SHARE
The superyacht company is chartering the 55m Trinity tri-deck, which is loaded with water toys and fishing equipment.
Fraser is chartering Purpose, which is now operating in Asia and will be based in Phuket during Thailand’s high season this winter. Designed and built in the US by Trinity in 2005, and featuring interiors by Dee Robinson, Purpose is a 55m tri-deck superyacht with an elevator servicing the four decks.
Having completed a refit in 2023, the yacht now features upgraded furnishings, new teak decks and an exterior paint job. Purpose charters from US$270,000 in the low season and US$310,000 in the high season.
Offering a 10m beam and a vast volume of 860GT, the yacht offers accommodation for up to 12 guests in six suites, including a full-beam master forward on the main deck. A full-beam VIP suite with a twin-entrance, full-beam bathroom is among five luxurious guest cabins on the lower deck.
Purpose is served by an experienced, international crew of 11, with crew quarters forward on the lower deck and a captain’s cabin aft of the pilothouse on the upper deck.
For guests, the main deck has a large, covered cockpit with a sofa and large chairs. Indoors are an expansive main saloon and a formal dining area midships. On the upper deck, the skylounge includes a lounge, games tables and a curved corner bar, while the covered aft deck offers alfresco dining for up to 12 guests.
The sundeck includes a spa pool, bar and sun loungers, and can be set up with an outdoor screen for a movie night. The sundeck is also the boarding point for an enormous FunAir waterslide, while an inflatable beach club is also among the yacht’s amazing array of water toys.
Along with a 32ft Intrepid tender, Purpose is loaded with jetskis, e-foils and Seabobs, as well as kiteboarding equipment, surfboards, wakeboards, paddleboards and kayaks. For fishing enthusiasts, there’s equipment and gear for deep sea fishing, fly fishing and spear fishing, while Rad e-bikes are among on-land toys.
Laura Verbrugge, Fraser Asia Manager, said: “Purpose is an excellent platform for cruising the Andaman Sea, offering guests a perfect combination of comfort, style and versatile onboard spaces.
“The yacht has a multinational, English-speaking crew that will expertly guide you through each destination, offering exceptional service and expert local knowledge. From bespoke itineraries that highlight the very best of each region to personalised touches that cater to every need, Purpose ensures a charter that is nothing short of extraordinary.”
