A 60 to 70m motor yacht the Ligurian Coast in the 2026 summer window (May through October) runs $810,000 to $1,340,000 per week plus 32 to 36 percent APA, takes 12 to 14 guests across 7 to 9 cabins, and carries 18 to 26 crew. The bracket's Ligurian structural reality is the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio on the central Ligurian face as the standing 60m-plus alongside at 44 degrees 24 minutes north, with the Portofino inner harbour on the Tigullio Gulf daylight call capping at the 30 to 40m envelope and the bracket-fit 60m-plus hull at-anchor-by-default on the Portofino outer-roads, the Santa Margherita Ligure and Rapallo outer-roads on the wider Tigullio Gulf overflow at-anchor footprint, the Marina di Loano western shoulder on the Savona-flank framework, and the Genoa GOA and Nice NCE Cat A helipad shuttle handling the wider cross-coast routing. The Ferragosto August 15 wider-week, the July central peak, and the Cannes Festival mid-May Cote d'Azur spillover pull the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio allocation on the 9 to 12 month lead time. The bracket-fit Ligurian week routes the central shore programme through the Belmond Splendido Mare Portofino, the Belmond Splendido, the Hotel Eight Paraggi, the Ristorante Puny, the DaV Mare Portofino, the U Magazin, the Da O Vittorio Recco, and the Galleria Nazionale di Palazzo Spinola in Genoa central.
Why the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio narrows at the bracket
The Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio on the central Ligurian face. The Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio on the central Ligurian Genoa Port Authority framework handles the bracket-fit alongside on the 60m-plus standing capacity with the structural Ferragosto August 15 wider-week and the July central peak allocation running on the broker-and-captain network on the 9 to 12 month lead time. The Genoa Porto Antico inner basin handles the 30 to 50m fleet on the daily inner-port guest-routing, and the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio outer pier is the bracket's standing 60m-plus alongside on the central Ligurian corridor at the structural Genoa GOA Cat A helipad shuttle pairing on the wider Ligurian guest-transfer corridor.
The Portofino daylight outer-anchor reality. The Portofino inner harbour on the Tigullio Gulf eastern face caps at the 30 to 40m envelope on the inner-port structure, and the 60m-plus hull does not fit the Portofino alongside. The bracket-fit Portofino call runs the outer-roads anchor with shore tender to the Portofino Comune framework on the daily lunch-and-afternoon Belmond Splendido Mare, Ristorante Puny, DaV Mare Portofino, and U Magazin pickup-and-drop window. The Portofino outer-roads holds the bracket's structural Ligurian daylight reality on the eastern Tigullio face, and the overnight call on the Portofino outer-roads reads the structural Tigullio swell and afternoon thermal wind framework, with the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio base on the wider Ligurian corridor handling the bracket-fit overnight standing alongside.
The Santa Margherita Ligure and Rapallo outer-roads overflow. The Santa Margherita Ligure and Rapallo outer-roads on the wider Tigullio Gulf framework hold the bracket-fit overflow at-anchor footprint on the daily afternoon-shore window with shore tender to the Santa Margherita Ligure Hotel Eight Paraggi and the Rapallo Castello and Lungomare shore-tender programme. The Santa Margherita Ligure and Rapallo outer-roads run the bracket's structural Tigullio overflow on the Portofino central anchor field pressure during the Ferragosto and July central peak window.
The Marina di Loano western shoulder. The Marina di Loano on the Ligurian western shoulder Savona-flank framework holds the bracket-fit western Ligurian alongside on the 60m-plus standing capacity at the Marina di Loano outer-T structure with the daily Albenga, Alassio, and Noli outer-roads daylight shore-tender programme. The Marina di Loano western shoulder reads the structural relief on the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio central allocation pressure during the Ferragosto wider-week, with the wider cross-coast leg to the Cote d'Azur and the Sardinian Costa Smeralda running on the longer transit on the western shoulder base.
The Genoa GOA and Nice NCE Cat A helipad shuttle. Genoa GOA at 44 degrees 24 minutes north handles the bracket-fit local Cat A helipad guest-transfer on the 8 to 12 minute Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio touch-and-go, and Nice NCE handles the wider Cote d'Azur cross-coast routing on the 18 to 24 minute Nice to Genoa touch-and-go on the Monacair or Heli Air Monaco shuttle structure. The bracket without the Cat A helipad reads structurally short on the cross-coast Ligurian to Cote d'Azur and Portofino-Saint-Tropez Ferragosto wider-week leg.
Weekly rate map for the 2026 calendar
Rates below are firm summer pricing (May through October 2026) before APA at 32 to 36 percent (the Ligurian daily tender consumption on the Portofino, Santa Margherita Ligure, and Rapallo shore-tender rotation, the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio coordination fee, the Genoa GOA and Nice NCE Cat A helipad shuttle premium, and the structural Ligurian provisioning load on the Belmond Splendido Portofino, Belmond Splendido Mare, and Hotel Eight Paraggi Michelin-grade pool) and gratuity at 10 to 15 percent. The Italian charter VAT runs the standard 22 percent framework on the portion of the charter in Italian waters under the Italian commercial exemption rules.
| LOA bracket | Motor yacht (low to high) | Sailing yacht (low to high) |
|---|---|---|
| 60 to 63m | $810K to $920K per week | $600K to $720K per week |
| 63 to 67m | $920K to $1,110K per week | $690K to $840K per week |
| 67 to 70m | $1,110K to $1,340K per week | $830K to $1,020K per week |
The Ligurian peak structure runs the Ferragosto August 15 wider-week at a 14 to 18 percent premium on the late-July base on the Portofino outer-roads anchor-and-shore programme and the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio alongside allocation, and the July central peak runs 8 to 12 percent above the June and September shoulder. The June and September non-event shoulder windows read 12 to 18 percent below the August Ferragosto peak.

What you actually get in this bracket
Cabins. Seven to nine. Bridge-deck owner suite plus on-deck VIP plus five to seven main and lower-deck doubles, calibrated to the 12 to 14 guest envelope on the structural Ligurian peak-week and Tigullio daily Portofino daylight call pattern.
Crew. Eighteen to twenty-six. The Ligurian call rewards a captain bench with prior Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio alongside allocation routine through the Genoa Port Authority framework, prior Portofino outer-roads daily shore-tender routine on the Belmond Splendido Mare, Ristorante Puny, DaV Mare Portofino, and U Magazin pickup-and-drop window, prior Santa Margherita Ligure and Rapallo outer-roads overflow coordination on the Tigullio Gulf daily structure, prior Marina di Loano western-shoulder alongside coordination on the Savona-flank, and prior Genoa GOA and Nice NCE Cat A helipad coordination on the 8 to 12 minute and 18 to 24 minute touch-and-go. The chief stew bench with prior Belmond Splendido Portofino, Belmond Splendido Mare, Hotel Eight Paraggi, Ristorante Puny, DaV Mare Portofino, U Magazin, Da O Vittorio Recco, and Genoa Palazzo Spinola shore-coordination is the structural client-facing load-bearing question.
Tenders. Primary 14 to 16m fast tender plus a 12m beach tender plus a chase boat plus a dive tender plus an 11 to 12m limousine tender. The Portofino, Santa Margherita Ligure, and Rapallo shore-tender rotation runs the tender bench harder than any other Italian Riviera posting, and the bracket-fit Ligurian week reads tender-heavy on the Belmond Splendido Mare, Ristorante Puny, DaV Mare Portofino, U Magazin, and Hotel Eight Paraggi daily lunch-and-afternoon shore call structure.
At-anchor stabilizers and beach club. Load-bearing at the bracket on the Portofino, Santa Margherita Ligure, and Rapallo Tigullio daily outer-roads anchor structure outside the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio alongside. The Ligurian summer swell window on the wider southerly pattern at force 4 to 6 turns the Portofino outer-roads on the afternoon-shore window, and the bracket's at-anchor zero-speed product on the Portofino, Santa Margherita Ligure, and Rapallo anchor field is structurally load-bearing.
Helipad. Cat A load-bearing on the Genoa GOA 8 to 12 minute shuttle on the local face and the Nice NCE 18 to 24 minute shuttle on the wider Cote d'Azur cross-coast face.
Trip shape that fits the bracket
The 7-night Ligurian central routing runs Nice NCE embarkation through the Cat A helipad shuttle to the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio alongside, two nights at the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio with the Palazzo Spinola and Da O Vittorio Recco shore programme, three daylight Portofino calls on the Portofino outer-roads with the Belmond Splendido Mare, Ristorante Puny, DaV Mare Portofino, and U Magazin lunch-and-afternoon rotation, one daylight at the Santa Margherita Ligure outer-roads with the Hotel Eight Paraggi shore-tender, two nights at the Santa Margherita Ligure or Rapallo outer-roads anchor on the Tigullio Gulf evening programme, one daylight at the Cinque Terre Vernazza and Riomaggiore outer-roads with the Vernazza and Manarola shore-tender, and one night on the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio disembark with the Genoa GOA or Nice NCE Cat A helipad shuttle.
The 10-night western-Mediterranean Ligurian-and-Sardinia routing runs the prior 7-night Ligurian programme with the southwestward passage to the Sardinian Costa Smeralda, two nights at the Marina di Porto Cervo north quay on prior Yacht Club Costa Smeralda allocation, and one night at the Cala di Volpe outer-roads with the Hotel Cala di Volpe shore-tender.
What the bracket does not do well on the Ligurian Coast
The Portofino inner-harbour alongside plan. The Portofino inner harbour on the Tigullio Gulf eastern face caps at the 30 to 40m envelope on the Portofino Comune framework, and the 60m-plus hull does not fit the Portofino alongside. We would pass on any Portofino inner-harbour alongside plan at the bracket and route the Portofino call on the Portofino outer-roads anchor with shore tender for the lunch-and-afternoon rotation and the overnight call on the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio alongside or the wider Tigullio Santa Margherita Ligure and Rapallo outer-roads.
The non-prior-allocation Ferragosto Genoa plan. The Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio Ferragosto August 15 wider-week runs the structurally tight allocation on the 9 to 12 month lead time, and the walk-up plan on the Ferragosto window without the prior Marina Molo Vecchio allocation runs as the structural blocker. We would pass on any non-prior-allocation Ferragosto Genoa plan at the bracket and route the booking on the late-July or early-September shoulder edge with the Marina Molo Vecchio berth confirmed in writing through the captain's office at contract, or the Marina di Loano western-shoulder alongside contingency on the wider transit.
The November through April Ligurian plan. The Ligurian charter calendar runs the structural May through October window at the bracket, with the November through April winter holding on the wider Italian Riviera winter shutdown with the Portofino shore-restaurant programme closed and the Tigullio shore-hotel calendar on the off-season. We would pass on the November through April Ligurian plan and route the bracket on the Caribbean winter rotation.
What to book
For two couples plus children, 7-night Ligurian central routing in early September (the post-Ferragosto shoulder edge ahead of the September shoulder pull) with the Genoa GOA Cat A helipad shuttle to the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio alongside, two nights at the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio with the Palazzo Spinola and Da O Vittorio Recco shore programme, three daylight Portofino calls on the Portofino outer-roads with the Belmond Splendido Mare, Ristorante Puny, DaV Mare Portofino, and U Magazin lunch-and-afternoon rotation, one daylight at the Santa Margherita Ligure outer-roads with the Hotel Eight Paraggi shore-tender, two nights at the Santa Margherita Ligure or Rapallo outer-roads anchor, one daylight at the Cinque Terre Vernazza outer-roads with the Vernazza shore-tender, and one night on the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio disembark: a 63 to 65m motor yacht, 8 cabins, twin fast tenders plus chase plus dive plus limousine, Cat A helipad on the Genoa GOA 10-minute shuttle, captain bench on the Genoa Marina Molo Vecchio alongside allocation routine and Portofino outer-roads shore-tender rotation routine. Budget $980K per week, all-in roughly $1.34M including APA at 33 percent and Italian charter VAT framework. Lead time 9 to 12 months for the Ferragosto wider-week, 5 to 8 months for the July and September shoulder edge.
