SOL SHINE is a Ferretti that has been kept to a high standard and brought up to date with a refit in 2023. Delivered in 2014, this 29 metre flybridge motor yacht offers five cabins for eight guests and a crew of five, a comfortable, well proven platform for exploring the Caribbean and the Windward Islands at an easy, unhurried pace.
Her profile is classic Ferretti, low and purposeful, and she carries her length with an easy elegance. The flybridge is the natural heart of the yacht in warm water, with a dining table, a bar and sunpads that make it the place to be from late morning onward. Forward, a generous run of sunpads on the bow gives guests a quiet spot to spread out, and the aft deck offers shaded dining and seating close to the water. A bathing platform aft opens onto the sea and the yacht’s tenders and toys, and the whole exterior is laid out so guests move easily from sunbathing to swimming to shade without ever feeling hemmed in.
Inside, the main deck is bright and open. A comfortable salon is arranged around soft seating, with a formal dining area forward and wide windows that keep the sea in view from almost every seat. The 2023 refit has kept the interior feeling current, with fresh finishes and pale, warm woods that give the spaces a relaxed, contemporary feel. The flow between salon, deck and flybridge is easy and natural, which is exactly what a sociable charter week calls for.
Accommodation runs to five cabins for eight guests. The master is positioned amidships for comfort and light, with further double cabins and a twin that make the layout flexible for a family or a group of friends. Each cabin is finished to the same standard as the shared spaces, with natural light and private bathrooms, and the layout keeps guests comfortable on longer stays. Air conditioning runs throughout, and storage has been planned for a full week away rather than a quick weekend.
SOL SHINE is built for the rhythm of a Caribbean season. Her flybridge and generous deck spaces suit long, warm days at anchor, and her size lets her slip into quieter coves and marinas that larger yachts cannot reach. The crew of five handles everything from water sports to dining, so guests can settle into the islands rather than the logistics of the day. A relaxed cruising speed keeps the passages calm and quiet, which suits the slow, sunlit pace of a Caribbean week.
This is a yacht for a charter party that values comfort, space and a genuinely social layout. The toys come out early, the flybridge fills up, and the aft deck becomes the natural gathering point at the end of each day. Well kept, recently refreshed and generously laid out, SOL SHINE is a dependable and comfortable choice for a week in the sun, from the first morning swim to the last evening spent watching the sunset from the flybridge with a drink in hand.
