About this yacht

Onboard the Invictus 280

At nine metres, the Invictus 280 sits at the sportier end of the day-boat range: a single-cabin layout built for groups who want speed and an open deck rather than cabins to spread out in. Eight guests fit comfortably for a few hours on the water, with the boat's compact hull making it easy to duck into smaller bays that larger motor yachts would skip.

Based out of Sardinia, the Invictus 280 works well for a short run from Palau toward the edges of the Maddalena Archipelago, or a late-afternoon loop along the Costa Smeralda coastline timed to be back at the dock as the light turns gold. Its size keeps the trip informal — no need to plan around Med mooring queues or long transits, just a few hours chosen around the wind and the group.

It suits couples wanting a private afternoon on the water, small friend groups, or families with older children who are happy on a boat without multiple decks. Because it's a day boat rather than a live-aboard yacht, bookings are typically arranged by the hour or for a half or full day, which makes it a practical option when a shorter, lower-commitment charter fits the trip better than a multi-day booking.
