The Italian Sea Group’s ‘Raja²’ Superyacht Is Ready for Summer Charter


Your next summer superyacht charter is here.
Raja², a 180-foot superyacht from the Italian Sea Group, launched just last week at the brand’s headquarters in Marina di Carrara, Italy. And it’s ready to make some waves on the charter market when it’s delivered this spring. Priced at about $344,000 (330,000 euros) per week, the vessel will become part of the IYC fleet based out of Greece.
If you’re looking to go all-out on the high seas, this is the superyacht for you. Renderings of Raja² show off its maximalist interiors, full of bright artwork, deep walnut wood paired with a lighter, sandblasted oak, and contrasting black and gold marble. With six cabins, the vessel can hold up to 13 guests. That includes a spacious owner’s suite, adorned with neutral hues and a sizable ensuite, as well as a VIP suite, complete with dramatic artwork and its own ensuite. Six crew cabins, meanwhile, have space for 11 staff members.

As for lounging inside, there’s no shortage of space there, either. The bold design choices continue into the main salon, with its vibrant furniture, and a circular dining area. A standout spot is the bar, where the contrast between the light and dark marble makes the area pop. Here, too, you can enjoy a mirrored surface overhead; the owner requested plenty of them to reflect the sea throughout the vessel.
Heading outside, you’ll find excellent space for lounging amid Raja² ‘s powerful layout, including the two aft decks (which offer up their own dining areas) and a beach club. The sundeck’s Jacuzzi, meanwhile, is the perfect perch to take in the sea. The proverbial cherry on top is a circular lounge on the upper deck that can transform into a touch-and-go helipad.
With a nearly 30-foot beam and a gross tonnage of 499 GT, the superyacht offers up some powerful muscle below deck. With two CAT C32 Acert engines, Raja² has a top speed of 18 knots and a cruising speed of 16.5 knots. At 10 knots, its range is about 3,500 nautical miles. The garage carries a 26-foot tender, along with other water toys, for fun on the water.
“M/Y RAJA² embodies bold and sophisticated luxury, combining exquisite materials and harmonious contrasts to create a unique and exclusive experience,” Gianmaria Costantino, CCO of the Italian Sea Group, said in a statement. “Every detail is designed to offer not only beauty but also comfort and functionality.”
Seems like that’s your summer plans sorted, then.
