AK ROYALTY for charter

Now here’s a yacht that really stands out, guaranteed to turn heads wherever she goes. AK ROYALTY is a sleek and spacious 41-metre (136ft) Palmer Johnson sports yacht with sparkling performance – and she’s just been coated all over, from bow to stern, in real 24- carat gold.

Fresh from a refit for the 2024 season with a spectacular brand new interior, AK ROYALTY lives up to her name. She has 305GT of internal volume – that’s a lot of living space for such a fast yacht – with a modern look throughout, from the décor and furnishings to the art on the walls.

She’s kitted out with all the toys she can carry, including a sport fishing chair and equipment on the main deck aft, a multi-storey water slide and scuba jets. There’s a pro wakeboarder as well as a pro spear fisherman among the crew, plus a dive instructor and a dive compressor on board, so when it comes to watersports you’re in the best possible hands. Her fleet of jet skis, SeaBobs and e-foil boards have the same sparkling, real gold livery and there’s a full beach camp setup with its own barbecue, sound system a big gazebo so you can stage the ultimate party on a remote, pristine beach.

Back on board, the party vibe continues with a DJ booth and brand new speakers on the sundeck, and state-of-the-art AV systems throughout the interior with iPad controls on the walls. But however much you rock the boat, out at sea or anchored in a bay, she has extra-powerful active stabilisers to smooth her motion so a comfortable ride is assured.

When it’s time to chill out, the sundeck has an open-air movie theatre setup – and it converts into a full outdoor gym with a massage table for your workouts and wellness sessions. The foredeck, meanwhile, has a huge expanse of sunpad cushions.

She’s designed to host 10 guests in five cabins, including a huge full-beam master suite, with large social spaces inside and out. With opulent details like full marble bathrooms and Fendi carpets, the levels of luxury are dialled up to eleven.

Whoever you decide to take with you, this is a yacht charter experience that will blow their minds.
