admin — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 20:24:47 +0000

In recent years, the direction of many bareboat charter fleets is to introduce more large-model sailboats. However, bigger isn’t always better, as evidenced by the new Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 32i.

Pure, fluid lines on the Sun Odyssey 32i make it a unique bareboat charter yacht. Architect, Philippe Briand, and the Jeanneau design team have created this cruising sailboat in keeping with Jeanneau’s values.

Jeanneau 32i

At sea on a Caribbean yacht charter holiday, bareboat sailors can savor the simplest pleasures of coastal cruising, whether as a keel boat or lifting keel with twin rudders. At anchor, 2 couples can easily stretch out in the generous cockpit of the Sun Odyssey 32i. On the interior, refined details in the cabins, head compartments, saloon, galley, and even the card table enhance barefoot charter comfort onboard.

Jeanneau has turbocharged their 32 foot model. This has been achieved by adding a taller rig, a deeper keel, and some racing hardware. The interior, a surprisingly spacious two cabin layout, remains untouched. The new sail charter 32 is equipped with the best hardware and a voluminous interior making the perfect balance between the fast designed hull and the exceptional comfort of this two couple yacht.

This yacht will suit any level of sailor, making it a fine choice for the simple point of sight sailing found on a Caribbean yacht charter or the more challenging legs encountered on a Mediterranean yacht charter adventure.

One of the newest bareboats on the market, this monohull is available in Tortola (British Virgin Islands, Caribbean), the Ionian (Greece, Eastern Mediterranean), the Sporades (Greece, Eastern Mediterranean), Gocek (Turkey, Eastern Mediterranean), Marmaris (Turkey, Eastern Mediterranean), Turgutreis (Turkey, Eastern Mediterranean), and Bodrum (Turkey, Eastern Mediterranean).

admin — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 13:24:07 +0000

For this vacation, you want to go on a sailing vacation, but you are being careful with the budget.

If you want to sail a yacht without hired crew members, you want to charter what is known as a, “bareboat.”

If you don’t have enough experience to sail it on your own, another way to sail is through skipper-only charters and flotillas.

On skippered charters, you rent the boat and you hire a skipper (provided by your bareboat yacht charter company, bareboat.com) to sail the chartered yacht for you. A main consideration in renting the boat will be the number of bedrooms (also known as cabins or staterooms) you will require to accommodate your guest count.

With a flotilla, a number of boats with hired captains sails together.

With a bareboat charter, you receive all the standard equipment to be comfortable and safe to sail the boat. Considered a self-catered floating villa, your yacht will have cabins, a lounge, a kitchen (galley), and an outdoor area.

Bareboat vacations are an adventure to last a lifetime.

Bareboat charters can be found in the United States US, Bahamas, Greece, Italy, Croatia, Spain, Turkey, and just about anywhere water is found! Whether you are on a honeymoon or looking for an adventure with family or friends, a bareboat charter, whether skippered or bareboat (self-sailed), is an adventure of a lifetime.

Basics of Bareboating

Have you ever dreamed about renting a bareboat and just sailing away?

You can do this on bareboat yacht charters!

Bareboats range from thirty to fifty feet in length. You can charter a catamaran (two hulls, very stable in the water and very roomy), monohull (one hull), or powerboat (boat powered by engines, not sails). These yachts come with everything you need to operate them, as well as kitchen utensils, bedding, and towels. Some charters provide you with a dinghy with motor at no charge.

Are you interested in a sailboat or a powerboat for your bareboat charter vacation?

A bareboat is a yacht that you sail yourself, or you can hire a captain (referred to as a captain only or skippered charter), if you wish.

While you are not required in the Caribbean or the United States to provide a certificate or license to charter a boat, you will have to demonstrate experience and skill (called a “check out sail”) to be allowed to operate the yacht by yourself – otherwise you will require (and will have to pay to hire) a captain to assist you.

Your bareboat yacht charter company will ask you critical basic questions in order to select the perfect boats from which to choose for your vacation. Those questions include whether you want a sailboat or a powerboat, the destination in which you want to charter, the number of guests in your charter party, amenities required (like air-conditioning), and budget.
