Charter a Princess V55 in Bonifacio

A sports-yacht layout for a small private programme

Its model page describes three guest cabins with six berths, plus an optional aft cabin. The cockpit and salon can connect through the opening between them.

These are features to examine in the actual vessel’s photographs. Consider both the passage and lunch at a suitable stop. Ask where everyone will sit and how the cockpit will be arranged.

The V55’s six published berths describe sleeping space; the operator must confirm the permitted day-charter guest count separately.

Let the route fit the sea day

Bonifacio’s cliffs and harbour make a strong starting point, but a long wish list can turn a relaxed day into a timetable. Say whether you most want the coastal view, a swim in an appropriate place or a leisurely lunch aboard. A route towards the Lavezzi area must remain subject to the captain’s assessment and the applicable protected-water rules.

A sports-yacht label is not a promise of a fast or comfortable crossing in every condition. Do not use the brochure’s maximum speed to calculate when you will reach a bay. Ask how a change in wind or sea state would affect the route and what alternatives the operator would consider.

Look closely at access and shade

A low, sleek exterior can look simple to move around, but boarding depends on the berth, gangway and yacht configuration. Share any mobility concerns before the vessel is selected. For children, ask about the safety briefing, suitable equipment and how the crew manages movement between the cockpit, salon and forward area.

Shade is another vessel-specific detail. A photograph with an open roof or a sun pad tells little about where your guests will be comfortable through the afternoon. Request the current canopy arrangement and consider the number of people who want to stay out of direct sun.

Those answers help determine whether this style suits the whole group.

Request the V55 or explain the closest useful alternative

If you like the Princess V55, include it in the enquiry along with the date, guest count and preferred duration from Bonifacio. Mention whether the priorities are open-air seating, lunch or overnight accommodation. We use the model as a reference; no specific yacht or departure slot is confirmed by this page.

Ask the proposal to identify the actual vessel, operator, boarding place and included services. Recent photographs should show the layout you are being offered. If a different sports yacht is suggested, compare shade, seated comfort and the practical programme first.

A close match in length is less useful than a close match to the way you want to spend the day.
