About Ancora

Launched in 2023 by Mengi Yay, the 155ft (47m) superyacht Ancora sets the standard for guests who value comfort and refinement at sea. Her 5 staterooms – configured as 1 King, 2 Queen and 2 Twin/Double – accommodate up to 10 overnight guests or 12 for day charters, with a professional crew of 9 delivering attentive, unhurried service from the moment guests step aboard.

 

Stability & Refinement

Fitted with Stabilizers, Ancora 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, and a beach club 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 12 water toys, including a jet ski, a Seabob, an e-foil, SUP boards, a wakeboard, kayaks, and towable inflatables. The 16.5m Maori chase tender and 5m Castoldi tender 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.

 

Destinations

Ancora is available for charter across Monaco, France, Italy, Malta, Spain, St Barths, St Martin, Anguilla, British Virgin Islands, USVI, St Kitts and Nevis, Antigua and Barbuda, St Lucia, Barbados, Grenadines and Bahamas in the Mediterranean, Caribbean, and Bahamas, repositioning seasonally to follow the best weather and cruising conditions. The recommended months are Jan, Feb, Mar, Jul, Aug, Dec, when conditions and anchorages are at their finest. Your captain crafts a bespoke route balancing secluded coves, waterfront dining, and vibrant harbour towns – adjusted daily to weather and the group’s mood.
