Overview
GAJA is worth shortlisting for larger private groups, celebrations, and corporate hosting. The planning focus should be event calendars, berth pressure, and quick jumps between Cannes, Antibes, Monaco, and Pampelonne, then dates, cabins, onboard rhythm, and a realistic port strategy.
Charter fit
GAJA is best considered for larger private groups, celebrations, and corporate hosting, with a flagship charter mood built around privacy, hosting, and status. The useful planning angle is a high-service event charter, not a generic yacht-listing comparison.
Shortlist logic
GAJA should make the shortlist when the brief needs a high-service event charter around Mediterranean and Monaco. The decision should weigh 114'8 / 34.95m, 8 guests, 4 cabins, 2006 | 2013 (Refitted) against route timing and guest flow.
Use GAJA when the brief calls for a flagship charter mood built around privacy, hosting, and status. At 114'8 / 34.95m, the yacht has a different planning profile from a simple day boat. The key question is whether the yacht is not forced into a rushed sightseeing loop.
For Riviera Yachts Charter, the route should start with Monaco, Cap Ferrat, and Cannes. That keeps the charter practical around event calendars, berth pressure, and quick jumps between Cannes, Antibes, Monaco, and Pampelonne, especially in peak weeks. The port decision should choose the marina around the real day plan because Monaco, Cannes, Antibes, and St Tropez are close but not interchangeable.
The earlier the request is shaped, the cleaner the shortlist becomes. May to September, with Monaco, Cannes, and St Tropez dates requiring early berth and route planning. The broker note should be honest about limits: availability, cruising area, and APA assumptions should be checked before presenting GAJA as confirmed.
The onboard experience is defined by how guests use the space. Deck space, cabin layout, and crew style should be matched to the occasion. For this yacht, the occasion is usually stronger when it is treated as a high-service event charter.
A fair shortlist should explain why GAJA is preferred over the next option. In this case, ask whether check whether the yacht is being shortlisted for its real fit or only for its headline specs, then compare rates and availability.
The main caveat is simple: availability, cruising area, and APA assumptions should be checked before presenting GAJA as confirmed. This does not weaken the yacht; it makes the recommendation more precise and easier to trust.
Technical profile
Charter price
GAJA is positioned around $77,000 p/week + expenses, before the final charter budget is shaped by APA, tax, fuel, berths, provisioning, delivery and the route requested.
Hotchya Shipyard build, 114m class
The value is in the way the yacht supports guests: cabins, deck space, crew flow, toys, tenders, service rhythm and the ability to make the route feel effortless.
Fuel, provisioning, berths, delivery, local taxes and crew gratuity should be clarified before treating any weekly or day rate as the full charter budget.
Guest fit
Strong
GAJA gives the group a cabin-led base for multi-day planning, with space to balance privacy, meals and time on deck.
Confirm toys
Ask which toys, tenders and swim setups are currently offered before building the route around water sports.
Selective
For event-style use, confirm legal guest capacity, deck flow and whether the yacht is intended for cruising or static hosting.
Inspect style
Interior mood, deck style and service tone should match the client. The right yacht is not only the largest available yacht, it is the yacht guests want to live in.
Charter fit scorecard
5/5
The 114m class gives the yacht its baseline for deck space, cabins and guest flow.
Check list
Confirm the current toys and tenders before promising an active water-sports day.
4.5/5
Amenities and features give the yacht stronger onboard value beyond transport.
Visible
Rate context is available, but APA, tax, fuel, berths and delivery still need confirmation.
Comparison
Newer yachts in the same class may offer fresher interiors, newer beach clubs or updated wellness layouts. GAJA should be compared on guest fit, refit status, deck flow, crew programme, toys, range, availability and the route you actually want to run.
The strongest shortlist is not the newest yacht by default. It is the yacht whose layout, service style and operating assumptions match the client, the port and the itinerary.
