About this Yacht
Historically, this yacht was the Royal Yacht of the GRIMALDI Family of Monaco, built by and for Princess Grace and Prince Ranier III. SPIRIT L was originally built by CCYD in Venice, Italia, in 1984 as ‘STALCA II’ to the order of HH Prince Ranier III of Monaco and his American actress wife Grace Kelly for sailing with their three children: Stefanie, Albert and Caroline. From their combined names, came the boat name STALCA. Since our acquisition and subsequent complete control of SPIRIT L, we have full reconditioned and painted her 26mt (85′) hull to the deep midnight blue.
Call us or email us for more information about SPIRIT L. You can reach our office at 1.941.914.1187 or Email Us. We’ll find a charter that fits your style, budget, and interests.
