Ocean Independence sends word that the 120-foot Palmer Johnson motoryacht Natalia has dropped her weekly base rate for the rest of the summer season in the Mediterranean.

During the low-season months of June and September, the weekly base rate has been reduced by €10,000. During the high-season months of July and August, Natalia's weekly base rate is now €12,000 lower. These are discounts of more than 10 percent, making the new weekly base rates €88,000 to €98,000 depending on the charter dates.

I was onboard Natalia about a year ago for what I recall was a very nice luncheon aboard the modern-looking yacht. She was built in 2005 and most recently refit in 2011. One of her most impressive features is her speed, which maxes out at 27 knots.

I learned during my tour that while Natalia is advertised as taking eight guests, one of the cabins is actually a bottom-deck foyer that converts to a cabin when a pocket door slides shut. The captain told me that the crew feel Natalia is ideal for six guests if all are adults, or for eight guests only if two of them are children.

Any reputable charter broker can tell you more about Natalia or help you book a week aboard in the Mediterranean at the newly announced discount rates.
