YOU WILL ENJOY A DIFFERENT & SPECTACULAR VIEW EVERYDAY OF YOUR CHARTER VACATION
A yacht charter is a fantastic way to experience the best of the world’s destinations with tropical coastline, pristine white beaches, sparkling azure waters, vividly colored marine life, national parks, secluded bays or dynamic nightlife; the list is endless. A yacht charter allows you freedom and choice in some of the most spectacular locations around the world. The biggest yacht charter locations include the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Florida Keys, Bahamas – just to name a few.
The charm of a yacht charter vacation is unparalleled, but only if you get it right. Like all vacations, chartering requires a certain amount of planning and preparation to optimize success. It needs to be tailored specifically to you. This involves finding and organizing the yacht that best suits you, the location for you as an individual and also booking flights and other peripheral travel arrangements. A charter specialist must be knowledgeable in all these areas and must use their professional knowledge and experience to organize the best charter vacation.
The most important criteria is making sure that the crew and the guests are compatible. This can only be done if your agent knows the crews and the yachts. We travel to all the boat show around the world each year, inspecting the yachts and meeting with the crews.
If you have yachting experience yourself you may choose to charter a bareboat which you will skipper yourself. Crewed charter yachts offer to take care of this for you. Ranging in size from 50 foot all the way to 250ft and beyond, we have the ability to custom tailor the yacht and crew directly to your taste, choice of destination and budget. Creating a vacation that will never be surpassed by anything that you could do on land. There is something out there for everyone and every budget. You don’t have to be a rock star to afford this vacation. With the right boat, great crew and good conditions, a yacht charter vacation will be the time of your life!
Yacht Charter Basics
There are a number of varieties in chartering.
Bareboat – This is where you skipper the vessel yourself and cater yourself. This is recommended for those who have had a good amount of sailing experience/boating experience.
Crewed Charters – Here your yacht will come equipped with a Captain and usually a chef, on smaller yachts and more crew as you climb in yacht size. For Example. A 50 – 70ft yacht will have 2 – 3 crew onboard, While 70 – 100ft yachts will have 4 – 6 crew and so forth.
Sailing Charters – These are onboard yachts with sails. These yachts can be bareboat or crewed and we have large selection of each to offer. One can choose from a monohull sailboat or catamaran.
Catamaran VS Monohull – Personal preference plays a large role in your choice between a Catamaran and a traditional Monohull. While some purists wouldn’t dream of chartering a Catamaran, they do provide many features that make them a good and increasingly common choice for a variety of reasons. In general, Catamarans are easier to navigate in shallow water, provide great views from the spacious interiors, have an excellent sun deck/cockpit space, and are more comfortable in a number of ways. You don’t have to climb stairs to go inside, and you get more privacy because the cabins are separated from each other. Cats are far more stable at anchor than Monohulls
Luxury Motor Yacht / Power Boat Charters – You will have a crew onboard a motor yacht. With plush accommodation and all the toys, this vacation is one of the most sought after in the world. It is not uncommon to find a Luxury Yacht with hot tub, plasma screen TV with surround sound and satellite channels, Internet access, gourmet food served just as you like it, and an entire range of water sports including scuba, windsurfing, jet skiing and water skiing. In comparison to the cost of a land based vacation in a 5 Star hotel you will find that the cost of a motor yacht is very comparable. Especially when you consider that you have the privacy to boast of. The luxury of your own personal crew, including a chef that will prepare your meals to your preference and request, creates an environment that far outweighs anything else.
