A note from your charter specialist
ARMEN is one of those rare yachts that feels different the moment you step aboard. The 18m Fountaine Pajot build hits a sweet spot — big enough to feel like a private floating villa, intimate enough that the crew remembers how you take your morning coffee by day two. Happy to walk you through a week on board personally — there are a few details that don't make it onto any spec sheet.
