Discover SALUZI: The Ultimate Charter Experience for Events, Entertaining and Unforgettable Moments


From her striking exterior artwork to her capacity to host large-scale, unforgettable events, Saluzi is a charter yacht that defies expectations. With room for 32 overnight guests and up to 250 for quayside events, she’s one of the most versatile yachts on the global charter market. We spoke with her long-standing captain, Riccardo Simi, to understand what makes Saluzi such a magnetic choice for experiences that go far beyond the ordinary.


First Impressions: A Yacht Like No Other
 

"Most guests are stunned the moment they step aboard," Riccardo shares. "They’re expecting luxury, but they don’t expect the sheer scale of the spaces. The sundeck alone is over 200 square metres. Even with 32 guests, everyone quickly disperses and finds their own rhythm."

Rather than traditional family charters, Saluzi often welcomes groups of friends or corporate clients, coming together to experience something memorable. With two Jacuzzis, expansive deck areas, and a lively social layout, the yacht was designed for shared experiences, and her guests fully embrace that.


No Two Days the Same
 

According to Riccardo, Saluzi adapts effortlessly to different guest styles. "You have the highly structured groups with one principal who predetermines every detail. And then you have the free-roaming message group types, maybe 16 couples, who explore the yacht at their own pace."

From a flexible breakfast buffet (8:00 to 10:30am) to spontaneous afternoon gatherings in the marina, Saluzi allows guests to curate their own perfect day. "Sometimes, the only time everyone’s together is breakfast," he adds with a smile.


Where Crew Excellence Shines
 

Behind the seamless guest experience is a high-functioning crew. One of Riccardo’s proudest moments? Watching his team set up Saluzi’s full floating marina, including inflatables, jet skis, and a pool, in just under an hour.

"It’s usually done at sunrise before guests wake up. If they’re already up, the crew has to adapt and move with them. Watersports tend to bring everyone together, even if they’ve spent the day doing their own thing."

Safety is paramount, too. Trained lifeguards are on duty at all times, with Seabobs at the ready should any assistance be needed.


The Monaco Grand Prix: A Charter Icon
 

Since 2018, Saluzi has been a staple at the Monaco Grand Prix, and the experience is anything but ordinary. "It’s controlled chaos," Riccardo laughs. "We run an all-day buffet from late morning into the night, with the energy shifting as the day progresses."

Guests move freely on and off the yacht, with a full crew operating around the clock. “Preparation is everything. Usually, the principal provides an itinerary weeks in advance, and we follow it to the minute.”


Hosting at Scale: Events to Remember
 

With the ability to host up to 250 guests dockside, Saluzi is no stranger to large-scale events, but Riccardo says the sweet spot is around 150. "We hosted an event near Capri once with 40 entertainers, dancers, and performers, it was like a private festival. Everything was coordinated by an external agency. It was spectacular."

Whether it’s for Cannes, Monaco, or Abu Dhabi, Saluzi delivers impact and intimacy in equal measure.


Grand Prix Party Playbook
 

If you're planning a Monaco GP party, Riccardo has some tips: "The aft decks are the best place to watch the race, if you're not watching it on TV from the Jacuzzi with a drink in hand!"

Some guests even close the doors to muffle the noise and enjoy massages during the race. Whether staying onboard or heading into Monaco, Saluzi serves as the perfect base for both high-octane and low-key celebration.


The Captain’s View
 

Riccardo has spent 7 years with Saluzi, becoming captain in 2018. His favourite space? The bridge deck, for its panoramic 360° views and unbeatable sunsets.

"The upper deck is great for intimate dinners, and the main deck becomes a hub throughout the day. But the bridge deck, that’s where the magic happens."


The Saluzi Difference
 

"What guests don’t realise until they’re here," Riccardo says, "is just how flexible Saluzi is. It’s a large yacht with a social spirit, but it still allows for privacy, quiet moments, and connection."

While many guests love the classic Capri, Sardinia, and Côte d’Azur itinerary, Riccardo encourages flexibility. "Discuss your plans early, but be open. Weather can change things, and some of the most beautiful places are the ones less travelled. Turkey, especially Gocek, Marmaris, and Bodrum, is a paradise."
