The World of Motor Yachts: Luxury, Performance, and Freedom

Motor yachts offer a unique combination of power, comfort, and freedom on the water. Designed primarily for pleasure cruising or racing, these impressive vessels put the world at your fingertips.

A Spectrum of Sizes: Finding Your Perfect Motor Yacht

Motor yachts come in different sizes, catering to every desire. From compact and maneuverable models around 33 feet (10 meters) to sprawling luxury palaces exceeding 131 feet (40 meters), there’s a perfect fit for every dream.

Pricing Considerations:

  • Smaller motor yachts (33ft – 50ft) typically range from $500,000 to $3 million.
  • Mid-size yachts (50ft – 80ft) can fall between $3 million and $15 million.
  • Superyachts (over 80ft) enter a whole new pricing category, reaching into the hundreds of millions and beyond, depending on size, customization, and features.

Power and Maneuverability: Taking Control on the Water

Motor yachts usually have two or more motors. This has several advantages:

  • Better Maneuverability: Two engines allow captains to better deal with challenging weather conditions. Thanks to vessel control software systems, it also provides some advantages when docking.
  • Fuel Efficiency and Range: With dual engines and customized fuel tanks, extended cruises at constant speeds with lower fuel consumption are possible. This is where the explorer yacht, designed to roam, even cross the Atlantic, thrives.
  • Shallow Water Access: Unlike deep-keel sailboats, motor yachts have a shallower draft, allowing them to explore beautiful coves and hidden bays inaccessible to other vessels.

The Flybridge Advantage: Elevated Yachting Experience

Many motor yachts, particularly larger models, will also have a flybridge. This offers captains better visibility for navigation, docking, and it provides passengers with higher vistas. Flybridge boats, like the smaller Merry Fisher , have that additional social space, featuring seating areas, wet bars, and sundecks.

Beyond Ownership: Exploring the Charter Option

Chartering offers a fantastic alternative for those seeking a taste of the motor yacht lifestyle without the full commitment of ownership. Chartering allows owners to offset some of the cost of their boats.

In 2020, an estimated 15,000 yachts were exceeding 79 feet available for charter worldwide.

Charter yachts often involve annual maintenance costs of around 15% of the yacht’s value. For vessels valued over $3 million, that’s almost a half million a year!

Our boating editors recently checked out the Miami boat show to understand this decadent market. We found many owners who don’t even get to use their yachts as much as they’d like, so the chartering world makes sense for everyone.

Entering the Realm of Superyachts: Luxury Redefined

The “Commercial Yacht Code” categorizes motor yachts exceeding 79 feet (24 meters) as superyachts and those surpassing 131 feet (40 meters) as mega-yachts. These behemoths represent the pinnacle of luxury yachting, with meticulously crafted interiors, advanced technological marvels, and crew quarters to cater to the owner’s every need. Naturally, these vessels come with exceptionally high construction standards and price tags.

Buying a Motor Yacht

Once you have made a decision to purchase a motor yacht, the next step is to determine exactly what make of motor yacht will best fit your requirements. There are so many different motor yachts, give yourself time to find the right one and ask yourself this.

  • Budget capacity?
  • New or used?
  • What type of user experience do you want out of the vessel?
  • What hull size of motor yacht is best?

Once you have created a shortlist, you can then refine your search. Take time out to go and view in person. Book yourself an experience aboard and head over to your closest marina and speak to owners. Consider these points before purchasing a motor yacht.

Frequently Asked Questions About Motor Yachts

These 5 questions give you some clarity on what to consider when purchasing a motor yacht.

  • How many guests and crew (combined) are you comfortable with aboard? Privately registered motor yachts can carry no more than 12 passengers, so often this will define the length of the vessel.
  • Then consider functionality and lifestyle. Decide upfront what you want out of the motor yacht, are you planning to use it for charter, private cruising, sport, remote office, family vacations or entertainment or all of the above?
  • Do you plan to use it on inland water systems or oceans or both?
  • Do you want to captain and skipper yourself or would you prefer a crew, so you have time to enjoy the experience?  Set a limit to your budget both in terms of purchase and then beyond that one has to consider the long term upkeep, storage, and monthly maintenance costs
  • What is the best length for a Motor Yacht?

If you plan on becoming your own captain, the best hull size on average for a single-handed skipper would be between 32ft to 42ft.

The best motor yacht length is defined by both the objective and purpose of the vessel. Added to this one should consider both the budget and upkeep costs, including dockage fees, as these are most often calculated at a per foot rate. The next factor would be to select a good for the number of passengers you wish to have aboard (family, guests, crew), as the number of sleeping berths are limited on smaller hull sizes. As you increase your hull size, you need to consider that this will then add an extra headcount because you have to factor in additional space for crew.

They say the old golden unwritten nautical rule is that boat length is always defined by a person’s age. Whatever your age, double it, and that gives you a perfect hull length in feet (for example, if you are 40 years of age you should consider an 80ft hull length).

They can cost anywhere between $100,000- $10,000,000. The sky’s the absolute limit when it comes to what you can spend on a motor yacht. Used or new, the cost is often defined by the design, size and year of manufacture. Quality motor yachts are built to last and most often retain market related value if they are properly maintained and have an accident free history.

Motor yachts are generally between 33ft – 79 feet, super yachts are generally over 79 feet in hull length, and mega yachts are over 100 feet.

If you purchase a globally recognized brand, it makes selling the boat in the future much easier. The established global motor yacht brands offer a range of existing designs that can be customized to suit any individual requirement. These approved motor yacht designs are often updated with the latest technology and modifications over the years. A tip is that reputable international brands retain market value over the years so are considered a valuable investment.

There is never one best hull type for a motor yacht, there is rather a series or collection of yachts or vessels that are released and they often use the exact same hull design for different lengths in a series. There is a huge selection and variation of hull designs, and this is exactly what defines a yacht. Motor boat hulls are specifically designed to cut through water with the least possible resistance while remaining balanced in all types of weather and water conditions. Each year hull designs improve and often a new hull release is about using the latest carbon fiber molding techniques for structural strength, rather than a modification to the actual shape of the design.

Super yachts are power driven water vessels specially designed by yacht engineers and shipbuilders and are normally 71 – 99 feet in length. Super yachts that exceed 100ft in length are classified as mega yachts.

Most expenses are deducted from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA), a fund that is added on top of the charter price. The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption). You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled). The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.">Price Terms: Plus Expenses

Superyacht sneak peek: top 5 largest superyachts at the 2024 monaco yacht show.

The 400-foot-long Kismet embarks on her maiden voyage in the Med

When it comes to exclusive enclaves, it’s pretty hard to compete with Monaco. The world’s elite flock to the tiny principality on the French Rivera for its sunny weather, sophisticated hotels and casinos, spectacular shopping and other financial reasons. They love to drive their fast cars down the famous roads leading into the city, and they love the speed and power of the legendary Monaco Grand Prix, too.

Monaco Yacht Show 20224

But as for the absolute pinnacle of luxury, it doesn’t get much better than owning a superyacht. And for the select few who happen to be shopping for a superyacht, there’s one place to see nearly all of the best, and biggest, and most technologically advanced yachts that money can buy (in addition to the tenders, and limousines, and private submarines, and luxury cars that go along with a superyacht) in one place: The Monaco Yacht Show , which starts next week.

Renaissance is massive

During the show, the docks of Monaco’s famous port are always filled with numerous yachts longer than 250 feet. But this year, the largest superyacht in the show is 400 feet long! And lots of superyachts in the 300-foot-long range will be there, too.

Best High-Yield Savings Accounts Of 2024

Best 5% interest savings accounts of 2024.

So, if you are lucky enough to be in Monaco later this month, I’ll see you there. But if you not, here’s a sneak peek at the five largest yachts that will be on display.

Kismet underway

What can I say about the 400-foot-long Kismet (which was built by Lürssen , features an exterior design by Nuvolari Lenard and an interior design by Reymond Langton Design and is available for charter with Cecil Wright ) that can help you understand just how big a 400-foot-long superyacht is? How about, since it measures 40 feet longer than an American football field (including the end zones), it’s safe to say that Kismet would only just barely fit inside the Jacksonville Jaguars EverBank Stadium. And that’s only if it could somehow be lowered from the top with a crane!

Kismet departs Lurssen shipyard in Germany

But since these photos and that explanation can’t really convey just how big Shaid Kahn ’s (the owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars) new 400-foot-long superyacht is...The only way you’ll really be able to understand just how big the Jacksonville Jaguars owner’s new yacht is to see it for yourself in Monaco next week. It’s going to be largest yacht at the show and has raised the bar on what’s possible when it comes to designing, building, owning and chartering the largest yachts in the world.

The interior for the 400-foot-long Kismet that charters for $3 million per week

And since Kismet has already spent her first season in the Mediterranean and is available for charter through Cecil Wright (instead of being hidden away for a private owner like many yachts in this size range are), you, too, could experience what it’s like to live the superyacht life aboard one of the largest and most opulent vessels in the world.

The interior for the 400-foot-long Kismet that charters for $3 million per week is massive

So, if you looking for a charter yacht that costs roughly $3 million per week, the Monaco Yacht Show will be the place where you can see just how opulent Kismet (and theses other superyachts too) for yourself.

‘Renaissance’

The Bannenberg & Rowell-designed Renaissance that can accommodate 36 guests in 16 cabins is unlike ... [+] most other superyachts that are available to charter

The 367-foot-long, 7,200-gross ton, Bannenberg & Rowell -designed Renaissance is um, a “really big superyacht.” But what intrigues me the most is that unlike most superyachts that can only accommodate 12 guests per charter, Renaissance has been designed to swaddle 36 guests in superyacht luxury.

Renaissance underway

As you’d imagine, this yacht has it all. Open-air dining on five decks and a dining room with 18-foot-tall ceilings on the main deck. A sushi bar. A pizza oven by the huge pool. And of course, the requisite DJ stations when it’s time to party. There’s also a massive cinema that has seating 19 guests on lower deck—the perfect place to just Netflix-n-chill.

And, oh yeah, the spa features hot and cold plunge pools, steam room and sauna, two treatment rooms and a full beauty salon. Contact Burgess for more info.

The all-new exterior lines of Oceanco H3

I’ve seen lots of superyacht designs come to life thanks to the hard work, dedication, perseverance and love that the large fraternity of superyacht designers, builders, artists and countless others pour into every spectacular new yacht that gets launched.

The rebuilt Oceanco H3 got a "rockstar" relaunch.

But I must admit, after seeing the 344-foot-long Oceanco -built (and rebuilt) H3 (first launched in 2000) emerge after an intensive 3-year-rebuild, I’m at a loss for words. I’m in awe, actually. Because after spending time at Oceanco with the project team and the owner's representative , I understand why this project is way more than just a refit.

It’s been transformed into a brand-new yacht with every modern comfort, but also retains its…soul.

The accommodations onboard the 334-foot-long H3 are spectacular

The sustainability impact of this project is also pretty awe-inspiring to me, too. According to Oceanco’s team of engineers, simply using an existing hull instead of building an brand-new one resulted in a 50% reduction of carbon emissions for the build. And since H3 has been repowered with smaller yet much more efficient engines (and her top speed has been reduced slightly), the yacht burns much less fuel than she previously did as well. Delivery time was reduced by 25% as well, and hopefully we see more projects take this approach in the future.

The video wall in the welcome area of the Ocean co H3 is innovative as well as attention grabbing.

Oceanco’s CEO Marcel Onkenhout adds, “To say that this has been a remarkable process is an understatement. The project has called for passion, dedication and extraordinary craftsmanship, with many involved in her creation now contributing to her recreation, including myself.” Contact Edmiston for more info.

Silver Yachts' BOLD is sure to get attention at this years Monaco Yacht Show

The 278-foot-long BOLD is the largest and most aggressive superyacht the Australian-based Silveryachts has ever built. Working in collaboration with yacht designer Espen Øino BOLD brings a whole new look to the explorer yacht category.

There helideck aboard BOLD is...bold!

Amels Full Custom ENERGY will be at the 2024 Monaco Yacht Show

The 255-foot-long Amels full-custom yacht ENERGY was created by exterior designer Espen Øino and interior designer Francois Zuretti to provide unapparelled luxury and access to the water.

The top deck’s helipad forward is a versatile space outside heliops—sun lounge, al fresco yoga studio with wraparound ocean views, a space for elevated entertainment served by the statement bar...assorted lounging areas and dayhead inside. The jacuzzi and sun pads aft allow guests to bask in the sun.

The bridge deck music lounge is designed for acoustic excellence. There is a Steinway baby grand piano and marble-topped bar. The entertainment continues in the open-air lounge aft, guests can find some privacy on the sofa forward of the bridge or keep going on the walkaround sidedecks to appreciate the anchorage from every possible vantage point.

Full-height windows in the the owner’s deck bedroom provide direct access to a private foredeck terrace, a hot tub and a mesmerizing marble fire pit. Contact Burgess for more info.

Russian oligarch Andrey Melnichenko berths superyacht in UAE

A yacht owned by Andrey Melnichenko

Simeon Kerr in Ras al-Khaimah

Roula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favourite stories in this weekly newsletter.

Investigators around the world have been searching for sanctions-hit Russian oligarchs’ yachts. One has been hiding in plain sight.

Italian authorities in March impounded Russian coal and fertilisers magnate Andrey Melnichenko’s $600mn Sailing Yacht A after Russia invaded Ukraine. Another yacht, the $300mn Philippe Starck-designed Motor Yacht A, has been anchored for weeks in the port of Ras al-Khaimah, in the United Arab Emirates.

By placing his yacht in the UAE, Melnichenko has put it beyond the reach of western governments enforcing sanctions on those deemed supportive of Russian president Vladimir Putin’s war on Ukraine.

Its presence is a symbolic reminder of the Gulf monarchy’s ambivalence towards western sanctions on Russia, allies of Putin and the wealthy businessmen who have often benefited from ties to the state.

While the UAE government is trying to enhance measures against money laundering to exit a global dirty-money watchdog’s watchlist, the economic foundation of cities such as Dubai has long been based on welcoming flows of assets and people.

“Given its non-enforcement of western sanctions, the dilemma for the UAE is how to sustain its place as an open destination for capital while also appearing to be a good global citizen,” said one compliance professional. “It’s a tricky balancing act.”

The government of the Isle of Man said it had in March deregistered Melnichenko’s yachts, including Motor Yacht A, because of western sanctions, saying, “we will continue to act with appropriate robustness should the situation warrant it”.

Marine locator services placed Motor Yacht A off the Maldives in March. The Financial Times then saw the yacht on April 18. On Saturday it remained moored opposite Ras al-Khaimah’s city-centre fish market.

Businessmen in the UAE say Melnichenko, who denies affiliations to the Kremlin, held meetings there in April, but the tycoon has since returned to Moscow. A representative of Melnichenko, who has been placed under sanctions by the EU and UK as well as Switzerland and Australia, referred questions on the yacht to a lawyer who declined to comment.

UAE authorities in Dubai, Ras al-Khaimah and Abu Dhabi declined to comment.

European officials say they have raised concerns with Emirati counterparts that the UAE could become a financial haven for Russians placed under western sanctions. “We don’t want our allies to become facilitators for the Putin regime,” said one.

Russian oligarch Andrey Melnichenko attends an event

The UAE government has said it is maintaining a neutral course through the war, calling for an end to hostilities and providing humanitarian aid to Ukraine. Abu Dhabi, which has developed closer ties with Moscow in recent years, has also assured its allies that sanctions-hit entities will not be able to operate in the UAE. The Gulf monarchy, which has long argued that it is not compelled to enforce other nations’ sanctions, is keen to maintain its historical role as an apolitical territory focused on business.

Thousands of wealthy, non-sanctions-hit Russians have relocated to the UAE to escape economic uncertainty and political instability at home, even though they sometimes struggle to access the financial system. “Big banks are more cautious but smaller banks are offering help to those wishing to relocate. It’s just taking a lot of time,” said a Russian businessman.

Very wealthy Russians generally find financial institutions accommodating. Most of the wealthy elite have second passports from countries that sell nationality, such as Malta or Portugal, which facilitates the opening of new accounts with lenders that are warier of Russian passport holders.

Others have turned to alternative routes, such as cryptocurrencies and hawala, or informal money exchange services. The cost of this service has risen from 1 per cent of the transaction value to 5 per cent since the war broke out as demand surges, said one person aware of the trades.

Many in the UAE see a hypocrisy in western concern over the presence of the yacht and the Russians building new lives there. “So it was OK for London to take all the oligarch money but not for Dubai?” asked one lawyer.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5’s trailer has finally arrived, and with Captain Glenn Shephard’s crew including First Officer Gary King, fans are disappointed in the show’s return . While Below Deck viewers have been impatiently awaiting news about Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 for over a year, the trailer has finally been released, and has many concerned about what the season is going to look like. While the trailer reveals the return of some familiar faces, the storylines that appear to be part of the season left viewers feeling uneasy. After Gary’s sexual misconduct allegations, his involvement seems overwhelming.

In the Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 trailer, the crew’s chartering guests around Ibiza in a new sailing adventure. With Gary showing up early in the trailer after Daisy Kelliher makes her grand entrance, things get dicey quickly. “That’s right, we have a f****** job and I’m not carrying this f****** season on my own you f****** prick,” Daisy shouts at Gary in one moment of the trailer as he lays in his bed, looking dismayed. The rest of the trailer shows the genuine chaos of the season, featuring Gary heavily much to the surprise of Below Deck viewers .

What Gary’s Involvement In Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5 Means

He’s part of the show more than ever.

Throughout the Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 trailer, it was clear that Gary will be a focal point of the exterior team’s story. Being shown on the deck with some of the exterior team, pushing Deckhands to their limits and critiquing their work, Gary’s presence on the sailing yacht may be odd during Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 . While he appears to be getting along with Daisy , he may not even have her in his corner by the end of the charter season. His heavy involvement in the trailer may not indicate the same throughout the whole season.

20 Best Reality TV Shows Right Now

Reality TV is more popular than ever. With so many to choose from, here are some of the best reality TV shows to stream or watch right now.

Although Gary has been a part of Below Deck Sailing Yacht since the early days of the series, seeing him as a member of the crew after his sexual misconduct allegations came to light is tough. While Bravo filmed Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 before the allegations were revealed, they came to light during the filming of the season and it appears that the network didn’t choose to remove Gary from later episodes or take action at all. Though it remains to be seen if production did anything about Gary , it’s disappointing to some to see him on screen.

Our Take On The Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5 Trailer

It could be chaotic fun, but gary leaves a stain on the show.

Although the trailer for Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 makes it seem like one of the most exciting, dramatic seasons of the series we’ve ever seen, the mess may not be worth it if Gary’s involved. By ignoring the sexual misconduct allegations lodged against Gary and leaving him on the series, seemingly without explanation, Bravo is allowing it to seem like what he may have done is okay. Though nothing has been proven, taking no action on Below Deck Sailing Yacht could be a misstep that may taint the entire season of the sailing spin-off for once excited viewers.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht premieres Monday, October 7 at 9 p.m. EDT on Bravo.

CYBA contracts, common in the Caribbean (all catamarans and some motor yachts), are all-inclusive except for gratuities and are in the industry referred to as “Caribbean terms.” MYBA contracts, used globally, are “plus expenses,” meaning fuel, food, and dockage are extra and handled through Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA).

Unless specified under the Special Conditions , the total all-inclusive charter fee includes:

  • Hiring of the yacht
  • Services of a fully licensed crew
  • Standard ship’s bar Fuel
  • Cruising taxes and permits
  • Clearance taxes
  • Mooring fees
  • All expenses related to running the yacht
  • Use of on-board leisure and sports equipment

  • Premium beverages (fine wines & excessive alcohol requests)
  • Scuba diving
  • Off-yacht excursions

“Yachting on a Beer Budget”

This 88-foot Nordlund Motor Yacht with accommodation for 6 guests is really great value for money and has excellent client feedback ! Honestly, there aren’t many luxury yachts of this size and standard at this all-inclusive price! Prime Time is, therefore, also a very popular boat fully booked out every year; it is, therefore, important to reserve her in good time.

Prime Time is owned and skippered by American ex-navy Captain Joe Standish , who has lived and chartered in the BVI since 1999. Joe runs one of the oldest charter businesses in the BVI ; needless to say, his local knowledge and experience are second to none.

The second crew member onboard Prime Time, Michael, has worked many years on cruise ships and local cargoes and was on the water when Hurricane Irma hit the Caribbean—here is a good story to be told.

The crew wants people to be comfortable and act like they would at home: “We are very laid back. Our company motto has always been ‘Come as Guests…Leave as Friends…’ That still holds true while running Prime Time, but we have added a new one for the niche we plan on filling in this industry, ‘Yachting on a Beer Budget.’ With that mentality, we also want our guests to ’embrace the local culture,’ which is why we only do breakfast and lunches onboard. We believe that a yacht charter here in the BVI is so much more than just being on a beautiful boat for 7 days. Your Crew wants you to enjoy the things that ‘we do,’ whether that be local BBQ or fish fry, drinks on the beach, or just chilling on your own private beach. We will make your time with us a memorable one.”

Guest Feedback

“Another fantastic trip! Captain Joe and Mike are so friendly, full of knowledge, and a great time! We wouldn’t travel on another boat in the BVI. Great food and drinks, and lots of laughs! Capt. Joe took us to all the spots on our list and a few more. If you have ever wanted to charter a boat to see the Islands, Prime Time is the only way to do it! Already looking to book again for next year.”

“One of the Most Reviewed Yachts – All 5-Star!”

If you’re looking for luxury and comfort with a personal touch, Suite Life is a fantastic option. This 92-foot yacht feels like a floating luxury resort, with plenty of space to relax, entertain, and explore. Even though the yacht was built in 1998, it’s been completely refitted and is meticulously maintained by the owner-operators, so it still feels fresh and modern.

The layout is super spacious, with four staterooms that can comfortably accommodate up to nine guests. The master suite is especially impressive, with its king bed, walk-in closet, and even a jacuzzi in the bathroom. Each room is decked out with smart TVs, Bluetooth stereos, and 24/7 air conditioning, making it easy to unwind in total comfort.

The crew of 4 goes above and beyond to make sure your vacation is perfect; their great service is reflected in the many positive reviews they receive from their guests , showing you the best spots in the Virgin Islands and catering to your every need.

On deck, you’ll find plenty of spots to soak in the sun, from the upper deck lounges to the oversized bow sun pad. Plus, there’s a fresh or saltwater pool up front and an expansive swim platform for easy access to snorkeling and water fun.

Overall, Suite Life delivers on its name, offering a top-tier experience with a cozy, personal feel. Perfect for anyone looking to live the suite life, if only for a while.

Can’t say enough about Suite Life Yachting! We had such a great experience on their beautiful boat with the best crew! Captain Roy, Chef Nick and Nate took such great care of us and we had everything we could possibly need or want and then some! Amazing food, delicious drinks, snorkel lessons, hike guides, you name it they delivered! The boat is gorgeous, super clean and so well maintained. Would HIGHLY recommend this charter!!”

If you are looking for a more classic yacht, this 82-foot Horizon motor yacht, Qara, might be for you. Qara underwent a full refit in 2023 , and her beautiful all-wooden interior is in excellent condition – look through the pictures to see her stunning, classic cabins.

Along with her nautical look, Qara comes with a great list of on-water activities; she’s got a Jacuzzi on the back deck next to the outdoor barbeque. She’s got all the equipment for deep-sea fishing , so you got something fresh to throw on that barbeque. And she’s got a great collection of water toys, including water skis, wakeboard, sea scooter, kayak, floating mats, snorkel gear, underwater camera, and beach games.

Captain Mark Sperber has enjoyed being on the water his whole life, from catamaran racing to working for the largest subcontractor for oil spill cleanups in the Gulf during the Deep Water Horizon recovery efforts; Mark understands how to give guests a great introduction to life on the water.

Chef Beth Basinski has spent 15 years perfecting her craft on luxury yachts, blending her love for food with a focus on wellness. Her meals are all about making you feel good, inside and out.

Stewardess/Deckhand Morgan Donovan traded NYC’s fast-paced restaurant scene—managing a Michelin Star restaurant and a top food hall—for the laid-back Caribbean. She’s all about creating a relaxed, unforgettable experience on board, with a touch of that NYC flair.

“Get More Space with this Brand-New Luxury Power Catamaran”

Although not technically a motor yacht, I wanted to showcase a power catamaran to demonstrate what you can expect in terms of space and amenities— comparable to a motor yacht that’s 15-20% larger . Blessed compares to a motor yacht approximately 92 to 96 feet in length.

So why choose Blessed among the many power catamarans in the Caribbean? Blessed is a brand-new, 80-foot Sunreef catamaran built in 2024 at the Sunreef factory in Gdansk. The design and construction were overseen by Tim Miller and Julie Brown, who also run the yacht as Captain and Chef, so they really know the yacht inside out!

Blessed is 80 feet long and can accommodate up to 10 guests in 5 cabins –4 masters and a double–all with en-suite bathrooms. It is ideal for a large group of friends or a big family gathering.

Blessed is truly a grand yacht both in terms of space and interior design – the main saloon and galley are like a penthouse. The best must be the flybridge, which features a Jacuzzi , a wet bar, 2 refrigerators, 2 ice makers, and a 55” smart TV. With multiple locations for sunbathing or enjoying the shade, this space is designed for ultimate relaxation (and the occasional dance party)!

Blessed’s Toy Garage easily deploys into the water from the hydraulic swim platform , providing effortless access to exciting adventures with the foils, Seabobs, or snorkeling! Or, enjoy a refreshing cocktail on the 10’ inflatable pool deck. Blessed also has SCUBA gear onboard , and Captain Tim happens to be a Dive instructor .

This catamaran is, through and through, a really amazing yacht that easily rivals a motor yacht in terms of luxury.

Luxury Motor Yacht on Netflix show World's Most Amazing Vacation Rentals

“Vacation of a Lifetime! We just got back from our epic vacation with family and friends aboard the Angeleyes Yacht! The yacht is luxuriously beautiful with its gorgeous interior. The rooms are incredibly spacious, each having its own luxurious bathroom stocked with everything you may need. The outdoor areas provided so many areas to sit and relax, eat meals with a view, or relax in the hot tub overlooking the beautiful blue waters. The staff is beyond amazing! Jen made sure we never went hungry on the table’s ever changing place settings. The food was beyond delicious. From chocolate croissants, pulled pork salads, fish tacos, to Frito pie for these Texans with hungry teenage boys. Remi made sure we were never without an activity to do or a delicious drink in our hands. He is also a very talented “merman” who can find a fish and a turtle anywhere! Darrell is an extremely knowledgeable captain who not only got us to beautiful places to anchor, but also provided us with many jokes that kept us laughing. Some of our highlights…We went snorkeling above a sunken barge and along shoreline where we saw so many colorful fish. We went swimming with sea turtles and also came across a beautiful eagle ray and a puffer fish. Remi took the kids tubing and gave them jet board lessons. Not only did we take advantage of what the ocean had to offer, we also hit up some of the hot spots on the beautiful Islands such as Soggy Dollar, Foxy’s, and The Willy T. Here, we had a blast drinking island cocktails and dancing the night away! My family can’t thank the owners and the crew of Angeleyes Yacht enough for a vacation of our lifetime! ❤️🛥”

If you’re keen on fishing or simply relish the thrill of catching your own dinner , Midnight Moon is perfectly equipped. The yacht comes with all the necessary deep-sea fishing gear, complemented by a crew who are both skilled in fishing and passionate about cooking your catch.

The reason I put Midnight Moon this high on the list is because it is a really fantastic all-around yacht with everything you need for a 1-week or more luxury charter vacation with a real taste of the Caribbean. With 1 master and 3 VIP cabins accommodating up to 8 guests, she is a great option for a group of friends or a family trip.

“This Yacht has EVERYTHING Luxury + a Very Flexible Cabin Layout!”

There are many reasons why I have selected this yacht as number 1 on the list: At 135 feet and three decks high, it has all the space needed for a big group charter without feeling crowded at all. Plus, she accommodates 12 guests , which is perfect for a big group of friends or two families sharing a luxury charter.

The interior is simply stunning—classic, elegant, and bright . The light wood, white carpets, and chic furniture create a modern, airy vibe, topped off by a gorgeous chandelier that adds a touch of glam.

The cabins are equally impressive. With a master suite, four VIPs, and one twin, there’s plenty of room to spread out and storage space is more than ample–I honestly don’t think you can overpack for this yacht vacation.

The flybridge is fantastic on Stay Salty; there is both a seating area, sunbathing loungers, and a fully equipped bar . There is another bar inside, so you don’t have to walk far for a cocktail.

With a crew of 8, including a masseuse offering massages anywhere on the yacht or even on the beach, you’re in for some serious pampering.

In conclusion, this yacht is absolutely brilliant!

The 55 Bali was great as we were the first paying customers. Beautiful boat with plenty of room. The Captain and first mate were great. Food was top notch and so good that we opted to not do 1 shore dinner and just ate on the boat. We saw and did everything that we set out to see. I would repeat in a heartbeat.

Ukraine-Russia War Updates: Moscow Hits Back in Kursk as Air War Heats Up

Moscow’s troops have retaken a few villages in a border area that Kyiv’s forces invaded last month and are also advancing steadily in eastern Ukraine.

  • Share full article

Three soldiers ride in a an armored vehicle on a dirt road.

By Constant Méheut and Haley Willis

Constant Méheut reported from Kyiv, Ukraine.

A month and a half into its offensive into Russia’s western Kursk region , the Ukrainian Army faces difficult decisions over where best to commit its limited forces.

Moscow’s troops have begun counterattacking in the area , reclaiming a few villages and threatening Ukraine’s ability to hold onto the territory it has seized. At the same time, Russian soldiers in Ukraine have continued advancing on other parts of the front there, which Kyiv had hoped to stabilize by prompting a diversion of Russian units back home to defend Kursk.

Ukraine and Russia are also engaged in air assaults, targeting each other’s military bases and energy infrastructure as each side tries to degrade the other’s capacity to sustain the war effort. In addition, Russia continues to regularly hit civilian areas in devastating attacks that cause frequent casualties.

Here’s a closer look at the current situation on the battlefield.

Russia has begun to counterattack in Kursk.

In the past few weeks, the front line had been somewhat stable in the Kursk region, which Ukraine first invaded on Aug. 6. As Moscow sent in more troops to reinforce its defenses in the area — as many as 30,000, according to Ukrainian officials — the Ukrainian advance largely stopped and Kyiv has moved to fortify its positions along the more than 500 square miles of territory that it controlled.

But the front line has moved again in the past few days, after Moscow began a concerted counterattack last week in the area. Maps of the battlefield compiled by independent groups based on satellite images and battlefield footage show that Russian troops have regained some territory around the bulge of land seized by Ukraine.

Russian advances have reclaimed territory that Ukraine captured in Kursk.

top five motor yacht

In particular, Russian forces have driven a small wedge into the western edge of the Ukrainian bulge, recapturing at least one village, Snagost, and several other settlements. Videos posted on social media and verified by The New York Times showed Russian troops raising the Russian flag in Snagost and moving freely through and clearing homes in Krasnooktyabr’skoe, a nearby settlement.

On Monday, the Russian authorities ordered the evacuation of civilians from two districts directly west of that area, suggesting plans for a counterassault there.

Ukrainian forces, too, have been on the move in recent days, pushing through another section of the border near the settlement of Novyi Put’, to the southwest of the main area of the Russian counterattack.

Verified videos posted on Thursday showed a Ukrainian engineering vehicle plowing through fortifications along the border, allowing other Ukrainian military vehicles to pass through. The next day, videos showed Ukrainian forces advancing into Russia from the point where they breached the border toward Veseloe, a village about two miles from the border.

Analysts say this may be an attempt to hamper the Russian counterattack by opening a new front on its flank, but it remains unclear whether Ukrainian troops have held onto any territory there.

Kyrylo Sazonov, a Ukrainian soldier fighting in the Kursk region, said the situation on the battlefield was shifting by the hour.

“By the time we discuss an event, the situation has likely already changed,” he told Ukrainian television on Sunday. “There’s no fixed line of contact here. For instance, some of our troops moved in with mortars to support others but walked into an ambush from three sides.”

“Both our side and the Russians are acting unpredictably,” he added.

Ukrainian troops are on the backfoot in the east.

Gen. Oleksandr Syrskyi , Ukraine’s top general, said last month that one goal of Ukraine’s cross-border assault into Kursk was to compel Moscow to divert troops from the front line in Ukraine to reinforce its own border region, thus relieving pressure on Kyiv’s troops fighting in Ukraine.

But so far, Russia has withdrawn only a limited number of experienced units from the Ukrainian battlefield, according to military analysts and Western officials.

Instead, it has sought to defend its territory and launch counterattacks with combat units largely drawn from within Russia, keeping the bulk of its forces in Ukraine to press ahead with assaults, particularly in the eastern Donetsk region, which Moscow already partly controls.

That has been particularly true near Pokrovsk , a strategic eastern Ukrainian city that Russian forces have been steadily closing in on in the past few weeks despite Ukraine’s own offensive into Russia.

Russian forces are now about five miles from Pokrovsk, which is an important railway hub for the Ukrainian Army. It also sits on a key road linking several cities that form a defensive arc, protecting the part of the Donetsk region still held by Ukraine.

With water and electricity supplies cut off in Pokrovsk as the fighting gets closer, the local authorities have urged residents to evacuate immediately. The city’s population has now dwindled to 16,000 from about 62,000 in early August, according to the local authorities.

Russian advances toward Pokrovsk have slowed somewhat recently as Moscow’s troops try to break through the main Ukrainian defensive lines protecting the city. Emil Kastehelmi, an analyst from the Finland-based Black Bird Group, said those consisted of a network of trenches, anti-tank obstacles and troops on favorable terrain.

At the same time, as the Russian forces have run up against the Ukrainian defenses around Pokrovsk, they have advanced in an area farther south, toward the town of Kurakhove, from different sides.

“Russia will likely push aggressively as long as possible, as any significant gains in Donetsk have been very difficult to achieve quickly,” Mr. Kastehelmi said . “The window of opportunity is open, and they will try to exploit the recently appeared cracks in the Ukrainian defenses.”

Air assaults have intensified.

Russia is pressing ahead with its air campaign against energy infrastructure in Ukraine, with the latest attack on Tuesday targeting power plants in the northeastern Sumy region, according to the local authorities. Ukraine’s energy network has been so damaged by months of attacks that experts and officials have warned that power cuts will be unavoidable this winter.

Russia has also ramped up its air attacks on urban centers across Ukraine in recent weeks. Cities such as Kyiv, the capital, and Kharkiv , Kryvyi Rih and Poltava have been targeted in often devastating air assaults that have hit apartment buildings and a military academy .

Outgunned and outnumbered on the battlefield, the Ukrainian authorities have argued for months that one way to unsettle Russian military operations is to conduct airstrikes on military bases deep inside Russia, from where attacks are launched or prepared.

In recent weeks, Ukraine has hit oil refineries, power plants, airfields and military factories in an attempt to disrupt the logistics of the Russian military. Some attacks have also targeted urban centers, such as the Moscow area last week .

The Ukrainian forces have so far used only homemade weapons, mostly drones, to conduct aerial attacks deep inside Russia. But they have pressed their allies to let them use Western-supplied long-range and more powerful missiles to target Russia more effectively.

“We have already explained to all our partners why Ukraine truly needs sufficient long-range capabilities,” President Volodymyr Zelensky said in his nightly address on Sunday .

President Biden and Prime Minister Keir Starmer of Britain discussed expanding Ukraine’s long-range strike capabilities during a meeting at the White House on Friday , but neither leader announced any policy changes after the meeting.

Biden Poised to Approve New Tactics:  President Biden appears on the verge of clearing the way  for Ukraine to launch long-range Western weapons deep  inside Russian territory, as long as it doesn’t use arms provided by the United States, European officials say.
