SOUTHERN BELLE Yacht Description
-
14' Novurania 430DL RIB with Yamaha 60hp (2023):
A versatile tender perfect for island explorations and quick water adventures with up to 8 guests. -
Sea scooters onboard:
Premium water toys offering exciting underwater fun, enhancing guests’ time exploring beneath the waves. -
Floating water mats and paddleboards (2 included):
Relaxed water lounging and playful paddleboarding—great for families and friends to enjoy together.
Start with the fact that this 87’ Johnson runs with a **brand‑new 24’ Cobia center‑console towed tender** and a newer Novurania RIB. Translation: you’re not just chartering a yacht, you’re chartering your own fast chase boat for beach runs, snorkeling drops, and casual fishing with proper rods onboard. The mothership is the hotel; the Cobia is the fun button.
Inside, the layout is built for grown‑up groups who like privacy: **four en‑suite cabins for up to eight guests**, including a **main‑deck master king** with his‑and‑hers bathrooms and a shared shower, plus a full‑beam VIP king forward, a double, and a twin. Everyone gets a real cabin, real head, and real doors that close – no “converted lounges” or “bunk‑luck” situations.
On deck, it’s about simple, usable space: shaded lounging with **full A/C**, sun awnings and bimini when you want to hide from the UV, and a proper **swim platform** with ladder and deck shower so getting in and out of the water doesn’t feel like an obstacle course. Floating mats, paddleboards, sea scooters and snorkel gear keep the water time busy without needing a jet‑ski fleet.
For the non‑aquatic faction, the yacht runs **Starlink Wi‑Fi**, satellite TV, and a full multimedia setup, so work calls, streaming and sports actually work at sea. Add indoor and outdoor dining with BBQ, and this becomes a very clear proposition: a proven 87’ motor yacht with serious tender support, real en‑suite cabins for eight, solid toys, and reliable connectivity – built for groups who care more about function and layout than Instagram gimmicks.

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 SOUTHERN BELLE, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price ($13,500 - $21,600), making the charter cost $67,500 to $75,600. 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 | 27,000USD to 29,500USD | 5,400USD to 8,850USD | 32,400USD to 38,350USD | The usual formula is the 7 day charter rate divided by 6, times the number of days (3). Boat policy might differ. 54,000USD / 6 * 3 days = 27,000USD |
