The combination of 4 cabins, 55 feet of living space, and a proven charter layout makes her a practical choice for families and groups who value both comfort and privacy.

Before recommending any yacht, our charter brokers review availability, charter rates, seasonal demand, crew feedback, onboard amenities, and destination suitability. If OUT OF THE BLUE isn't the perfect fit, we'll recommend comparable yachts to ensure you book the best option for your travel dates and preferences.

How do I check if this yacht is available?

Availability changes daily. Submit your preferred travel dates and our charter specialists will confirm availability and provide the latest pricing. If this yacht is unavailable, we'll recommend similar alternatives.

Is the displayed price final?

The weekly charter rate is a starting price. Final pricing depends on your travel dates, destination, season, applicable taxes, and additional expenses such as APA, fuel, dockage, and gratuities where applicable.

What is included in a yacht charter?

Most yacht charters include the yacht, professional crew (if crewed), onboard accommodations, standard water toys, and insurance. Additional expenses vary depending on the yacht and itinerary.

Can I customize my itinerary?

Yes. Every yacht charter itinerary is customized around your preferred destinations, travel dates, weather conditions, and interests.

How far in advance should I book?

Luxury yachts are often reserved several months in advance, especially during peak seasons. Early booking provides the best selection and pricing.

Do I need sailing experience?

No. Most luxury yacht charters include an experienced captain and professional crew who handle navigation and daily operations.

Can you recommend similar yachts?

Absolutely. If this yacht isn't the perfect match, our charter experts can recommend similar yachts based on your budget, group size, destination, and preferred amenities.

Which destinations can this yacht visit?

Cruising areas depend on the yacht's seasonal location. Our charter team will recommend the best itinerary based on your travel dates.

Can I book this yacht online?
