GHOST III

GHOST III is a 49-metre custom aluminium motor yacht built by Acico in 2012 and extensively refitted in 2022, registered under the Maltese flag. Her exterior lines are by Olivier F. van Meer, with interior styling by Maja von Dewitz — a European design pairing that has produced a vessel of considerable character within a notable hull volume of 497 gross tonnes. Aluminium construction keeps weight controlled at this length while contributing to the structural integrity expected of an offshore-capable vessel.

Accommodating 12 guests across six cabins with a crew of eleven, GHOST III offers one of the more generous crew-to-guest ratios in her class, appropriate for a vessel of her displacement and range. She operates primarily across the western Mediterranean, with a footprint covering the French Riviera, Corsica, Sardinia, Amalfi, Monaco, and Italy broadly. Her headline specification is an extraordinary range of 8,600 nautical miles — a figure that places her firmly in the category of truly offshore-capable charter yachts. Guests seeking a short-range, fast planing yacht will find her profile does not align with that expectation, but those planning extended voyages will find her capabilities well-matched.

The 2022 refit ensures her systems and interior finish reflect contemporary standards. Stabilisers both underway and at anchor are a meaningful feature for a vessel of this displacement, and the combination of a deck jacuzzi and an interior jacuzzi alongside a gym with equipment confirms GHOST III as a vessel oriented toward extended, self-sufficient charter use rather than port-based island-hopping.

The swimming platform, sun deck, sunpads, and exterior bar provide strong deck amenity for 12 guests. The water toy inventory is notably comprehensive: two three-seat Sea-Doo jet-skis, two F5S Seabobs, a Lift eFoil foilboard, paddleboards, surfboards, wakeboards, water-skis, a four-person banana, a floating pool, towable toys, additional inflatables, and snorkelling equipment. The floating pool in particular is an unusual inclusion that adds an accessible water-play option at anchor without requiring active participation. Combined with a crew of eleven and genuine offshore range, GHOST III presents as a capable, well-resourced yacht charter option in the western Mediterranean.

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