Core upload to your brain: SOPHIE BLUE is a 41m CBI Navi with a full 2024 refit, a proper steel hull and a long-range fuel capacity designed for people who actually want to use the yacht, not just park it in photos. She sleeps up to 10–12 guests in 5–6 cabins (typical charter setup: 10 guests in 5 cabins) with an on‑deck master and all cabins en suite, so nobody draws the short straw.
Top‑deck reality check: big sun deck, proper deck Jacuzzi, and a foredeck loaded with oversized sunpads. This is the “everyone disappears for hours” zone: some in the hot tub, some under the sun, some pretending to check email on the Wi‑Fi while actually doom‑scrolling in peace. At anchor, stabilizers keep the boat civilized so drinks stay in glasses, not on upholstery.
Water‑toy stack: this is not a token tender + one sad donut situation. Expect jetski / waverunner action, Seabobs, e‑foil / hydroflyer style toys, towables (banana, donuts), waterskis, sea scooter, plus snorkelling and light fishing gear. Translation: if someone on board gets “bored”, that’s a user error.
Interior operating system: LUCA DINI Design & Architecture did the inside – dark woods, clean lines, bright soft furnishings and a separate formal dining room for when you want to pretend this is a board meeting. Salon = three big sofas, bar, TV, proper social space. Full air‑conditioning throughout, strong Wi‑Fi, and a layout built for groups who actually hang out together, not just pass each other in corridors.
Why charter SOPHIE BLUE instead of the next 40‑something meter on your list: a serious 2024 refit, a big‑boy range (over 5,500 nm) for flexible itineraries, at‑anchor stabilizers, a Jacuzzi and full toy garage, wrapped in a proven CBI Navi platform with an experienced crew that includes a Michelin‑background chef. In plain terms: this is a yacht that can do the long days, the long dinners and the long showers – all at the same time – without breaking a sweat.

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 sailboat like SOPHIE BLUE, the expected APA is 15% to 30% of the charter price (€12,750 - €25,500), making the charter cost €97,750 to €110,500. 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.
