Crazy Diamond

Ease at anchor is the detail that matters most to an owner who actually lives aboard, and Crazy Diamond has it built in. Monte Carlo delivered the 69-foot flybridge motor yacht in 2016, fitted with a zero speed stabilisation system that keeps her still whether she is moving or moored. That is the sort of feature an owner notices on every trip, not just the big one.

Build and provenance

She is a flybridge motor yacht on a composite hull, styled by Nuvolari Lenard both inside and out, part of Monte Carlo Yachts' flybridge range.

Layout and accommodation

Eight guests sleep across four cabins, two fitted with a double bed and two with twin beds, and every cabin has its own bathroom. The master suite sits amidships, its round windows bringing in natural light, with a separate seating area and a walk-in wardrobe. A second cabin is finished to VIP standard with its own double bed and bathroom, so the two main cabins both feel like a primary suite rather than one dominating the other.

Performance and engineering

At sea she cruises at 22 knots and reaches 29 knots flat out, figures suited to coastal running rather than long crossings. A beam of 5.45 metres and a draft of 1.8 metres keep her manageable in the marinas she is likely to visit, and her tanks hold 4,000 litres of fuel and 800 litres of fresh water, enough for several days without a refuel.

Where she lies and how to see her

Crazy Diamond lies in Antibes, France. A viewing is arranged through Boatcrowd, and we are on hand throughout it. If an offer follows, the survey and sea trial come next, before the sale completes.
