New for the 08 Season     Many choose the addition of a "Captain Accompanied Bareboat Charter ", this type of charter is perfect for those who may or may not have the ability to sail, or desire to sail all the time, to function as captain and operator of the vessel 24/7.   Or Perhaps:

* Been a while since you've sailed or bareboated last.  It would be nice to get back in the grove slowly!

* It's also for those that may not be familiar with the Southern New England Coast,  a yacht this size,  local currents & tides or the best destinations to visit.

* Maybe it would be nice to have someone else totally responsible for the yacht 24/7,  so you can really unwind, relax and enjoy this trip with friends or family.  
 
*  Imagine no worries or concerns while at anchor, while sleeping, or away from the yacht for extended periods!
 
*  Having someone there to assist with everything from meals, hor d'oeuvres, grilling, serving, cleaning, anchoring, docking, transportation and everything else.  Someone that can help make your vacation better, more relaxing, enjoyable and FUN!

*  The ability to have the yacht meet you or depart from alternate preferred locations of your choosing.

*  No need for the initial detailed yacht orientation or security deposit requirements.

Please Note:    It's still your charter, you can make the plans and choose destinations, your captain is only there to assist when needed, requested or appropriate and to make your cruise as care free and fun as possible.  Meet the Captain.
