The Antibes Yacht Show 2014 – Riva Steals the Show

The Antibes Yacht Show kicked off yesterday on the very sunny French Riviera. The show this year sees the attendance of some our favourites – from DEVOCEAN to AVELLA and more! The highlight of our show was finally getting to see the very exciting and highly reputable Riva Domino 86 RHINO. We saw RHINO around the French Riviera last summer, ever-popular on charter she regularly frequented the hottest spots of Cannes, Monaco and St Tropez.

Spanish sundowners last night provided excellent refreshment on a beautiful evening in Port Vauban, Antibes. The boat itself feels large beyond its size with huge outside space at the rear, flybridge and dining on the bow. She’s highly specced with beautiful tan leather upholsteries outside, sumptuous tweed soft furnishings in the cabins and a full-beam master suite which offers space otherwise never found on yachts of this size.

RHINO is the most stylish yacht around. Her calendar for this season is starting to fill so we highly recommend ceasing this opportunity to charter this one-of-a-kind yacht! Contact our team in Cannes today for more information.

REHAB – A Gem in the French Riviera

The French Riviera is a part of the world which simply oozes style and class. Nothing encapsulates this quite in the same way that Sunseeker does. REHAB, a Predator 68 is absolutely no exception.

The yacht herself is a classic example in unrestricted luxury. Supremely fast, with a top speed of 40 knots, she will get you to the hottest spots in no time. Once you arrive, the outdoor spaces on REHAB are spectacular. The open-plan, teak-lined aft deck is vast. Lined with fine leather sofas, there is ample space for groups of up to 12 people to dine al fresco or sit back with cocktails.

For the more dedicated sun gods and goddesses out there, the top deck is the place for you. Attract envious glances whilst lying back in the hugely comfortable lounge area; the perfect place to enjoy the stunning provençal views.

When the mood for something more adventurous takes you, REHAB is fully stocked. The tender, a superfast Williams 325, is great for waterskiing and wakeboarding. Fun for all the family is taken care of courtesy of 2 donuts and plenty of snorkelling equipment.
