VIVIERAE II Yacht Description
-
2 Electric Fliteboards:
The most popular toy right now, great for gliding quietly over flat bays. -
Hyperbaric dive chamber:
Serious dive support onboard, alongside a dive compressor and complete scuba equipment sets. -
Starlink Satellite Internet:
Reliable connection for emails and streaming, including onboard Wi‑Fi calling to the USA.
Explorer scale, compact. VIVIERAE II is a 98ft Nordhavn built in 2017 and refit in 2023, set up for long days underway with stabilizers and proper outdoor living on deck. Sleeps 8 guests.
Sun deck wins. A deck jacuzzi and sun pads make the top deck the default hangout. Quick reset between swims. Then back in.
Serious water access. The swim platform keeps entries and exits simple, and you have a big 2023 38ft Metal Shark tender with triple 300hp outboards plus 17ft and 19ft RIBs for beach runs and tow sports logistics without the usual faff.
Toys for adults. Two electric Fliteboards, towable tube, adult waterskis, paddleboards, kayaks, surf board and floating mats cover the surface program, while scuba diving equipment and a dive compressor support certified diving. Big game fishing gear is onboard when sitting still is not the plan.
Connected, not unplugged. Starlink satellite internet and Wi‑Fi keep work and streaming doable, with TVs in all cabins for the quieter hours and air conditioning when you want the doors shut.

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 VIVIERAE II, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price ($22,500 - $36,000), making the charter cost $112,500 to $126,000. 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 | 45,000USD to 48,000USD | 9,000USD to 14,400USD | 54,000USD to 62,400USD | The usual formula is the 7 day charter rate divided by 6, times the number of days (3). Boat policy might differ. 90,000USD / 6 * 3 days = 45,000USD |
