Palumba is a Sunseeker 86, and she wears the size beautifully. At twenty six metres, she has the volume and presence of a proper superyacht while keeping the easy, sociable character that makes Sunseeker so well liked. For extended charters around Antibes and Cannes, she offers space to spread out and settle in for days at a time.
Life aboard moves between generous, well connected spaces. A panoramic saloon draws the coastline inside, the expansive aft deck is made for long lunches and slow evenings, and a spacious flybridge opens to the sky for the best of the day. Down at the waterline, a beach club brings guests right to the sea, blurring the line between deck and water. Snorkelling gear is aboard for the clear stretches once you leave the harbour.
Four cabins host eight guests overnight in unhurried comfort, with room for twelve when the day calls for company. Two crew look after the details, and a cruising pace around thirty knots keeps the wider bay and its anchorages comfortably within reach. A wide beam gives her real stability and a calm, settled feel underfoot.
This is a yacht for a proper week on the water, one that rewards slowing down, moving between coves and coastline as the mood takes you.
A morning swim, a long lunch, an evening at anchor, and no particular reason to hurry back.
