JOMAR is a Mangusta with pace in her blood. A forty metre open motor yacht from Overmarine, the Italian yard that effectively invented the fast maxi open, she pairs a long, lean profile with a planing hull and real power, so a group can cover ground quickly and still step aboard a yacht that feels warm and settled at anchor. A thorough 2024 refit has kept her fresh, and for ten guests who want speed without giving up comfort she is a genuinely fun choice.
Her lines are unmistakable. The low, stretched Mangusta profile is built around going fast and looking good doing it, and twin diesels back the promise up with a lively thirty knot top end and an easy high speed cruise. On a coast where the best beaches and anchorages are often a good run apart, that turn of pace changes the day: a distant cay becomes a lunch stop rather than a passage, and the yacht shrinks the map around you.
Inside, the mood softens into something warm and classic. The main saloon is finished in rich timber with comfortable seating gathered beneath large windows, and forward sits a separate formal dining area set for sociable evenings. A real pleasure of her layout is the enclosed bridge, a proper helm with leather chairs and a clear outlook, where guests can share the view and the run with the captain. A well equipped galley supports the crew without intruding on the guest spaces.
Accommodation is arranged for ten guests across five cabins. The master is a calm, private retreat with its own ensuite, and four further cabins, a mix of doubles and twins including a practical bunk cabin, look after the rest of the party in comfort. The joinery is warm and consistent throughout, the cabins bright and well kept, and the extra fifth cabin gives her a flexibility that many yachts of her length cannot match.
Her deck spaces are built for sun and sociability. The aft deck sets up for al fresco dining in the shade, with further dining and lounging along the side decks, while the foredeck opens into generous sun pads for swimming stops and lazy afternoons. A foredeck gym gives the energetic somewhere to work out with a sea view, and the bathing platform brings the water and the toys within easy reach.
A crew of six keeps the driving, the cooking and the service smooth and unobtrusive through the week, the daily rhythm kept easy from one anchorage to the next. The 2024 refit brought her finishes and systems up to date, so she feels cared for rather than tired, and she is a straightforward, uncomplicated yacht to charter.
Her natural grounds are the clear water and palm fringed cays of the Caribbean, where her speed, her shade and her warm interior suit long sunny days and quick hops between islands. JOMAR is for guests who want a fast, friendly and genuinely sociable motor yacht rather than a slow and formal one, and she brings that mix to the fleet with real character.
