A cinema and an e-foil on the same charter yacht sit at opposite ends of the energy spectrum. The cinema is the quiet centre of the evening, a darkened room below deck where the group settles after dinner into deep seating and a wide screen. The e-foil is the loudest part of the afternoon, a battery-powered hydrofoil board that lifts riders above the surface at twenty five knots with no engine noise at all. Thirteen yachts carry both.
The fleet starts at thirty five metres with Bang!, a Benetti at ninety thousand euros a week, and Maxita at seventy five thousand. Cristal, at forty eight metres, carries up to twenty five guests. Through the middle, Grace, Holdin’ My Own, Kamalaya, Blue II and Treehouse run between two hundred and fifty five thousand and three hundred and eighty thousand, with dedicated cinema rooms and full water toy inventories. Lady Britt, Ventum Maris and Sunrays push towards sixty to eighty five metres, and Lady S, at ninety three metres, reaches one million seven hundred and fifty thousand.
Weekly rates open at seventy five thousand euros and reach one million seven hundred and fifty thousand, with the median around three hundred and ten thousand. Add roughly thirty percent for the advance provisioning allowance covering fuel, food, berthing and e-foil charging.
Cruising grounds span the Mediterranean in summer, where Greece, the South of France and the Balearics offer calm bays for e-foiling and warm evenings for outdoor screenings on deck. Several yachts winter in the Caribbean.
