Feadship Charisma for Charter

Now you know that I can't stand yachts with bad interiors. For a yacht named Charisma, this boat had very little. Charisma underwent a refit several years back and the difference is amazing. If you look for them, pictures of the previous decor are out there, but you may want to gouge your eyes out after viewing them. Luckily for us, the interior bears no resemblance and now is actually on the fabulous side. Outside you have classic Feadship lines and spacious decks. Inside a luxurious decor that evokes a grand Hampton's beach house reigns where motorhome chic was once the theme. At 153 feet, this yacht doesn't skimp for space. 3 decks of living space allow plenty of room for the 12 guests to stretch out and enjoy the great amenities. Based in the Mediterranean and the Bahamas, Charisma can be chartered for $160,000 a week, plus expenses.

AME Info covers the IFA Yacht Ownership Club, which is a different concept than I have seen before. Instead of fractional yacht ownership, members pay an annual fee which gives them access to the club's services which include a fleet of luxury yachts. Different membership levels give different amounts of credits that can be used to reserve cruising days. The club currently has three Maiora yachts which are 75 to 89 feet in length in three ports, Dubai, Beirut and Cannes. The yachts can travel to a variety of places and cruise at speeds up to 28 knots. Each yacht has a captain, deckhand and steward and sleeps eight in four cabins. The yachts can also meet you in a variety of cruising destinations.
