SHORE THING central charter agent - the Superyacht People

Appointed Central Charter Agent for SHORE THING

The Superyacht People Appointed Central Charter Agent for Adventure-Led Motor Yacht SHORE THING Australia, August 26, 2026 – The Superyacht People has been appointed Central Charter Agent for 34.5m SHORE THING, a recently refitted Australian-built superyacht redefining luxury charters by combining premium onboard hospitality with adventure, exploration and serious game fishing, including the option to pair with the dedicated SHORE THING 58 sportfisher. As today’s luxury travellers are increasingly seeking a more immersive, experience-led holiday over traditional resort escapes, SHORE THING has been designed to deliver far more than days simply spent at anchor in the sun. If game fishing is the main draw, by opting to pair with 17.7m SHORE THING 58 sportfisher, you can create a rare mothership-and-sportfisher charter experience. For mixed groups, this combination is particularly compelling as keen anglers can head offshore for dedicated game fishing days, while other guests can enjoy SHORE THING’s beach club, water toys, and luxury amenities, allowing everyone to experience the charter their own way. Fresh off an extensive refit in 2025, SHORE THING offers accommodation for up to eight guests across four ensuite cabins, while three spacious entertaining decks, a forward jacuzzi, multiple alfresco dining areas and relaxed contemporary interiors provide the perfect place to relax and unwind after each adventurous day at sea. What truly sets SHORE THING apart is her ability to deliver experiences that extend well beyond the yacht itself. A 9m Gemini Waverider tender, Ocean Beach Club, floating cabana, paddleboards, snorkelling equipment and a wide range of fishing gear transform each charter into an active exploration of Australia’s vast coastline. Whether casting a line offshore, snorkelling amongst the colourful reefs, discovering secluded beaches by tender, or simply spending quality time together on the water, every charter is tailored around the way guests want to experience Australia. On the appointment, Cameron Bray, Founder of The Superyacht People shared, “Luxury today is about creating memories rather than simply providing amenities. SHORE THING offers everything guests expect from a premium superyacht, but what makes her truly special is what happens off the yacht. Whether it’s heading offshore for a serious day of game fishing aboard SHORE THING 58, snorkelling pristine reefs all by yourselves, exploring remote beaches or simply spending uninterrupted time together as a family, these are the experiences people remember long after the charter ends.” Supported by an experienced crew with extensive local knowledge, every itinerary is customisable based around guests’ interests, combining exceptional service with access to destinations and experiences that few visitors will ever discover. Available throughout Australia’s east coast, SHORE THING offers fully customisable itineraries across some of the country’s most sought after cruising grounds.

ELENI Joins Our Sales Fleet

The Superyacht People Announces Central Agency Appointment of 49.9m ELENI. Australia, July 29, 2026 -The 49.9m motor yacht ELENI has joined The Superyacht People’s sales portfolio, with the company appointed as Central Agent for her sale. Already established as one of the Mediterranean’s standout charter yachts, ELENI enters the sales market following years of consistent charter success and a reputation for delivering exceptional owner and guest experiences. The announcement marks a significant milestone for The Superyacht People as the company expands beyond charter and into yacht sales, offering clients a fully integrated and bespoke brokerage service. Built in Italy by CBI Navi in 2005 with designs by Luca Dini, ELENI combines timeless styling with substantial internal volume, long-range cruising capabilities, and proven charter history. Her six beautifully appointed staterooms offer accommodation for up to 12 guests, with expansive interior living spaces and generous exterior decks designed for both private and family cruising. ELENI has benefitted from approximately €4 million invested in technical and cosmetic upgrades between 2017 and 2021, ensuring she remains exceptionally well-presented while retaining full commercial registration.  “ELENI represents exactly the calibre of yacht we want to bring to market,” shares Cameron Bray, Founder and Chief Superyacht Guy at The Superyacht People. “She has earned a reputation as one of the Mediterranean’s most successful charter yachts, combining exceptional guest appeal with proven commercial performance. But what I love most about her story is that both her current and previous owners chose ELENI as their very first yacht after years of chartering. That speaks volumes to the confidence she inspires. Beautifully maintained and capable of delivering exceptional services for both owners and charter guests, ELENI sets the benchmark for the calibre of yachts we intend to represent.” Unlike many yachts entering the brokerage market, ELENI offers buyers the rare opportunity to acquire an established charter yacht with a demonstrated operational history, making her equally attractive to private owners seeking a highly capable world cruising yacht, or investors looking for continued charter potential. “Having captained ELENI for the past decade, I’ve had the privilege of serving two owners and watching this yacht evolve through continuous investment and meticulous care,” comments Nick Smith, Captain of ELENI. “She’s an incredibly well-built yacht that has proven herself time and again, whether on private family cruises or during a highly successful charter career. It’s been rewarding to see the pride every owner, guest and crew member has taken in her, and I’m confident her next owner will inherit a yacht that is truly ready for her next chapter.” The appointment also reflects The Superyacht People’s broader strategy of providing owners with a complete lifecycle service, from charter management and destination expertise through to yacht sales and acquisition advice. Offered for sale at EUR 14,250,000, ELENI is currently cruising the Western Mediterranean and is available for inspection by appointment.  Specifications Builder: CBI Navi Year: 2005 | Refit: 2017 | 2021 Length: 49.9m (163’8″) Designer: Luca Dini Accommodation: 12 guests in six staterooms Construction: Steel / Aluminium Flag: Cayman Islands Price: EUR 14,250,000 About The Superyacht People The Superyacht People is a boutique global superyacht brokerage specialising in luxury yacht charter, yacht sales and bespoke owner services.
