Excellence is an 80-metre Abeking & Rasmussen from 2019, instantly recognisable for the sweeping curved-glass superstructure that Winch Design wrapped around her. She sleeps twelve across seven cabins and represents the yard at its most sculptural, a yacht as notable for architecture as amenity. Her striking exterior has made her one of the most photographed yachts of recent years, and that visibility translates into steady charter demand across the Mediterranean and Caribbean.

On board

Her seven en-suite cabins comprise a private owner's suite on the upper deck and six doubles on the main deck, alongside a cinema, spa, sauna and a well-equipped gym. The Winch interior is contemporary and light, echoing the glazed exterior with open, luminous spaces. A crew of twenty-two runs a refined service, and the galley is built for high-end dining. The overall effect is a yacht that feels modern and gallery-like without becoming cold or impersonal.

On deck & in the water

Outside, two jacuzzis, generous sun-deck lounging and a large aft deck give guests room to spread across levels, with a full watersports inventory for active days. The curved glass that defines her look also floods the interior with sea views, blurring the line between inside and out. She cruises comfortably between Mediterranean glamour and Bahamian anchorages, and her deck flow suits both grand entertaining and quiet, sun-drenched afternoons at anchor.

Why she books

Excellence books because she is a genuine design landmark that also functions as a superb charter platform. Guests who care about architecture and want a yacht that makes an entrance are drawn to her, while her build quality and Winch pedigree satisfy the practically minded. Her recognisable profile and strong show presence keep enquiries flowing, and her dual-season programme ensures availability in the grounds charterers most want.
