KRONOS

Kronos — 85ft Duretti, based in Dubai An 85-footer built by Duretti, Kronos was conceived around a simple idea: give guests room to spread out, and give them something worth looking at. In Dubai, that combination goes a long way. Two generous decks form the heart of life aboard, both laid out with open-air seating that turns the skyline into the backdrop of the day rather than a passing detail. Inside, the main lounge is comfortable in the proper sense — deep furnishings, a dining area set apart for meals taken at a slower pace, and wide windows that keep the interior bright and connected to the water throughout the cruise. Below, four cabins accommodate up to eight guests overnight, each one arranged as a quiet, private space away from the sociable areas above. Detailed bed configuration is available on request. The galley is fully equipped and practical rather than decorative: electric grill, microwave and refrigerator, enough to handle everything from a casual lunch to a proper dinner service without improvisation. A capable sound system covers the rest, whether the brief is background music over drinks or something considerably louder for a celebration. Washrooms are well kept and fresh towels are provided as standard. Kronos is run by a professional captain supported by two experienced crew — a team sized to keep the day moving smoothly without ever crowding the guest areas.
