One of the giants of the Lürssen fleet, Polar Star was created to offer guests limitless cruising.

There is capacious outdoor deck space and a spa pool on the owner’s aft deck that holds 10. In addition, Polar Star’s refit will be completed in time for this summer season in the Mediterranean. The newly upholstered interior will give the yacht a fresh contemporary feel and the new outdoor cinema on the sundeck will most certainly be a popular addition.

Launched little over five years ago, Metsuyan IV combines all the modern amenities of any superyacht wrapped up in a beautifully understated façade.
The classic-shaped hull offers practical seaworthiness designed for long distance passages and her interior is wonderfully traditional: cherry wood paneling can be found throughout and the oval dining table is made from sycamore. Alfresco dining can be enjoyed on both aft and sundecks where BBQs can be prepared in front of guests. In spite of its traditional image, Metsuyan IV is a superb yacht for families; there are connecting double and twin suites specially designed with this in mind. The two large tenders are fast enough for waterskiing and towing all manner of inflatable toys, a dive board can be attached to the large sundeck, and at anchor, guests can access the crow’s nest, a small platform on top of the radar arch providing stunning views of the surroundings.

Atmosphere is the third in Perini Navi’s 53 meter series, but it is without doubt the most decadent boasting artworks and sculpture by Picasso and Mitoraj, antiques from Ming Dynasty China and Hermès fabrics.
While these adorn the pilothouse, and four double and two single suites, up on deck the uncluttered teak expanse unhindered by ropes or winches provides a vast space for dining and lounging. The finest views are enjoyed from the sundeck Jacuzzi where guests can look up at the vast sails powering Atmosphere through the water. After a full interior and exterior refresh in 2010, Atmosphere is immaculate and Captain Neil and his phenomenal crew are eager to welcome guests onboard.

YII

Number of guests | 6
Number of staterooms | 3
Builder | Holland Jachtbouw
Year of construction | 2006
Draft | 14ft (4.3m)
Weekly rate | $102,00
This strikingly modern sloop not only looks impressive, but her sleek lines, flush hull and enormous mast designed by Bill Dixon provide the kind of performance you’d expect.
Weight was a key issue in YII’s design and only the strongest and lightest modern materials were used throughout to guarantee great speeds – in even the lightest of wind conditions. Nevertheless, Dixon’s designs and Holland Jachtbouw’s construction bestowed YII with all modern luxuries.
The uncluttered deck provides an ample sunbathing terrace for lounging on padded sun mats with optional shade provided by two large awnings built into the boom. Her fully automatic bimini and dodger can provide shelter in the cockpit seating and dining area, where there is also a hidden television system. Below decks the interior is contemporary and as open plan as a sailing yacht can be, making full use of the natural light available. A stunning leather-clad hallway leads forward from the saloon to a large master cabin with twin double beds and large en-suite with power shower and full audio visual technology. Aft are two spacious twin cabins also with en-suite facilities.
Leisure and recreation: Tender, scuba diving equipment including dive compressor, wakeboard, waterskis, snorkeling and fishing equipment.
