Onboard PENELOPE in Sanremo. Had fil refit last year and is in mint condition. The result is a more classic yacht in new condition.
Very Italian charm interior. The master cabin is extraordinary and has an exceptionally large private office. The play of light wood, with darker framing, cream colored carpets and marble is stunning.PENELOPE is a very good value yacht. Her age keeps this price lower
chef is also a sommelier and holds top level of Italian wine certification.
This yacht is ideal for wine focused charters - the chef recommends the Marisa Cuomo on the Amalfi Coast and Cantina Canus wine region in north Italy.Italian, Spanish and English speaking crew. The main cruising areas are Amalfi Coast, Sicily and Aeolian Islands.

Big yacht, simple win. PENELOPE is a 48m (157'6") ISA motor yacht built in 2005 and refit in 2024-2025, set up to sleep 12 guests in 6 cabins. The layout is tri-deck, with the kind of volume that keeps a full charter group from living on top of each other.
Jacuzzi, then lunch. The sundeck has a deck Jacuzzi with surrounding sunpads, plus plenty of al fresco space across three exterior deck levels for actual group time. There’s also easy flow from the main deck aft down to the swim platform for quick dips without turning it into a logistical exercise.
A master suite that counts. The full-beam master is on the main deck and comes with two marble bathrooms (one with a shower, one with a bathtub) and a separate office zone. The remaining guest accommodation sits on the lower deck: a VIP, two doubles, and two twins, all en-suite.
Toys with range. For water time, PENELOPE carries two tenders (Novurania 5.50 and Williams 4.50), two WaveRunners, two SUPs, plus waterskis, inflatables, and snorkeling equipment. When you want to go offline, there’s air conditioning; when you don’t, Wi‑Fi/Starlink is on board.

Price Terms
Plus Expenses - add APA to the price you see
Plus Expenses arrangement includes the boat and crew only (without tip).
All additional/variable expenses such as Gas and Food are deducted from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) - an additional deposit that is added on top of the charter price.
The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption).
For a yacht like PENELOPE, the expected APA is not defined for this type of yacht. Exact amount will be confirmed after inquiry.
You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled).
The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.
