The beautiful Vvs1 sleeps 8. Built by Alloy Yachts in New Zealand, Vvs1 offers 112 feet (34.18m) of impeccable design and luxury. VvS1 is based in New Zealand and is available for charter in most Pacific island groups. VvS1 is a luxury exploration vessel versatile enough to enter small bays, anchor behind coral atolls or for game-fishing over submarine reefs.

For those keen on fishing, (and quite possibly for everyone else as well) Vvs1 is an ideal vessel. While wrestling in that great fish, you can make use of the spacious cockpit on the aft deck, which also has fridge/freezers and live bait tanks.

Then relax at the alfresco dining set up or the bar. A galley just inside has flexible indoor-outdoor flow. Walk forward into the indoor dining space, then a wide saloon with ample views through large windows. At the bow, the host's cabin has a walk in wardrobe and bath, and there is VIP accommodation, two twin berth guest rooms, and Captain's quarters. All have full ensuites.

The upper deck has a full gym, a cinema, study, and another lounge, plus outdoor settee and sunbeds, and two tenders aft for all your expeditions (A 6.5m Rayglass Protector and 3.7m Aquapro Divemaster). The top deck has a fantastic undercover seating area with coffee table, seating, barbeque and a teppanyaki grill. (Mmm fresh fish...).

Powered by 2 354kW Caterpillar diesel engines, VvS1 has a cruising speed of 10 knots (max.13 knots). She is designed for exceptional seaworthiness, safety and comfortable travel. This is really a well set up vessel: extensive navigation, communication, safety, security and other equipment includes air con., satellite TV, a dive compressor, and of course, all the right fishing gear!
