IMAGINE | 2023

Best for: couples seeking a high-design private escape, with close friends sharing a weekend afloat a close second.

IMAGINE is a 2023 Wajer 77, a Dutch-built motor yacht that sits squarely between a serious day boat and a mini-superyacht, and her defining quality is silence. Her interior floats inside the hull, isolating vibrations and damping engine noise to a degree unmatched in her class. The sculpted exterior, flush cleats, hidden anchor and absence of handrails give her the clean face of a much larger vessel. Inside, Sinot-designed interiors finished in whitewashed oak and leather make the two cabins feel genuinely luxurious: a forward VIP with notably high ceilings and a five-metre-wide aft stateroom with a sofa and convertible coffee table.

She carries four guests comfortably across both cabins and is built for people who want to spend the maximum amount of time on the water. The cockpit reconfigures from a shaded dining area with a full bar, fridge and ice maker into a sociable U-shaped gathering space. A sliding swim platform rises over a metre above the waterline and doubles as a gangway. The garage stores a Williams 325 tender, two Seabobs and towables, covering everything from gentle snorkelling off Ibiza to a faster-paced day out on the water.
