139ft. Holland Jachtbouw Charter Yacht CALLIOPE: Innovative Build, Inspired Design

CALLIOPE is an elegant 139ft. Holland Jachtbouw, whose majesty is reflected in her name. CALLIOPE in Greek mythology is the muse of epic poetry, the daughter of Zeus and Mnemosyne. The goddess was Homer’s muse, said to inspire his epic works. CALLIOPE, with transoceanic range and capability, navigates the seas of today with elegance and assurance, inspired by a distant past when Odysseus roamed the oceans of the world.

On board CALLIOPE, the immediate impression of sophistication and refinement is augmented by impressive design innovations that are the result of input from an experienced Owner. On CALLIOPE the details are as remarkable as the overall ambiance. For example, the custom made, graceful mermaid door pulls, which stand alone as works of art, were designed by the Owner.

Other subtleties on board CALLIOPE, not immediately visible, raise the level of livability and service. The main deck salon is furnished in understated elegance featuring neutral tones with touches of delphinium blue, and connects to the formal dining room. The space can be left open for entertaining or separated by sliding shoji doors for a more intimate setting. Cleverly concealed cabinetry allows for easy access to tableware and the crew can provide discreet service through an electronic pocket door leading to the pantry and commercial galley.

The guest staterooms on board luxury yacht CALLIOPE, located on the lower deck, are finished in a soft lime oak with French provincial decor. The crew is able to service the guests by way of a secret, soundproof door in the paneling that leads to the crew quarters.

The bridge deck is a very popular area with guests and the main social area on CALLIOPE. State-of-the-art equipment allows the space to transition from a library to a media room to a party deck. The salon’s full width folding French doors open up to the aft deck providing a seamless transition from interior to exterior creating an even larger al fresco dining and entertaining area.

CALLIOPE is an intrinsically chic yacht that even the most demanding charter clients will recognize as superior in all respects. This unparalleled superyacht is an excellent charter option for corporate retreats, or families and friends that demand five star service and luxurious accommodations aboard a prestigious vessel.

Our Charter Experts On Board LIONSHARE: Nautical Tradition, Contemporary Aesthetic

Our first impressions when setting foot on board LIONSHARE during the 2011 Antigua Charter Yacht Show were of an incomparably handsome yacht dedicated to enjoying life at sea without too much distraction, in other words, an excellent yachtsman`s yacht. Spaces are distinctly free from clutter creating a serene environment. Walkways are generous and the orderly design and placement of furnishings facilitates circulation throughout the yacht.

The interior of this luxurious Heesen 130 was designed by Clifford Denn and features contemporary architecture and furnishings in opposing dark and pale tones with dark wood highlights and rich hardwood floors. The atmosphere is sophisticated and stunning. The main deck on LIONSHARE features a plush lounging area with only the suggestion of separation from the dining area produced by two columns and a buffet cabinet.

LIONSHARE features accommodations for 11 guests in five ensuite staterooms. Crisp white linens, soft lighting and minimal furnishings create a zen-like environment conducive to relaxation.

LIONSHARE features plenty of open deck living space and an especially awesome, forward facing Jacuzzi with a generous surround of sun pads. It was easy to imagine sitting in the Jacuzzi, making a grand entrance into a new and exciting port of call, tropical cocktail in hand, magnificent view all around.

LIONSHARE is currently available for charter in the Caribbean with plans for summer 2012 charters in the Eastern Mediteranean region. This is an excellent yacht for discriminating guests who require the utmost in service and appreciate nautical tradition with a contemporary aesthetic.

Perini Navi 56m PANTHALASSA: A Superyacht Charter with the WOW Factor

James Bond is right at home in this superbly elegant environment of cutting-edge design. PANTHALASSA`s sumptuous teak sole and saddle leather wall paneling integrates seamless social spaces defined by functional furniture groupings. Interior accents are bathed in natural

light that flows through a sweep of windows and an array of skylights.  The area is designed for guests to melt into a state of blissful relaxation amongst throw cushions, cashmere throws, ergonomic chairs, sprawling couches and handmade silk floor rugs.

PANTHALLASSA is number nine in the series of ten 56m hulls built by Perini Navi.  Built to spec for individual owners, each has special details.  For example, on the upper deck of PANTHALASSA, the Owners opted for a huge skylight in place of the on-deck Jacuzzi, a better fit with their ideology. They feel that the deck is for relaxing and the ocean is for swimming.

The Captain has been on the yacht from the design stage at the Perini Navi shipyard. He describes the build process as “fascinating, a real challenge and something as a yachtie I’ve always wanted to do…the timing was pretty bad though. It was all through the real horror of the financial crisis, not the best time to be building a big yacht.  Perini though, if anybody is recession proof those guys are. They’ve boomed, that’s the only word for it.” PANTHALAASSA emerged as proof in 2010.

PANTHALASSSA is a high-performance sailing machine that finished well in the Perini Cup this year, winning the race on day two. Her helm display is an amazing array of state-of-the-art navigation equipment, computer screens, gauges, dials, and controls, and the Captain is adept with optimizing the technology in any sea condition.

Just off the helm is the cylindrical video chamber, which, with the touch of a button, becomes completely enclosed by a curved sliding door. The space can also serve as a dining area or a massage and relaxation room. However, we are told that this room gets used the most for the PlayStation.

There are many design aspects of PANTHALASSA that make it unusual. The six-cabin configuration has no master, but rather two identical aft cabins and four equal guest cabins with Pullmans. The hierarchy is there, but it is very subtle. This is an optimal layout for situations in which two families are chartering together.

Needless to say, PANTHALASSA is a very popular yacht with an enthusiastic repeat clientele. Although there are still openings available for charter this winter in the Caribbean as well as next summer in the Mediterranean, they are filling up quickly.

Charter PANTHALASSA and be guaranteed a spectacular, one-of-a-kind experience in flawless surroundings, with impeccable service and gourmet cuisine on board a true sailing machine.
