Meta IV 25.3m (83′) Modern Classic Cruising Teak Sail Yacht designed by American naval architect Thomas E. Colvin and launched in 1998 with an extensive refit in 2008. Meta IV is available during winter for charter throughout Thailand and Myanmar exploring the many tropical islands, historic ports, stunning sandy beaches, reefs & private lagoons. In summer Meta IV is available for charter in Borneo. Pricing is from € 2,100 per day with accommodation for up to 8 guests (and 3 crew).

Meta IV was designed by the naval architect Thomas E. Colvin, who gave the vessel her beautiful shape and robust hull. She is made entirely of Thai teak, one of the best woods for building classic yachts.

Meta IV was constructed in 1998 as a private yacht for a Swiss businessman who made his fortune in hotels. In 2010, the Austrian skipper Herbert Mayrhauser found her at a pier in Phuket and immediately fell in love. After two years of intensive restoration work and refitting, Meta IV started her new life as a luxury charter vessel in the fall of 2012.

Meta IV measures 85 feet in length or 25 metres. That’s longer than the Santa Maria, the boat that Columbus sailed into history when he discovered the Americas. In fact, with all her space, you could almost forget you were holidaying on a yacht. Sleeps up to eight guests and with her sheer size, and the facilities on board, make for a holiday getaway that your family or friends won’t forget.

All private charters are completely tailor-made. Charter rates in Thailand and Myanmar include full crew, all on-board meals, fuel for tender, main engine and generator, snorkelling equipment and fishing gear, kayak and dinghy. Not included are port fees and Mergui Archipelago visitor fees.
