Motor yacht, 38 metres
Aurelia
A 38-metre that crosses the Atlantic every autumn, so the same crew who ran your week off Portofino can run one off St Barths in February.
Aurelia does two seasons, the Mediterranean from May to October and the Caribbean from December to April, with the same seven crew. For members who charter twice a year that continuity is worth more than any feature on the boat: the chef knows the family, the captain knows the anchorages they liked, the stewardess knows which child needs the nightlight.
Five cabins take ten, the master has its own terrace on the upper deck, and the eight-metre tender is large enough to take everyone to lunch ashore in one trip.
On board
