PARA BELLUM Yacht Description
-
Aft-deck infinity swimming pool:
Unique for a Sanlorenzo explorer, perfect for family fun and relaxing swims with panoramic sea views. -
Two Seabob F5 submersible scooters:
Premium Seabobs let guests glide silently underwater, adding excitement for water sports lovers and explorers. -
Jet ski SEADOO Spark TRIXX and GTX LTD 300:
Rare on explorers; high-performance jetskis bring thrill and adventure for guests eager to explore waters.
Let’s start with the headline glitch: PARA BELLUM is a 47m, 2023 Sanlorenzo explorer with an aft‑deck glass infinity pool and a vast, near–sea‑level beach deck of about 113m². Translation: you’re basically living in a private waterfront club that moves.
Deck reality check: you get an oversized quarterdeck wrapped around that pool, a full beach club with bar that opens straight to the sea, and a sundeck built like a small rooftop hotel: forward‑facing observation lounge, jacuzzi, sunpads, bar, the works. This is for groups who actually want to be outside all day, not just orbit a dining table in the saloon.
Sleep setup, not guesswork: up to 11 guests in 5+1 cabins, with a main‑deck owner’s suite that has its own fold‑down balcony, walk‑in wardrobe and lounge/adjacent cabin that can double as a private TV room or extra double. Below: 2 VIP queens and 2 twins that convert to doubles, each with a Pullman. Flexible enough for families, couples, and that one friend who books late.
Why this explorer and not the next white boat in your feed: she’s built for long‑range runs (around 5,400nm) with full‑displacement stability, a highly customised layout, and a charter‑tuned crew of 10. That means serious autonomy, proper comfort underway and fewer compromises when you decide the next stop is “far.”
Hardware for actual fun: two jet skis, Seabobs, wakeboard, adult & kids skis, SUPs, inflatable kayaks, full inflatable toy ecosystem, plus an 8.5m XO chase tender that behaves like a grown‑up boat, not a rubber accessory. And when everyone’s tired, you retreat to the cinema room, gym with Technogym kit, Starlink‑fed Wi‑Fi and a very deliberate “modern beach house” interior from top‑tier Italian designers.
Who should book PARA BELLUM: groups who want a new‑build explorer that behaves like a small resort: pool, jacuzzi, cinema, gym, huge outdoor volume and real range, instead of a static villa with a dinghy problem.

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 PARA BELLUM, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price (€75,000 - €120,000), making the charter cost €375,000 to €420,000. 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.
