About Luxury Crewed Motor Yacht VAUBAN
VAUBAN is a Sanlorenzo SL120 Asymmetric launched in 2024, purpose-built for discerning charterers seeking substance over spectacle. Her five cabins accommodate eight guests with genuine comfort, whilst the yacht's intelligent design ensures the crew of seven can anticipate needs before they arise. This is not a showpiece; it is a vessel engineered for extended Mediterranean exploration, where every system runs with the quiet confidence of new construction and meticulous maintenance.
Captain Marlies Sanders leads a team assembled for expertise rather than resume padding. Her Acrew Best Captain award in 2024 reflects a decade of navigation across Mediterranean, Caribbean, and high-latitude waters. First Officer Lisa Maycock holds MCA Chief Officer 3000GT credentials and brings composed precision to deck operations. Chief Engineer Oleksandr Ianovsky keeps systems running at peak efficiency. On deck, Stacey Rowling manages tenders and water toys with athletic grace. Below, Chief Stewardess Corina Rotaru and Stewardess Yudi Gonzalez orchestrate a service rhythm that feels neither intrusive nor absent.
Chef Julian Rishmawi's Mediterranean fusion cuisine reflects where you are anchored and how you wish to feel. His menus balance precision with playfulness, moving from light midday fare to refined dinners as evening settles. Corina's five-language fluency and background in prestigious hospitality mean formal service and relaxed family meals alike feel effortless. This is a crew that reads intention and adjusts accordingly.

The Charter Experience
Your charter unfolds across the Adriatic, Aegean, and surrounding waters. From Kotor's mountain-ringed anchorage, VAUBAN carries you through luminous bays and striking coastal backdrops at your own pace. Summer 2026 opens access to the Amalfi Coast, Corsica, Sardinia, Sicily, and the Greek islands. Each day is shaped by your interests, whether diving into crystalline water, lingering on sun-warmed terraces, or following culinary recommendations from the crew. The 2024 Sanlorenzo hull means modern comfort, efficient systems, and a yacht that handles extended voyages without compromise.
Suggested Itinerary
A seven-day Montenegro itinerary opens in Kotor, where dramatic mountains meet calm waters. From there, VAUBAN reveals the Adriatic's rhythm through hidden bays and old stone towns, with days shaped by your rhythm. As seasons shift, the yacht transitions toward Amalfi, Corsica, Sardinia, Sicily, and Greece, allowing longer expeditions through some of Europe's most refined coastlines. The crew plots passages that balance ease of travel with discovery.
