DARK HORSE Yacht Charter

Dark Horse trades the traditional Mediterranean season for winter cruising in the Red Sea, Abu Dhabi, and Dubai, a region where most charter yachts of her caliber simply are not present. Built by Riva in 2018 at 98 feet, she carries the low, aggressive profile the yard is known for, and that performance-first design translates directly into how she is used on charter: fast repositioning between destinations rather than slow cruising.

The toy inventory is what sets her apart from a standard charter yacht in this size range. A 38-foot Technohull GS tender serves as a chase boat, backed by seabobs, jet skis, kayaks, windsurfers, dive gear, mopeds, and bicycles, enough variety that a week onboard rarely repeats the same activity twice. Accommodation is straightforward by comparison: 10 guests across 5 cabins, finished for comfort rather than spectacle, which keeps the focus on what happens off the boat rather than in it.

For guests chartering in the Arabian Gulf during the winter season, Dark Horse fills a gap most brokerages cannot, a genuinely toy-heavy, performance-oriented yacht based where the market is thin. She also spends time in the Mediterranean, giving her more seasonal flexibility than most yachts confined to a single cruising ground.
