Meros Yachtsharing,
the fractional ownership specialists founded in 2019 to offer a unique ownership model to clients wanting the best of boating and the yachting lifestyle, has unveiled the itineraries of two of its fleet of yachts for 2024 and beyond. The Sunseeker 95s High Energy and Blue Infinity One – both highly customised to meet the demands of progressive owners seeking the best of the best – represent the essence of the growing Meros Sunseeker fleet which sit at the core of the exciting and highly innovative Flexshare ownership programme.

Combining the ultimate in cruising flexibility with the ultimate in yachting luxury – plus the ultimate in lifestyle events thanks to Meros concierge – Flexshare ownership delivers hassle-free boating with additional benefits. For one, a share gives you access to the Meros fleet with six weeks per year that can be spread across the different yachts in their different locations.

It means that, unlike more traditional fractional ownership opportunities, you don’t have to think about relocating a yacht to explore somewhere new, because the fleet’s itineraries have been created specifically to ensure there are opportunities to relax on board in all the hotspots of the Mediterranean and the Middle East.

“One share in the Flexshare programme gives an owner six weeks to split across the Meros fleet according to what best suits their needs, and each yacht has its own itinerary through the year,” enthuses Georg Oehme, Managing Director of Meros Yachtsharing. “The Flexshare owners all know the itineraries of the yachts, and that means they can adjust their vacations accordingly. Flexshare really does deliver the ultimate in flexibility for owners to enjoy the best the Med and beyond has to offer in absolute luxury and with absolute peace of mind.”

Locations, locations, locations

The Sunseeker 95 High Energy will offer opportunities to enjoy primarily the Adriatic and the Emirates, with her 2024-25 schedule taking in the South of France for the early part of the 2024 summer season before moving to the Balearics from July to October 2024. She will relocate to Abu Dhabi and Dubai for the winter before returning to Croatia in April 2025 for a summer that takes in Croatia, Montenegro and Greece, plus Turkey in September and October 2025 before heading back to the Emirates for the winter.

Blue Infinity One will focus on the popular destinations of the Western Mediterranean, beginning in the Balearics before moving to the South of France from May to July 2024, then heading back to Ibiza, Mallorca and Menorca for the rest of the summer, or to Corsica and Sardinia for July and August before heading back to the Balearics for September, where she will remain until the start of the 2025 Med season in April.

“From the classic hotspots and must-see, must-be-seen-at destinations of the Western Med to the stunning cruising grounds of Croatia, the islands of Greece and the spectacular winter destinations of Abu Dhabi and Dubai, the Flexshare fleet really does offer owners a wealth of choice,” says Oehme. “What’s more, as the exclusive Meros fleet expands, so will the opportunities to explore new and exclusive destinations.”

Buying into the yachting lifestyle

With shares starting at €1.25 million for a 28-metre Meros Signature 95 from Sunseeker, Flexshare owners not only get access to a spectacular yacht but also to the peace of mind that comes with a professional, dedicated crew, and full management of the yacht, crew, maintenance and other elements by the highly experienced Meros Yachtsharing team.

Of course, each yacht’s crew are selected specifically to maximise your enjoyment on board, from seasoned captains and experienced deckhands to welcoming stewardesses and first-class personal chefs. The crew will not only make your time on board unforgettable, they will also help with itineraries and suggestions for new areas to explore to ensure co-owners get the most out of their precious vacation time on board.

Coupled to that are the lifestyle benefits that come as part and parcel of the programme, which makes Flexshare not only unique in the fractional ownership market but truly revolutionary. For example, one of the Meros Flexshare yachts is berthed annually trackside at the iconic Monaco Grand Prix in May, with all Flexshare co-owners invited to enjoy one of the most exclusive events of the year. A host of other exclusive events, gatherings, and parties, all delivered with the ultimate in luxury hospitality, ensure a year-round social programme that augments and extends the yacht ownership experience, and co-owners can also benefit from exclusive benefits from Meros partners such as Thirdhome and Netjets.

“We really believe Meros Yachtsharing’s approach to fractional ownership – whether through our more traditional Quarter share model or our progressive and forward-thinking Flexshare model – offers something special for owners who want the best without the hassle,” says Oehme. “We are currently the only company in Europe to enable co-ownership of new Sunseeker superyachts managed by seasoned crews, and our expertise extends well beyond mere asset management. We are even committed to delivering an element of environmental consciousness for our co-owners, with increasing capacity to use HVO-100 renewable diesel across our fleet.”
