Two super luxury yachts, Attessa IV and Cloudbreak, have been anchored in Puerto Vallarta since the beginning of the year. Valued at $250 million and $150 million, respectively, these yachts have been a regular sight in the marina for several years. The owner of Attessa IV is the U.S. entrepreneur Dennis Washington, ranked 83rd among the world’s richest by Forbes with a fortune of $6 billion. The yacht offers amenities like a gym, spa, massage room, luxurious cabins for 28 guests, and a helipad.
Attessa IV arrived in Puerto Vallarta a few weeks ago, and while its departure date is uncertain, it typically sets sail at the end of January or early February, as observed in previous years. This award-winning yacht, honored as the best luxury vessel at the 2011 World Superyacht Awards, stands out for its design and the onboard helicopter, allowing passengers to reach remote beaches or land locations.
Originally named Evergreen, the yacht was built in 1999 for Taiwanese shipping magnate Chang Yung-fa and later purchased by current owner Dennis Washington in 2007. The Cloudbreak, another superyacht in Puerto Vallarta, is a 72.5-meter vessel built in 2016, known for its sophisticated design by luxury yacht architect Espen Øino and interiors by Parisian designer Christian Liaigre. It features high-tech amenities, a helideck, a large fireplace, and claims to have the world’s biggest toy chest.
Cloudbreak is considered a high-volume yacht, resembling a floating high-tech chalet with extensive fitness and spa areas, modern lighting, and sound systems. With 7 cabins that accommodate 12 guests and a crew of 22, the yacht’s name is inspired by the famous Cloudbreak wave in Fiji, capturing the adventurous spirit of its owners, guests, and clients.
1975 Vancouver Vancouver-27 Offshore Cutter
- Description
Seller's Description
Are you looking for a comfortable well-found offshore cruiser at an affordable price? Wendelin is one of those good ole boats. A proven design with a pedigree that includes sailing to New Zealand, Hawaii and Mexico (three separate trips which all departed from the Pacific Northwest). Weve owned Wendelin since July 2000. In 2009-10 we completed a refit before sailing north around the northern tip of Vancouver Island, south to Puerto Vallarta Mexico, and up the Sea of Cortez to Guaymas. We’ve had the most amazing adventures in the Sea of Cortez and south along Pacific Mexico. She is currently stored on-the-hard in a secure privately owned facility in San Blas Mexico (just north of Puerto Vallarta, 80 or so NM along the Riviera Nayarit, past Sayulita, Rincon de Guaybitos etc.)
The sails, halyards and sheets are all in good shape. The upper and lower shrouds were upgraded in 2010. The interior was recently painted but is in need of a couple of coats of varnish. The topsides could use a paint job as could the deckif youre particularly enthusiasticand needing something to do other than sail😊 The bottom is in great shape. It received a fresh coat of bottom paint in Feb of 2024. There have never been blisters on her hull. In 2000 three coats of inter-protect were applied. The 12 hsp single-cylinder Yanmar diesel is not running at the moment. A rebuild of the head is underway.
Wendelin is a great boat, very well equipped, sea-kindly with a very balanced helm. She has been a good friend to us. Shed work well for a experienced single-hander with a passion for sailing and exploration. Knowledge and experience with diesel engines would be a plus.
For more information about this classic design, we can provide a copy of Robert Harris book Tracks on the Water about the origins of the Vancouver 27 and the article Test of Time Vancouver 27 published in the Classic Boat Magazine (June 2009).
Asking price $12,500 CAD ($9,500 USD)
Equipment: Please see to our ad on Craiglist Victoria for a detailed list of the equipment on board….and for more photos.
Rig and Sails
Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
Sail Area / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3
- SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
- D : Displacement in pounds.
Ballast / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
Displacement / Length Ratio
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
Comfort Ratio
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
- LOA: Length overall in feet
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
Capsize Screening Formula
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
From BlueWaterBoats.org :
The first in the Vancouver Yacht series, the Vancouver 27 is a ‘go anywhere’ pocket cruiser designed by Canadian Robert Harris in 1972. This sturdy 27-foot cutter was squarely aimed for couples looking to sail the world’s oceans. Purpose built for exactly this purpose, the first boat sailed successfully from British Columbia to New Zealand and back. The solid good-looking design attracted enough attention that molds were made from the second boat built. Various versions went on to be produced in Canada and in England and more than 250 have been built in total including the extended 28 foot version, the Vancouver 28, which is still being made in England today. Canadian production ended when the molds were destroyed by a storm in 1988.
Though small and relatively heavy, she’s uncompromising with few concessions to speed and performance. Under the waterline there’s a full keel with a cutaway forefoot which gives her a stable helm and good balance on all points of sail. In the UK the design was tweaked by adding three inches to the beam at the waterline to stiffen her up, the result being a pronounced tumblehome in the hull which the Canadian boats don’t have.
In breaking seas her high freeboard, neat cockpit and built in bridge deck help prevent water below. Her propeller and rudder are protected from grounding and fouling damage by the set-up of her keel, skeg and stern-post. Lots of headroom, plenty of stowage space and ease of handling are characteristic. As would be expected by the design she’s not fast nor particularly close winded but she’s easy to handle in all conditions and ideal for a short-handed crew. English sailor Rona House can testify to this having completed a solo circumnavigation in her Vancouver 27. The cutter rig gives maximum sail plan versatility and the outboard rudder allows for use of self-steering mechanisms that are a cruiser’s best friend on long passages. Experience has shown that her traditional hull design copes easily with the rigors of offshore passages, even when chock full of cruising gear.
Inside the Vancouver 27 is a sensible small-boat layout just made for a couple at sea with three berths being the norm, although a four berth layout was also available. The three berth version has no berth forward but instead has the third berth aft in the saloon leaving plenty room for stowage up front as well as space for a generously sized quarter berth, galley and chart table. 6′ 6″ of headroom heads up the comfort factor inside.
Buyer’s Notes
The majority of boats are to be found in the UK although some can still be found in North America. New boat prices can be obtained from Northshore yachts and a current search of the used boat market reveals prices for these boats between 12,200 – 26,600 Pounds Sterling or 19,500- 41,500 Canadian dollars depending on age and condition. Although no major problems have been discovered, the heel of the rudder is one weak point that needs careful inspection.

Boat Rentals, Sailing Tours, Private Catamarans, & Yacht Charters in Puerto Vallarta
There is no better place to appreciate the beauty of the region than sitting on the deck of a boat. Feel the fresh sea breeze in your face and the wind in your hair while you enjoy the beauty of Banderas Bay. There are multiple Puerto Vallarta boat tour operators and private charters to rent out fishing boats, party catamarans, and luxury yachts for a few hours or even a couple of days. There is something for everyone, including snorkeling trips, booze cruises, sailing tours, and more.
Fishing Charters
Puerto vallarta boat tours.
Below are our 7 favorite boat tours in Puerto Vallarta, including trips to Las Marietas Islands, South Shore, and snorkeling at Los Arcos. Popular spots to visit in the bay are:

Marietas Islands Boat Tours
Designated a world heritage site in 2004, the Islas Marietas National Park tour is undoubtedly one of the best things to do in Puerto Vallarta . These islands are also known as the “Mexican Galapagos”.
If you have the opportunity to go on a Puerto Vallarta boat tour to the Marietas Islands, you’ll have the opportunity to experience one of the most beautiful natural conservation parks in the world. Its beautiful hidden beach, Playa del Amor, is incredibly unique , and the surrounding area is magnificent.
Other than Playa del Amor, there are tons of other hidden beaches, ocean caves, rock formations, and tunnels. The Marietas Islands got their shape and impressive geography due to volcanic activity many centuries ago. To add to that, it was a bomb test site for the Mexican military back in the 1900s. The large explosions caused many of the caves and rock formations to be created. In the 1960s, the government decided to declare the islands a national park.
Whale Watching Boat Tours
Puerto Vallarta whale watching season is from Mid-November to March each year . These gentle giants can be seen breaching out of the water as parents instruct their baby calves in the ways of the watery world. Each year, between 300 and 500 Humpback Whales are registered in the area. In other words, if you go during the right season you are almost guaranteed to see them! Book a private boat or a group tour for the best whale-watching experiences in the bay.

Domani: The 45 metre custom Benetti yacht built for today
She’s the fifth boat to be called Domani — and the owner’s fifth Benetti — but tomorrow has definitely come with his latest custom 45 metre.
The first time I see Domani is on the dock moments before the owner and his family board to begin their summer holiday. Despite the blazing heat of Viareggio on Italy’s north Tuscany coast, the joyful chaos, harried adults and four excited children make the occasion feel something like Christmas.
The owner’s family run to hug the crew as if they are long-lost relatives, then fan out to explore the new yacht. I hear them calling excitedly to each other — “come see, come see!” — as they discover each new space on board Domani .
My visit is only brief as the engines are running and the owner, his family and crew are eager to begin their summer cruise, but I manage to grab a quick tour and an explanation of the name. “I started working for Domani ’s owner 15 years ago, when his first Azimut-Benetti yacht, an Azimut 100, was almost completed and his wife was pregnant with their first child,” says the captain.
“We got to the shipyard a couple of weeks before delivery and would ask daily when the yacht would be ready. They’d always smile and say ‘domani’, which in Italian means tomorrow. The yacht was delivered on schedule but we decided to make the shipyard’s joking answer our theme.”
Three more Benetti yachts — a Classic 115 , a 45 metre Vision and a Classic 121 — brings us to today and this custom 45 metre steel and aluminium Benetti. The second time I board the latest Domani is after the yacht has been put through her summer paces cruising from Viareggio to Croatia and back: a two-month maiden voyage. How did it go? “Very smoothly,” says the captain. “We’ve done 3,000 nautical miles with no technical issues at all.”
A long talk and tour with the owner uncovers the heart and soul of the yacht. “I think the path that led me to Domani is typical of many yacht owners: you start small, maybe just looking for boats that you can afford. You live the onboard life that a specific boat lets you live, you adapt to it and its spaces,” he says.
“Then you get more sophisticated. Maturity brings a better understanding of what matters in your life, what you value and how you want to live. You start looking for a boat that matches your lifestyle and habits, a boat that really expresses who you are. You know what you want at that point; you want your own kind of spaces and your own kind of look. Then you start looking at a custom build.”
The owner and his family live on board for a few months a year and all share a real love of the sea and everything that has to do with it: watersports, fishing and being together. They are also people with sophisticated tastes and, in Domani , they have created a yacht that fully reflects their lifestyle.
“I am a property developer and get very involved in everything I do, it’s just the way I am. Domani ’s build was my escape valve, a project that I followed very closely, but that was just for pleasure. I travel frequently from South America to Spain, so every two months or so I would add a couple of days to a trip to Spain to go follow Domani ’s build.
“After building five yachts with them, I can safely say that I know Benetti very well. We have an excellent working relationship and I know exactly what I want from them and where to direct my attention,” he says.
The owner’s crew is as faithful to him as he is to Benetti. “I guess you could say that our chef is the rookie,” he jokes. “He has only been with us for eight years. We are a well-established team, a real managing team I’d say. All my core crew can speak English, Spanish and Italian so they can deal with the shipyard directly.
“They have followed all of my Benetti builds so they know the purveyors and craftsmen as well as the shipyard hands and management. And they know what they want and where they want it.”
Knowing exactly what he wanted is what makes Domani so special. “It came to me one day when we were aboard the previous Domani : we had never once used the dining room,” says the owner. “We are outdoor people. It might be a little hot or a little cold, but we want to be outside.
“That’s the way we want to live on the sea. I wanted this yacht to have the kind of outdoor spaces we could really enjoy and I started with the flybridge.”
Domani will usually cruise in warm climates such as the Caribbean. “I like the yacht’s wide beam and low draught because we can enter shallow waters,” he says. “But even if you’re in a warm area, up on the flybridge it can often be too windy to really be enjoyable. That’s why I designed the curved glass veranda.”
With the sundeck veranda open, Domani ’s deck is a single space with an aft sunbathing area, a bar and dining area amidships and a superyacht spa pool with sunbathing area forward. When it is closed around the tigerwood and steel dining table it creates three different zones.
“The veranda really activates the flybridge’s potential and makes it 100 per cent usable. It’s a real area for living. The kids love the spa pool and outdoor shower, and with a dayhead it’s also perfect for entertaining,” says Domani ’s owner.
The upper deck aft has just the kind of wide and open outdoor space that the owner wanted. There are generously deep couches and armchairs in teak and steel, a bar in tigerwood and glass and a teak, tigerwood and steel dining table for 12.
“The outdoor deck spaces don’t compromise the interior, they actually pick up and repeat the same themes, colours and materials so that indoors and out are lived as a whole,” he adds.
The upper deck saloon is a cosy home cinema that reveals the owner’s love of Italian design. “I wanted to use as much ready-made Italian furniture as I could; in this area it’s mostly Flexform. I was lucky to work with the interior designer Carlo Galeazzi because he didn’t want to impose his own designs on me.
“I think that furniture by top Italian manufacturers is as close as you can get to perfection. Flos, Minotti, Poltrona Frau, Cassina, Maxalto [B&B Italia] just to name a few; they all work with great designers and have a quality of production that can’t be beat.
“The Italians design for spaces that look perfect yet warm, which isn’t an easy balance. I really enjoyed going to the Salone del Mobile in Milan to scout out pieces for the yacht.”
Also on this level, the upper deck VIP cabin has the same steel-framed Cassina bed that is used in all of Domani ’s cabins, Vittoria bedside tables and luxurious grey leather curtains. The VIP bathroom is fitted with white marble. While there is only one captain aboard, there are four chairs in the wheelhouse because the children enjoy watching the action with “Uncle Capi” when the yacht is underway.
Another section where Domani 's owner lavished his attention and design input is the upper deck’s forward area. Here, he designed the couches and loungers upholstered in Minotti outdoor fabric and the sail-like awning that is mounted on four slim poles. “This is another space we used extensively and one that the children love,” adds the owner.
On the main deck, Domani ’s foyer has a dramatically lit superyacht staircase in dark oak and marble with cream leather walls and polished steel details. It leads forward to the owner’s suite with a study, dressing rooms and his-and-hers bathrooms, featuring the same white Statuario Carrara marble that Michelangelo used.
The sliding doors are by Rimadesio and the walls are in highly polished tigerwood and textured leather by Foglizzo. Built-in storage is concealed under the Cassina bed, as are elements to keep it tethered in rough seas. The most striking detail in this harmonious full-beam suite is actually a feature that breaks its symmetry: a private opening superyacht terrace that can be furnished with a table and chairs for enjoying a quiet moment.
Large windows and sliding glass doors give Domani ’s main saloon panoramic views and flood the elegant space with natural light. The play of contrasting tones and materials continues here with dark brown oiled oak floors set off by thick white carpeting. Dark wood wall panelling also contrasts with polished steel and cream textured leather panels, and polished white ceilings with steel accents.
A round Maxalto dining table in book-matched calacatta marble is surrounded by nature-themed art and boat models from the owner’s collection. While the owner and his family have just enjoyed two months of intense use out of Domani , everything looks contemporary, elegant and absolutely pristine. “I didn’t use any fabrics on board that aren’t wet bathing-suit proof,” he says with a smile.
The real wet bathing-suit area is the spacious main aft deck that has access to Domani ’s opening beach platform right below it. “We did an opening side door for launching the tenders so the beach club is a real space for living, with no technical stuff around. There is a shower, a dayhead and even a bar. It’s a really pleasant space for relaxing and enjoying, not just a platform for getting on and off the tender.”
The owner comes across as perfectly content with his new yacht, but will number five be the last Domani ? “Oh no,” he laughs. “I’ve already made an appointment with Benetti’s CEO Vincenzo Poerio to talk about the new Domani I have in mind. We’ll meet at the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show .” Because domani is another day.
