*5 Stateroom layout with on deck Master*

Here is a rare opportunity to purchase a low hour superyacht and day charter business that will generate enough proven cash flow to keep and maintain this spectacular vessel in pristine condition with little to no annual cost to the owner. An unprecedented opportunity for the recently retired multimillionaire looking for the superyacht lifestyle and a hobby yacht charter business that has been completely set up for you by professional yacht charter owners.

Welcome aboard the Star Sapphire, a truly magnificent vessel meticulously crafted by the esteemed shipbuilders at Bilgin Yachts. She is equipped with an extensive array of luxurious amenities which is typical of Bilgin. They spare no expense when crafting their legendary yachts.

They have recently unveiled three new 262-foot mega yachts--Tatiana, Leona, and Al Reem--with plans to launch the 50-meter (150-foot) Camila in mid-2025, solidifying their reputation as one of the foremost yacht builders globally.

Launched in 2007, Star Sapphire features a spacious layout with five staterooms, fifth stateroom currently designed as a spa and massage room, complete with an en-suite half bath and laundry area. The master stateroom is situated on the main deck, offering breathtaking 180° panoramic ocean views.

Awakening to these stunning vistas while cruising is a remarkable experience.

A standout feature of this yacht is its expansive, meticulously designed flybridge. This space includes a generous 16-foot bar with seating, complemented by a U-shaped dinette accommodating six people--creating an ideal setting for socializing. The area is elegantly covered with a hardtop, featuring flush mount lighting and intricately designed ceiling panels with decorative trim.

Adjacent to the bar and dinette, you'll find a jacuzzi and additional thoughtfully arranged social spaces. Comfortable seating around the jacuzzi encourages interaction among guests, while two "L" shaped lounges at the aft end of the flybridge deck, complete with mounted cocktail tables, enhance the sociable atmosphere.

At the lower aft deck, a Beach Club awaits. This is one of the most sought-after super yacht features in the market today. Coupled with an oversized 18'x10' swim platform, the centerline Beach Club is accessible through a substantial 12-foot-wide garage door. This arrangement creates yet another spectacular venue for social gatherings.

Just forward of the beach club is the newly renovated crew galley, featuring sleek white lacquered cabinetry paired with azure blue crystalite countertops and backsplash. It is equipped with a cooktop, full-size refrigerator, microwave, and a spacious sink. This is all one large open space serving the Beach Club. Two full heads typically serve the crew but can also accommodate guests while anchored who are enjoying the Beach Club so there is no need to go up the aft staircase to use the restroom.

From the main deck forward of the salon is an additional staircase to access four guest staterooms on the lower deck. This is a private staircase reserved exclusively for guests. Three of these staterooms include full en-suite heads, while the fourth serves as the previously mentioned spa/massage room with laundry facilities and a half bath.

Star Sapphire is equipped with zero-speed stabilizers, significantly enhancing the owner's experience by minimizing roll at anchor and providing a smoother, more enjoyable cruising experience.

This yacht can accommodate up to five crew members, ensuring that a dedicated staff is always available to cater to the owner's needs anywhere in the world.

Throughout the living areas, timeless styling, exquisite furnishings, and sumptuous seating create an elegant and comfortable atmosphere. The use of exotic stones, marble, granite, and fine hardwoods throughout the vessel is unparalleled for a yacht under 120 feet.

The current owners have established a thriving day charter business, which can be retained if the yacht remains in the Tampa Bay Area. With a robust social media presence on Instagram and Facebook, along with over 150 five-star reviews on Google, the new owner will inherit an esteemed reputation as the premier and largest private yacht charter vessel along the Gulf Coast of Florida. Continuing the chartering business will ensure that the new owners incur no out-of-pocket expenses for their ownership experience, as the charter income will pay for maintaining the vessel in pristine condition with a full-time crew.

Star Sapphire's leisure and entertainment facilities make her the perfect charter yacht for socializing and entertaining family and friends. For those seeking the ideal layout for such purposes under 120 feet, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a true gem in the Tampa Bay Area.

This custom semi-displacement yacht is equipped with the previously mentioned modern stabilization system, which mitigates roll motion effects. This Zero Speed Stabilization feature enhances onboard comfort at anchor, even in rough waters, and performs exceptionally well while cruising. Capable of reaching speeds of 16 knots, with a cruising speed of 12 knots and a range of approximately 2,000 nautical miles from her 4,000-gallon fuel tanks, she can travel even further when cruising at 10 knots. Power is provided by twin Caterpillar C32 Acerts, each rated at 1,200 HP, alongside meticulously serviced Caterpillar 40kW generators from Caterpillar Ring Power in Tampa Bay.

There is an abundance of additional features to explore on this exceptional vessel--too many to list here. Please contact Paul Favero to schedule a private showing today!
