Emerald

Onboard the Emerald

At 50 metres, Emerald sits at the upper end of the fleet available from Barcelona, built by Feadship to carry 12 guests across six cabins. The cabin count matters more than it might first appear: six separate suites allow multi-generational families, paired couples, or a mixed corporate group to each have real privacy rather than shared quarters, which changes how a multi-day charter actually feels once everyone is living aboard for several nights rather than a single afternoon.

A yacht of this size is naturally suited to more than a short bay outing. From Port Olímpic, Emerald is a realistic option for the Balearics run — Mallorca sits roughly 200 nautical miles out, a two-day passage that benefits from a vessel with the range and cabin capacity to keep guests comfortable overnight rather than rushing the crossing. She can equally be used for a shorter Sitges day, though her scale means the captain will plan around Barcelona's commercial harbour traffic on the way out and back, and provisioning ahead of departure — whether sourced through Boqueria or Santa Caterina — is worth arranging with more lead time than a smaller day boat would need.

Emerald suits clients who want the space and sleeping capacity of a full-size superyacht without treating every charter as a single-day event: family groups splitting cabins across three generations, or a corporate host who needs private overnight accommodation attached to a Barcelona-based event rather than a hotel booking. Given the difference in APA and fuel planning between a short coastal run and a Balearics passage, it's worth discussing the intended itinerary early so provisioning and budget expectations are set correctly before the charter dates are confirmed.
