SONGBIRD Yacht Charter

Headline anomaly: SONGBIRD is an 89ft German‑built Dubbel & Jesse performance cruiser that was stripped back and refit in 2017, then wired for long‑range reality with an approximate 3,000nm range. Translation: you’re not limited to bay‑hopping unless you want to be.

Real space where it matters. The cockpit is oversized for this size bracket, with a deep, protected U‑shaped seating area and dining table that actually fits eight humans, not eight stick figures. Skylights and big hull windows push natural light into the saloon, so you get that “bright loft” feel instead of “basement at sea.”

Inside the machine: up to 8 guests sleep in 3 deluxe cabins, looked after by a 3‑crew team – a strong crew‑to‑guest ratio for an 89‑footer. The interior is clean, modern and functional: pale woods, cream textiles, proper climate control, Wi‑Fi, 42” TV and a layout that separates social space from sleeping space so people can stay up late without nuking everyone’s sleep.

Why pick SONGBIRD instead of another 80‑something footer: she’s a genuine sailboat that still does the “yacht” thing properly. Big sail plan for real passages, comfortable long‑range setup, and a toy list that covers the basics you’ll actually use – tender with 50hp, water skis, wakeboard, kneeboard, SUPs, inflatable toys, snorkel and light fishing gear, plus an underwater scooter for the “I’m going to check the anchor” excuse. If you want a sailing yacht that can go further, feel lighter and still run a serious family or friends charter, SONGBIRD ticks that box without drama.
