An important factor to consider before planning a yacht holiday

When it is time to enjoy lunch on a yacht, it is normal to expect a level of culinary experience that transcends the usual restaurant offer. Michelin dining is synonymous with superyachts, so it is only normal for guests to find dining to be one of the most important aspects of their luxury vacation.

But, with all of the positive aspects, there are some limitations of what guests can expect when sampling lunch on s superyacht. This refers to the fact that every meal aboard a yacht is not only determined by the skill of the chef or the provision crew, but rather the size of the yacht herself. This means that every yacht has a pre-determined gastronomical range, primarily influenced by the size of the galley, the size of the pantry, or the number of the crew.

This pre-determined set of circumstances is the main factor in determining the quantity and quality of lunches aboard your yacht charter. Starting with the number of the crew, if there are only 2 crew members (meaning that there is no chef, only a stewardess, and a captain) it should not be expected of the crew to deliver the same gastronomical experiences as is the case with yachts that have 3 crew members.

The length of the yacht also pre-determines the length of the galley, which directly corresponds to the quantity and intricacy of dishes that can be prepared. The fridge space, the pantry, the size of the counters, and the size of the oven are all direct factors that influence the quality of the dining experience aboard any yacht.
