JUST B: from charter to ownership, the adventure continues

Luxury Charter Group announces the sale of 59m Amels expedition yacht JUST B, with Radek Gendek representing the Buyer

With thousands of nautical miles under her hull and just as many tales to tell, the remarkable 59-metre Amels-built expedition yacht JUST B has been sold.

Radek Gendek of Luxury Charter Group represented the Buyer, a longstanding charter client, while Jim Evans, Managing Partner at SuperYachtsMonaco, represented the Seller.

Thus begins an exciting new chapter in this remarkable motor yacht’s story.

The acquisition follows almost a decade of chartering around the world with Luxury Charter Group. Those experiences helped the Buyer establish their priorities for ownership and gave Radek Gendek a detailed understanding of their lifestyle and what they value in a yacht, from the layout and amenities to the crew and service. That knowledge, together with the trust built over those years, shaped his advice throughout the purchase.

JUST B is a robust and luxurious expedition yacht with an impressive pedigree and a proven capacity to explore some of the world’s most remote destinations, having circumnavigated the globe twice under her former Owners.

Designed by Vripack Yacht Design, with interiors by The Wiseman Group, JUST B was conceived for long-range exploration and has undergone extensive modernisation.

At 969 gross tonnes, with a beam of 10.6 metres, JUST B offers substantial interior volume and deck space for extended cruising. Accommodation is provided for up to 15 guests across eight cabins, including a full-beam Owner’s suite. A dedicated Owner’s deck features private lounge, dining and library areas.

The yacht holds unrestricted RINA classification and underwent major refits in 2018, 2020 and 2024. Technical upgrades include an all-new diesel-electric propulsion system, Quantum XT zero-speed stabilisers, Furuno navigation equipment, and Starlink and VSAT communications systems.

A gym, generous outdoor areas and dedicated dive storage support life onboard, complemented by Cobra and Novurania RIBs, Seabobs, kayaks and diving equipment.

Commenting on the sale, Radek Gendek said, “After almost ten years of arranging charters for this client, it has been a pleasure to guide them through the purchase of JUST B.

“Chartering gives clients the opportunity to experience different yachts, crews and cruising areas before committing to ownership. It also helps us understand which features matter most to them in practice,” he added.

“JUST B represents a distinctive proposition in the explorer yacht market, combining Dutch shipbuilding pedigree with substantial interior volume, long-range capability and an extensive modernisation programme.

“Her scale, versatility and remarkable cruising history make her a compelling choice for an Owner seeking to explore remote destinations in comfort.”

The successful acquisition of JUST B demonstrates the value of longstanding client relationships and the importance of informed, independent advice throughout the yacht purchasing process.

With almost 20 years of experience across yacht charter, management and sales, Radek Gendek advises clients through different stages of their yachting interests, from chartering to acquiring an existing yacht or exploring new-build opportunities.
