Onboard experience
Life on “ELEVEN” unfolds around sun, shade, and sociable spaces. Aft, deep sunpads and a broad cockpit set the mood for relaxed cruising. The T‑Top keeps the main lounge cool while preserving airflow—ideal when the Mistral freshens. Wide side‑decks lead to an elevated bow seating area away from the bustle, perfect for quiet conversations underway or an apéritif at anchor. Below, refined finishes and comfortable seating provide a discreet hideaway between swims, with two cabins supporting a low‑key overnight if you decide to linger on the French Riviera.

Fuel is excluded to give flexibility on routing, and we can arrange preferred catering, additional beverages, or shore‑side reservations on request.
Best destinations & anchorages from Saint‑Tropez
From Saint‑Tropez Vieux Port or nearby Marines de Cogolin, set a course to Pampelonne’s clear water for a late‑morning swim, then slide south to Cap Taillat and Cap Lardier for turquoise shallows and protected coves when the wind is offshore. Baie des Canoubiers offers a sheltered afternoon anchorage close to town—perfect for a final dip before sunset. Eastbound legs reward with the dramatic Estérel cliffs and, on longer days, the Îles de Lérins off Cannes. Westbound, Porquerolles and the Îles d’Hyères deliver powder‑white beaches within reach on a fast platform like the Vanquish 58 T‑Top. Cruising times are refreshingly short: Pampelonne in about 20 minutes, the Estérel around 45–60 minutes depending on sea state, and Porquerolles in roughly an hour and a half—precise timing set by conditions and desired pace.
Beach clubs & shore highlights
Saint‑Tropez’s shoreline is best enjoyed from the water with seamless access ashore. Anchor off Pampelonne and enjoy lunch at Club 55, Bagatelle, Nikki Beach, Gigi Ramatuelle, or Loulou Ramatuelle—your captain coordinates tender transfers or dock drop‑offs where permitted. For a quieter vibe, head to La Réserve à la Plage or Moorea’s laid‑back setting. Afternoon options include a gentle cruise past the citadel and Baie des Canoubiers’ pine‑fringed villas before returning to the Vieux Port for an early evening stroll. If the mood leans north, Cannes and the Îles de Lérins pair crystalline swims with a late lunch at La Guérite or a table in old Cannes. Whatever the plan, “ELEVEN” keeps the day unhurried: swim, dine, repeat—exactly how a yacht charter Saint‑Tropez should flow.

Guest capacity, crew & service
The Vanquish 58 T‑Top welcomes up to 11 guests for day use—ample space to host friends or family while keeping circulation effortless. A professional captain is included, handling navigation, moorings, and local coordination so your group can simply enjoy the water. Service is discreet and efficient: chilled beverages appear as you settle in; shore‑side transfers are timed to your table; and swim stops are chosen for clarity and comfort given the day’s breeze. For larger celebrations or added pampering, we can arrange a steward(ess) to support service onboard, as well as curated catering to complement a long afternoon at anchor. Two cabins below deck allow a quick change, a restful moment out of the sun, or an impromptu overnight on a calm summer evening.
Watersports & toys
The Vanquish 58 T‑Top focuses on spacious lounging and fast, comfortable passages—ideal for swimming‑led days off Pampelonne or the Lérins. If you’d like toys, let us know in advance: we can arrange popular add‑ons such as Seabobs, stand‑up paddleboards, or an e‑foil through trusted local partners, subject to availability and conditions. Light snorkelling is always an option in the clear shallows of Cap Taillat or the protected coves of the Estérel. As a day charter Saint‑Tropez platform, “ELEVEN” keeps the deck uncluttered so the boat remains open, elegant, and guest‑friendly; our team will advise on the best mix of toys versus lounging space for your group size and chosen route.
Fuel, APA and what’s included
For French Riviera day charters, fuel is excluded and charged based on actual consumption and route—this preserves flexibility if you choose to extend the day or change anchorages. There is typically no APA on day outings; instead, any extras (additional beverages, pre‑ordered catering, mooring at other ports, tender shuttles) are settled as incurred. Inclusions on “ELEVEN” are straightforward: professional captain, fresh towels, still and sparkling water, soft drinks, beer, and two bottles of rosé. Welcome champagne is not included by default but can be arranged. Applicable taxes and delivery/redelivery fees, if any, are confirmed at the time of booking. For the latest structure and an estimated fuel plan tailored to your itinerary, please refer to the yacht’s listing or speak with our team.
