38m Sanlorenzo PREMURA Joins Royal Yacht International Charter Fleet

A newly marketed winter charter opportunity

Royal Yacht International has announced that the 37.95-metre Sanlorenzo PREMURA has joined its centrally managed charter fleet. The company is promoting the yacht for winter cruising in the Bahamas and highlights a combination of open-air relaxation, family-oriented amenities and a separate chase tender. This is an agency announcement and a statement of intended availability, not confirmation that particular dates or cruising areas remain open for booking.

For a family planning a charter, the essential first question is availability within the desired period. A quoted winter programme is not a guarantee of unrestricted movement across every island or anchorage. The captain, broker and local authorities will determine realistic routes based on weather, customs procedures, draught and port permissions. Guests should build the itinerary around secure reservations and safe sailing opportunities rather than a daily list of distant destinations.

A Sanlorenzo layout for several kinds of gathering

The broker describes PREMURA as a yacht designed for comfortable family cruising. A skylounge with wet bar and entertainment facilities provides an indoor retreat, while substantial deck seating encourages social time outdoors. The main-deck owner’s suite includes an office and walk-in wardrobe, together with a private balcony accessed on the starboard side. These features are valuable when guests are working remotely or staying aboard for several weeks rather than using the yacht only as a day boat.

Privacy depends on how crew service and family movement are arranged. A dedicated office can be especially useful for owners who expect calls during a holiday, but connectivity and quiet must be confirmed. The main-deck balcony adds attractive waterside space; its opening procedures and restrictions should be explained during the captain’s safety briefing. A charter experience is strongest when guests understand what different areas can be used for and how to access them safely.

Outdoor cinema and a spa pool at anchor

PREMURA’s announced entertainment features include an outdoor cinema, a sun deck with spa pool, sheltered lounges and a broad swimming platform. The combination offers alternatives to formal dining during evenings at anchor. For a mixed-age party, films on deck can be a shared activity while other guests prefer the interior lounge or a quiet part of the sun deck. The broker also notes an extensive selection of water toys, subject to the yacht’s inventory.

The ability to use these facilities depends on conditions. Wind, ambient light and the yacht’s movement affect outdoor screenings; the crew may postpone water access when currents or other boats create hazards. A charter client should ask which toys require qualified supervision and what age restrictions apply. Hot tubs and lifting platforms have their own operating rules. This is normal seamanship, not a limitation peculiar to PREMURA, and it should be part of transparent trip planning.

A Fjord 38 Open chase tender for Bahamas exploring

Royal Yacht International specifically advertises a 2022 Fjord 38 Open chase tender as part of PREMURA’s Bahamas charter presentation. A separate fast craft can expand the ways guests explore shorelines or move to destinations unsuitable for the principal yacht. The operator should confirm whether the tender is included in the base charter or billed separately, along with its crew, fuel, operating area and passenger limits.

In an archipelago, tender logistics can make an otherwise modest distance demanding. Sea conditions may change rapidly outside protected bays, and exposed landings may be unsuitable for particular guests. Captains should decide when the yacht, the chase tender or a shoreside transfer is the most sensible option. Anyone expecting daily excursions should discuss the likely route with the broker in advance and allow weather flexibility in the programme.

Planning a charter beyond the glossy specification

PREMURA’s public agency notice does not give a firm weekly rate, charter minimum, local taxes or the costs that may be charged through an advance provisioning allowance. These elements must be obtained through a current written offer. Guests should also establish whether any special events, onboard catering requests, yacht toys or additional crew expenses fall outside the quoted charter fee. A clear proposal makes the whole holiday more relaxed than discovering charges during departure.

Seasonal timing matters too. The Bahamas can be delightful in winter but still experiences unsettled weather and sea conditions that affect exposed passages. The person arranging the holiday should consider travel contingencies, private aviation schedules and the route from the intended arrival point. A few well-chosen anchorages are often more rewarding than a demanding itinerary. Crew knowledge and a realistic plan will shape the enjoyment of the yacht’s entertainment spaces.

Why the appointment is worth noting

The arrival of PREMURA in Royal Yacht International’s charter portfolio adds another substantial Sanlorenzo option to its advertised Bahamas programme. At nearly 38 metres, she sits firmly within Superyacht Guide’s fleet scope and has several features suited to a private group: dedicated owner accommodation, a versatile skylounge, outdoor cinema and a separate chase tender. The published update establishes her marketing position rather than independently proving a current charter booking.

Before committing, a prospective charterer should review the latest photographs, approved guest capacity, captain’s itinerary proposal, charter agreement and a complete list of inclusions. The value of any luxury charter lies in the quality of the crew, the fit of the vessel to the travelling party and the route that can be safely achieved. PREMURA’s new appointment is a timely invitation to make those enquiries for the approaching winter season.
