The excitement of Formula 1 racing comes to Abu Dhabi this month. The best seat in the house is undoubtedly onboard private luxury yacht MOGAMBO.
She is moored at Yas Marina. That is directly adjacent to the race course. The 74m Nobiskrug yacht MOGAMBO is available for an Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Yacht Charter. Her weekly rental rate is $650,000, plus running expenses. With a 5-night minimum reservation required and spanning the actual race dates of November 25-27, it is an exceptional opportunity.
MOGAMBO ON SCENE
Built in 2012, super yacht MOGAMBO looks better than ever, having undergone a partial refit. She’s been fully repainted, and he now has a 7th cabin for added flexibility for charter guests and/or occasional workers. The sundeck Jacuzzi has been significantly enlarged, and the gym has been redesigned.
KEY FEATURES OF MOGAMBO
The yacht’s key features include a master suite on main deck including office and balcony ensuite, as well as an exterior cinema viewing and indoor gym on sun deck. Additionally, this yacht has an elevator from lower deck to bridge deck and a large deck and interior spaces. She also features creature comforts, for instance, a hair/beauty salon and massage room. What makes her specifically stand out are her large floor to ceiling windows. If you desire additional supernumeraries onboard, she has a 7th cabin for occasional workers.
ETIHAD AIRWAYS PARTICIPATION
The 2016 FORMULA 1 ETIHAD AIRWAYS ABU DHABI GRAND PRIX is the Middle East’s biggest international sporting event and the only twilight race on the F1® calendar. The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is just one of two Formula 1 circuit races that directly encompass a marina where guests can enjoy the action from the deck of a superyacht. The other is Monaco.
WHAT MAKES GRAND PRIX YACHT CHARTERS FAMOUS?
Grand Prix yacht charter vacations in Monaco are famous for their celebrity parties and many racing sponsors hire yachts to serve as private, secure viewing platforms. Much of the course in the Abu Dhabi race hugs the Yas Marina Circuit and viewing the action from a yacht is unobstructed by bleachers or buildings.
The post-race fireworks extravaganza is truly amazing as well!!!
This yacht boats a color scheme common at the Monaco Grand Prix. The 37 meter Heesen motor yacht AURELIA plans to relocate this winter to Saint Martin. This is just before the Caribbean yacht charter season. The stunning, brand new yacht is available from mid December, 2011 through April 2012.
UNUSUAL YACHT PAINT JOB
Her paint job is inspired by the owner’s passion for racing cars. Motor yacht AURELIA features an unusual exterior paint job from Dobroserdov Design. Likewise, the Bannenberg & Rowell interior of motor yacht AURELIA is race-inspired as well. Luxury yacht charter guests are impressed by the richness of materials and elaborate details used to create the yacht’s interiors.
ACCOMMODATIONS
She accommodates 8 guests in four staterooms. Each cabin represents a racing car designer. The master suite is located forward on the main deck. There are 3 double guest cabins on the lower deck. First, Bertone (orange Lamborghini), second, Pininfarina (red Ferrari), and third, Zagato (green Aston Martin). These are the race car designers inspiring the décor of the guest cabins.

Every year, two annual events make a visit to the city of Monte Carlo a must for yacht charter clientele – the Monaco Grand Prix and the Monaco Yacht Show. With the Grand Prix a distant image in our rearview mirrors, focus turns to the yacht show.
What makes this show truly unique is the number of new yachts on hand. About 40 of the newest superyachts delivered in the past 12 months will be on exhibit.
Here are several yachts from the 1-800 Yacht Charter database scheduled to be on display:
Motor yacht ICON – a 62.50 meter custom built yacht launched in 2010.
Motor yacht CARPE DIEM – a 58.20 meter vessel launched in 2011.
Motor yacht MIA ELISE – a 2010, 49.90 meter custom built motoryacht by Trinity Yachts.
The show is open daily. In specific, from 10am to 6.30pm. It takes place at Port Hercules, Boulevard Albert 1er, in the Principality of Monaco. The main entrance to the show is the Darse Sud entrance. There are other entry points at the Chicane and Parvis Sud. General admission tickets are available at the entrances for €65 per day.
OK, it’s time for all of our gearhead buddies to come clean. We know the only reason you call us each year to book a yacht for theMonaco Grand Prix. Your wives have zero interest in sitting in the stands with hundreds of strangers, watching F1 racers zip by.
WHAT YOUR LADIES DESERVE
We understand. A yacht docked along the quay with amenities like ondeck hot tub and luxurious sun lounges gives your ladies what they want and deserve. It also gives you and your friends unobstructed views of the street track.
COMPROMISE
It’s that spirit of “compromise” when it comes to racing that caught our attention with this new item.
BRING ON THE ESPRESSO!
Our editor walked in this morning with a photo of the Espresso Veloce Machine. It is an espresso machine billed as a tribute to the 1990’s Grand Prix race car engines. These machines powered racing legends like Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher.
VELOCE – means “fast” in Italian
CONSTRUCTION
The Espresso Veloce Machine construction of race-world alloys includes magnesium, titanium, and aluminum. It is about half the size of a real-life 3-liter racing engine. The machine comes in both a V10 and V12 configuration. The oil-filler doubles as a grappa reservoir. Coffee serves through the exhaust tubes.
And get this. The mug designs complement the overall theme!
PRODUCTION
Production is limited to just 500 numbered units worldwide. No word yet on the price or anticipated shipping dates.

Now the real trick – getting your wife to toss the LavAazza. Replace it on the kitchen counter with this bad boy!!! 😉
