Yemaja Motor Yacht

Under way, Yemaja draws 450 litres of fuel an hour – the working figure behind an 85ft (26m) motor yacht that Ferretti launched in 2021.

Where she cruises

Rome is her home port and Naples a second base, so guests have two points on the coast to join her from, and her cruising keeps to Italy, with July and August her peak months.

Accommodation and crew

Eight guests sleep in four cabins, on a king, two queens and a double, and a crew of four looks after them – two guests to each crew member when she is full. Air conditioning runs in the cabins and Wi-Fi reaches the whole boat, so a group stays in touch without going ashore.

Comfort under way

She cruises at 21 knots and holds 31 in reserve, which means distance takes less time out of a day on the water.

Water toys

Two Seabobs let a pair of guests be on the water at the same time, and Yemaja also carries water skis and snorkelling gear.

Charter notes

Yemaja is chartered by the week and suits a family or a group of friends who want to cover the coast of Italy and still get into the water. Twelve can be aboard by day, so a week's hire has room for more of the group on the water than there are beds below.
