“A sport yacht isn’t driven — it’s mastered. And with the right crew, it becomes an extension of your will upon the sea.”
I’m Elian Elizando, a captain with over 15 years of experience sailing the waters of Ibiza, Formentera, and the Western Mediterranean. I’ve commanded luxury superyachts, classic sailboats, and catamarans. But if there’s one experience that sharpens the senses and demands absolute precision, it’s captaining a crewed sport yacht.

Sport yachts are not for everyone. They’re for those who understand that sailing is also a statement of character. With aggressive lines, high-performance engines, and razor-sharp maneuverability, these vessels are built for those who want to feel the sea — without ever losing control.
And without a professional crew, even the most advanced hull falls short. Because at speeds over 30 knots, every second counts, and every decision matters.
As a captain, my priority is to combine power with safety. To achieve that, I surround myself with professionals who can read the sea, anticipate, and react with precision:
First officers trained in advanced maneuvers, who understand how each hull behaves under pressure.
Onboard engineers who constantly monitor engine performance and navigation systems.
Assistants and stewards who deliver discreet service, even in the heat of action.
A crewed sport yacht is a symphony of precision and trust. And only then can these machines reach the performance they were born to deliver.
Ibiza isn’t just parties — it’s a demanding nautical arena. Shifting currents, busy maritime traffic, and tight coves require sharp maneuvering. Sport yachts find their perfect stage here:
Cruising between islets at medium speed
Sprinting to Formentera in just 20 minutes
Showcasing raw power with total control
As a captain, there’s no better feeling than seeing the owner smile as the hull planes over calm waves at sunset. That only happens when your crew moves as one.
At Amoyachts, we select sport yachts with both soul and substance. From Sunseeker to Pershing models, each vessel is equipped with cutting-edge navigation systems and crews certified for their experience and reflexes.
“Sailing fast is easy. Doing it with elegance and mastery — that’s an art.”
If you want to experience the sea with both intensity and control, a crewed sport yacht is your starting line. And I’ll be at the helm to ensure your journey blends thrill, style, and absolute confidence.
