Marlena is a 144' (43.9 m) Sport Fisherman originally built by Trinity Yachts in 1998 and received an extensive refit and extension in 2005.

Marlena is a upscale sport superyacht that is able to sleep as many as 11 guests on board and has approximately 7 crew members onboard to ensure a relaxed luxury yacht experience. The superyacht was designed by Trinity Yachts and Sharp Design and Dee completed her interior design.

Marlena is powered by 2 Paxman VP185 engines rated at 3,500 horsepower each. This gives her a comfortable cruising speed of 23 knots and a top speed of 26 knots. She carries 9,800 gallons of fuel and burns approximately 275 gph at cruising speed. This gives her a range of about 800 nm including reserve fuel for an additional 100 nm at a cruising speed of 23 knots. For long deliveries, a hull speed of 12 knots on a single engine will extend her range to about 1400 nm.

Though serious sport fishing is her heritage, the interior is yacht quality throughout. The lower decks consist of the master stateroom amidships with 4 guest cabins forward. The crew quarters are aft of the engine room with berths for 6 plus captain's cabin. On the main deck are an aft outer settee overlooking the cockpit, the main salon, a formal dining salon, and the galley/crew mess. The pilothouse deck consists of the main helm station and associated equipment, port and starboard helm stations, sky lounge, and aft outer al fresco dining area, and large Jacuzzi with sun beds. Above this is the Flybridge deck consisting of fore and aft facing helm stations with forward and aft settee areas. Forward of the main helm station is a large sun pad lounge.
