{"key":"riva-vertigo-as","blocks":[{"section":"intro","body":"The Riva Vertigo is the boat the coastline was built for. A 20-metre open sportyacht from the most storied name in Italian yachting, she carries the marque's flagship styling in a hull understood to be powered for up to 40 knots. On the Amalfi Coast that pace is not the point so much as the presence: she reads as a piece of design as much as a vessel. The Faraglioni-view foredeck sun pads, the teak cockpit and a full crew make her the most cinematic day on offer, recommended for nine guests so the boat never feels crowded even when the group runs to twelve."},{"section":"setting","heading":"The Route","body":"From Salerno the day traces the coast west. Positano first for the terraced skyline, then the Li Galli islands and their clear water, on to Nerano for lunch at anchor, and across to Capri for the Faraglioni and the grottoes. Amalfi town closes the circuit. The captain reads the wind and the light to set the order, and at up to 40 knots the Vertigo can add a stop most day boats have to leave out."},{"section":"interiors","heading":"On Board","body":"The Vertigo is open by design, built to be lived on deck. Bow sun pads frame the Faraglioni on the crossing, the teak cockpit shades a full lunch, and three cabins below turn the day into an easy overnight for four.","bullets":["Faraglioni-view bow sun pads","Open teak cockpit rigged for alfresco lunch","Three cabins below deck: master, VIP and double","Three bathrooms with shower","Bathing platform and ladder for swim access","Overnight capacity for four guests"]},{"section":"activities","heading":"On the Water","body":"The anchorages are the day. The crew set swim and snorkel stops off Li Galli, Nerano and the Capri coves, with towels aboard and a bathing platform for easy access to the water. A removable sun shade cools the cockpit at anchor, a bluetooth stereo carries the soundtrack, and dry snacks and soft drinks are stocked. A full lunch and further provisioning are arranged on request."},{"section":"staff-service","heading":"Crew","body":"She charters fully staffed. A licensed captain runs the coast and holds the anchorages, and crew handle boarding, the swim stops and service at anchor. The group steps aboard to a boat already set for the day."},{"section":"logistics","heading":"Boarding & Transfers","body":"A Mercedes minivan transfer to the marina is included, timed to your villa or hotel. Charters depart from Salerno Marina d'Arechi, the most direct access point for the eastern Amalfi Coast. Captain and crew meet you at boarding, and the ERentals concierge confirms the timing, pickup and route in advance."},{"section":"ideal-for","heading":"Best For","body":null,"bullets":["A design-led statement day on the water","Photography and celebration charters","Small groups of nine, up to twelve maximum","Guests who want an overnight option for four"]}]}
