SAINT is a Sirena 88, delivered in 2021 with a hull by German Frers, and she makes an argument that most 27-metre yachts do not: that efficiency and space are the same conversation. Frers drew her for long, economical passages at a true displacement cruise, and Sirena spent the volume that decision freed up on deck space and a main deck that feels a class larger than her length.
The headline is the on-deck master. It sits forward on the main deck, full beam, with hull windows at bed height on both sides, a dressing area, a vanity desk against the glass and an en-suite carrying a steam shower. Its door opens directly onto a private foredeck where a mosaic-tiled dip pool is set into the teak, with a sunpad forward of it. A cabin that owns its own bow is unusual anywhere; at 26.82 metres it is close to unheard of.
Three further cabins sit below, a VIP with a padded headboard and gold accents, a guest double and a twin, for eight guests in total, with crew quarters separated properly aft.
Inside, the main deck runs as one open volume in pale oak and bleached timber: an L-shaped sofa and chaise aft, two facing armchairs by the window, and a dining table forward for eight under a linear crystal fixture. The galley sits to starboard, marble-lined and fully equipped, open enough to keep the chef part of the day rather than hidden from it. Forward again, the wheelhouse takes twin helm seats and a full glass bank, a working bridge, and on a yacht that runs at 10 knots for hours at a time, a comfortable place to be.
The flybridge is the other reason charters book her. A jacuzzi sits aft in the teak with the horizon on three sides, a bar and grill run along the port side, and a large shaded lounge fills the middle. Aft and below, the swim platform carries a Bote inflatable platform with an Aquabana shade, which turns the stern into a floating deck at anchor.
Toys are chosen rather than accumulated: a 13-foot AB tender for four, the inflatable platform and Aquabana, an inflatable paddleboard for two, two Seabobs, a Sea-Doo jet ski, snorkelling gear and a towable. Kitesurfing with an instructor can be added to a package on request.
MAN engines give her 10 knots of cruise and 16 flat out, with stabilisation at anchor as well as underway, the pairing that matters most on a yacht this size, because it is what makes a lunch stop in open water pleasant rather than endurable. Her 1.83-metre draft opens the Bahamas and the Keys.
She runs out of Miami with a crew of four and is open to day charters as well as full weeks, which is rare at this level and worth knowing. For eight guests who want a modern hull, a master suite with its own bow and a yacht that moves quietly, SAINT is a precise piece of work.
Her crew keep the yacht open and informal rather than starched, and the shallow draft means a lunch anchorage is rarely more than an hour away from wherever the morning started. Few yachts her size make a day feel that unhurried.
