Description
Originally launched as a North Atlantic weather ship in 1963, CHAKRA yacht was transformed into a luxury megayacht by Devonport Yachts in 1998 — a remarkable conversion that preserved her classic exterior lines while creating one of the Mediterranean’s most distinctive and spacious charter yachts. At 86 metres (282 feet), CHAKRA yacht is designed for large groups, private events, and extended cruising throughout the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, and the Middle East.
Accommodation: 19 Staterooms for 24 Guests
CHAKRA yacht accommodates 24 overnight guests across 19 beautifully appointed staterooms — a cabin count that makes her one of the few superyachts in the world capable of keeping couples, singles, VIPs, and families all in separate rooms without compromise. The full-beam master suite is positioned forward on the main deck and features large windows, a private office, and a walk-in wardrobe opening into a marble-finished bathroom. Further accommodation includes VIP suites, double cabins, and twin cabins spread across three guest decks.
An elevator connecting all guest decks makes CHAKRA yacht particularly easy to move around, regardless of guest age or mobility. The yacht is also wheelchair friendly, a distinction few vessels of any size can claim and one that makes her a thoughtful choice for multi-generational groups.
Onboard Amenities & Entertainment
CHAKRA’s amenities scale with her size. The sundeck jacuzzi, flanked by sun loungers and sunpads, looks out across a 360-degree horizon. A full spa, gym, beauty room, and dedicated massage room make wellness a genuine part of the charter experience, while a large yoga area on the upper foredeck offers a quiet retreat away from the main social decks.
For entertaining, CHAKRA yacht can welcome up to 120 guests on board for events and parties, or up to 100 guests at anchor — a scale that makes her a serious option for corporate events, weddings, and milestone celebrations. A piano bar in the main salon, Karaoke system, and on-demand AV throughout all public spaces complete the entertainment package.
The water toy collection is one of the most extensive afloat: 3 jet skis (Sea-Doo GTX, Yamaha, Sea-Doo Spark), a Zapata flyboard, 2 Seabob F5s, 5 inflatable SUPs, 3 kayaks, waterskis, wakeboards, a kneeboard, bodyboard, banana, donut, bounce trampoline, and a yacht slide. Full snorkelling equipment and sport accessories complete the package. CHAKRA is also an RYA approved centre, offering PWC training on board.
CHAKRA’s 10,000-nautical-mile range at cruising speed of 12.8 knots (top speed 14 knots) supports serious global itineraries. In summer she takes on the Mediterranean — the French Riviera, Italy, Greece, and the Balearics — while winter brings her to the Caribbean, the Arabian Gulf, and the Red Sea.
Charter CHAKRA Yacht: Destinations & Sample Itinerary
Summer on the CHAKRA yacht typically begins on the French Riviera, where her classic profile draws attention in every harbour from Antibes to Monaco. The combination of her sundeck jacuzzi, multiple alfresco dining areas, and the yacht’s landmark exterior makes the Riviera stage particularly well-suited to a first charter week.
From the Riviera, CHAKRA can move southeast into the Tyrrhenian Sea — Corsica, Sardinia, and the Amalfi Coast — before heading further east toward Croatia or Greece. Her range means the group is never constrained to a single country or sea, and her size means that every port of call becomes an event in itself. For groups chartering for special occasions, CHAKRA’s scale, the elevator, and the spa suite combination offer possibilities that most superyachts cannot match.
