The Boat:
Aquabay is an attractive 70ft yacht, with great Italian sporty look. With sleek lines and effortless luxury, she is very spacious for its size and has many features normally reserved for much larger vessels including the space at the front of the boat. Aquabay is very popular and we can only recommend to book early; Corporate events, weddings, birthdays, photo shoots… there is not one event that doesn’t fit in with Aquabay, so demand is high. Many celebrities have been onboard, and we feel that Aquabay is the perfect choice for a spectacular event out on the water for VIP entertainment.
