Lady Shine Motor Yacht

A 2022 refit brought Lady Shine up to date, years after Custom Made built this 53ft (16m) motor yacht in 2011.

Where she cruises

Her home port is Capri, and her cruising, busiest in July and August, keeps to Italy, which puts her range on the coastline of Italy rather than a run between countries.

Accommodation and crew

Four cabins sleep six guests overnight. The beds are a queen, a double, a single and a twin, so a group has four separate rooms to divide between. A crew of one runs her, and air conditioning and Wi-Fi are aboard, which keeps the cabins cool and the group connected.

Comfort under way

Lady Shine cruises at 25 knots, so the water between two anchorages goes by quickly.

On deck

Her swim platform brings the sea within a step of the deck and makes climbing back aboard easy after a swim.

Water toys

A beach tender carries the group ashore, and the snorkelling gear aboard turns an anchorage into somewhere to look below the surface.

Charter notes

Lady Shine makes an easy hire for a family or friends travelling together who want a crewed boat at a manageable size. By day she can carry ten, so more people can join her than stay the night.
