Amongst these exceptional yachts are the striking Exuma, the unique Sherakhan, the ultra stylish Sierra Romeo as well as the classic sailing yacht Shamoun.

Motor Yacht Exuma is one of the first of a new generation of 'Green' yachts and was recently awarded the 'Green Plus Platinum' certificate at last month's Monaco Yacht Show.

Built in 1966 by the Dutch shipbuilders Vuyk, Sherakhan is one of the largest yachts in the YPI fleet. Having been refit in 2005, Sherakhan features all of the modern conveniences that one would expect from a world-class yacht.
