Select Yachts has just welcomed two boats to its charter fleet, and one is a brand-new build that will be based in the Grenadines.
The 52-foot Lagoon sailing catamaran Freedom is scheduled to be delivered to Grenada in early July, after which she will become available for charter throughout St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Freedom has three queen-bed cabins, making her an ideal option for three adult couples wishing to charter together and split the bill. Freedom also has every state-of-the-art feature that one would expect on a new build of her size, including satellite telephone and underwater lights (shown in the photograph at right). The crew includes a PADI-certified scuba team who can help clients interested in doing some diving.
The weekly base rate to charter Freedom has yet to be set.
Also new to the Select Yachts charter fleet is the 65-foot Fountaine Pajot sailing catamaran Victoria. She is a 2001 build with three cabins, two with queen-size beds and one with a slightly smaller bed that tapers at the foot. Victoria will be based in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, with charter availability throughout the northern Caribbean.
The weekly base rate to charter Victoria ranges from $12,000 to $16,000 for two to six guests and includes many typical expenses, such as food and ship's bar. Rates can be further reduced by 10 percent right now as part of a special offering, if charter clients are interested in dining ashore for three lunches and three dinners during the week.
Any reputable charter broker can tell you more about Freedom or Victoria, or help you book a week onboard in the Caribbean. |

CSO Yachts sends word that there has been a charter cancellation aboard the 103-foot Falcon motoryacht Ylang Ylang. She previously was booked solid from mid-June through early July, but now she is once again available from June 29 through July 8.
Ylang Ylang will be dropping off another charter on June 25 in Bonifacio, Corsica, so it's possible to fill the cancellation dates with a charter that begins in Corsica with no delivery fees. Typically, in order to charter in Corsica, clients must pay to move the yacht from more common home ports in the South of France.
Ylang Ylang is a 2007 build that was most recently refit in 2011. She accommodates 10 to 12 guests in five cabins, including a master and VIP on the bottom deck as well as a second VIP forward on the main deck. The remaining two cabins have twin beds and one bunk-style Pullman berth apiece.
The yacht is outfitted for water-sports fun, with a Yamaha Jet Ski, a Cayago F7 Seabob, water skis and wakeboards sized for adults and children, and inflatable toys for towing behind the tender.
The lowest weekly base rate to charter Ylang Ylang is €48,500. Any reputable charter broker can tell you more or help you book a week onboard this summer in the West Mediterranean. |

Ocean Independence tells me that the 106-foot CCYD sailing yacht Adesso has charter availability in Sicily with no delivery fees starting June 12.
Typically, in order to charter in Sicily, clients must pay the cost of moving the yacht there from more common home ports in the South of France. The deal aboard Adesso likely will save the charter client several thousand euro.
Adesso is a 106-foot sailing yacht that was built in 1996 for a yachtsman who had a 40-year racing career. The yacht has sailed in the waters of the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Indian Ocean, and Pacific Ocean, always being maintained for top-performance racing and comfort. Her last serious refit was in 2006, though the owner has continued to invest in improvements for charter. As an example, a new custom tender was brought onboard ahead of the current summer charter season.
Any reputable charter broker can tell you more about Adesso or help you book her with no delivery fees this summer in Sicily. Her weekly base rate is €35,000 for eight guests. |

Sunreef Yachts Charter sends word that the new 60-foot Sunreef powercatamaran Forever is now accepting inquiries for charters in Mexico. Forever is the first catamaran that Sunreef has delivered to Mexico, and she will be available for charter there year-round.
The home port for Forever will be Isla Mujeres, which is about eight miles off the coast of Cancun. Charter guests booking a week onboard will also have access to the Hotel Villa Rolandi, a spa and beach club on the same island.
Forever accommodates eight guests in four cabins. Her lowest weekly base rate is $34,000. The photograph at right is of her sistership, another 60-foot Sunreef powercatamaran, since Forever has yet to complete brochure photography.
Any reputable charter broker can tell you more about Forever or help you book a week onboard in Mexico. |
