WHY NOT Yacht Description
-
1 standup Jet Ski and 2 Seabobs:
Premium water toys for fun and exploration; Seabobs are the top seascooter brand loved by all guests. -
Foredeck Jacuzzi with sunpads:
Perfect for relaxing with cocktails and sea views, adding romance and luxury to your charter time. -
High-speed cruising at 26 knots with max 31 knots:
Fast cruising means you can explore more islands and hidden gems across the Mediterranean efficiently.
Start with the obvious upgrade: WHY NOT is a 23m Dominator flybridge yacht with a 2024 refit, a foredeck jacuzzi and Starlink internet. Translation: you get a compact, fast motor yacht where the best seat in the house is a hot tub on the bow, not a barstool in the saloon.
Outside is where this boat makes sense. The foredeck is basically a private spa deck – sunpads wrapped around a jacuzzi – while the flybridge runs the social zone: corner dining, bar, daybed and a soft bimini you can roll back when everyone decides shade was overrated. Aft, there’s a clean alfresco dining area leading straight down to the swim platform and the toys.
Toys aren’t an afterthought: a Williams Jet 385 tender, stand‑up jetski, 2 x Seabobs, wakeboard, adult waterskis and snorkelling kit. For a 6‑guest yacht, that’s a disproportionate amount of ways to get wet fast, which is the whole point.
Inside, it’s built for one real family or one real group: up to 6 guests in 3 ensuite cabins – master, VIP and a twin that converts to a double. No Pullmans, no “bunk compromise” cabin. Just three proper rooms, all with Smart TVs, full‑boat air‑conditioning and Wi‑Fi running on Starlink so your office can watch you not working in 4K.
Why charter WHY NOT instead of another 75‑footer: you get a freshly refit, 26‑knot planing yacht with a foredeck jacuzzi, serious water toy load‑out, and a 4‑person crew focused solely on 6 guests. That ratio means better service, faster logistics, smoother days – and more time in the hot tub pretending this is a rational life choice.

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 WHY NOT, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price (€7,500 - €12,000), making the charter cost €37,500 to €42,000. 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.
