A closer look

The Aft Deck Sanctuary
Beneath the dappled shade of the overhang, the aft deck serves as the yacht’s social heart. Here, the ocean breeze carries the scent of salt and sun, inviting long, languid afternoons. Plush seating embraces a polished dining table, perfect for al-fresco meals as the sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky in fiery hues. It's a space where conversations flow easily, punctuated by the gentle lapping of waves against the hull.

Saloon's Panoramic Vistas
Step into the saloon, where expansive windows frame an ever-changing canvas of sea and sky. The interior, refreshed in 2024, exudes a relaxed elegance, marrying comfort with understated style. A generous sofa invites quiet contemplation or lively discussion, while the integrated TV provides entertainment. This bright, airy space connects seamlessly with the outdoors, ensuring you never feel truly separated from the breathtaking natural beauty surrounding you.

The Foredeck Lounge
Beyond the mast, the foredeck unfurls as a vast, open expanse, perfect for basking in the tropical sun. Imagine the sensation of warm teak underfoot as you stretch out on comfortable cushions, feeling the yacht’s gentle motion. This area transforms into an idyllic private retreat, offering uninterrupted views of the horizon – ideal for spotting passing marine life or simply enjoying the vastness of the ocean.

Commanding Helm Station
At the helm, the captain orchestrates each journey with precision and expertise. While primarily a workspace, the design allows for guest interaction, offering a fascinating glimpse into the art of navigation. The array of instruments and the clear sightlines forward provide a sense of connection to the vessel's powerful capabilities, as she gracefully carves through the water towards your next destination.

Integrated BBQ & Bar
Adjacent to the main dining area, a well-appointed BBQ station awaits, ready to transform fresh catches into culinary delights. This outdoor cooking hub, paired with a compact bar area, facilitates effortless entertaining. Imagine the sizzle of grilled seafood and the clinking of glasses as laughter echoes across the deck, all while immersed in the stunning natural theatre of Oceania.
Accommodation
Each of the three cabins offers a private sanctuary, designed for restful slumber after days filled with adventure. The layout provides a comfortable retreat for six guests, with thoughtful details ensuring complete relaxation. Light-filled and inviting, the spaces are configured to maximise comfort and privacy, allowing each guest to unwind in their personal haven. Crisp linens and a soothing palette create an atmosphere of understated luxury, promising peaceful nights at anchor or under sail.



Culinary experiences aboard are crafted with fresh, local ingredients, showcasing the vibrant flavours of Oceania. Meals can be enjoyed al-fresco on the main deck, with the ocean as your backdrop, or in the comfortable saloon. The crew excels at creating personalised menus, from casual beach picnics to elegant dinners, often featuring the day's catch. The integrated BBQ adds a delightful dimension to outdoor dining, enhancing the sensory pleasure of each meal.
While formal spa facilities are not present, the yacht’s connection to the natural environment fosters an inherent sense of well-being. The vast ocean and fresh air are the ultimate rejuvenators. Start your day with a swim in crystal-clear waters, or find a quiet corner on deck for meditation. The tranquil pace of life at sea, away from daily demands, offers a profound sense of calm and rejuvenation.
The ocean is your playground with a selection of engaging water toys. Glide across the surface on paddleboards, catch a wave with the surfboard, or feel the thrill of being pulled behind the tender on the towable tube. For those seeking more exhilaration, adult water skis and a wakeboard are readily available, promising endless hours of aquatic fun and adventure in the warm, inviting waters.

SLIM: your questions, answered
The most common questions we receive about chartering SLIM. For anything specific to your dates, guest list or itinerary, message us directly.
What a yacht like SLIM costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on SLIM 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.
