Admiral Yachts, trading as Advanced Italian Marine Engineering, produces displacement and semi-displacement motor yachts from 30 to 80 metres at its La Spezia facility. The yard sits within the Azimut-Benetti group but maintains a distinct identity built around full custom construction and a structural philosophy that prioritises seakeeping performance in open water. In Nice, three Admiral yachts offer charter guests a combination of Italian engineering and western Mediterranean access that few yards at this price point match.
The three vessels from Nice range from 38 to 60 metres, with interior arrangements reflecting the design studios the yard works with, including Zuccon International Project. Hull forms tend toward displacement, giving a cruise pace of 14 to 17 knots, exceptional range, and low vibration in the conditions typical of the western Mediterranean summer.
Charter rates run from approximately 60,000 to 220,000 euros per week, with an advance provisioning allowance of around 28 per cent covering fuel, marina fees at Nice, crew provisioning, and harbour dues at Villefranche-sur-Mer, Antibes, and Corsican ports.
From Nice, Admiral charters typically open with a transit to Villefranche-sur-Mer for the first night at anchor, before working southwest along the Cote d’Azur toward Antibes and Cannes, or east toward Cap Ferrat, Beaulieu-sur-Mer, and the Italian Riviera at Menton and San Remo.
