Schooner EROS is a magnificent 1939 Schooner that has been loving restored to her former glory with no expense spared. She is available for private charter year-round. Sailing Yacht EROS offers the elegance and luxury of a bygone era, with all of the comforts and amenities you would expect on a modern cruising yacht.

Sailing Yacht EROS has a rich history: built in England in 1939 for the daughter of a British Lord, she was soon commandeered by the Royal Navy for service in the war. Later, she was purchased by the world’s first billionaire, Stavros Niarchos, and became well known throughout the Mediterranean as his private cruising vessel. Her current owners have completed an 18-year refurbishment of the yacht, restoring her to her former Art-Deco glory while updating her with the latest electronics, mechanicals and guest amenities.

EROS offers a tremendous amount of deck space for sunbathing, relaxing, dining and entertaining. A raised sunbathing area with fully-upholstered cushions is the perfect place to work on your tan. Full sun awnings provide cool options for reading, napping, or just plain enjoying the view. In addition, a wonderfully protected cockpit offers a built-in dining table under the stars while the Caribbean breezes keep you cool.

Owner of classic sailing yacht Eros reveals the reality of life on board

Related articles, superyacht directory.

Ever wondered what it’s really like to cruise on board a classic superyacht? The owner and crew of 35 metre Eros have now given viewers an inside look with a new series of YouTube videos detailing life on board the charter yacht.

First delivered in 1939 by Brook Marine , the wooden schooner boasts a colourful history and has retained many of the original, classic interior features.

The sailing yacht was formerly owned by Greek shipping tycoon Stavros Niarchos and was once chartered by the former King of Spain Juan Carlos I during his royal honeymoon. Having been meticulously maintained with a refit in 2016, Eros can now welcome up to 10 charter guests on board.

To give prospective charterers and classic yacht enthusiasts a closer look inside the superyacht, owner Cameron Riddell has created a series of YouTube videos to document day-to-day excitement and activities on board. 

Offering winter cruises in the Caribbean and summer season charters around New England, Eros is “an amazing platform for a lot of great things to happen” comments Riddell, describing “sailing races, family trips, charters and crossing oceans” as some of the opportunities offered on board.

The first episode of Sailing Eros gives viewers a virtual tour of the yacht and introduces members of the crew. Following episodes document the sailing and regatta experience on board, show how repairs are conducted on a classic yacht, and feature clips and highlights from previous cruises.

For charterers keen to know more about the classic yachting experience and what Eros has to offer from toys to itineraries, the videos offer valuable insight and insider knowledge from those who know her best.

Eros is managed for charter by Classic Charters , with a weekly winter rate starting from $42,000. To watch more episodes of Sailing Eros , click the button below.

Sailing Yachts - EROS

About Luxury Classic Sailing Yacht EROS: Luxury Crewed charter yacht EROS is one of the most luxurious classic schooner sailing yachts in the world at this moment in time.   Available for fully customised private yacht charter cruises in the East Caribbean and NEW England, she was designed for an English Lord’s daughter. Apart from genuine classic cruising offer, this fabulous super sail yacht promises luxury performance sailing as well. With her luxurious accommodations and fantastic Captain and super yacht crew, EROS is a standout among any yachts currently available for luxury crewed and private super yacht charters worldwide! Luxury sailing yacht EROS has a unique history. She was built as a schooner, a genuine classic beauty in England back in 1939. The order came from top of the establishment for the daughter and son-in-law of a British Lord. Soon after her launch, EROS was very soon commandeered by the Royal Navy to participate in the famous evacuation at Dunkirk as part of WW2 efforts. In late 1940’s she was purchased by the first man internationally known as a billionaire, Stavros Niarchos, who made her his own private floating palace and helping her become a well-known super sail yacht in the Mediterranean yachting community. Her present owners acquired her in 1992 with the latest, museum quality restoration, with no expenses spared completed only recently! During the restoration, the original hull and deck plans were removed allowing reparation or as appropriate replacement of parts of the steel structure. A total of 20,000 bronze bolts were replaced, or renewed, all used to fasten the planks to the steel. Furthermore, the piping, pumps, winches, spars, wiring, electronics and all systems on the yacht were also either replaced or where possible completely overhauled. And while her exterior makes her what she is, the interior is where the genuine connoisseurs of sailing will be at home. The original Art-Deco grandeur of a bygone era is visible throughout with varnished teak joinery, brass fittings and rich, elegant fabrics providing a homely, yet historical atmosphere. The classic nautical theme with suitable artwork plus sofas with specially chosen burgundy velvet hue compliment a first class, classic décor par excellence.

While she has been fitted with all the latest navigation, galley and engine room equipment, she is otherwise restored as she was built. With her original varnished teak joiner work and fittings she is a step back in time evoking the romance and beauty of the Art Deco era from whence she came. Accommodation: Luxury Sailing Yacht EROS can accommodate up to 8+1 guests in 4 luxuriously appointed en-suite cabins. The guests will have a total of 3 double and 1 twin cabins at their disposal, with the twin and one double also featuring additional 2 Pullman berths. The master suite is starboard and has a Queen size bed, en-suite and shower/Jacuzzi tub. Port forward cabin has a double bed, while port aft cabin has Twin upper and lower beds. One final cabin located starboard aft has a matrimonial lower bed and a twin upper bed. This set up is very flexible and enables all parties seeking a classic yacht charter with state-of-the-art facilities required for a genuine luxury crewed yacht charter experience and adventure filled, fully customized sailing vacation in the East Caribbean and most recently in NEW England. All cabins are en-suite and with their own individual air con and audio-video entertainment systems.

Super Yacht crew on board of Classic sailing yacht EROS: A graduate at the University of California Medical Centre, Dr Bill Bodle, or captain Bill as he is known by the crew of EROS, is a highly experienced sailor who circumnavigated the world under sail, visited more than 50 countries on the way across all of the Pacific, Atlantic and the Caribbean and entertained heads of state and royalty. He is one of the most experienced sailors in the charter fleets worldwide and an award winning mariner, his work was featured in a number of high profile magazines thanks to his considerable reputation as a builder and restoration man of classic schooner yachts. Amongst other achievements, he is credited with stunning restorations of super sail yachts such as NORDLYS, GRACE, PANDA and now EROS. Bill gladly shares his experiences with all yacht charter guests during regular cocktail hours and aims to form lasting relationships with all who charter one of the museum quality yachts he captains. The remaining crew on board include hard working engineer Wilson Willkom who moved to California from Philippines in 1999 before joining SY EROS and Hawaiian born Chef Joe Lovitt who previously worked as a chef to Food and Wine bar Vino Volo CEO and who is able to prepare unforgettable gourmet meals for you and your guests, taking any dietary requirements into consideration and preparing meals with only freshly sourced out food or caught fish. On top, there is also chief stewardess Susan Taylor whose parents chartered a yacht when she was a child and on which she later decided to work and the deckhand/bosun Ramon Linderman from Puerto Rico who recently joined the team in St Thomas. All have great sailing experiences behind them with a 5,000nm journey from San Francisco through the Panama channel and onto British Virgin Islands.
