SEALION

SEALION is a 62-metre steel yacht built by Viareggio SuperYacht in 2009, refitted in 2023, and registered in the Cayman Islands. Her exterior was penned by Espen Oeino and her interior by Candy and Candy — a pairing that signals a vessel conceived with serious aesthetic intent. At 62 metres, she occupies a size category where guest volumes and crew complement begin to approach those of a small private ship, and her eighteen crew confirm that the service model is comprehensive rather than casual.

As a charter yacht, SEALION carries twelve guests across six cabins with eighteen crew — a crew-to-guest ratio of 1.5:1 that enables a level of attentiveness difficult to match on smaller vessels. She operates across both the Mediterranean and Caribbean, with access to the Amalfi Coast, French Riviera, Sardinia, Croatia, the Bahamas, Antigua, St Barts, and the Virgin Islands. She is best suited to experienced charter clients and established groups who expect formal yacht hospitality, and who value design provenance alongside operational capability. First-time charterers or those with modest budgets would find the service model and scale of this vessel a significant step up in complexity and expectation.

The Candy and Candy interior brings the London studio's signature approach — refined material selection, considered proportion — to a vessel that Espen Oeino's exterior gives a lean, contemporary profile. An elevator, gym, deck jacuzzi, at-anchor and underway stabilisers, satellite TV, and video-on-demand round out the onboard amenities. Satcom and full air conditioning ensure connectivity and comfort across both basins.

On the water, the toy inventory is extensive and well-considered for a vessel operating at this level: four Seabobs, jet-skis, an e-foil, wakeboards, water-skis, kayaks, paddleboards, towable inflatables, and fishing equipment. The combination of powered and human-powered options accommodates groups ranging from serious water sports enthusiasts to those content with a quieter afternoon on paddleboards.

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