A closer look
The Aft Deck Sanctuary
The expansive aft deck serves as the yacht's social heart. Imagine sun-drenched breakfasts, the gentle lapping of waves against the hull providing a natural soundtrack. Later, as the sun dips below the horizon, it transforms into an al fresco dining room, bathed in the soft glow of twilight. The outdoor shower is a refreshing interlude after a swim, rinsing off the salt and leaving you invigorated for the evening's pleasures.
Saloon's Refined Comfort
Within the main saloon, cool air conditioning provides a welcome respite from the Mediterranean heat. Here, plush seating invites relaxed conversation or quiet contemplation. The indoor audio system and satellite TV offer entertainment should you desire it, while large panoramic windows ensure you never lose sight of the captivating seascape, transforming the interior into a moving tableau of ocean and sky.
Foredeck Lounge
The foredeck offers a prime vantage point for soaking in the sun's warmth and the panoramic vistas. Stretch out on the comfortable sunpads, a gentle sea breeze sweeping over you as the yacht glides through the cerulean waters. It is the ideal spot for a quiet read, a refreshing drink, or simply to marvel at the unblemished horizon, feeling utterly connected to the open ocean.
The Swim Platform
Seamlessly integrated into the yacht's design, the swim platform provides effortless access to the inviting waters below. This is your personal launchpad for aquatic adventures, whether it's a refreshing dip, clambering onto a paddleboard, or simply sitting at water level, hands trailing in the cool, clear sea. It’s a direct connection to the marine world, enhancing every swim and water-based activity.
Seamless Connectivity
Despite the feeling of splendid isolation, Wi-Fi connectivity ensures you remain gently tethered to the world, if you choose. Share a stunning sunset photograph, catch up on a brief email, or simply stream your favourite music through the indoor audio system. An iPod dock further enhances your personal entertainment options, allowing you to curate the perfect soundtrack for your Mediterranean escape.
Accommodation
TAIPAN gracefully accommodates ten guests across five thoughtfully appointed cabins, ensuring privacy and comfort for all. The layout is designed for harmonious cohabitation, with each space benefiting from the yacht's generous beam. Soft linens and subtle lighting create soothing retreats, perfect for unwinding after a day under the Mediterranean sun. While a dedicated master suite provides an elevated sense of space and seclusion, all cabins are oases of calm, promising restful nights as the yacht gently sways on the waves.
Culinary delights aboard are tailored to your preferences, with the dedicated crew taking inspiration from the vibrant flavours of the West Mediterranean. Meals are a celebration, whether served al fresco on the aft deck under a canopy of stars or in the comfortable saloon. Expect fresh, locally sourced ingredients transformed into delectable dishes, from light, refreshing lunches to more elaborate evening meals. Each dining experience is a moment to savour, complemented by the stunning backdrop of the sea.
While TAIPAN doesn't feature a dedicated spa, the entire yacht embodies a sense of wellbeing. The open air and gentle motion of sailing are inherently restorative. Start your day with a refreshing outdoor shower after a swim, feeling invigorated by the sea air. The expansive deck spaces invite sunbathing and quiet reflection, fostering a sense of calm and rejuvenation that only the open ocean can provide, leaving you feeling utterly refreshed.
TAIPAN’s toy chest ensures endless aquatic entertainment. Dive into the crystal-clear waters with Seabobs, or explore hidden coves on kayaks and paddleboards. For the thrill-seekers, a wakeboard and water skis (available for both adults and children) promise exhilarating rides. Test your balance on the kneeboard or windsurfer, or simply drift on floating mats. Even beach games are on hand for shoreside fun, ensuring every moment on and around the water is filled with engaging activity.

What a yacht like TAIPAN costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on TAIPAN 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.
