Each week, we spotlight one yacht worth knowing. Not just for how it looks or the amenities it has on board, but for how it changes the experience of where you are. This week, our chosen charter yacht is the sleek and sporty 37-metre Lumir, available for charter with Ahoy Club.
Built by the Dutch shipyard Heesen back in 2005 and refitted in 2013, Lumir charter yacht can be described as a pocket rocket or mini-speed demon. Packing a real punch where performance is concerned, Lumir is powered by twin MTU engines, which spur it on to reach top speeds of up to 31 knots, meaning that it ranks amongst the fastest yachts in its class.
Despite its impressive speed stats, Lumir is also super comfortable to travel on, making it ideal for hopping between multiple destinations or covering serious miles of coastal cruising without breaking a sweat.
Who Wants the Top Bunk?
Families and friend groups alike will find plenty to enjoy on board Lumir charter yacht, which can easily accommodate up to 10 people across four cabins. The room configuration is made up of a spacious full-beam master suite, two VIP cabins and a twin cabin with bunks, which is perfect for little travellers.
Ideal for relaxing and taking a much-needed breath after a day on the water, each cabin offers a peaceful retreat and comes equipped with ensuite facilities. The interiors come from the drawing boards of Dutch studio Omega Architects and are characterised by nautical-themed styling with navy blue soft furnishings and bamboo woods.
Time to Practice Your Poker Face
Stepping over to the living spaces, Lumir’s interiors balance relaxed style with a welcoming vibe. Its bright and inviting main salon features comfy plush seating, a decent-sized dining area, and, as the crowning glory of the space, a full-sized, illuminated poker table.
Heading to Lumir charter yacht’s well-set-up decks, these are home to an expansive flybridge which functions as the yacht’s social hub and features a Jacuzzi for enjoying ocean views, as well as a well-stocked bar and plenty of lounging spaces. The onboard gym leaves nothing to be desired, and the aft garage converts into a generous beach club.
It’s not hard to picture yourself enjoying life on one of Lumir’s many outdoor spaces, whether you’re catching rays on deck, enjoying tucking into a fresh, alfresco meal or sipping cocktails as the sun finally sinks into the sea.
On-Water Adventures Await
Whether you’re an unapologetic adrenaline junkie or prefer to take it easy, Lumir’s fantastic selection of water toys and equipment is sure to include something to further boost your time on the water.
Home to one of the largest collections on the water, this includes two Seadoo jet skis, a Fliteboard Pro and Fliteboard Trainer, a Flite Scooter, an inflatable pool and floating lounge areas, a lily pad floating platform, wakeboards and water skis, towable inflatables, two stand-up paddleboards, a sea scooter, snorkelling gear and wetsuits and more. For when you feel ready to zip across the water for excursions away from the mother ship, the 47-foot chase boat is ready and waiting.
Angling enthusiasts will also appreciate Lumir’s large collection of fishing rods and spearfishing equipment, perfect for all manner of fishing expeditions.
Lumir Yacht Charter Hotspots
Thanks to its solid Dutch build and performance credentials, Lumir charter yacht is more than capable of taking you to many of the world’s best viewpoints. This season, with Captain Kinder at the helm (who took to her role at the impressive age of just 22), Lumir will venture through some of Australia’s top cruising grounds.
Beginning in Sydney Harbour to bring in 2026, Lumir headed up to the Whitsunday islands for the spring and summer, cruising through this sailing paradise and at the magical Great Barrier Reef until October.
From the turquoise shallows of Whitehaven Beach to the colourful coral gardens of the Great Barrier Reef, travellers on board Lumir charter yacht can expect a front-row seat to some of the most spectacular marine environments on Earth.
Lumir truly comes into its own when paired with the natural playgrounds of Australia’s east coast. In the Whitsundays, the calm, clear waters provide ideal conditions for making the most of the Fliteboard collection, allowing guests to glide effortlessly above the surface while taking in sweeping island views. The lily pad and inflatable lounge areas transform sheltered bays into private beach clubs, perfect for long, sun-soaked afternoons anchored off Whitehaven Beach.
Out on the Great Barrier Reef, the snorkelling gear and sea scooters open up an unbelievable underwater world for those on an Australia luxury yacht charter, bringing travellers face-to-face with coral gardens and tropical marine life.
For those seeking more action, wakeboards, water skis and towable inflatables deliver high-speed thrills across open stretches of water, while the chase boat makes accessing remote snorkelling spots or hidden fishing grounds easy as pie. In short, Lumir’s toy collection ensures every anchorage becomes an experience in itself.
Lumir charter yacht’s speed and agility make it easy to chase the best weather, discover secluded anchorages and slip away to lesser-known bays that larger yachts simply can’t access. Whether it’s island-hopping through the Whitsundays or enjoying sundowners against Sydney’s iconic skyline, each stop-off is well within your reach.
