P/CAT Explorion

The Yacht in Detail

Explorion proves that unforgettable adventures don’t have to come with an overwhelming footprint. At just 16 metres, this Aquila 54 power catamaran is compact and nimble, slipping into coves and harbours that larger yachts can only admire from a distance. But what truly sets her apart isn’t her size or even her sleek lines-it’s the people who bring her to life.

On Explorion, the crew is the experience.

Her captain isn’t just a skilled skipper; he’s a freediver who can take guests down to 8 metres on a single breath. Instead of simply pointing out the best swimming spots, he invites you into the underwater world with him-calmly, safely, and with the confidence of someone who knows the sea as well as he knows his own boat.

Her deckhand is far more than an extra pair of hands on deck. A professional photographer and a luxury yacht steward since 2013, he has an instinct for capturing the moments you’ll want to remember: the first time you jump from the stern into crystal water, the quiet sunrise coffee on the bow, the laughter over dinner as the sky turns pink. While he keeps the yacht running smoothly and guests cared for, he’s also quietly building a visual story of your week on board.

In the galley, the chef brings 22 years of culinary experience from Greece and Spain to a kitchen that punches far above its weight. His HACCP-certified cuisine means every dish is prepared to rigorous professional standards, but what you’ll notice most is the flavour: local ingredients, Mediterranean inspiration, and restaurant-level plates served just a few steps from the sea. Every meal feels like a small celebration-unhurried, thoughtful, and tailored to the mood of the day.

Together, this crew doesn’t simply operate a yacht; they curate an experience. No two days feel the same. One morning might begin with a quiet anchorage and a guided freedive, followed by a long, lazy lunch and an afternoon of swimming and paddleboarding. Another might be spent exploring a harbour town, returning to find sunset cocktails and a perfectly timed dinner waiting on the aft deck. Throughout it all, the deckhand is there with his camera, turning fleeting moments into lasting memories.

Explorion’s pricing€21,000-€28,000 per weekplaces her in a rare sweet spot where luxury becomes genuinely accessible. She’s ideal for budget-conscious groups who refuse to compromise on quality, working families who need reliable remote office access without sacrificing the magic of being at sea, and first-time charterers who want to experience a fully crewed power catamaran without leaping into the very top of the market.

This is not a yacht that overwhelms with sheer size or ostentation. Instead, Explorion offers something more intimate and, in many ways, more meaningful: a well-designed, comfortable platform; a crew whose talents extend far beyond their job titles; and a style of hospitality where every day feels different, every moment is noticed, and every meal is crafted with care.

Explorion is the story of how a smaller yacht, in the right hands, can deliver a bigger experience than you ever expected.
