ALFA

ALFA is a Posillipo motor yacht, recently refitted, and she suits a family or a group of friends who want their days to move easily between swims, lunches and quiet anchorages. The mood aboard is relaxed rather than formal. Her crew is young and engaged, and they run the yacht with a light touch, so a charter feels well looked after without ever feeling stiff.

Below deck, the layout is built around flexibility. The master suite spans the full width of the yacht and comes with a separate dressing space and its own bathroom, a proper retreat at the end of a day in the sun. A VIP cabin and a pair of twin cabins complete the accommodation, and the twins have Pullman berths, which helps when children or mixed groups are aboard. Every cabin is air-conditioned.

The main salon brings together soft seating and a dining table in one open room, finished in clean lines and pale tones, with plenty of daylight coming through. Outside, the broad sundeck is where most meals and sunset drinks happen, while the foredeck sunbathing area offers somewhere quieter to read or doze. Connectivity is dependable, which is useful when someone needs to stay in touch.

The swim platform is the centre of life at anchor. Open it up and it becomes a beach club for the water: Jet Ski SPARK, Seabob, E-Foil, water skis for adults and children, canoe, SUP, and basic fishing and snorkelling equipment, with a Novurania tender for getting ashore. Cruising Greek waters, with Turkey also within her range, she is well placed for island-hopping, with the crew's local knowledge shaping each day.
