About SHADES OF GREY

Best for: families with active teenagers, with groups of friends chasing water sports a close second.

SHADES OF GREY is a brand-new 2024 Sunreef 80 catamaran sailing in Italy with a full crew of five, including an Italian chef who specialises in fresh pasta and a captain who has already logged successful charters aboard her. That combination of a familiar captain and a proper galley chef sets the tone: every detail, from itinerary to dinner, is handled.

Four cabins sleep up to nine guests across a master with a walk-in wardrobe and king bed, a VIP cabin, a double, and a flexible three-berth cabin that suits younger travellers or a fifth adult pair. The water sports list is genuinely serious: two Seabob F5S, a Fliteboard, wakeboard, water ski, towable, an inflatable slide off the flybridge, and a powerful eight-person tender to reach it all. Francesco Volpato cooks to preference using seasonal ingredients, so meals match the pace of each day, whether that is a long lunch at anchor or a quiet dinner after a full afternoon on the water.

Guest reviews

The boat is stunning: we had high expectations of the Sunreef 80 and they were met if not exceeded: beautiful, luxurious, very spacious, functional, beautifully decorated and super comfortable.

The toys were great and everybody had so much choice and enormous fun. Both our friends for the first half of the holiday and our family for the second half were completely blown away.

But what made the holiday seriously special was the crew. They have been truly special: super professional, extremely attentive, always available, always a step ahead when it came to looking after our needs. The chef was amazing; we ate spectacularly throughout the whole holiday. The whole team have been a dream: they created a harmonious, welcoming, extremely high end service level, with a feeling of being at home.

We have been chartering boats for many years but we had not experienced such a beautiful dedicated crew before. The captain has created a perfect team: good atmosphere, always calm, with everybody always available for any need. Francesco is really an amazing skipper - have not met someone like him before in over 15 years of chartering.

So we feel we have been very lucky and I think we will charter Shades of Grey again.

Charter Feedback Mallorca July 2025July 2026

The clients had a wonderful time on board and gave very positive feedback and a lovely tip for the crew!

From my side, working with Captain Francesco was very easy, he was happy to have a call with the client’s agent and quickly prepared a suitable itinerary for the client’s trip. He gave regular updates throughout the charter.

I would happily work with this yacht and crew again!

Good to know

We want to make sure you are well prepared and informed for your trip. Here are a few things you might want to know before you set off.
An APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) is an amount paid to the yacht before your charter. It's a fund to cover expenses such as food & drink eaten on board, fuel and mooring fees. At the end of your charter, you’ll receive a detailed document showing how the APA was spent, and any remaining balance will be refunded to you. if in doubt about what is included, ask your HELM broker.
The Captain will let you know if you're about to overspend and discuss your next steps, which wil generally be a bank transfer to top up the funds.
We recommend (10-15% for the Med) (15-20% for the Caribbean/Bahamas) of your charter fee, which will be split evenly among the crew (it's a nice touch to bring a blank envelope or a thank you card in advance).
We'll share your Captain's details with you a few weeks before your charter. We can set up a group chat with your group and the captain to discuss plans before you go.
