In recent years the addition of elevators to the larger yachts, usually in excess of 150′, has been a welcome addition. This enables people that have difficulty with stairs to still enjoy cruising on a private yacht with their friends and family. However, I find it extremely irritating to board a beautiful yacht and be told – ‘We have an elevator – but no – it doesn’t go to the upper deck.’ If it doesn’t go all the way to the top – WHY HAVE ONE?? What do you tell the guest(s) that need(s) the elevator? Gee, we’re having a great party on the upper deck but I’m sure you’ll be comfortable here in the main saloon watching a movie? If a guest needs an elevator to go to one deck, they need the elevator to go to ALL decks. I personally don’t think that’s very smart and won’t be booking these yachts for my clients needing elevators. here
There is a saying when implying someone is not very smart that goes something like the elevator doesn’t go all the way to the top. Well, the same can be said for some of the yachts I’m seeing this week.
I’m currently in Genoa, Italy at the Mediterranean yacht show inspecting the amazing yachts that will be available for charter this summer in the Mediterranean. One of the reasons I come to the show is to make sure the crews are professional and qualified, that the yachts have been maintained and to make sure the yachts are everything they claim to be.
If you happen to be someone that needs / wants an elevator on board your yacht, be sure to ask your broker – hopefully me 🙂 – does it go all the way to the top? Don’t get stuck on the lower decks missing the party.

These three yachts are the answer brokers have needed, though not all were designed with Argyll 's specific attention to handicapped needs. Islander is a good example of a yacht that wasn't designed for special-needs use, but that offers it to a reasonable extent nonetheless. Built in 1991 by Australian Yacht Builders (and refit in 2002), Islander has an elevator that services all four of her decks. "Her doorways are wide enough for a wheelchair, thus enabling guests to enjoy all the facilities of the yacht," says Alev which manages the yacht for charter. " Islander has exceptional interior volume, particularly in the main saloon and master stateroom, but also in her companionways and doorways, making movement in a wheelchair throughout the yacht entirely feasible." The yacht even has C-shaped sofas facing loose chairs that can be repositioned to make getting in and out of them easier for guests without full use of their legs.
"I loved the article and I would love to work with the managers of these yachts to bring them business. We could promote their charter business and fly their clients to them on our specially modified planes for persons using wheelchairs. Please forward my website to anyone who has an accessible yacht for charter. Sincerely, Ken Wilson
