Bluegame 74contemporary Italian yacht charter in Mallorca

Bluegame is an Italian yard based at Ameglia, and the 74, which the builder sells as the BG74, belongs to its BG range. Her styling is by Zuccon International Project, and her performance hull is drawn for stability and efficiency. The builder presents her as a fusion of open and flybridge yacht, and the profile shows it: smart, clean lines with little ornament and a panoramic hardtop that shades the upper deck. The helm sits centrally, with protected walkways along both sides, and her 5.6 metre beam keeps the decks wide for a group of up to 12.

Everything about the layout draws you towards the water. At the stern, an expansive teak beach area with sun loungers opens directly onto the sea, with twin staircases rising to the deck above, so a swim is only ever a few steps from a lounger. On the main deck, an aft lounge and central dining and relaxation areas share a cockpit the builder designed to open on every side, and a sunpad at the bow adds a further place to lie in the sun. The toy list is deliberately simple, a paddle board and snorkelling gear, because aboard this yacht the sea itself is the main event: a long swim off the beach area, a slow paddle along the rocks, a look at the seabed through a mask.

With a cruising speed of 25 knots and a top speed of 28 knots, she moves between anchorages without fuss, which suits a day that strings together swim stops along the south-east calas, heads for the clear water around Cabrera or stays within Palma Bay for an easy afternoon. Below deck, three cabins and two heads give guests a cool, private place to change or rest, and a crew of two handles the yacht and the service. Her rhythm suits a day or a sunset sail, and longer charters can be discussed. She is chartered from Mallorca, and the berth is confirmed with you once your dates are set.
