Appointed Central Charter Agent for SHORE THING

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.

The Superyacht People Named Official Ocean Conservation Partner of SeaKeepers South Pacific Australia, July 17, 2026 – Every unforgettable yacht experience begins with the ocean. Increasingly, it also carries a responsibility to protect it. Recognising that the future of luxury yachting is intrinsically linked to the health of the world’s marine ecosystems, The Superyacht People has announced a new partnership with The International SeaKeepers Society’s South Pacific Chapter. The collaboration will make meaningful ocean conservation opportunities available to charter clients as part of their journey, allowing guests to experience some of the world’s most extraordinary cruising grounds while directly contributing to their preservation. This initiative reflects a growing shift within the superyacht industry where luxury travel and environmental stewardship are no longer viewed in isolation. Through the partnership, SeaKeepers will become The Superyacht People’s official Ocean Conservation Partner so charter guests can play a real role in protecting the waters they’re cruising on.  Depending on their charter and destination, guests may opt to make a conservation contribution as part of their charter, participate in SeaKeepers’ renowned citizen science programmes, or even take part in scientist-led expeditions to deepen their knowledge and connection to their destination. Regardless of the contribution, this initiative will directly support SeaKeepers South Pacific’s conservation programmes, with funding allocated across marine science, education, citizen science and community engagement initiatives.  “Every charter is built around the ocean,” shares Cameron Bray, Founder of The Superyacht People. “It gives our clients incredible experiences, unforgettable memories and access to some of the most pristine places on Earth. We believe it’s only natural that we also create opportunities to make it even easier to give back. What’s exciting about this partnership is that conservation doesn’t become another obligation for clients, but an opportunity. Every action a charter guest takes, creates a lasting impact they can be proud they were a part of.” The collaboration follows a growing momentum across the superyacht industry towards more purposeful travel experiences. Clients are seeking out unique and authentic experiences with the destinations they visit; there is a growing need to combine exploration with leaving these precious resources in a better condition than they found them. SeaKeepers has long been at the forefront of this movement, connecting yachts with marine scientists, education and conservation projects around the world. By seamlessly integrating these opportunities directly to their yacht charter, The Superyacht People aims to make responsible travel feel seamless. “We’re proud to partner with The Superyacht People to connect the luxury yacht charter industry with meaningful ocean conservation,” comments Melissa White, Director of South Pacific for the International SeaKeepers Society. “This collaboration creates new opportunities for charter clients to support SeaKeepers’ mission and help advance marine research, citizen science, education, and conservation initiatives throughout the South Pacific.” For The Superyacht People, this is another step towards redefining what exceptional charter experiences can look like. It’s not just about delivering unforgettable moments on the water, but helping ensure those same destinations can be enjoyed for generations to come.
