A closer look
The Sun-Kissed Deck
Bask in the warmth of the Aegean sun on the expansive sun deck. Generous sun loungers invite hours of undisturbed relaxation, perhaps with a good book or simply the gentle lull of the waves as your soundtrack. The open air provides invigorating freshness, a perfect antidote to the everyday, offering panoramic vistas of the azure waters and distant, rugged coastlines.
Afloat in Azure
The swim platform offers a seamless transition from yacht to ocean. Imagine dipping into the cool, clear waters of a secluded cove, the warmth of the sun on your skin, and the gentle embrace of the sea. After a refreshing swim, the platform provides a convenient perch for towelling off, or simply to sit and watch the marine life below the surface.
Saloon Sanctuary
Below deck, the main saloon provides a cool, air-conditioned retreat from the midday sun. Sink into comfortable seating, perhaps catching up on a film on the integrated TV or simply enjoying quiet conversation. The interior design, reimagined during the 2020 refit, offers a sophisticated yet comfortable ambience, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration.
Al Fresco Entertainment
Evenings are enhanced by the outdoor TV, allowing for starlit movie nights under the vast Mediterranean sky. Gather with loved ones on deck, a gentle breeze carrying the scent of the sea, as your favourite cinematic moments unfold against a backdrop of twinkling stars and the soft glow of the yacht's lighting. It’s an experience that truly connects you with your surroundings.
Effortless Connectivity
Stay connected with those ashore, or simply browse your favourite online content, thanks to the onboard Wi-Fi. While the essence of a charter is escape, the ability to share moments, check in with work, or research your next idyllic anchorage is always at your fingertips, blending modern convenience with classic seafaring adventure.
Accommodation
Three thoughtfully appointed cabins provide a peaceful sanctuary for up to eight guests. The layout is designed for comfort and privacy, with each space offering a serene escape. While specific details of a master suite are not provided, the overall arrangement ensures ample room for personal rejuvenation. Plush linens and careful attention to detail create an inviting atmosphere, promising restful nights after exhilarating days exploring the East Mediterranean's hidden coves and vibrant coastlines. The 2020 refit ensures a contemporary feel within the classic structure.
Culinary delights are a cornerstone of the charter experience. Your dedicated crew of three includes a talented chef, ready to craft bespoke menus tailored to your preferences. Imagine dining al fresco on the deck, the gentle lapping of waves accompanying exquisite meals prepared with fresh, local ingredients. From vibrant Mediterranean breakfasts to elegant evening repasts, each dish is a celebration of flavour, served in a setting that elevates every bite.
While a dedicated spa or gym is not featured, the very essence of a sailing charter through the East Mediterranean promotes holistic well-being. The invigorating sea air, the warmth of the sun, and the opportunity for daily swims from the swim platform provide natural rejuvenation. Floating mats offer a gentle way to drift and relax on the water, connecting you directly with the tranquil marine environment and fostering a profound sense of calm.
The allure of the water is never far with a selection of engaging water toys. Floating mats provide a simple yet blissful way to connect with the azure sea, allowing you to drift idly in secluded bays, soaking in the sun and the serenity. These inflatable platforms are perfect for leisurely afternoons spent bobbing on the gentle waves, offering a refreshing perspective of your stunning surroundings.

What a yacht like TESS costs to own — not just to charter
The published weekly rate for TESS is the base charter fee, not an all-in total. APA, taxes, repositioning and itinerary-specific services are confirmed separately. Ownership of a 24m yacht in this class is a five-year commitment — crew payroll, insurance, class and refit reserves, berthing and depreciation. Our yacht ownership vs charter vs fractional ownership study runs the real five-year cost of a €15 million yacht against the equivalent charter spend, and the most profitable yachts for owners ranking shows how much of that stack charter revenue actually recovers.
