No Regrets Motor Yacht

Refitted in 2021, No Regrets cruises at 27 knots and will run to 33 when asked, so a bay further along the coast stops being a long haul. She is a 48ft (15m) Azimut motor yacht with a flybridge, launched in 2012 and finished inside for practicality as much as for looks.

Accommodation and crew

Two cabins sleep four guests overnight, and by day she can carry sixteen. A crew of three, a captain and two sailors, runs her, which on four overnight guests is close to a crew member each, with the handling and the housekeeping left entirely to them.

Comfort under way

Her hull pairs the pace of a sports boat with the solidity of something built for cruising, so the speed she makes does not come at the cost of an easy ride.

On deck

The flybridge adds a deck in the open air, which gives guests somewhere to sit outside the interior.

Water toys

Snorkelling gear travels with her, so a stop to swim doubles as a look at what lies under the surface.

Where she cruises

No Regrets keeps her home port in Dubai, on the United Arab Emirates coast, and the United Arab Emirates is the only country she cruises, her season peaking through November, December, January and February.

Charter notes

Half days and full days out are both on offer, with drinking water, soft drinks and towel rental included, so the basics are aboard before anyone steps on. For two couples, No Regrets works as readily for several days of living aboard as for a few hours on the water.
