Launched in 2022 by CRN, the 203ft (62m) superyacht RIO I sets the standard for guests who value comfort and refinement at sea. Her 7 staterooms – configured as 3 King, 2 Queen, 2 Twin – accommodate up to 12 overnight guests or 12 for day charters, with a professional crew of 15 delivering attentive, unhurried service from the moment guests step aboard.
Stability & Refinement
Fitted with Stabilizers, RIO I maintains a steady, comfortable platform whether at anchor in a quiet bay or cruising at 12 knots between destinations. The Deck Jacuzzi provides a natural gathering point for evenings under the stars, while a deck jacuzzi, a swim platform, a beach club, an on-board gym, and an entertainment system round out the onboard amenities. Generous deck spaces invite long lunches, sundowners, and lazy afternoons. Below deck, each stateroom is a private retreat – spacious, climate-controlled, and finished to boutique-hotel standards. The onboard chef prepares meals tailored to the group’s tastes and dietary preferences.
Water Toys & Activities
Guests have access to 14 water toys, including two seadoo WaveRunners, four seabobs, an inflatable flightboard, an inflatable flight scooter, SUP boards, waterskis, wakeboards, kayaks, inflatable and towable toys, beach set ups, scuba diving and fishing. The Pascoe Beachlander tender (8m), Rescue tender (5m) serves as a versatile shuttle for beach landings, snorkeling excursions, and coastal exploration beyond the main yacht’s reach. The crew manages all equipment and safety briefings, so guests simply choose their activity and go. Whether the group prefers high-energy watersports or peaceful snorkeling in sheltered bays, each day is shaped around what the group wants.
