capacity to host up to 40 guests, Al Salamah ensures that each individual experiences a personalized and private retreat within its grandeur.
The yacht's accommodation is spread across 20 opulent suites, each meticulously designed to provide a sanctuary of elegance and serenity. Among these, two are designated as owner's cabins, which are the pinnacle of luxury aboard Al Salamah.
Complementing the owner's cabins are 11 VIP cabins, each one a testament to luxury and comfort. These cabins are designed to offer guests a sumptuous stay with exceptional service, tailored to meet their every need while aboard.
For additional guests, Al Salamah also includes 8 twin cabins. These cabins, while slightly smaller, are no less luxurious and provide the perfect blend of comfort and elegance. Each twin cabin is finished to the highest standards, ensuring that all guests enjoy the same level of luxury and attention to detail.
The crew accommodation aboard Al Salamah is similarly well-appointed, with 23 staff cabins capable of housing up to 59 members of the owner's staff and security team.

The crew's quarters are designed to ensure that they can perform their duties at the highest level of efficiency while also providing them with comfortable living spaces.
Performance & Capabilities
At the heart of Al Salamah's robust performance are her twin diesel MTU (20V 1163 TB73) engines. Each of these 20-cylinder engines generates an impressive 8,837 horsepower while operating at 1250rpm, enabling this majestic vessel to cut through the waves with grace and efficiency. The power produced by these engines allows Al Salamah to achieve a top speed of 21 knots, which is notable for a yacht of her size and stature. When it comes to cruising, she demonstrates both elegance and endurance, maintaining a comfortable speed of 17 knots. This cruising speed strikes an optimal balance between fuel efficiency and swift passage, ensuring that guests can swiftly reach their next destination without sacrificing the luxurious experience onboard.
Understanding that comfort is paramount in luxury yachting, Al Salamah is equipped with stabilizers which play a crucial role in enhancing onboard comfort. These stabilizers are particularly effective when the yacht is at anchor, counteracting the motion of the sea to provide a stable and serene environment for guests. This feature is especially appreciated in rough waters, where the yacht's ability to minimize roll significantly improves the onboard experience.
Amenities
A gym with all the latest equipment allows her guests to keep their workout routines while at sea. In addition, a swim platform is on hand for guests looking to cool off in the sea. The yacht features a tender garage with storage for a range of toys and accessories. Air conditioning offers increased on-board comfort and an elevator makes the yacht fully-accessible.
