'Following an extensive refit, the multi award-winning MALTESE FALCON delivers exceptional sailing performance in uncompromised luxury.

'MALTESE FALCON offers gorgeous and comfortable interiors and exteriors for all. Her main place for social gatherings is the spacious lounge with bar and piano, opening to the main deck aft's al fresco dining and seating areas.

Rates: from EUR 196,000 per week
Ask us about MAXIMUS
'MAXIMUS is a magnificent addition to our fleet of sailing yachts. She looks like a classic ketch, a real old-school head-turner, but below the water she is designed for speed. Indeed Vitters, the yard that delivered this Frers-designed flyer in 2023 described her as “a wolf in sheep’s clothing”.
‘As well as an exhilarating turn of speed, she has plenty of well-sheltered, family-friendly deck space while sailing and masses of it at anchor. Add a huge selection of toys and an eager-to-please, talented crew under Captain Lars and you have the perfect sailing charter package.’
Katie Stevens, Charter Manager

Ask us about NORFOLK STAR
'If you’d like to experience the pure joy of sailing, wonder and adventures, NORFOLK STAR is perfect for you. She is ideal for families. Her shaded main cockpit, accessed from both side decks, is line-free and split into two areas: one with comfortable seating around a circular coffee table, the other serves as a dining area. The yacht has great outdoor spaces for sunbathing with her large raised sunpad area on the aft deck and up forward, you can tan sailor-style in a hammock or on sun loungers – isn’t that what it’s all about?
'Her light, cherry-wood interior is comfortable for everyone. The upper lounge, with seating, desk and wraparound views, is separated from the cockpit by doors on the port and starboard sides, giving guests privacy while underway or at anchor. Heading down to her lower deck, leading aft to guest cabins and forward into the lower lounge with its cosy lounge to port and the walnut table to starboard, another dining option.
NORFOLK STAR is the perfect yacht for intimate gatherings!'
