The Summer’s here and the time is right, for yachting with your peeps. Yacht charters as summer family getaways are the ultimate in customized private adventures. Your boat is your floating hotel. You’re not tied to the schedule or destinations of a cruise ship. You can specify your food, drink, activities, itineraries, expeditions and experiences.
Croatia was not mad that I hadn’t visited in 7 years. In fact, she looked fantastic and welcomed me with open arms. This newly-appreciated vacation mecca has grown in so many impressive ways that I leaped for joy when I saw her this May. Rediscovering Split and the surrounding islands was a grand adventure and a grand surprise!
The Classic 49′ Motor Yacht CAROUSEL is the perfect getaway yacht from Boston to Marblehead (or vice versa) for a romantic overnight for two. Her pretty sheer line turns heads. With a dark blue hull and enough teak to uphold traditions, this is a modern classic with well-proven construction and 21st century comfort.
Congratulations to all the participants and winners of the much-anticipated Chef’s Competition with the timely theme: Sustainable Luxury. Our fine friends at the 2019 Newport Charter Yacht Show put on another superb event this year. Our thanks go out to everyone who made the show possible – the participating yachts, the show sponsors, the vendors, the American Yacht Charter Association – and especially our host, the Newport Shipyard, and their Marketing Director, Veronica Brown.
When Michael and I got down to the really planning his vacation, I knew it was (understandably) hard for him to wrap his head around the whole thing that is a yacht charter. It is a big expense and many charterers save a long time to take such a trip, so I did not take this task lightly. I knew if a friend had the faith in me to move forward and book a boat for him and his family, that I better make sure they’re on the right one, going to the right destination with the right crew.
The boating season has begun. Driving on the highways and city streets, you will see sail and motor yachts everywhere being pulled along on trailers by their owners or boatyards.
In honor of the beginning of boating season in New England, we have selected 6 outstanding all-inclusive yacht charters in 3 categories for summer getaways: Fab Family Yachts, Fishing Aficionados, Foodies Wanted.
In the heart of “the other Caribbean” in Belize…you will find wellness and retreat at sea.
This past January, I had the opportunity to sail out of Belize City on the 46ft Fountaine Pajot catamaran TRANQUILO. This beautiful and aptly-named yacht was our wellness and yoga retreat in Belize. While I may not have perfected my yoga headstand on this fam trip, I can confirm that it’s better to practice yoga on the forward deck of your private yacht than on a paddleboard! Not only did I rediscover the best sailing within this “2nd greatest barrier reef system”, I met the finely-tuned team of yacht crew, dock staff, office and Belize in-house concierge service.
This May and the first week of June, on Amalfi Coast sailings, all OMBRE BLU3 guests will enjoy a special complimentary Tasting Menu + Wine Pairing at the Two Star Michelin restaurant – La Torre del Saracino, with Chef Gennaro Esposito. Stunning views to Naples and Mt Vesuvio will heighten the experience!
Papua, New Guinea is one of those exotic destinations that beckons to adventurous souls looking for the greatest diversity of marine life in the world for divers. For our Papua New Guinea yacht charter, we are featuring a luxury way to travel the “Coral Triangle” for a diving experience on a private yacht. The 114ft New Zealand-built M/Y SPIRIT, designed by the award-winning Bakewell-White Yacht Design boutique studio, is not your typical dive liveaboard!
