WHEELS Yacht Charter

Start with the headline bug in the simulation: WHEELS is a 75.5m Oceanco that turned half her lower deck into a dedicated dive and watersports centre and her main salon into a switch‑flip nightclub with lights and smoke machines. If your charter brief says “serious fun, controlled chaos, and don’t let the kids get bored,” this is the correct tab.

Seven decks of distraction. Up top you get an expansive sundeck with swimming pool/Jacuzzi, outdoor cinema and enough space for alfresco massages, workouts or just hiding from your emails. Climb one more level and there’s a 360‑degree observation lounge – essentially a glass‑walled control tower for people who like to see everything without moving much.

Inside, it’s hardware, not hype. A dedicated 8‑seat cinema with bespoke surround sound and a 4,000‑title library (Apple TV + Kaleidescape) handles proper movie nights while the main deck converts from salon to full disco when someone inevitably decides it’s time. A fully equipped, air‑conditioned gym plus massage room with an onboard therapist keeps the “we’ll be healthy this trip” promise marginally realistic.

The “live here” side of the story: Up to 12 guests sleep in 6 cabins, anchored by a split‑level master suite with mezzanine study and big natural light – more penthouse than cabin. Four generous guest suites sit on the main deck, with a sixth double originally spec’d for entourage. Translation: bring family, friends, staff, or all three; the layout can take it.

Toy department: overclocked. WHEELS runs a full RYA‑style watersports hub: multiple jet‑skis and stand‑up waverunners, Seabobs, flyboard, Hobie cat, kayaks, paddleboards, kitesurf setup, electric surfboard, waterslide, wake gear, scuba kit and a fleet of tenders including a guest‑friendly Cobra and Vikal sports tender. If someone can’t find something they want to do here, they probably wanted a spa hotel.

Why charter WHEELS instead of another 75‑metre: because this one is purpose‑built for high‑energy, multi‑generation groups. Seven decks, 12 guests, around 21 crew, a refit program that actually keeps her current, and a configuration where cinema, gym, spa, disco, pool and dive centre all run in parallel. In practice, that means everyone can do their own thing all day without stepping on each other – and still end up at the same dance floor or outdoor movie when the sun goes down.
