“I've been on board PURITAN more times than I can count, and she still surprises me. The 38.4m Elco 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.”

Accommodation
4 elegantly appointed cabins host up to 8 in serene comfort, served by a professional crew of 7.
Indicative layout based on 4 cabins / 8 guests. Final cabin configuration confirmed by the yacht's manager at enquiry.
