WHAT WE SAY

Broker's comments, oyster brokerage are delighted to announce 62-11 luna of london. now exclusively available through oyster brokerage. ultra high specified with extended transom, customised interior layout and an abundance of extras throughout. extensively refitted in 2015-2016..

62-11   Luna   of   London   is arguably the highest spec’d Oyster 62 on the market. A 2003 build, now in her second ownership, she has the fantastic foundations   of   a customised design from build, that has been upgraded and enhanced over time, partly due to completing the Oyster World Rally (2013-14), but also as a result   of   the substantial refit in 2015-16, to become a yacht that has the solid bones   of   a traditional yacht, but with all the modern benefits.      

Perfectly equipped for extended sailing adventures,   Luna   of   London   uniquely features a counter stern design with extended hull and deck, providing enhanced entertaining areas, security and storage.     The latter   of   which has recently been adapted to comfortably house the hydraulic in-built passerelle.  

A true short-handed configuration,   Luna   of   London , has an in-mast furling main, hydraulic furling headsails, electric primary and mainsheet winches, and a complete spinnaker package, all   of   which are designed to be controlled from the comfort   of   the cockpit. The benefits   of   the new sail wardrobe, latest navigational equipment, new generator, lithium-ion batteries, replacement   of   the standing and running rigging, sandblasting and recoating   of   the hull, and thorough systems checks throughout during the refit, means that she oozes confidence on all levels.  

The interior, uniquely customised to maximise the space, versatility, and usability, is beautifully appointed in teak, and the leather upholstery throughout is truly opulent. Featuring three spacious double cabins, each with en-suites, and an additional twin cabin, complete with dual access to the aft head, she is great for accommodating family, friends, and even crew with ease. The perfectly equipped galley, comfortable saloon area, customised navigational area primarily in the owner’s stateroom, with dual functionality in the secondary area in the saloon, and even fo’c’sle with dedicated storage and workshop areas, allows every space   of   the yacht to function with effortless ease. 

Currently based in Porto Rotondo, Italy, in a fantastic cruising ground and EU VAT paid.

BROKER'S COMMENTS

> PROBABLY THE BEST PRICED BOAT IN HER CLASS

> REFIT WORK COMPLETED IN JANUARY 2024 THROUGHOUT THE LOWER DECK

> FULLY SERVICED & PREPARED FOR 2024

If you are looking for a yacht that…………..

• Is a highly regarded model from the respected Azimut brand,
• Has proven itself as a wonderful haven for family and friends,
• Has good charter potential,
• Has a sound mechanical history,
• Can cruise serenely and frugally at 12 knots, efficiently at 20 to 22 knots, and can get you there fast at 28 to 30 knots,
• Has refined and elegant lines,
• Is available as a turnkey package with a captain who has been on board four years,
• Has a dock available in Palma de Mallorca (by separate agreement),
• And is extremely well priced,

……………then Time Out could be the yacht for you.

Time Out has had only two owners since she was launched in 2003. The current owner purchased the yacht in 2006 at which time she was in Palma de Mallorca, where she has remained since. The yacht has benefited from a full time captain throughout her life and from maintenance being provided by the highly skilled service providers that are to be found in that globally recognised yachting hub.

The owner has great appreciation and respect for the importance of proper maintenance, learnt through operating helicopters and light aircraft for many years. Consequently, Time Out has enjoyed a diligent and consistent approach to ensuring her mechanical wellbeing resulting in reliable and safe boating season after season.

Time Out has provided an ideal platform for creating cherished memories with family and friends, primarily whilst cruising locally in the Balearics, but also on occasional longer excursions such as the +/- 1500nm round trip to the Amalfi Coast of Southwest Italy.

Time Out has proved to be a faithful servant, dearly loved by the owner and their family. Now though, in light of their decision to pursue a different style of boating, there is a super opportunity for this lovely yacht to be enjoyed by a new keeper.

Thank you for considering Time Out of London.

The joinery and cabinets are Cherry wood with a satin finish. A cream carpet is laid through the yacht with the salon and dining area being protected by a fitted canvas cover. The galley and heads/showers of the VIP and guest cabins, and crew quarters have wood flooring. The master suite ensuite has marble flooring.

Entering from the aft deck through the large stainless steel framed patio door you arrive in the salon. Here there are spacious leather upholstered sofas to port and starboard, and cabinetry to port which houses the 42” TV on a lift system and other AV equipment, as well as providing storage.

Moving forward, the galley is on the port side opposite dining to starboard. A well thought out feature here is the ability to have the galley open to the dining area or for it to be closed off by sliding shutters. The dining table is on runners allowing it to be positioned more outboard or inboard depending on how many people wish to be seated. In it’s outboard position it helpfully creates more space in the companionway.

At the forward end of the main deck is the lower helm position to port and to starboard are the stairs leading down to the lower deck.

There are two watertight pantograph doors to the side decks. One on the port side from the galley and one on the starboard side at the top of stairs that lead to the lower deck. These really enhance access around the yacht and create great air flow should you opt for natural ventilation instead of running the air conditioning.

Beginning forward, the lower deck features a VIP cabin with ensuite head/shower. Aft of the VIP cabin there are two guest cabins, one to port and one to starboard, both with ensuite head/shower. The starboard cabin ensuite head/shower also serves as the day head with daytime access from the companionway so there is no need to enter the cabin. Amidships is the full beam master suite with a large ensuite head/shower to starboard including his & hers sinks and spacious power shower, a walk-in closet to port, sofa to starboard, lots of storage and large portholes providing great views and plenty of light.

The Crew Quarters, positioned between the master suite and engine room, comprise one bunk cabin, separate crew mess and Pullman berth providing accommodation for three instead of two as standard. They can be accessed via a stair from the galley or via the engine room using the transom door. The selection of crew access routes together with the port side pantograph door from the galley to the side deck help to greatly minimise the need for crew to disturb guests while going about their duties. Such separation is difficult to achieve so well on a yacht of this size and was considered a remarkable feature when the 80 Carat was launched.

All exterior decks are laid with teak. The gelcoat finish to the topsides and superstructure maintains a good level of gloss and was machine polished prior to the 2023 season.

The Azimut 80 is well known for having an expansive flybridge that provides a large amount of seating plus a sun bathing area. Time Out has the optional teak deck here and other upgrades include extra refrigeration, electric BBQ/Grill and a heavyweight bimini frame. This is a lovely area for relaxing and for dining whilst enjoying a great view of your surroundings. The aft end of this deck is home to the tender, a 4m Novurania with 50Hp Mercury 4 stroke outboard, and its crane, an upgraded Opacmare unit rated at 400Kg.

At the foredeck there is a large, cushioned sunbathing area in addition to which Time Out has two recliner chairs and a table that can be arranged at the bow and folded away for stowing out of sight when not in use. A very nice feature is that the anchor windlass is concealed so, unlike most yachts, the foredeck area is completely clear.

Moving aft, the side decks are of a comfortable width and the interior can be accessed from either side via pantograph doors around midships.

The aft deck provides a beautifully varnished table mounted on a robust stainless steel pedestal. It can be configured in a ‘small’ round mode or have inserts added to become a larger oval dining table. Mesh sun/wind shades are available which connect between the flybridge overhang and the aft deck coaming providing very effective relief from the sun whilst still allowing you to view the surroundings. There is a drinks fridge, and stairs to the flybridge and bathing platform. Importantly, the stairs are large and at a comfortable angle. Access to and from the dock is via a stainless steel telescopic passerelle that vanishes completely out of sight when not in use and has integrated lights for a little extra safety at night.

BATHING PLATFORM

The port side of the platform features a large GRP door that gives access to a garage designed for stowage of a jet ski and equipped with a winch to assist with launch and recovery. In Time Out’s case, this space is home to two kayaks. Just off the centreline of the transom to port is another door concealing the integrally moulded stair between the platform and aft deck as well as the pocket inside which the electro-hydraulic telescopic Opacmare passerelle is housed. Both doors are hydraulically operated. Just to starboard of the centreline is a manually operated watertight door giving access to the engine room and through to the crew quarters. A telescopic electro-hydraulically operated bathing ladder is housed within the platform.

WHAT THE PRESS SAY

YACHTING (magazine)

Azimut 80 Carat

Smart, subdued styling makes the Azimut 80 Carat a gem in her class.

By Dudley Dawson

Aficionados of fine diamonds consider the four C’s in purchase decisions. Azimut designated its new motoryacht “Carat” with one of the C’s in mind, but I found the cut, color and clarity of this 80-foot fiberglass jewel equally telling in appreciating her value. Like any fine gem, she is not flawless but comes very close.

The Azimut 80 Carat is an open and largely informal family yacht, a trait she shares with other models in the Azimut line. Her informality does not imply any lack of quality in her finish, however. Cherry bulkheads, cabinetry and overhead accents are highly detailed, well fitted and finished in high-gloss lacquer that twinkles with clear reflections of recessed overhead lights. (NB: Lacquer in Time Out is satin, not high gloss)

Upholstered furniture, soft bulkhead panels and dramatically shaped overheads are in neutral hues that nicely complement the woodwork. Most countertops are marble or granite. The master head sole is marble, while wood is used in other heads. The sole of the in-line galley is a sensible nonslip patterned rubber that will be easy to clean and comfortable on the feet. (NB: Time Out has a wood sole in the galley)

The Carat’s profile, from the talented hand of stylist Stephano Righini, identifies her as a sister to other Azimut yachts, both larger and smaller. Yet unlike Azimuts that have a large, continuous oval pattern in the deckhouse window, the Carat’s window is divided by a sizeable “dorsal fin” post. It eases the earlier look’s boldness and blends nicely into the curves of the pilothouse and flying bridge.

This boat’s size puts her on the cusp of that point between owner-operated and crewed yacht, maybe a little past it. Only the most capable family will want to cruise her alone. Most will carry at least a captain, perhaps a mate, too. Though the 80 is primarily a production yacht, Azimut offers an option on the crew arrangement. The standard version has crew’s quarters with upper-and-lower single berths and a small mess. The optional American arrangement replaces the mess with a double berth and hanging locker for the captain, allowing space for a chef/steward in the second single if desired. (NB: Time Out has a custom crew configuration that accommodates three)

On yachts this length, the basic question is always the same: four comfortable staterooms, or three that are a bit more lavish? The Carat opts for four and does not offer an alternative, but her eight guests will not suffer.

The full-beam master is near amidships, where pitch will be minimal. The master is separated from the engine room by the crew’s quarters, but during our trials, there was little perceptible vibration on the afterdeck and none inside the yacht. The master has a vanity and a large walk-in locker to port, and a comfortable settee to starboard. The head includes a spacious shower, a bidet and two sinks.

VIP guests are accommodated in a bow stateroom with an island queen berth. The remaining four guests occupy two twin-berth cabins, port and starboard between the master and VIP staterooms. Though more compact, the twin cabins are finished and outfitted as nicely as the two main staterooms. For example, the VIP and twin cabins have nearly identical heads: All have circular showers with water outlets overhead that provide the rain-showering equivalent of surround sound. Curved acrylic shower doors rotate out of the way when not in use, allowing extra floor space in front of the toilet and sink.

The Carat’s second option in arrangement comes in the dining area on the main deck’s starboard side. The standard layout includes an oval dining table surrounded by eight chairs, while the American version replaces the outboard chairs with a large banquette. Both have a compact galley to port, facing the table. A beautifully built tambour panel lets the galley remain open as a buffet for informal dinners and cocktail parties. During more formal meals, the panel can be closed for privacy.

A lower helm is forward of the galley. Aft, the saloon has fixed seating on two settees facing an entertainment center in the after corner of the room.

The afterdeck is spacious and fully protected from sun and rain by the extended flying-bridge deck above. Full-length side decks and aft mooring stations with raised capstans, cleats and roller fairleads make docking a snap.

A single stairway leads to an integral swim platform. In port or at anchor, a transom door provides entry to the engine room and, through it, access to the crew’s quarters. Stern stowage lockers large enough for personal watercraft flank the door.

Accessibility in the engine room is good outboard of the engines, excellent in all other areas. I was happy to see emergency fire dampers on the ventilation ducts and a structural cage around the V-drive shaft, safety features too often omitted.

The flying-bridge deck is huge. Even with a tender stowed aft and a large sun pad, there is still plenty of room for socializing. The driver’s pod at the centerline helm has enough space for a companion on either side.

Testing the Carat in the azure waters off Azimut’s home port of Viareggio, Italy, I got a good feel for the hull’s performance. She tracked true and was good in turns, with moderate inboard banking, little loss of speed and no noticeable bow drop. The ride was easy with no pounding or slap, and inside, the boat was quiet enough for normal conversation at the helm.

Encountering a combination of swells and small chop was not the same as running in heavy weather, but the Carat’s V-hull with a fine entry and 10 degrees of deadrise at the transom should take on the seas with the same ease I’ve enjoyed on other Azimuts with similar hull forms. Both lower and upper helms were excellent. Controls were straightforward and easy to operate, and response to the wheel and throttles was immediate and predictable.

We topped out at 32.4 knots at 2300 rpm, this boat being equipped with MTU 12V 2000 engines developing 1,500 hp each.

The Azimut 80 Carat’s combination of reliable composite construction, interior and exterior comfort, smart yet subdued styling and excellent performance make her a jewel worthy of consideration. She is suitable for formal or informal entertaining, day-tripping or extended cruising.

MALAIKA OF LONDON is a fantastic-looking boat that will certainly turn heads whether cruising down the French canals or berthed in a marina. Any buyer should also consider making the investment to turn MALAIKA into a floating Airbnb. With tons of space for dining and living, she would be ideal.

Owner’s Comments

MALAIKA has been our first boat, and one that we have truly loved. Over the past four years, we have covered 2,300 nautical miles around the coast, including trips to the Isle of Wight, Solent, Littlehampton, The Hamble, Eastbourne, central London, and several journeys to Southwold and Ipswich. She is easily manageable by the two of us, and thanks to her twin engines, bow thruster, and easy handling, she is often taken out solo. Bear in mind, we started as complete novices! The previous owner kept her as a liveaboard in St Katharine Docks, but we wanted to spend more time at sea, so we undertook a significant upgrade of the navigation, safety equipment, and instrumentation in 2022. We frequently entertain on board—she has a great galley and outdoor space—and she always attracts a lot of attention in any marina.

Meandering Through London’s Iconic Landmarks

As we embark on our journey along the Thames, one of the first landmarks that captures our attention is the majestic Tower Bridge .

Not far downstream, the Tower of London comes into view, its ancient stone walls telling tales of centuries past.

Further along, the splendour of the Houses of Parliament and the timeless charm of Big Ben dominate the skyline.

The British entrepreneur was found not guilty of fraud charges in the sale of his company to Hewlett-Packard. He was celebrating his acquittal when his yacht sank off the coast of Sicily.

Michael de la Merced reported on Mike Lynch’s career and legal battles over the course of 13 years across two continents.

Mike Lynch , a British software mogul who was once celebrated as a top technology leader — only to spend more than a decade defending himself against accusations that he orchestrated one of the biggest frauds in Silicon Valley history — died on Monday after his yacht sank off the coast of Sicily . He was 59.

An official in the Italian city of Palermo confirmed on Thursday that Mr. Lynch’s body had been recovered by divers.

Twelve guests and 10 crew members were onboard the yacht, the Bayesian, when it went down during a violent storm. Mr. Lynch’s wife, Angela Bacares, was rescued, along with nine crew members and six passengers. Six bodies have been recovered, and one person is still missing: Mr. Lynch’s daughter Hannah Lynch.

Mr. Lynch’s death came two months after he was acquitted in federal court in San Francisco of criminal fraud charges, tied to the $11 billion sale of his company, Autonomy, to Hewlett-Packard in 2011. The takeover, widely regarded among investors as one of the worst deals in history , led HP to accuse Mr. Lynch of deception.

Prosecutors in the United States charged Mr. Lynch with more than a dozen counts of fraud and conspiracy related to the deal, with a potential sentence running to about two decades in prison.

On the day in 2023 that a British judge found him liable for civil fraud in the matter, the British government — despite numerous appeals by Mr. Lynch — approved his extradition to the United States. He was confined to a townhouse in San Francisco under 24-hour surveillance, on his own dime. During his house arrest, his mother, Dolores, and his brother, Richard, died.

The accusations sullied the reputation of Mr. Lynch, who was known at one point as Britain’s Bill Gates.

Michael Richard Lynch was born on June 16, 1965, to Michael and Dolores Lynch, working-class immigrants from Ireland, and grew up outside London. He attended private school on a scholarship and graduated from Cambridge before founding Autonomy in 1996. The company helped clients analyze unstructured information to unearth hidden insights about their businesses.

By 2011, Autonomy had become one of Britain’s most prominent technology companies, with its home base sometimes called “Silicon Fen” — a name derived from its location at the southern tip of the Fenland, a marshy area in eastern England.

Mr. Lynch became a celebrity in British tech circles. He was a member of the Royal Society, one of the country’s top scientific associations; an adviser to David Cameron, the prime minister at the time; and a member of the BBC’s board.

Autonomy drew the attention of HP, which had sought to transform its fortunes by buying a high-powered software company, and which eventually paid 60 percent over the British company’s market value. But investors and analysts opposed the deal, and HP wrote down the value of the transaction by $8.8 billion. HP fired the chief executive who led the deal and, soon after, Mr. Lynch himself.

Meg Whitman, the former eBay leader who took over HP, accused Mr. Lynch and his lieutenants of “serious accounting improprieties” that misled her company over the state of Autonomy’s business.

But Mr. Lynch — armed with the hundreds of millions that he collected from Autonomy’s sale — hired an army of lawyers to argue that HP had been aware of the company’s practices. His team also said that Mr. Lynch had largely delegated the company’s day-to-day financial operations.

Mr. Lynch’s trial began in San Francisco in March. It stretched out over three months and involved reams of often dense internal documents. After two days of deliberations, a jury found Mr. Lynch and Stephen Chamberlain, a former Autonomy vice president of finance who faced similar charges, not guilty on all counts. (Mr. Chamberlain was fatally struck by a car on Saturday while out for a run, his lawyer, Gary S. Lincenberg, said Monday in an emailed statement.)

After the verdict, Mr. Lynch said in a statement, “I am looking forward to returning to the U.K. and getting back to what I love most: my family and innovating in my field.” He later returned to his homes, in London and Suffolk.

While defending himself against the HP accusations, Mr. Lynch became a venture capitalist, founding Invoke Capital to invest in companies including the cybersecurity provider Darktrace.

More recently, he had begun to focus on artificial intelligence research, including ways the technology could help those with hearing difficulties.

His survivors include his wife and another daughter, Esme.
