In this series of articles, we take a look at the best charter deals currently on offer, as judged by our very own editors. What, Why, Where and Who forms the basis of the articles. This week we look at the 42 metre sailing yacht Yamakay, available for charter throughout both the Eastern and Western Mediterranean.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/160860/image/large-520f550a7df5b8d853bc10a6cc8b8e8a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/160860">What is on offer?Built by the French shipyard CMN Yacht Division in 1993, the classic timeless exterior design of the 42 metres schooner Yamakay comes from the drawing boards of naval architect Marc Lombard. Her sophisticated and comfortable interior design comes from Couëdel Hugon Design, who has created a warm and welcome atmosphere throughout.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/160861/image/large-682fe12a09e04dfd7fec77e4c362b1a8.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/160861">On board she accommodates up to eight guests over four cabins, consisting of a master suite and three twin cabins. A wide range of tenders and water toys are available on board, including wake boards, water skis, paddle board and fishing gear, guaranteed to provide fun and entertainment for every taste. Powered by one Volvo TAM74 engine, she has a cruising speed of 9 knots.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/160862/image/large-f928e27c67b0f67739f5c28958f74d3d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/160862"> <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/160863/image/large-f349040ce2cfcb9080928898e42b4010.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/160863"> <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/160864/image/large-56f20b5c9ee0cef07a38fbacdbc2675a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/160864">Why do we think this is such a good deal?Yamakay underwent her last significant refit just two years ago, leaving her in fantastic condition.
