CAPT D

M/Y CAPT D — France & Monaco CAPT D takes a straightforward approach to chartering the French coast: room to spread out, a crew that knows the coastline, and enough flexibility to shape the day around whatever mood you arrive in — a quiet anchorage before lunch, or a lively afternoon with friends and family aboard. The foredeck is where most of the day tends to happen. It's a genuinely generous sunbathing area, with space for the whole party at once rather than the usual rotation of who gets the good spot. Inside, the layout is classic and easy to live with: a saloon, a dining area and a galley, all sensibly arranged for extended cruising rather than day trips alone. Accommodation is laid out across three cabins for six guests, each with its own private bathroom — a detail that matters more than it sounds on a yacht of this size, particularly when guests are travelling as separate couples or with family. Two cabins are fitted with a double bed; the third has twin beds, useful for children, friends sharing, or simply a bit more flexibility in how you allocate the week. A refit was completed in 2010. Fuel consumption runs at 250 litres per hour underway — a figure worth knowing when you're planning an itinerary and weighing longer coastal passages against days spent at anchor. The crew is experienced in these waters and used to reading what a charter party actually wants, which is usually the difference between a good week and a memorable one. Between Monaco and the French Riviera, CAPT D is an unfussy, well-proportioned platform for exactly that.
