Last week, our intrepid veteran Charter Broker, Sue Gearan, headed south to report to our dear readers and clients on the best boats at the Miami Yacht Show (MYS). At the MYS’ new 2019 location, One Herald Plaza, between the Venetian and MacArthur causeways, Sue vetted beautiful and exciting charter yachts, met captains, crews and chefs (also beautiful and exciting), and took clients on board by appointment. Here’s some of what Sue wrote about a boat particularly worthy of note at the MYS.
120′ M/Y THE ROCK
This was my Best in Show and maybe one of the better charter yachts I’ve seen in a long time. Here’s why I mooned over this boat in Miami:
- An awesome use of space
- A fantastic layout for lounging & entertaining
- Excellent family boat – 2 families or multi-generation
- Top choice for Bahamas with the Scout tender for fishing
- Captain Luke and his team are top notch & he mentioned that
- The yacht & tender have top-rated stabilizers which make for a extremely comfortable ride on both
- Very relaxed feeling on board – in a good way
