A closer look
The Aft Deck Sanctuary
The aft deck serves as the heart of social interaction, a sun-kissed expanse where the line between indoor and outdoor living blurs. Settle into the plush, cream-coloured seating, feeling the gentle sea breeze across your skin as the yacht glides through turquoise waters. Mornings are for hushed coffees, watching the islands awaken, while evenings transform into vibrant gatherings under a canopy of stars, the soft lapping of the ocean a constant, calming soundtrack.
Panoramic Main Saloon
Within the main saloon, expansive windows frame ever-changing seascapes, inviting the Caribbean's vibrant palette indoors. The polished timber and soft, neutral furnishings create an atmosphere of understated elegance, a comfortable retreat from the midday sun. It’s a space designed for quiet contemplation, engaging conversation, or simply losing oneself in a captivating book, all while remaining intimately connected to the stunning maritime panorama just beyond the glass.
Flybridge Vista
Ascend to the flybridge, where the horizon stretches infinitely before you. This elevated perch offers unparalleled views of the passing scenery, from verdant volcanic peaks to the shimmering expanse of the open sea. Feel the exhilarating rush of wind as the yacht cuts through the waves, finding a secluded spot to bask in the sun or joining the captain as he navigates toward your next idyllic anchorage. It’s an exhilarating perspective of your island journey.
Forward Sun Lounge
At the bow, a generous sun lounge beckons. Here, two vast sunpads invite complete surrender to the sun's warmth, offering an uninterrupted view forward as you cruise. Imagine the sensation of the yacht's gentle motion beneath you, the whisper of the wind, and the expansive blue sky overhead. It’s the perfect spot for sunbathing in blissful solitude, or for sharing an intimate moment as the sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky in fiery hues.
Intimate Helm Station
The interior helm station provides a commanding view, a sophisticated nexus of navigation and control. Observe the captain's skillful hand at the wheel, surrounded by an array of gleaming instruments. The comfortable seating here allows for engaging conversation with the crew, offering a unique insight into the art of yachting, all while enjoying the air-conditioned comfort and protection from the elements, yet still feeling fully engaged with the journey.
Accommodation
Four beautifully appointed cabins provide restful havens for eight guests, each a private sanctuary after exhilarating days. The master suite, positioned for optimal comfort and quiet, boasts a generous bed and ample storage, creating a serene personal retreat. The remaining cabins are configured with versatility in mind, ensuring every guest enjoys a comfortable and private space, all finished with a refined palette and soft lighting. Each cabin is designed to maximise natural light while offering privacy, ensuring peaceful slumber and refreshing mornings, ready for another day of Caribbean exploration.
Culinary delights are crafted to individual preferences, served in a variety of breathtaking settings. Imagine breakfast al fresco on the aft deck, the scent of the sea mingling with freshly brewed coffee, or a candlelit dinner under a blanket of stars on the flybridge. The compact yet efficient galley allows the single crew member to prepare delicious, light fare, utilising the freshest local ingredients, ensuring each meal is a delightful highlight of your journey, tailored to your tastes.
While not a dedicated spa vessel, the yacht offers ample opportunity for restorative wellness. The vast deck spaces encourage sun worship and gentle stretches under the open sky. The invitingly warm Caribbean Sea is your personal spa, perfect for invigorating swims directly from the swim platform. Each day provides a chance to reset, to breathe deeper, and to reconnect with the natural rhythms of the ocean, fostering a profound sense of well-being.
The warm Caribbean waters are your playground, easily accessed via the yacht's swim platform. While specific inventory varies, expect a selection of essentials to enhance your time in the water. From snorkelling gear to explore vibrant coral reefs to perhaps a paddleboard for a tranquil morning glide, the focus is on effortless enjoyment of the aquatic environment. The compact nature of the yacht ensures swift deployment, maximising your time spent playing in the crystal-clear shallows.

What a yacht like BETTER BOAT costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on BETTER BOAT is a fixed, all-in number. Ownership of a 20m yacht in this class is a five-year commitment — crew payroll, insurance, class and refit reserves, berthing and depreciation. Our yacht ownership vs charter vs fractional ownership study runs the real five-year cost of a €15 million yacht against the equivalent charter spend, and the most profitable yachts for owners ranking shows how much of that stack charter revenue actually recovers.
