                                                                       Quality Yacht

We know that choosing the right yacht is the key to success… yours and ours.  Repeat clients represent over 60% of our business. 

We personally ensure the quality of the yachts we recommend by yearly inspections of both the yachts and facilities.  We also study all our clients' reviews and post these reviews on our website for all our clients to see.

Our information is current and accurate and we only recommend the yachts that we determine are suitable for an enjoyable and successful charter.  

Attention to Detail

We realize the importance of a well-organized charter!  Our Expert Brokers stay in constant communication with the charter company or yacht crew to ensure the details of your charter are being handled and prepared for properly.  Through our experience we know all the right questions and the small, but very important particulars to address.  

Our goal is for your vacation planning to be effortless and worry-free!  

Convenience

Our user-friendly website enables you to browse an extensive selection of yachts.  You can either call us at 1-800-382-9666 or email an Availability Request Form and we will go to work for you.

We respond promptly by phone or email with availability and complete details of several yachts that match your charter dates.  

Feel free to call or email anytime you have a question or need a recommendation.  Our expert brokers are usually available from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm, 7 days a week.  Plus, we give our clients the option to connect to our cell phones through our regular phone number for emergencies 24 hours/day.  

Price & Other Services

Our fee is paid by the yacht owner or company. We do not own any yachts, our recommendations are completely objective, entirely focused on our clients' interests. We have built our reputation on providing prompt, friendly, accurate and professional service.

Due to the large volume of charter vacations we arrange each year, we are able to offer a complete "one-stop" service. We can help with discount airfare, comprehensive trip insurance and give good hotel advice.
