Charter a Sunseeker Portofino 48 in Cannes

One cockpit can carry the whole afternoon

That gives a smaller Cannes party a shared base through the passage and the time spent at a suitable stop. The hardtop covers the forward part; the aft area keeps the group close to the open view.

Decide how the meal should work before choosing by appearance: a simple spread and a formal seated lunch ask different things of the table and crew. Current cockpit photographs make that choice clearer than the yacht’s model number.

A sheltered alternative below

The lower saloon and galley sit alongside the route to the two guest cabins. They provide a place away from the open cockpit, but with a different outlook from a glazed main-level living room. That distinction can decide the choice for someone expecting to spend much of the day indoors.

The Portofino works especially well as a comparison point for guests drawn to an outdoor-led charter. If a large indoor table with a broad sea view is essential, compare a flybridge or an enclosed sports layout before settling on the model.

Two cabins for a smaller overnight party

The official archived reference describes two guest cabins and four permanent berths. A couple or a small family may find that scale more relevant than a larger yacht with several unused bedrooms. For a stay aboard, review the bed arrangement, access to bathrooms and space for the crew’s operation.

Day use is a separate question: changing facilities or a planned rest may be more important than allocating beds. The number of sleeping berths does not establish the yacht’s licensed charter allowance, so include your actual party composition in the enquiry.

An island day with time left for the yacht

From Cannes, a Lérins-focused plan can give the cockpit a proper role after the passage. Leave a useful interval for food, conversation or a permitted swim stop instead of treating the boat only as a transfer between shore venues. A restaurant visit adds boarding or tender arrangements at the other end; it should have its own time in the programme.

If the Esterel shoreline is the priority, discuss a route in that direction rather than trying to fit both sides of the gulf into a short outing. Conditions and the confirmed berth determine the practical sequence.

A model name, not an Italian destination

Portofino 48 identifies the Sunseeker model. Requesting it from Cannes does not imply an itinerary to the Italian town of Portofino. This guide uses the archived 15.74-by-4.30-metre reference, with the actual yacht’s build year, condition and current covers reviewed separately. State which feature appeals most: the shared cockpit, the hardtop or the two-cabin scale.
