About Checkmate
Five cabins holding eleven guests is the starting point with Checkmate: a full-displacement layout built by Custom Line for living aboard rather than sprinting between ports. She is a 2022-built Navetta, at 93 feet, and a crew of five keeps that many guests properly looked after.
Build and provenance
Custom Line built her in 2022 as a Navetta, a monohull with a displacement hull rather than a planing one. That hull shape, matched to her 13-knot cruising speed, points to a yacht built for a steady, efficient passage rather than a fast one.
Layout and accommodation
Eleven guests sleep across five cabins, with a crew of five to run the yacht and look after them day to day. A crew that size against eleven guests points to proper service rather than a stretched, self-crewed arrangement.
Performance and engineering
Two 1,000 hp MAN V8-1000 diesels drive her at a 13-knot cruise, in keeping with the displacement hull beneath her: built for a comfortable, efficient passage rather than a fast one. There is no faster gear to reach for; the hull and the engines are matched to the same brief.
Where she lies and how to see her
Checkmate lies in Ibiza, Spain. Boatcrowd sets up viewings and is present for them, and once an offer is accepted a survey and sea trial follow before the sale is finalised.

Buying Costs
- Survey
- A buyer normally commissions a condition survey, and a sea trial, once an offer is accepted and before the sale becomes unconditional. The cost depends on her size and on where she is lifted, and it is the buyer who appoints the surveyor.
- Registration and flag
- She will be registered on a flag of the buyer's choosing, which carries its own fees and its own survey and crew requirements. Where the yacht is owned through a company, the shares rather than the vessel may change hands, which changes what is payable.
- VAT and import
- Whether VAT is due, and where, depends on the yacht's current status, her flag, the buyer's residency and where she is delivered. Where the seller has stated her VAT status, it is shown with the asking price on her page, and it is confirmed in writing before an offer is made.
- Running costs
- Crew, berthing, insurance, class and annual maintenance continue from the day she is yours. A yacht that is also chartered earns against them, and we will set out what her season has actually returned before you commit.
Estimated running costs for a yacht of her size are set out on the size page: What a yacht of 24 to 30 m costs to run.
