Seven Stars Motor Yacht

An Antago is a rare thing to come across, and Seven Stars is the only example in the fleet – an 83ft (25m) motor yacht from 2004, refitted in 2016, her hull moulded in GRP.

Water toys

She carries six toys. A Seadoo jet ski puts a single rider on open water, a SUP board and an inflatable kayak work at a much slower pace, and a banana and a donut are aboard for anyone happy to be towed along. There is snorkelling gear too, and a 12ft Williams jet tender for going ashore.

Where she cruises

Home port is Sicily, in Italy, and her cruising grounds take in Italy and Malta.

Accommodation and crew

Four staterooms sleep eight guests overnight, two of them fitted with double beds and two with twins, and a crew of three runs her.

Comfort under way

A pair of MTU engines gives Seven Stars a cruise of 24 knots and 32 knots at full throttle, on 500 litres an hour, which means a distant anchorage is no great undertaking, with July and August her peak months.

On deck

A swim platform lets guests step down to the sea instead of climbing back over the side, and the cabins are air-conditioned, with Wi-Fi aboard.

Charter notes

She suits a family or a group of friends taking the whole boat on charter, and rods are carried for anyone who wants to fish. Twelve can be aboard by day, more than she sleeps, so a family who hires her can bring friends out onto the water.
