HEMILEA Motor yacht for charter

The visually striking 41-metre (135ft) HEMILEA is a late 20th Century design classic, inside and out. Her interior has of course been refreshed, but the upgrades have stayed true to the opulent spirit of her original design. She’s designed to host up to 12 guests on board in six cabins, with a versatile layout that will suit either a family yachting holiday or a charter trip with a group of friends, with seven crew to look after your needs.

Crisp, clean exterior lines give a clue to her performance potential – she cruises at 20 knots with a top speed of 31. This means you can have a lie-in and still reach your chosen anchorage early enough to pick the best spot before most of the other yachts arrive.

Her sundeck is a mezzanine space with a chic, sociable lounge/dining area, comfortable seats for high-speed motoring and several spaces for sunbathing, fore and aft. Instant shade is available with an awning and parasols, and by night you’ll have an unobstructed view gazing up at the stars. There’s also a nice, shady open-air lounge on the main deck aft when you fancy a change of scene.

When she’s anchored in a bay or off an island beach, there’s a water slide from the sundeck to the sea. She carries two jet skis so you can race each other around the anchorage, step into a pair of water skis or climb aboard one of her towable toys for a bouncy ride behind the RIB.

The main deck lounge is a bright, opulent and stylish living space that’s comfortable and devoid of visual clutter, with a sit-up bar as well as a spacious lounge and an impressive formal dining area. It’s finished in a contrasting palette of pale furnishings and dark, high-gloss varnished hardwood to give the room an inviting, smart-casual feel. Large picture windows all the way along both sides flood the lounge with natural light and wherever you choose to sit there’s a good view out.

The master cabin, all the way forward on the main deck, has a separate office, a large sofa on one side of the king size bed, and a jacuzzi bathtub in the en suite bathroom. There’s also a VIP double cabin, so she’s a good choice for two families sharing a charter. The other guest cabins are two twins and two doubles, with private en suite bathrooms – all finished in HEMILEA’s signature opulent style.
