About Luxury Crewed Motor Yacht Lady Trudy
Lady Trudy is a 2011 CRN motor yacht purpose-built for discerning charterers seeking refined comfort and attentive service along the Côte d'Azur. Her five cabins, configured with a king-bedded master suite, three queen-bedded VIP cabins, and a twin cabin with single berths, accommodate up to 11 guests in measured luxury. The interior balances Hamptons-inspired design with contemporary furnishings, anchored by a principal salon with gallery-quality artwork and adjoining dining room suited to fine dining.
Outdoor spaces reward time on deck. The sundeck provides expansive lounging with upholstered seating, a Jacuzzi, bar service, and an open-air cinema screen. The upper deck's alfresco dining area overlooks the coastline, whilst main and aft deck seating areas offer sheltered respite. An upper salon with LED screens and intimate dining table provides alternative gathering space when weather turns.
Captain Jan Hans Vantuch and Chief Stewardess Alina Bargan lead a crew of nine, whilst Chef Salvatore De Luca oversees galley operations rooted in local Provençal ingredients and technique. The yacht carries two tenders (a Windy SR44 Blackhawk and Nauma Tec inboard), three petrol-powered watercraft (two Seabobs and a Yamaha jet-ski), plus a full complement of water sports equipment from wakeboards to fishing tackle. Rendezvous diving is available upon arrangement.

The Charter Experience
A week aboard Lady Trudy typically commences in Cannes before routing eastward to Monaco's Port Hercule, where the yacht's beam and tender fleet permit exploration of the Principality's smaller anchorages and beach clubs. The passage west to Saint-Tropez takes in the Îles d'Hyères (Porquerolles, Port-Cros) with their transparent waters and protected moorings ideal for long-range water sports. The crew coordinates reservations at Michelin-listed restaurants ashore, arranges formal beach club access, and curates daily itineraries around your interests, whether that involves pursuing specific diving sites, securing prime positioning at seasonal events, or simply anchoring off a private cove for an extended swim.
Suggested Itinerary
Depart Cannes for the Lérins Islands, where shallow-water moorings suit swimming and tender-based exploration. Transit to Monaco for evening mooring in Port Hercule or Fontvieille, with onshore dining options ranging from Belle Époque institutions to contemporary Michelin establishments. Continue westward to Saint-Tropez, anchoring in the Baie de Pampelonne for daytime water sports, then secure berth at the town quay for evening aperitifs. Conclude with the Îles d'Hyères circuit (Porquerolles and Port-Cros), where pine-forested anchorages, transparent waters, and marked diving sites reward slower-paced exploration and mid-day swims from the yacht's transom.
