About Luxury Crewed Motor Yacht VELOCITY
VELOCITY embodies the sophisticated engineering of the Mangusta GranSport 54, blending Italian design precision with the practical comfort required for extended Mediterranean exploration. Built in 2020, she accommodates 12 guests across 5 elegantly appointed cabins, each designed with the refined restraint expected of contemporary European yachting. Every passage and anchorage feels purposeful rather than rushed, a hallmark of vessels built for both performance and leisure.
The charter experience aboard VELOCITY centres on a seasoned, nine-person crew led by Captain William Airth, whose two decades spanning Royal Navy and global yachting experience establish a tone of quiet competence and attentiveness. The culinary programme, orchestrated by the Head Chef, adapts daily to the pace and preferences of your journey, moving seamlessly from light seaside fare to formally presented dinners as the coastline shifts beneath you. Service from Chief Steward and Stewardesses Britney Gaskell and Cate Linsley ensures that comfort and polish feel effortless, never intrusive.
VELOCITY's appeal spans the entire Western Mediterranean. Whether you depart from Sardinia, the Amalfi Coast, or Palma, the Balearic Islands, French Riviera, and Italian coastlines all lie within practical range. This geographical flexibility, paired with crew expertise in local anchorages and cultural rhythms, makes her particularly suited to guests seeking variety without compromise in service or surroundings. From spirited afternoons off Ibiza to serene evenings anchored along Mallorca's quieter coves, the itinerary is entirely yours to shape.

The Charter Experience
A Sardinian or Italian-based charter aboard VELOCITY provides immediate access to some of the Mediterranean's most refined anchorages. The Amalfi Coast's terraced villages and sheltered bays reward slower exploration, whilst Sardinia's crystalline waters and granite coves offer both seclusion and social opportunity. The yacht's contemporary comfort and consistent performance mean your crew can pivot seamlessly between active days of diving and water sports and restful evenings at anchor, with meals that reflect both the season and your preferences. Throughout, Captain Airth's navigation expertise and the deck team's proficiency with tender operations and beach setups allow you to experience each destination on its own terms.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical seven-day itinerary might commence in Palma, moving through the Balearic Islands toward the vibrant scene off Ibiza before returning along Mallorca's quieter northern coast. Alternatively, base yourself in Sardinia to explore the Maddalena archipelago and Costa Smeralda, or depart the Amalfi Coast to navigate Italy's most atmospheric ports and coastal villages. Your crew collaborates throughout to ensure each day reflects your interests, whether that means active water sports, leisurely exploration, or a balance of both.
