About Tempest WS

Tempest WS is a labor of love, an exquisite blend of elegance and nostalgia, embodying the pinnacle of classic French naval architecture. Originally built as a French coast guard patrol vessel by the renowned Chantier Naval de l'Esterel, she boasts a beautiful triple planked mahogany hull that catches the eye wherever she sails. Designed to patrol at over 20 knots in adverse weather, she combines French sophistication with military-grade efficiency.

Completely refitted in 2002 under the visionary guidance of architect André Mauric, Tempest WS has been reborn, marrying her original sea-keeping qualities with the comforts and style of a modern motor yacht. Her interior accommodation is surprisingly comfortable and in "as new" condition, making her a perfect yacht for cruising with both comfort and sophistication.

Consistently maintained to the highest standards, Tempest WS is a modern vessel with the charm of a classic yacht, representing a unique piece of maritime artistry. She is the ideal size for comfortably cruising the Mediterranean and is fully commercial ready, making her a successful charter vessel. This true gentleman’s yacht is one-of-a-kind and must be inspected to be fully appreciated.

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.
