Viktoria Motor Yacht

A refit in 2021 is the most recent work on Viktoria, a 75ft (22m) motor yacht built by Azimut in 2010. Air conditioning runs throughout and there is Wi-Fi aboard, and her peak months are November, December, January and February.

Water toys

Snorkelling gear travels with her, so a swim off the yacht can turn into a proper look at what lies under the surface.

Where she cruises

Sharjah, in the United Arab Emirates, is her home port, and her range takes in the United Arab Emirates itself along with Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait, four countries of coast she can work between rather than a single stretch of water.

Accommodation and crew

Four cabins sleep eight guests, two of them with queen beds and two laid out as twins, which lets a mixed group sort itself between doubles and twin rooms. A crew of three looks after the eight aboard.

Comfort under way

Viktoria cruises at 25 knots and will run up to 34, so a bay further along the shore stays within reach of the same day.

Charter notes

She answers best to a family or a group of friends, and she works at two scales: eight sleep aboard in her four cabins, while by day as many as thirty-eight can be on board, with day and half-day bookings both open. That is the useful part of a hire like this – a crowd can come out on the water for the day, and a smaller party can stay on for the nights.
