Onboard AFRICA I in Nafplion. One of our team’s absolute favorite yachts in Greece.
Full aluminium construction and water dynamic hull shape - light, fast and fuel-efficient! (16 knots = 450 liters per hour. Max speed is 22 knots.)
Just fresh out of a refit - she is in immaculate condition.
Wheelchair-friendly, the crew has prior experience assisting guests with wheelchairs. There is also a lift on the stairs to the master cabin.
Why charter Africa? Fast for her size, amazing energy crew who have been several years onboard, modern style, and fantastic condition!
She is almost fully booked, + she has 4 weeks of repeats this year. A very proven yacht!
The main advantages of AFRICA I are the 6 cabins, not the usual 5, and the experienced crew of 12, not the usual 8-9.
Top execution- the best in class. Everything new and definitely not underinvested.
Lots of space for 154ft. Happy, energetic crew.
Theme nights- Greek nights with breaking plates, pirate night, live music.
3 equal VIP cabins, 1 master, and 2 twins.
Silk carpets and rare makauba marble, Armani textures – a very comfortable and minimalist interior.
The master cabin is wheelchair friendly.
AFRICA I Yacht Description
Start with the obvious headline: AFRICA I is the 47m Benetti where the sundeck jacuzzi, giant inflatable slide and chase-boat-toting beach club are the main operating system, and everything else is just supporting software. If your charter brief includes “serious toy box” and “don’t let the kids get bored”, this is the one to stop on.
Hardware that matters: Up to 12 guests sleep in 6 cabins, including a full‑beam master on the main deck with its own private foredeck and even a kids’ twin/playroom annex if you’re running a family mission. The main deck is wheelchair‑friendly throughout, stabilizers keep the yacht level at anchor, and the crew of around 10–12 is unapologetically charter‑oriented with a heavy repeat-client record (yes, including Cristiano Ronaldo).
Top-deck operating mode: Big sun deck, proper jacuzzi, gym gear, shaded and open lounging, and multiple alfresco dining zones stacked from aft deck to upper deck. Translation: one group can be having a long lunch while another is in full sun-worship or movie‑night mode upstairs, using the upper lounge cinema projector and serious multi-room sound system.
Toy stack, not toy token: AFRICA I runs like a floating watersports store: waverunners, Seabobs, electric surfboards and foils, paddleboards, wakeboards, adult skis, inflatables, a large waterslide, and a serious chase tender plus inflatable dock/swim platform built for actual daily use, not just brochure photos. She’s an RYA watersports centre, so the fun is structured, safe and non-chaotic.
Why charter AFRICA I instead of the next 47m: because this one combines Benetti build, repeated refits (most recently mid‑2020s), full-beam master-with-private-deck, wheelchair‑friendly layout, cinema‑grade AV, a deck jacuzzi and a genuinely over‑equipped water toy arsenal, all run by a crew whose full-time job is making high-expectation, family-and-friends charters work smoothly.
