ASTERI

ASTERI is a 40-metre aluminium motor yacht constructed by Sanlorenzo in 2011 and refitted in 2020, registered in the Cayman Islands. Sanlorenzo's aluminium construction programme is associated with performance-oriented hulls, and ASTERI demonstrates that character plainly: her maximum speed of 26 knots places her well above most displacement charter yachts of comparable length. The 2020 refit refreshes her presentation without altering the fundamental high-speed proposition that defines her appeal.

She accommodates 12 guests across five cabins, served by a crew of six. The crew-to-guest ratio is leaner than typical at this size, which reflects the vessel's performance character rather than a service shortcoming. Her range of 700 nautical miles confirms her as a coastal performance yacht for the Western Mediterranean — Ibiza, the French Riviera, Corsica, the Balearics, Portofino, and St Tropez are all natural territory. This is a charter yacht for guests who value rapid passages and want to cover meaningful ground between ports; those seeking extended offshore cruising should look elsewhere.

The refit brought ASTERI's interior and deck areas to a contemporary standard. A deck jacuzzi provides a centrepiece for relaxation at anchor, complemented by at-anchor stabilisation for comfort in exposed anchorages. A gym adds a practical wellness dimension that is not universally available on 40-metre yachts. Air conditioning and Wi-Fi are standard throughout.

The water sports selection pairs breadth with specificity: a Yamaha Super Jet stand-up jet-ski and a Yamaha FX SHO waverunner together with two Cayago F7 Seabobs, snorkelling sets for all 11-12 guests, two sets of scuba equipment, a Jobe water-ski, and towable inflatables deliver a solid active programme. A single tender supports shore runs and water access logistics.

The provisional rating is based on available public data, reflecting acceptable standards across safety documentation, maintenance records, and operational protocols.
