MONTENAPO Yacht Charter

Start with the obvious upgrade: MONTENAPO is a brand‑new 2024 Riva 88 Folgore, built to move fast (up to 36 knots) without feeling like it. Stabilizers underway and at anchor mean you get the performance of a sport yacht without spending your charter chasing loose glasses across the table.

Real use case: 8 guests, 4 cabins, no compromise cabin. The full‑beam owner’s suite runs across the width of the hull with a walk‑in wardrobe and large ensuite, backed up by two VIP doubles (one convertible to twins) plus a twin cabin – all ensuite. Translation: four couples, or family plus friends, all get “proper cabin” status, not “sorry, you’re in the bunk room.”

Day-to-day reality on board: big, bright main salon with panoramic windows, an L‑shaped dining/lounge setup that actually seats 8 adults, and interiors by Officina Italiana Design – so it looks like a Riva is supposed to look: carbon fibre and steel touches with classic wood, not generic hotel styling.

Outside is where this boat wins: separate zones for everyone who doesn’t agree on how to “relax” – aft deck for alfresco dining, a flybridge with serious seating and sunpads, and a foredeck lounge for uninterrupted views and avoiding group conversations. Wide swim platform off the stern gives you a simple “base camp” for the toys.

Speaking of toys: Seabobs, paddleboards, kayak, inflatable towables and a fast tender. In plain English: you can idle, you can blast around, you can tow the kids, and you can still get to lunch ashore without waiting for a water taxi that never shows.

Why charter MONTENAPO instead of another 26–27m motor yacht: you’re getting a current‑year Riva, a genuine 8‑guest, 4‑cabin layout, high cruising speed with full stabilisation, and a crew of 4 focused purely on running a tight, modern charter platform. If you want new, fast, and thoughtfully laid out rather than “refitted enough for the brochure,” this is the one you short‑list.
