Only Now Motor Yacht for Charter

Only Now is a 114-foot Tansu yacht with a cold-molded wood hull, a 2021 refit and a top deck extended to about 1,200 square feet, and a World Superyacht Awards win from 2013.

Tansu Yachts built Only Now in 2012 with a laminated cold-molded wood hull, and the yacht won its category at the 2013 World Superyacht Awards for two-deck semi-displacement or planing motor yachts. Two CAT C32 engines of 1,700 horsepower each give a 13-knot cruise, and stabilizers steady the yacht at anchor and underway. A 2021 refit brought a complete respray, new soft furnishings, upgraded galley equipment and a stronger sound system.

The refit also rebuilt the top deck, extending it about sixteen feet forward of the mast to around 1,200 square feet. It now holds an eight-seat dining table, a back-lit onyx bar with chairs for three, a seating area that converts to a sun pad, a rotating waterproof cinema screen, a karaoke machine and the sound system. Below, a large forward sun pad can be fully shaded, and the main outdoor dining area sits under solid cover.

Four en suite cabins sit on the lower deck, finished in high-gloss paneling and warm oak flooring. A Capelli tender runs guests ashore, and the toys include a Sea-Doo jet ski, two Seabobs, wakeboards, water skis, two paddleboards and a towable. Inflatable swimming platforms, beach equipment and snorkeling gear round out the list, and the spacious swim platform keeps the water close when the toys are out.

Best For

Only Now suits a group of up to eight that wants a distinctive yacht for living outdoors rather than racing between anchorages. The top deck, the 13-knot cruise and a crew of six favor long, easy days with friends or family. Ask us about the 2021 refit and how the yacht compares with newer builds.
