About this yacht
SPIRIT L is a beautifully preserved 26-metre sailing yacht with a remarkable pedigree as an ex-royal vessel originally built for the Grimaldi family of Monaco. Constructed by CCYD in 1984 for Prince Rainier III and Princess Grace, she combines classical elegance with the practical comfort expected by discerning charterers. A comprehensive 2021 refit has ensured that SPIRIT L maintains her distinctive character while meeting contemporary standards for safety, navigation, and guest amenities.
The yacht accommodates up to eight guests across four well-appointed cabins—one spacious double suite, three twin cabins, and convertible sleeping arrangements—all attended by a professional crew of four. Her 6.30-metre beam provides generous interior volume for a vessel of this size, with classic ambient interiors that reflect her noble heritage. Below deck, the master suite occupies the stern, with the galley positioned to support seamless service throughout cruising days. The main salon serves as the social heart of the yacht, offering comfortable seating and dining facilities.
Above deck, SPIRIT L excels in her layout for relaxation and entertainment. The aft section features a substantial dining table shaded by a canvas bimini, ideal for alfresco meals with unobstructed Mediterranean views. The expansive foredeck provides ample space for sunbathing, stretching, or simply observing marine life around your anchorage. These outdoor areas represent a defining feature of SPIRIT L's charter appeal—guests enjoy seamless transitions between social engagement and private relaxation.
Operationally, the yacht is powered by twin Caterpillar C3208 V8 diesel engines, offering reliable passage-making capability. Her sailing rig delivers the authentic experience charter guests increasingly seek, whether they desire exhilarating days under canvas or prefer to relax while the professional crew manages the technical demands. The yacht is equipped with air conditioning throughout, Wi-Fi connectivity, and a curated selection of water toys to enhance your Mediterranean experience.
Based in Athens, SPIRIT L operates throughout the Greek islands and broader eastern Mediterranean, positioning her perfectly for explorations of the Aegean, the Ionian, and southern European coasts.
