Jiradej Ocean Motor Yacht

Carl Galeazzi drew her interior and Stefano Righini her exterior, and Jiradej Ocean is run by two crew for a party of four, which is a crew member for every two guests aboard. She is a 43ft (13m) Azimut motor yacht, built in 2008 and refitted in 2022.

Water toys

Two SUP boards travel with her, so two people can paddle at the same time, and there is gear aboard for snorkelling and for fishing. An 11ft tender handles trips ashore.

Where she cruises

Her home port is Port Louis in Mauritius, and she cruises Mauritius year-round, with December through March her peak months.

Accommodation and crew

Her two cabins carry a queen bed and a pair of twins, both air-conditioned, with Wi-Fi throughout the yacht.

Comfort under way

She cruises at 24 knots and will hold 34 flat out, so she can cover distance quickly when the party wants to move.

On deck

Her swim platform puts the water a step below the deck, which makes getting back aboard after a swim or off a board straightforward.

Charter notes

Jiradej Ocean suits two couples with a cabin each, and she also takes day charters for up to ten guests, so a wider group can hire her for a day on the water.
