Home comforts

Whether you’re above or below deck, all of our yachts boast added features to enhance the comfort of your holiday. All are equipped with an electric windlass to take the strain out of anchoring and, for keeping cool, we supply a bimini sunshade for the cockpit on all yachts. Many also have fans in the saloon and cabins.

Toilet/Shower Rooms
Depending on the size of your boat, you’ll find one or two toilet/shower rooms, also known in sailor speak as ‘heads’! All boats have a water tank(s) supplying hot and cold water.

Bed Linen
A complete set of bed linen is provided including sheets, pillows, duvets or blankets. Towels for showering are also provided.

Galley
Each galley (or kitchen area) has a two burner stove and grill/oven, engine driven refrigerator, sink, storage cupboards and a full range of cooking utensils, cutlery, crockery and glassware.

Additional features

• Don’t forget to bring your favorite music - all yachts have a Radio/CD Player

• Fancy cooking al fresco? Transom barbecues are provided in the Caribbean
