The Main Saloon

The main saloon offers a sophisticated haven, bathed in natural light filtering through expansive windows. Plush, understated furnishings invite languid afternoons, perhaps with a book from the curated selection, or engaging conversation over an aperitif. The refined materials underfoot and the subtle gleam of polished surfaces create an atmosphere of quiet luxury, a perfect transition from the vibrant deck to serene interior comfort. It’s an ideal space for gathering, yet spacious enough to find a quiet corner for contemplation.

Comfortable seating invites guests to linger, savouring the sea breeze and panoramic views. It’s a dynamic space, perfect for socialising or simply reclining with a glass of something chilled, watching the world drift by.

Climate Controlled Comfort

Throughout the yacht, sophisticated air conditioning maintains a perfect interior climate, a welcome respite from the midday sun or cooler coastal evenings. This seamless control ensures every guest remains in absolute comfort, whether relaxing in their cabin or enjoying the communal spaces. It speaks to an unwavering commitment to guest wellbeing, allowing for undisturbed enjoyment of every moment aboard, regardless of the external conditions.

Accommodation

Four beautifully appointed cabins provide a private sanctuary for eight guests. The master suite, a spacious retreat, offers a king-sized berth and an elegant ensuite, providing a serene escape. Guest cabins are equally luxurious, each designed with meticulous attention to detail, featuring plush linens and ample storage. The layout ensures privacy and comfort, allowing each passenger to unwind in their own refined space after a day of coastal exploration. Every cabin is a testament to thoughtful design, promising restful nights at anchor or underway.

Dining

The culinary journey aboard is an adventure in itself, with a skilled chef at the helm, crafting bespoke menus inspired by the freshest local ingredients of the West Coast. From invigorating breakfasts served al fresco on the aft deck, to sophisticated multi-course dinners in the main saloon, each meal is a celebration. Informal lunches can be enjoyed on the bridge deck, perhaps featuring freshly caught seafood. The presentation is as exquisite as the flavours, ensuring every dining experience is a memorable event.

Wellness

While THE RICHIE doesn't boast an extensive spa, the serene environment and the embrace of the ocean contribute to an inherent sense of wellbeing. The at-anchor stabilisers ensure a remarkably smooth experience, promoting relaxation. Guests can find tranquility on the sun-drenched foredeck for mindful moments, or simply immerse themselves in the calming rhythm of the sea, an organic form of rejuvenation. The fresh sea air invigorates, creating a natural sense of peace.

Toys & Tenders

The yacht comes equipped with a superb selection of water toys designed to enhance your coastal adventure. Guests can explore hidden coves with paddleboards, feel the exhilaration of slicing through the waves on a tender, or simply enjoy a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters. The crew is on hand to assist with all water activities, ensuring effortless enjoyment and providing access to the stunning marine environment of the West Coast.

Ownership economics

What a yacht like THE RICHIE costs to own — not just to charter

The published weekly rate for THE RICHIE is the base charter fee, not an all-in total. APA, taxes, repositioning and itinerary-specific services are confirmed separately. Ownership of a 26m 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.
