A closer look

The Aft Deck Horizon
Step onto the teak aft deck, where the ocean stretches boundlessly before you. This open-air haven is where the day’s adventures begin and end, whether it’s the quiet anticipation of a sunrise breakfast or the lively tales exchanged as the sun dips below the horizon. The gentle rocking of the vessel and the rhythmic crash of waves create a soothing backdrop, while comfortable seating invites lingering conversations and moments of serene contemplation, cooled by the sea breeze.

Sportfishing Command Centre
For those with a passion for the deep, the dedicated fishing cockpit is a masterclass in functionality. Equipped with professional-grade big-game fishing gear, every element is designed for the serious angler. The scent of fresh bait, the whir of a reel, and the taut line signaling a strike are the sensations that define this space. Here, the thrill of the chase becomes an immersive experience, guided by the expert crew, promising memorable encounters with the ocean's most formidable inhabitants.

Salon's Gentle Respite
Below deck, the main salon provides a refined sanctuary from the sun's embrace. Bathed in soft, ambient light, this air-conditioned space offers a comfortable lounge area where rich timber finishes and plush upholstery create an inviting atmosphere. It's an ideal spot for unwinding with a book, enjoying a quiet evening drink, or planning the next day's itinerary in comfort. The gentle hum of the yacht and the distant sound of the sea provide a calming soundtrack.

Flybridge Vista
Ascend to the flybridge, the yacht's elevated vantage point, offering panoramic views across the Atlantic. Feel the invigorating rush of the wind as the yacht glides effortlessly through the water. This open-air lounge is perfect for sun-worshippers and those who enjoy a bird’s-eye perspective of the coastline. It’s a prime spot for spotting marine life, observing the fishing action, or simply basking in the vastness of the ocean under an expansive sky.

Galley's Culinary Heart
Though compact, the galley is a meticulously organised space where the crew crafts delightful refreshments and light meals. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee in the morning or a savoury scent hinting at a delectable catch of the day often drifts through the air. It's the functional heart of the yacht, ensuring that every culinary need is met with efficiency and discreet service, enhancing the overall comfort of your journey.
Accommodation
The yacht features two well-appointed cabins, providing a tranquil haven for up to four guests. The master suite offers a generous berth and private facilities, designed for restful nights after days filled with ocean adventure. The guest cabin provides comfortable accommodation for additional companions. Each space is carefully considered, with thoughtful storage and a soothing colour palette, ensuring a peaceful retreat. The layout prioritises privacy and comfort, making it an ideal choice for families or close friends seeking an intimate charter experience.



Dining aboard is a relaxed affair, tailored to your preferences. Whether it's a casual breakfast on the aft deck, savouring the morning light, or a freshly caught seafood lunch prepared by the crew, the culinary focus is on quality and simplicity. Enjoy al fresco meals with the ocean as your backdrop, or a more intimate setting within the salon. The emphasis is on fresh, flavourful ingredients, ensuring each meal complements the yachting experience without unnecessary formality.
While DOUBLE DIAMOND does not feature a dedicated spa or gym, the entire yachting experience promotes a profound sense of well-being. The invigorating sea air, the soothing rhythm of the waves, and the thrill of outdoor activities like fishing contribute to a natural revitalisation. Each day spent on the water offers an opportunity to disconnect and immerse oneself in the restorative power of the ocean, leaving you refreshed and re-energised.
The primary on-water activity aboard DOUBLE DIAMOND is big-game fishing. The yacht is extensively equipped with professional-grade gear, lures, and tackle, ready for serious angling pursuits. Beyond the thrill of the catch, the East Coast waters offer opportunities for swimming and exploring secluded coves from the yacht’s direct access. The focus is on embracing the maritime environment and the exhilarating pursuit of sportfishing.

What a yacht like DOUBLE DIAMOND costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on DOUBLE DIAMOND is a fixed, all-in number. Ownership of a 18m 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.
