A sixty metre charter yacht with a waterslide turns the upper decks into something closer to a private water park than a conventional superyacht. At this length, the hull volume and beam allow the slide to drop from a genuine height, often from the sun deck to the main deck pool or directly into the sea, and the crew have the space to assemble an inflatable park alongside it.
Sixty metre yachts with waterslides typically accommodate twelve guests in six or seven cabins, with a crew of sixteen to twenty. The interior volume at this size means there is no compromise between the water toy set up on the aft deck and the formal entertaining areas forward. The yacht absorbs a large family or two families comfortably, with separate zones for children and adults that keep everyone happy across a full week.
Weekly rates across this part of the fleet run from approximately one hundred thousand euros to around five hundred and fifty thousand for the most recently delivered builds. Most sit between two hundred and fifty thousand and four hundred and fifty thousand euros a week. The advance provisioning allowance, roughly thirty percent on top, covers fuel, food, berthing and drinks.
The western Mediterranean is the natural playground for this kind of charter, with calm anchorages in the Balearics, Sardinia and the Amalfi Coast offering flat water for the slide. The Caribbean works equally well in winter, particularly the British Virgin Islands and St Barts.
