Ocean Alliance is delighted to announce our appointment as the Charter Central Agent for the renowned 41m Benetti Oasis superyacht, NORTHERN ESCAPE.

Delivered by the iconic Italian yacht builder in 2022, NORTHERN ESCAPE quickly became one of the most sought-after superyachts available for charter. Having earned a revered reputation for excellence in the Mediterranean, NORTHERN ESCAPE will now be available throughout Australia and The South Pacific under the continued command of Captain Sam Aldred.

“We are proud to represent such an iconic charter yacht that brings a unique quality to Australia,” comments Joachim Howard, Managing Director of Ocean Alliance. “NORTHERN ESCAPE epitomises the progressive design of a modern superyacht, and we look forward to using our destination expertise to working with the incredible team onboard to showcase the diverse cruising Australia has to offer.”

The main deck is a standout feature of NORTHERN ESCAPE, designed to set the stage for an unforgettable charter. The open aft deck seamlessly integrates a U-shaped sofa, sun loungers, daybeds, a teppanyaki bar and an infinity pool, all perfectly connected to the sea.

NORTHERN ESCAPE can accommodate up to 12 guests in a flexible five or six cabin layout, including a main-deck full-beam master suite with an office area, dressing rooms and his and her bathrooms. An additional room on the main deck provides even greater flexibility, with two fold-down pullman beds that can serve as an extra guest cabin or be converted into a wellness room for ultimate relaxation.

The rest of the accommodation is on the lower deck and includes two double cabins, and two twin convertibles with additional Pullman beds.

At the helm of NORTHERN ESCAPE is experienced Captain Sam Aldred, who brings a wealth of yachting knowledge and an infectious positive energy to his leadership role. Having travelled the world on yachts ranging from 25m – 85m, Sam returns home onboard NORTHERN ESCAPE to deliver unforgettable charter experiences in his backyard.

This is an incredible platform for luxury yacht adventures, with a staggering array of amenities that will help you to maximise your charter experience.

NORTHERN ESCAPE will be based in Cairns, North Queensland, the gateway to the unique Great Barrier Reef – the world’s most precious organism.  NORTHERN ESCAPE also welcomes enquiries throughout the East and West Coasts of Australia and into the South Pacific, including PNG, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands and Fiji. Charter rates start from AUD $287,000 per week.
