Verdict

A well-sized 2011 Aicon Custom yacht for relaxed private cruising, with four cabins, air conditioning and Wi‑Fi. The layout suits an 8-guest charter profile better than the stated 9, and the lack of confirmed engine and length specs limits a fuller performance assessment.

Pros

  • +Four cabins suit family or small-group cruising
  • +Air conditioning and Wi‑Fi improve onboard comfort
  • +Autopilot and GPS support easier passage-making
  • +2011 build offers a modern-yet-established platform

Cons

  • Published capacity is 8, not 9
  • Confirmed technical data is limited for length and engines
  • No confirmed bathroom count in the listing data
  • Value depends heavily on charter condition and local market

Gaffe is listed as an Aicon Custom yacht from 2011 with four cabins and eight berths, placing it in the practical mid-size charter segment. The available data suggests a layout aimed at private cruising and short-to-medium stays rather than high-density guest use. The user-stated 9-guest figure conflicts with the confirmed 8-person capacity, so the safer operational assumption is eight guests.

On water, the public specifications do not confirm engine output or exact length, so performance should be judged conservatively. Autopilot and GPS are useful for easier route-keeping and coastal navigation, but they do not reveal the yacht’s speed, range or sea-keeping. As a result, handling can only be described generally as suited to typical motor-yacht cruising rather than assessed in detail.

Comfort is a clear strength relative to the limited spec set: four cabins, air conditioning and Wi‑Fi are the main livability highlights. That makes the boat more attractive for guests who value simple, dependable charter amenities over luxury extras. Overall value is moderate: the yacht appears well-equipped for its class, but incomplete technical disclosure and the capacity discrepancy reduce confidence for buyers or charterers comparing alternatives.
