The principal suite features a king-size bed and separate his-and-hers en-suite bathroom areas, including both shower and bathtub facilities.
VIP Double Cabin

Living Areas & Onboard Comfort
VIVIERAE II was designed as a long-range passagemaker rather than a conventional coastal motor yacht. Her enclosed pilothouse, Portuguese bridge and substantial upper-deck spaces are complemented by relaxed exterior guest areas for dining, sunbathing and enjoying extended stays at anchor.
Long-Range Cruising & Stabilization
VIVIERAE II is powered by twin Caterpillar C18 diesel engines and was designed for efficient long-distance cruising. She typically cruises at approximately 10 knots, reaches around 12 knots maximum speed and has a published range of approximately 3,000 nautical miles at economical cruising speed.
Stabilizers operate both underway and at anchor, improving guest comfort during longer passages as well as extended stays in exposed anchorages.

VIVIERAE II Charter Destinations
VIVIERAE II is currently focused on private yacht charters in the Bahamas, where her long-range capability, substantial tender package and shallow-island exploration setup are particularly well suited to multi-island itineraries.
Typical programmes may include the Exumas, Abacos and other selected Bahamian cruising areas, subject to confirmed yacht position, weather conditions and availability.
As a genuine long-range Nordhavn explorer yacht, VIVIERAE II has historically cruised extensively beyond the Bahamas. However, charter availability outside her current operating area should always be confirmed before proposing an itinerary.

VIVIERAE II Charter Rates
The standard charter configuration is based on accommodation for up to 8 guests.
Use of the convertible Sky Lounge to accommodate up to 10 guests is currently published with an additional $6,000 weekly premium. Final rate and configuration are confirmed with the charter proposal.
APA & Charter Expenses
VIVIERAE II is offered on a plus-expenses charter basis. An APA — Advance Provisioning Allowance is paid before embarkation and managed by the captain for variable operating and guest-related expenses.
Published charter information commonly uses an APA of approximately 35%. Final provisioning, fuel, dockage, cruising permits and other itinerary-related expenses depend on the confirmed charter programme.
