SOPHIE BLUE

SOPHIE BLUE is a 41-metre custom displacement motor yacht built by CBI Navi in 1998 and extensively refitted in 2024, with exterior and interior design by LUCA DINI Design and Architecture. Her aluminium hull is a practical choice for a vessel of this vintage and size, offering a favourable strength-to-weight ratio and strong structural longevity when properly maintained.

She is well matched to groups of up to 12 guests in six cabins who want a focused Adriatic experience with the confidence of recent major works. A crew of six provides professional service at a ratio suited to relaxed, self-directed itineraries rather than highly programmed hospitality. Her charter regions centre on Croatia, Montenegro, and the broader Mediterranean, making her a natural fit for guests drawn to the Dalmatian coast, island-hopping, and the calmer inland waters of the Adriatic. She is not well suited to guests seeking Caribbean or transatlantic range — though her 5,758 nautical mile range technically permits it — nor for parties requiring a large, active crew programme.

The LUCA DINI design signature brings a considered Italian aesthetic sensibility to both the exterior profile and interior spaces, and the 2024 refit represents a meaningful refresh that addresses systems, finishes, or both. At 13 knots cruise, SOPHIE BLUE covers distance efficiently without urgency. Amenities include a deck jacuzzi, sun deck with sunpads, gym equipment, at-anchor stabilisers, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi.

Her water sports selection includes sea-scooters, fishing and snorkelling equipment, water-skis, and towable inflatables. The programme is modest but functional, and reflects the typically more contemplative rhythm of Adriatic charter rather than a high-energy water sports agenda. SOPHIE BLUE suits guests who value design character, recent refit condition, and the intimacy of a smaller crew over extensive onboard infrastructure.

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