Loon, launched as Icon, is a 68-metre Icon Yachts build from 2010, refitted in 2020 and now one of the best-known charter yachts in the Caribbean and Bahamas. She sleeps twelve across seven cabins and has built her reputation less on headline gimmicks than on an exceptional crew and a genuinely warm, fun onboard culture. She is a yacht that repeat charterers return to for the experience as much as the hardware.

On board

Her seven cabins include a duplex master suite and flexible guest accommodation, finished in a relaxed, contemporary style. The interior carries a gym, sauna and comfortable lounges, and the layout is tuned for sociable, active charters. A crew of nineteen, widely praised in the charter community, run a programme known for its energy and attentiveness. Loon's charm is that she feels like a friendly, superbly run private yacht rather than a formal floating hotel.

On deck & in the water

On deck, a sixteen-foot infinity pool crowns the main aft deck, with a bridge-deck jacuzzi and a well-equipped beach club opening to the sea. Her toy inventory is deep and geared to fun, and her deck flow suits long days of watersports and easy entertaining. She summers in the Mediterranean and winters in the Caribbean and Bahamas, and her crew's local knowledge in both grounds is a genuine asset to a charter.

Why she books

Loon books because of her people. A celebrated crew and a joyful onboard culture generate the kind of word-of-mouth that keeps a yacht's calendar full, and her Caribbean and Bahamas base puts her exactly where winter charterers want to be. Guests who prioritise service and atmosphere over the newest specification return to her season after season, making her one of the most reliably booked yachts in her class.
