About KONTIKI WAYRA
Description
Here’s a unique and compelling charter opportunity. Based on the beautiful, tropical coast of Ecuador where few other superyachts have ever sailed, the 40m (131ft) KONTIKI WAYRA is a tri-deck vessel designed to host up to 18 guests in nine cabins, offering ample living space and high standards of luxury and comfort.

KONTIKI WAYRA’s interior is custom built and individually styled by local artisans with an abundance of natural woods, woven textiles, great attention to detail and a high standard of finish throughout. She has two large, sociable lounge spaces where guests can gather, and some cosy nooks where you can relax in peace and unwind. There’s also a spa on board with a massage room and a gym.
Two of her guest cabins are suites with panoramic sea views; eight of them can convert between double and twin-bed configurations; and four of them are interconnected. All of this makes her eminently suitable for a group of several families sharing a charter.
One of KONTIKI WAYRA’s best features is the sundeck. Notably spacious for a yacht of her size, with separate zones for sunbathing, al fresco dining and sipping cocktails, plus a big jacuzzi plunge pool and a giant water slide to launch yourself straight into the sea, it’s a great place to spend a lazy day anchored in a bay or cruising along the dramatic rainforest mountain coast.
She also has a large expanse of sunpads on the foredeck, two open-air aft decks and a floating dock is deployed from her bathing platform when the anchor goes down and the toys come out. These include kayaks and paddleboards, SeaBobs and a pair of RIBs. There’s also an enclosed sea pool for safe, stress-free bathing, plus wetsuits and snorkel gear for every guest on board.
She’s the ideal platform for a seagoing holiday in this seldom-cruised part of the world and an excellent mothership for a wide range of expeditions and adventures.
