Starlink (Marine Grade) internet:

Big deck, small group. BLACKSHEEP is a 123-foot Palmer Johnson motor yacht (built 2009, refit 2023) that sleeps 8 guests in 4 cabins, so you get proper volume without needing a guest list the size of a wedding.
Jacuzzi wins the day. The sundeck leads with a large jacuzzi with optional shade, plus a new hard top from the refit to keep the top-deck hangout usable when the sun is doing the most.
Watersports, actually covered. Slide straight off the boat on the Aquabanas inflatable slide, then rotate through 2 SeaBobs (2023) and 2 Yamaha jet skis (3-seat). Plus the full Aquabanas raft with party soaker for the people who think “floating” should count as a sport. Short version: you will get wet.
Refit that matters. 2023 updates include all-new teak, upgraded AV/audio, refreshed interior soft goods, and Starlink internet, so downtime feels current and staying connected is your choice, not a struggle.
How it sleeps. A main deck master with a king bed and his-and-hers en suite, plus three guest cabins on the lower deck with en-suite bathrooms, including a cabin that converts between a king and two twins.

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 motor yacht like BLACKSHEEP, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price ($21,250 - $34,000), making the charter cost $106,250 to $119,000. 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.

| 3 day charter | 42,500USD to 47,500USD | 8,500USD to 14,250USD | 51,000USD to 61,750USD | The usual formula is the 7 day charter rate divided by 6, times the number of days (3). Boat policy might differ. 85,000USD / 6 * 3 days = 42,500USD |
