BOAT BITS:
‘Happy B’ our own 2008 Delphia 40ft sailing yacht is doing really well and enjoying being out in the winter months with her coastal skipper and Yachtmaster students onboard. We always get extremely positive feedback from students and charter guests. In the later spring into summer, ‘Happy B’ is the perfect charter sailing yacht and is looking forward to a busy season.
‘Smiley’ is also keeping busy with the Yachtmasters who are preparing for their motor assessments during the October to April season. ‘Smiley’ is a great boat for a comfortable day charter, special event or long island cruise providing both spacious accommodation and high levels of comfort onboard.
‘Bambu’ is our fast 7.5m RIB used for the ‘tender driving licences’ at Powerboat Level II course level, then off chasing the regattas for the racing season before lazing in the sunshine in a quiet little cala whilst her guests enjoy sunbathing and swimming. What a life!
‘Up and Down’ joins us for 2009: a slightly older yacht to be added to our fleet but she offers four cabin accommodation in a 44ft yacht. Sailing well and in very good condition, ‘Up and Down’ is a great boat for a group of friends or larger family to enjoy a private charter in the Med.
‘Imagine’ is our Beneteau 57 sailing yacht and she is immaculate: providing luxury charter holidays and day charters for special events. Treat yourself!
‘Easy Rider’ our new Voyage 440 catamaran rounds up our fleet for this year: spacious, stable and comfortable accommodation in four cabins, each with own private facilities. Chartering or learing to sail on a sailing ‘cat’ is a great experience. The space still surprises me, and boy, can she sail well! Get a group of you together and enjoy!
