Easy underwater fun for all ages, exploring reefs right off the swim platform.
Easy weeks for eight. SOUTHERN BELLE is a Johnson motor yacht from 2006, coming in around 87 feet, set up to sleep 8 guests in 4 cabins. It is a straightforward platform for a grown-up group that wants space, not spreadsheets.
Owners get the main deck. The master king is forward on the main deck with his-and-hers en-suite heads and a dual-access shower between. Below, the layout stays sensible: a VIP king, plus one double and one twin, all en-suite.
Water time is simple. A swim platform and boarding ladder make getting in and out of the sea a non-event. Deck showers help keep the salt outside, where it belongs.
Toys that get used. You have a 24' Cobia center console (250 hp, 2024) plus a 14' Novurania 430DL RIB with a Yamaha 60 hp (2023) for beach runs and exploring. Add two paddleboards, sea scooters, snorkeling gear, floating mats, and a towable tube, and the “what do we do today?” question answers itself.
Connected, if you must. Wi‑Fi and Starlink are onboard, along with satellite TV and a salon TV and stereo for downtime. Air conditioning is full, because sleeping is part of the charter too.

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.
