MONTE CARLO

MONTE CARLO is a 40.2-metre aluminium displacement motor yacht built by Amels in 1988, with exterior design by Diana Yacht Design and an interior attributed to Ralph Lauren, refitted in 2016. Amels is a Dutch yard with a long record of disciplined engineering, and the Ralph Lauren interior association suggests an approach to cabin design oriented around considered material selection rather than decorative excess — an alignment with the understated character that characterises well-maintained vessels of this era.

She accommodates 10 guests across 5 cabins with a crew of 7, and operates as a charter yacht across Greece, Turkey, and Mykonos — an Aegean-focused itinerary that suits her comfortable cruising capability at 12 knots with a maximum of 17 knots. Her 3,400-nautical-mile range is adequate for extended Mediterranean passages. MONTE CARLO is well positioned for guests seeking a quality, established vessel in the Greek islands; she is less appropriate for those requiring newer builds or Caribbean-range capability.

The aluminium hull offers a practical weight advantage over steel, and Amels' construction standards translate into a vessel that has demonstrated durability over nearly four decades of service. Both at-anchor and underway stabilisers are fitted, supporting comfort across conditions. The deck jacuzzi and gym reflect a standard of onboard amenity appropriate to the charter market she serves.

Water sports provision is extensive: two SeaDoo jet-skis, two Seabob units, a dive compressor with full scuba equipment for 8 divers, water-skis, wakeboard, paddleboards, snorkelling gear, banana boat, ringo, and fishing equipment. A tender is on file. Wi-Fi is fitted. The guest-to-crew ratio and the range of active water sports make MONTE CARLO a practical choice for groups with an interest in diving and water activities.

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