Four cabins and nine guests is a layout that favours intimacy over capacity. It suits a family of four or five with dedicated staterooms for parents and children plus two guest cabins for grandparents or friends, or a group of couples travelling with a solo companion. With nine aboard rather than the typical twelve, common spaces breathe and crew attention sharpens.
Seven charter yachts carry this configuration, spanning twenty four to fifty seven metres. Graya, a twenty four metre Sunreef catamaran, sails flat and fast across open water, while Twizzle, a fifty seven metre Royal Huisman ketch, combines a performance rig with superyacht volumes. Benetti, Feadship, Sanlorenzo and Alloy Yachts each contribute a vessel, giving the selection a range of style and sea-keeping character that belies its size.
Weekly rates start at fifty eight thousand euros for Endless Summer, a thirty metre Benetti, and climb to one hundred and forty thousand for Twizzle. The median sits near eighty three thousand euros. Budget an additional thirty percent for the advance provisioning allowance, which covers fuel, food, berthing and drinks.
Greece, the Dalmatian coast and the Balearics anchor the summer calendar, where moderate draughts open harbours and anchorages that larger yachts bypass. From November the Caribbean takes over, with the Grenadines, Antigua and the British Virgin Islands offering sheltered coves and steady trade winds.
