About this yacht
VENTUM MARIS is a 65.5-meter Amels motor yacht that exemplifies Dutch shipyard craftsmanship combined with contemporary luxury design. Built in 2011 and comprehensively refitted in 2021, she represents one of the acclaimed Limited Edition Amels 212 series and arrives in peak condition for discerning charterers seeking a sophisticated Mediterranean experience.
Designed by Tim Heywood, VENTUM MARIS showcases exceptional spatial planning across her generous interior volume. The main deck features a bright, expansive salon with floor-to-ceiling windows and seamless flow to the formal dining area and aft deck—ideal for entertaining. A glass elevator connects all guest decks, while the skylounge provides commanding views and serves as a refined social hub with its sit-up bar and large windows. The full-beam master suite on the main deck delivers exceptional comfort and privacy, while six additional guest cabins—comprising five double and two twin configurations—ensure flexible accommodation for up to 12 guests with wheelchair-accessible circulation throughout.
The outdoor spaces are equally impressive. The sundeck functions as a complete resort, featuring a spa pool and counter-current swimming pool with swim-up wet bar, cinema projector, and an enclosed gym with steam room. A spacious beach club at water's edge provides direct access to watersports, with a comprehensive collection including three jetskis, a Seabob, diving and snorkeling equipment, and paddle boards. Three tenders—a Yachtwerft Meyer 8.3m open tender, custom X-Craft R7 7.9m beachlander, and Zodiac—support exploration of anchorages and shallow-water destinations. Stabilizers both at anchor and underway ensure comfort in varying sea conditions.
Operating from Genoa with a professional crew of 18, VENTUM MARIS charter typically covers the West and East Mediterranean, including the Italian and French Riviera, Croatia, Greece, and beyond. Her 16-knot maximum speed and 13.5-knot cruising speed make her well-suited for island-hopping itineraries. Charter rates begin at €545,000 per week, reflecting her exceptional condition and comprehensive onboard amenities. Whether hosting intimate family gatherings or sophisticated corporate retreats, VENTUM MARIS delivers the refined experience that defines the Amels reputation.

What is included in the charter rate for VENTUM MARIS?+
The weekly rate covers the yacht itself, her crew of 18, insurance, and use of the onboard equipment and water toys. Fuel, food and beverages, berthing and port fees, and shore excursions are paid from the APA, and VAT is charged on the base rate. APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) is typically around 40% of the base rate, held by the captain and accounted for in full — unspent balance is refunded at disembarkation. Greek charter VAT varies by yacht and by charter, broadly between 5.2% and 24%, depending on the yacht's type, size and certification, the duration of the charter, whether it passes through international waters, and whether the yacht carries permanent professional crew. We confirm the applicable rate for VENTUM MARIS before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter VENTUM MARIS?+
VENTUM MARIS charters from €545,000 per week in low season and €585,000 in high season — a difference of about 7% between the two. In Greece, July and August are peak: the most settled weather, the busiest anchorages, and the highest rates. Late May, June, and September offer warm water and quieter islands at the low-season rate, and are what we most often recommend. The meltemi wind is strongest in July and August across the Cyclades, which is worth weighing if sea state matters to your party.
