Arcadia Sherpa 60

Onboard the Arcadia Sherpa 60

The Arcadia Sherpa 60 measures 18.7 metres and sleeps up to 12 guests across three cabins, built around a layout that replaces the usual enclosed flybridge with continuous panoramic windows at saloon and lower-deck level. Light travels through the interior rather than stopping at a single row of portholes, so the space reads as open even when guests are gathered inside. The al fresco dining area extends this openness outward, giving meals a place in the open air that connects directly to the saloon rather than sitting apart from it. Solar panels fitted to the yacht support onboard systems, a practical detail for guests who prefer quieter running once anchored.

Out of Port Olímpic, a cruising speed of around 24 knots puts a run down to Sitges bay within reach for a day that still leaves time to swim and eat ashore before heading back. The same range works for a shorter loop inside Barcelona's own bay, useful when guests want time on the water without committing to a longer transit south. At 18.7 metres the Sherpa 60 sits comfortably within Med-mooring berths at the marina, and the three cabins give a group somewhere to retreat from the midday sun or freshen up between stops, rather than treating the boat purely as a day platform.

This is a yacht suited to smaller parties who want real cabin space without moving up to the scale of a full superyacht — three or four couples, or a family splitting cabins for an overnight stop after a day out of Barcelona. The window design rewards guests who like watching the coastline while underway, not only once the anchor is down, and the al fresco dining area gives a group a natural spot to linger over lunch mid-cruise. For clients weighing a compact motor yacht against something larger in the fleet, the Sherpa 60 offers a straightforward middle ground: enough cabin privacy for an overnight, enough speed for a proper day route, and a build that keeps the outdoors close at hand.
