At 72.6 metres, QUANTUM OF SOLACE is one of the largest yachts Turquoise Yachts has delivered, and a 2022 refit has kept her firmly current. She was designed inside and out by H2 Yacht Design, with naval architecture developed alongside Hydro Tec, and the result is a yacht built for long, unhurried cruising rather than short hops between ports. Her 7,000 nautical mile range speaks to that intent.
The defining quality of a charter aboard her is space, and how generously it has been divided. Guest and leisure areas spread across several decks, giving families and groups room to gather or slip away as the mood dictates. A dedicated spa and wellness area sits at the heart of the yacht, with a treatment and massage room, while a foredeck pool and a separate spa pool offer two distinct ways to cool off. An elevator connects the decks, a thoughtful touch on a yacht of this height that keeps every level close at hand.
Inside, the mood is warm and considered. The main salon pairs rich timber joinery with a grand piano and easy, sociable seating, opening onto the aft deck for meals that drift from lunch into evening. A separate sky lounge offers a quieter retreat, wrapped around a curved sofa and framed by sea views on three sides. The interior reads as a series of rooms with their own character rather than one continuous space, which is what gives a yacht this large its sense of intimacy.
Accommodation is arranged across seven staterooms for up to 12 guests. The master suite occupies a private stretch of the yacht, with a study, a dressing room and a full bathroom finished in stone and marble. A VIP stateroom and a run of twin and double cabins follow, each with its own en suite and a calm, layered palette of creams and dark wood. A crew of 19 keeps the experience seamless, present when needed and unobtrusive when not.
On deck, QUANTUM OF SOLACE is built for the outdoor life. The sun deck runs long and open, laid in teak and lined with loungers that catch the day from first light. A helipad sits forward for guests who prefer to arrive by air, and the aft and side decks step down toward the water for swimming, tenders and toys. Her profile is clean and confident, the work of a design team that understood restraint.
She cruises the Mediterranean through the summer, moving easily between the marquee anchorages of the South of France, Corsica, Sardinia and the Italian coast, with the range and self-sufficiency to reach quieter waters when guests prefer them. Powered by twin Caterpillar engines, she holds a comfortable 15 knots and reaches 17 at the top end.
For a charter party that values room to breathe, a genuine spa at sea and the reach to go where the crowds thin, QUANTUM OF SOLACE makes a compelling case. She is a large yacht that still feels personal, and that balance is rarer than her size suggests. Her crew tailors each day to the party aboard, from active mornings built around the water toys to slow passages spent watching the coastline slip past.
