A closer look

Aft Deck Al Fresco
The aft deck serves as the yacht's social heart, where the aroma of a freshly grilled lunch from the onboard BBQ mingles with the sea breeze. Gather around the polished teak table, shaded from the midday sun, for vibrant conversation or quiet contemplation. As evening descends, the space transforms into an ideal setting for sundowners, the gentle sway of the yacht providing a soothing rhythm to the coastal twilight.

Saloon's Refined Comfort
Step inside to discover a saloon bathed in natural light, a sanctuary of cool air-conditioned comfort. Plush seating invites relaxation, perhaps with a good book or engaging conversation. The integrated indoor audio system provides a curated soundtrack to your journey, creating an atmosphere of refined tranquility as the scenery of the East Coast glides by through panoramic windows. Every detail speaks to thoughtful design and effortless style.

Foredeck Sun Lounging
The foredeck offers a prime vantage point for soaking in the coastal panoramas. Here, expansive sun pads beckon, providing the perfect spot to recline and feel the warmth of the sun on your skin. With the yacht gliding smoothly over the water, this private haven is ideal for quiet moments, whether it's enjoying a morning coffee with a view or simply watching the world drift by in serene seclusion.

Flybridge Vista
Ascend to the flybridge, an elevated realm offering expansive views of the surrounding coastline. This open-air space provides an exhilarating perspective, perfect for spotting dolphins or simply enjoying the vastness of the ocean. Whether you're navigating through a bustling harbour or cruising along a tranquil stretch of shore, the flybridge offers an unparalleled sense of freedom and connection to the maritime environment.

Stabilised Serenity
Experience unparalleled comfort even at anchor, thanks to the yacht's advanced stabiliser system. This technology ensures a remarkably steady platform, transforming any bay or cove into a perfectly still haven. Whether you're enjoying a peaceful night's sleep or a leisurely meal, the absence of motion enhances every moment, allowing for complete relaxation and undistracted enjoyment of your surroundings.
Accommodation
Below deck, six guests are comfortably accommodated across three meticulously appointed cabins. The master suite, a private sanctuary, offers a serene retreat with its own en-suite facilities and ample storage. Two additional guest cabins provide equally inviting spaces, each designed with an emphasis on comfort and discretion. The layout ensures a sense of privacy for all on board, fostering a peaceful atmosphere conducive to restorative rest after days spent exploring the vibrant East Coast. Every cabin is a testament to sophisticated design and practical elegance.



Culinary delights are a cornerstone of any journey. Onboard, the dedicated crew craft bespoke menus tailored to your preferences, utilising the freshest local ingredients sourced from the East Coast's bountiful larder. Enjoy casual al fresco lunches grilled on the aft deck BBQ, or more formal evening meals served in the elegant saloon. Each dish is prepared with care, transforming every meal into a memorable occasion, complemented by fine wines and the ever-present backdrop of stunning coastal scenery.
While not a dedicated spa yacht, the serene atmosphere fostered by the at-anchor stabilisers ensures a sense of calm and well-being. The air-conditioned interiors provide a cool retreat from the summer sun, allowing for comfortable relaxation. Guests can unwind on the sun pads, enjoy invigorating swims directly from the yacht, or simply find solace in the quiet comfort of their private cabins, all contributing to a revitalising escape.
The yacht provides direct access to the water, inviting spontaneous dips into the refreshing coastal waters. While not equipped with a vast array of water toys, the ease of access and the inviting cruising grounds of the East Coast encourage swimming, snorkelling in calm coves, and exploring picturesque anchorages. The focus remains on immersing guests in the natural beauty of the surroundings, with the yacht serving as the perfect platform for aquatic enjoyment.

What a yacht like LONG STORY SHORT costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on LONG STORY SHORT is a fixed, all-in number. Ownership of a 17m 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.
