MOBIUS

Mobius — 38m Cantieri di Pisa, cruising Greece There is a particular kind of Mediterranean yacht that Italy built especially well in the 1990s: fast, planing, unmistakably Tyrrhenian in profile. Mobius comes from Cantieri di Pisa, one of the yards that defined that idiom, and her 38 metres still read as purposeful rather than nostalgic — helped considerably by a refit completed in 2023. Inside, the styling is signed by Agnes Comar, and it shows in the restraint: interiors conceived as living spaces rather than showpieces, with a sequence of saloons and lounges that invite people to spread out and stay put. It is a layout that suits a family or a group of friends taking the yacht for a week — several places to be, none of them ceremonial. Accommodation is arranged over five en-suite cabins for up to twelve guests: an owner's cabin, a VIP cabin, a further cabin with a double bed, and two cabins with twin beds. Detailed bed configuration on request. On deck, the sundeck jacuzzi is the natural gathering point at anchor — late afternoon, engines off, somewhere in the Cyclades. Gym equipment is available on board for those who keep to a routine at sea. Technically, she is built with a GRP hull and superstructure, and her planing form does what it was drawn to do. Twin Deutz engines give a comfortable 20-knot cruise, 22 knots at maximum, and a range of up to 1,382 nautical miles — useful margin in Greek waters, where the interesting anchorage is often another island away rather than around the next headland. A crew of experienced professionals handles the yacht and the service on board, discreetly and without fuss. The tender and water toys include a Seabob, ready whenever the swimming platform is the only place anyone wants to be.
