Some yachts are built for long passages. BEST OF ME is built for the day. This 28.15 metre Sunseeker, delivered in 2014, pairs the pace of a sport yacht with the comfort of a proper charter platform, and she is perfectly suited to the short hops and clear anchorages of the Balearic Islands.
Her lines are low, athletic and unmistakably Sunseeker, a profile that still looks current more than a decade after launch. The flybridge is the heart of the yacht under the Mediterranean sun, with a dining table, a bar and sunpads that make it the natural gathering point from late morning onward. Forward, a second sun terrace on the bow gives guests a quieter spot away from the action, and the aft deck offers shaded seating for long lunches at anchor off Mallorca or Ibiza.
Below, the main salon is bright and sociable, arranged around comfortable seating and a formal dining area set forward in the open plan main deck. The interior reads as warm and contemporary, with pale woods and soft upholstery that keep the mood relaxed rather than formal. Large windows draw the sea inside, and the flow between salon, deck and flybridge is easy and intuitive, exactly what a lively charter week calls for.
Accommodation is arranged across four cabins for eight guests, served by a crew of four. The full beam master sits amidships where the motion is gentlest, with generous light and a private bathroom. A guest double and a further twin for children or friends complete the layout, and every room is finished to the same standard as the shared spaces. It is a sensible, flexible arrangement for a family or two couples travelling together. Storage is well judged for a full week aboard, and the crew cabins are kept separate so service never intrudes on the guest spaces.
Performance is part of the appeal. With a top speed close to twenty nine knots, BEST OF ME covers the distance between islands quickly, so a morning in Palma and an afternoon in a quiet Formentera cove sit comfortably in the same day. At a relaxed cruise she settles into an easy rhythm, and her agile hull opens up anchorages that larger yachts simply cannot reach.
This is a yacht for people who want to be on the water, not just near it. The toys come out early, the flybridge fills up, and the crew keeps the day moving without ever making it feel managed. Snorkelling gear, paddleboards and a tender are all close at hand, and the bathing platform makes getting in and out of the water effortless. For a charter party drawn to the colour and energy of the western Mediterranean, BEST OF ME offers speed, space and a genuinely social layout in a package that is easy to love and easy to live aboard. She is a confident, well kept example of the Sunseeker that made the yard famous, and a smart choice for a week built around sunshine, swimming and the short, bright passages that define a Balearic summer.
