About this boat

A Grand Banks 53, built in 2001 and refitted in 2021 — a trawler-hulled motor yacht that trades speed for a steady, comfortable ride, with a full flybridge and a wide aft deck. The ten-hour charter window (09:00 to 19:00) covers a sunset cruise, a Khai Island half day, or a full day as far as Phang Nga Bay or Koh Hong in Krabi. Crew of four, full board, wifi and Netflix on the saloon TV, and a run of water toys — two SUPs, two kayaks, a water slide and an inflatable sea pool — are all part of the day. Overnight charters from two to five nights are also available. Operated with one of our private-charter partners in Phuket.
