Thursday, February 16. 2012Hypnautic Charter Yacht updates![]() Testimonials We had the best vacation of our lives on HYPNAUTIC. What a beautiful vessel..comfortable and smooth. Leo and Amy did such a great job making sure we were safe, comfortable and head everything we wanted..making it a very relaxing vacation. We were introduced to incredible new foods while aboard..Amy prepared some amazing local dishes and plated all of her creations with beautiful garnish. Each meal seemed to top the last. Eight days just wasn't enough! November 12-20, 2011. HYPNAUTIC was memorable from the moment we came aboard. Leo and Amy anticipate your every need. More gracious hosts cannot be found. Leo and his puzzles..Amy and her amazing food..including her sensitivity and extra preparation to accommodate a vegetarian in our group. A full moon party, great snorkeling, blue skies and clear water are just a few of the things we enjoyed experiencing. We look forward to our "2nd time"! December 6-13, 2011 The food was simply incredible and the kindness, hospitality and care for our comfort and attention to every detail made it a holiday beyond compare. HYPNAUTIC was a dream. The boat was immaculate and well stocked. Leo and Amy are incredible hosts and new friends. Amy understood we are discerning diners. In regard to meal prep, we upped what in Olympic diving is called 'degree of difficulty' with Elyse's gluten allergy. Amy earned Straight A's nonetheless. December 18-26, 2011. Leo and Amy gave us spectacular 7 nights and 8 days of heaven. Their competence and attention allowed us to completely relax, enjoy nature and bond as a family. The charter went beyond our expectations. Captain Leo and Chef Amy could not have been more accommodating..so pleasant, calm, funny and interesting. This was our first charter and I know it will not be our last given the joyous time we had. We will be back! December 27-January 3, 2012 What an amazing experience. Leo and Amy are tremendous hosts- totally accommodating, generous and kind. They anticipated our wants/needs in a way that no other place/trip in our experience has. Leo is the best captain- knowledgeable about all local sites, and excellent sailor and all around fabulous guy. He put together a fantastic itinerary understanding exactly what we were looking for. Amy is a complete magician in the kitchen- how she manages to produce restaurant quality (in taste and presentation) in a galley that size it beyond us. Every day was a new adventure from snorkeling to water-skiing to cocktailing ( a lot ..thanks to Leo's tasty concoctions). Leo and Amy were like family at the end. WE look forward to staying in touch as they were sincerely great people who really cared that we had a wonderful time The boat was spotless and very spacious. January 7-14, 2012.

Thursday, February 16. 2012updates from charter yacht Green Flash![]() We wanted to send a quick note about what’s new with Green Flash. The biggest news is Green Flash now has Air Conditioning. And for water toy’s, we purchased two new Naish Stand Up Paddle Boards and a Delta Blaster tube for towing the kids. They are both turning out to be a real hit with the guests. Also, if you have clients that love to sail, the Catana’s are legendary sailing yachts. Guests love to sail the boat and they are amazed how fast and responsive Green Flash is, often hitting over 11 knots, always big smiles from the helm. And Sherri has been busy as well adding some additional creative menu dishes. The guests are loving them! I added a guest comment from our New Years Charter that they sent to their broker below. Please check out our updated web site, www.yachtgreenflash.com we added an Arthur’s music tab. His music is available on Itunes, Amazon and Pandora Internet Radio. “Hi Dennis, I just emailed some pics from our New Years Trip on the Green Flash. We had the most amazing family trip. The Green Flash is a beautiful boat in great condition. We felt very comfortable with our accommodations and loved sailing to a new fun place every morning. Arthur and Sherri were great hosts. Expert sailors, so hospitable and welcoming. They had great islands and activities picked out for our family, and Sherri's cooking was healthy, delicious and creative. Really over the top. We felt very spoiled all week and would go again in heartbeat. Highly recommended.” My web page on Green Flash Green Flash takes up to 5 guests, at a rate between $11,000 and $13,500 for 7 nights, on a 47' Catana Contact Kerry (the email Queen) for more information or call Chad 1-888-988-0590 or 778-871-3000 Tweet Thursday, February 16. 2012Charter Yacht Victoria- Showing for brokers in Road town Tonight

All these pictures below were taken in St Thomas recently... Monohulls are excellent value, with you being able to charter a large luxury monohull for the cost of a reasonable size catamaran. I actually LOVE the wide areas in these Irwins, and the large cabins, which you do not get in the catamarans trying to fit more cabins into the space. I don't have to say that the varnish is also gorgeous. ![]() ![]() *Wide, spacious decks & covered cockpit with easy water-access and aft seating *Generous cabins with custom fitted berths and private bathrooms with luxury amenities ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() *Four comfortable overstuffed double beds and/or twin bunk cabin available upon request ![]() *Over sized fresh water tanks replenished by a 38 gallon per hour water maker *Full Yacht Air Conditioning and/or Large opening hatches over each berth *Extra side ports and cabin fans for cooling sea breezes *AT&T Wi-Fi internet connection at most BVI/USVI anchorages *Full wet bar with ice maker ![]() *Elegant Award-winning dining in the main salon for up to 8 guests and al fresco dining on deck for up to 6 guests ![]() *Three Moons "Sea Spa" pampering upon request with a licensed, experienced professional- How this girl manages to do Sea Spa treatments along with everything else she does, I will never know.

Sunday, February 12. 2012Ocean Jedi- Charter Yacht Review
I had a charter group in early January onboard Ocean Jedi, which they really enjoyed. Denise was kind enough to send a couple pictures...
![]() We had an amazing time!! The boat was spectacular and Frank and Denise made the trip extra special. (The only thing missing was a boat cat.) We wish we could stay another weeki and plan to return as soon as we can. Thank you for the wonderful vacation. XO Love Lori, Mike, Kevin and Catie ![]() **** Previous Post on Ocean Jedi A bit of a newsletter from Denise and Ocean Jedi! ![]() ![]() My Recent blog entry on Ocean Jedi..and her great specials...which, I have already booked one charter under her special offers below..lets go for more *** I just spent an hour editing a post on the Charter Yacht Ocean Jedi and showcasing the great specials that they have going on that are quite time sensitive. Apparently too long for my web browser and it disappeared when I tried to preview it. AAAARRRGGGHHHH. I am sure this post will not be nearly as good, but lets start all over again. The yacht is Ocean Jedi. It is a 2009 58' (with a beam of 29'!) that takes up to 6 guests. It is a lot of boat for some introductory prices. Their normal rate for fully crewed charters, 7 nights is between $14,500 and $17,500. I am not sure I personally get the whole Star Trek Theme, but up to their willy wooker green drinks (or whatever they were called at the dock party) from another planet they had it going on... ![]() These are only valid for the first ten charters booked for this season, and do not include the high value holiday weeks. All inclusive rates for 7 nights for 4 guests is $11,640.00 A captain only rate (plus all expenses) is $7500.00 These are both incredible deals and will not last long. Frank and Denis Fox are your hosts onboard.. They are both Captains and Dive Instructors.. ![]() This yacht has many amenities going for it. They have all king sized beds, with nice windows, they provide all toiletries, the heads are large with separate showers, and there are TV's in all the cabins. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The yacht has all the interior amenities you could want, from icemakers, lots of generators to run the A/C's, Trash Compacters... ![]() ![]() A large cockpit.. ![]() ![]() A fly Bridge... ![]() Fishing Gear... ![]() 2 stand up paddle boards, 2 kayaks, and lots of assorted other toys.Although with only a 12' dinghy with a 15 hp don't be expecting to do any water skiing! ![]() ![]() ![]() With two dive instructors, 12 tanks and a dive compressor, they are a dive boat as well... they might even get an award for the cutest dressed up toys! ![]() They ARE open for Xmas (at normal rates) and I don't think these ten weeks will be open for long so don't wait...Call me at 734-716-0678 or 284-499-2756.

"Foxy Lady" can accommodate 8 people in four spacious air-conditioned double cabins each with its own separate washroom and shower. Each cabin has large hull windows so that you can enjoy your surroundings from every part of the boat.

This boat is well traveled, it seems like only yesterday I put up an entry about their summer plans chartering in the Grenadines! ![]() Good Medicine is sailing St Vincent & Grenadines August, September and October. Here is a sample itinerary: Day 1 St George's, Grenada (spend first night at Port Louis Marina in St George's) Explore the most beautiful town in the Caribbean, St George's. This is the heart of The Spice Island with a fascinating open market, waterfront restaurants and historical landmarks. 20 nm Day 2 Rhonde Island, Grenada This is a very secluded spot off the regular route where you can simply relax away from it all with great snorkeling that is rarely visited. 14 nm Hillsborough & Tyrell Bay, Carriacou (Grenada) {customs check out} 7 nm Day 3 Petite Martinique, Grenada, or Petite St Vincent, SVG These quaint islands are part of a large reef that is gorgeous and offers great snorkeling. Take a stroll through the village on Petite Martinique or visit the resort on Petite St Vincent. 5 nm Day 4 Union Island, SVG This island has it all: a shark pool, an open market, restaurants, trails and hiking. Happy Island is a must for the best rum punch sundowner in the Grenadines. 7 nm Day 5 Tobago Cays, SVG Just a short sail away and you are in the amazing atoll of Tobago Cays. Fabulous snorkeling, diving, beaches and vistas that you will fall in love with. This is our favorite spot in the Caribbean. 5 nm Salt Whistle Bay, Mayreau, SVG 7 nm Canouan, SVG 13 nm Day 6 Mustique, SVG This is the island of the rich and famous where you can visit Basil's bar and see who walks in. Horseback riding, spas, beautiful palm tree lined beaches and more. 8 nm Friendship Bay, Bequia, SVG 7 nm Day 7 Admiralty Bay, Bequia, SVG (can take ferry to St Vincent airport) Very popular with cruising yachtsmen, Bequia has a charm all to itself. It's great fun to stroll the waterfront path visiting the restaurant, bars and shops on the way as waves lap at you feet. See the local's colorful wooden boats on the beaches and out sailing in the bay. Be sure to browse the model boat building shop and the local craft stores. Well...somewhat..They were chosen for Quebec Lotto to shoot their new commercial on. Being a Canadian I could make several jokes but I will refrain "We're very excited that Good Medicine has been chosen and chartered to shoot the new Quebec Lotto commercial. In fact we're on location right now in the BVI, making a few modifications to allow for better camera angles, and filming will be later this week! We hope to get a video link to the final product and will share it with you when available." ![]() Good Medicine offers several specials, with a 5% discount this winter, to a 10% discount for any charters within 60 days..as well as half board rates and offering continuing education credit courses for Physicians!
