At a glance
Sheergold is a 40 m (131 ft) motor superyacht built by Amels in 1987 and refitted in 2025. She sleeps 10 guests in 4 cabins with Captain plus 8 crew. She is available for crewed charter from €120,000 a week, cruising the Caribbean.
Timeless, pretty SHEERGOLD is for the intrepid and romantic at heart. A 1987 Amels build updated for 2025, this classic old-world explorer was a private yacht for much of her life and is now on the charter market for the first time. She’s sleek, graceful, and much like her name, exudes warmth. She comes from pedigree and is part of the SHERAKHAN fleet.
Stepping on board SHEERGOLD is stepping back in time. Her original interiors were designed by Jon Bannenberg, blending polished, herringboned pear wood with vintage African accents and gleaming brass. Plush leather Chesterfield sofas create a home-like atmosphere that instantly feels lived-in while soft ambient lighting casts a warm glow, inviting slow evenings and intimate conversation.
Outside, her wide, sun-warmed teak decks catch the light, particularly along her distinctive canoe stern, while awnings and parasols provide flexible shaded spaces. Both aft decks offer options for alfresco dining, while her forward sundeck commands the most stunning of views from plush sunpads, or a pair of observation settees on the main deck forward.
But while she may look classic, SHEERGOLD is built for adventure. With a cruising speed of 11.5 knots and a top speed of 13.5, she is ideal for unhurried days at sea—wherever that sea may be. Her heated decks make her supremely comfortable for high-latitude cruising while her breezy canoe stern is perfect for lounging under the sun. She enjoys a brand-new watertoy collection that includes e-foils, Seabobs, a towable Williams jet tender, Waverunners, paddleboards, and a modular floating platform perfect for creating your own pop-up beach club.
Her crew of nine is equally at home hosting barefoot beachside lunches along the balmy shores of the Mediterranean as they are guiding guests through the ice-strewn channels of the Arctic. Their approach is discreet but intuitive.
SHEERGOLD can accommodate 10 guests across four cabins. Her main cabin is full-beam and located on the main deck, with an additional double cabin and two twins.
SHEERGOLD is ideal for families, couples, or close-knit groups of friends; those who travel for the feeling as much as for the destination.
