This open-air haven, complete with an outdoor shower, invites refreshing dips after a swim or a gentle rinse of sea salt from your skin. Here, the gentle lapping of waves against the hull provides a calming soundtrack, ideal for a quiet read with a coffee as the coastline drifts by, or for simply watching the world unfurl from a comfortable vantage point.

Saloon Sanctuary

Below deck, the saloon offers a sophisticated respite from the midday sun. Rich timber panelling and plush seating create an inviting atmosphere, perfect for unwinding. The integrated indoor audio system fills the space with your chosen melodies, while the discreetly placed TV offers entertainment should the mood strike. Large windows allow natural light to filter in, connecting the interior's comfort with the ever-changing seascape outside.

Private Swim Platform

The integrated swim platform provides effortless access to the refreshing ocean waters. This expansive area, just above the waterline, becomes your private beach club. From here, one can easily launch paddleboards or simply recline at sea level, feeling the gentle undulations of the ocean. It’s a seamless transition from the yacht's comfort to the invigorating embrace of the sea, making every dip an occasion.

Dining

While MERLIN does not feature a dedicated chef, the yacht's galley is perfectly suited for preparing light, fresh meals and delightful snacks. Enjoy al fresco breakfasts on the aft deck, with the sea breeze as your companion, or intimate dinners in the saloon's refined setting. Provisions can be tailored to your preferences prior to embarkation, allowing for bespoke culinary experiences, from gourmet picnics on secluded beaches to elegant evening canapés served as the sun dips below the horizon.

Wellness

For moments of invigorating wellness, MERLIN offers direct access to the sea via her expansive swim platform. Take a refreshing dip in the ocean, or rinse off under the outdoor shower. The gentle rocking of the yacht and the constant sea air provide a natural sense of calm and rejuvenation. While lacking a dedicated gym or spa, the ocean itself becomes your wellness sanctuary, inviting swimming, gentle exercise, and pure relaxation.

Toys & Tenders

MERLIN carries a delightful selection of water toys to enhance your coastal adventures. Explore hidden coves and tranquil bays on the stable paddleboards, offering a unique perspective of the shoreline. Or, for a more relaxed aquatic experience, drift lazily on the floating mats, soaking up the sun and the gentle movements of the sea. These amenities ensure every moment on the water is filled with engaging and enjoyable activity.

Ownership economics

What a yacht like MERLIN costs to own — not just to charter

A charter week on MERLIN is a fixed, all-in number. Ownership of a 13m 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.
