Senza Parola Motor Yacht

The sport edition of her Aicon model, refitted in 2017, Senza Parola uses 180 litres of fuel an hour under way – a 57ft (17m) motor yacht launched in 2007, with teak in the cockpit and on the swim platform.

Water toys

An 11ft Brig tender with a 30hp outboard travels with her, and a jet ski comes on request. A Seabob, a paddleboard, water skis, a wakeboard and snorkelling gear are aboard too, so a stop in a quiet bay offers more than swimming.

Where she cruises

Senza Parola keeps her home port at Sibenik in Croatia, and her range runs along the Croatian coast and on to Montenegro, shoreline in two countries to choose between.

Accommodation and crew

Three cabins, each with a bathroom, sleep six between a king, a queen and a twin, and the crew of two have their own cabin and bathroom. Air conditioning is adjustable cabin by cabin, Wi-Fi runs through the boat, and her season peaks in July and August.

Comfort under way

She cruises at 20 knots and will run to 32, and bow and stern thrusters make a tight berth straightforward.

On deck

Wide steps lead to the flybridge, where a dining area and a large sunbed sit under a broad bimini and the wet bar's barbecue and fridge allow cooking in the open air. Table and chairs in the cockpit seat guests outdoors, and the hot and cold shower at the stern takes the salt off after a swim.

Charter notes

Senza Parola suits a family or a few friends sharing the boat, and she can be hired for three days. Twelve can be aboard for a day on the water, more than the six she sleeps, so a wider group can come along.
