BOADICEA is a 76.6-metre (251’4″) Amels flagship that ranks among the largest and most characterful yachts available for private charter today. Launched in 1999 and designed inside and out by the celebrated Terence Disdale, she carries an exceptional 2,191GT of interior volume across five decks, a scale that places her firmly in the upper tier of the charter market. Continuous reinvestment, most recently a comprehensive 2024 refit, has kept her feeling thoroughly contemporary: the works introduced a crisp new exterior colour scheme, refreshed interiors and the addition of a twelve-seat cinema, ensuring that decades after her debut she remains stylish, superbly equipped and highly competitive.
Her interior layout makes intelligent use of that generous volume. Across four interior decks, expansive social spaces are balanced with quieter, more intimate corners, so the yacht feels open and airy without ever becoming overwhelming. Disdale’s original vision has been honoured throughout, then gently updated with modern artwork, contemporary fabrics and carefully chosen furnishings. On the main deck, a warm walnut-panelled main salon sets the tone, with comfortable seating and large windows that draw in natural light; forward lies the new movie theatre, fitted with the latest audio-visual technology for private screenings at sea. An additional upper-deck salon, refreshed with bespoke Roche Bobois furniture and a cinema-style projector, offers a second bright lounge for relaxed afternoons and evening gatherings. A central lift and wraparound staircase connect every level, making movement around the yacht effortless for guests of all ages.
Accommodation is a particular highlight. BOADICEA sleeps up to eighteen guests across nine staterooms and offers the rare luxury of two full master suites, ideal for dual principals or multi-generational groups chartering together. The upper-deck master is positioned forward with panoramic bow views, his-and-hers bathrooms, a generous dressing room, a private office and a completely secluded forward-facing terrace, while a light-filled VIP suite sits alongside it. The second master occupies the main deck as the sole cabin on that level, affording exceptional privacy. Six further staterooms on the deck below, five queens and one twin, provide flexibility for different parties, and several enjoy direct access to the swim platform.
Outdoors, her decks are designed to make the most of her size. The sundeck stars a six-metre counter-current pool framed by wide sunpads and a full bar, while the bridge deck offers an open-air gym that flows into a comprehensive indoor wellness suite complete with a steam room, hydro-massage tub, reformer Pilates, a manicure bar and a dedicated treatment room served by an onboard therapist. At sea level, the beach club and swim platform extend into a vast waterborne playground, with an AquaBanas sea pool with anti-jellyfish netting, integrated jet-ski docks, sunloungers and a cabana.
A comprehensive fleet of tenders and toys, led by a thirteen-metre Pirelli chase tender and including e-foils, Seabobs, jet-skis, paddleboards and more, keeps every generation entertained. With her commanding presence, rare combination of volume and dual masters, and resort-style amenities, BOADICEA is an outstanding choice for families and groups seeking space, style and versatility. She cruises the East and West Mediterranean in summer and the Caribbean and Bahamas in winter, supported by a professional crew of 24.
