Posted by Trish Cronan | Under Catamaran Yacht Charter, Family Yacht Charter Specials, Family Yacht Vacation Monday Mar 18, 2013
This 47′ BVI charter catamaran, Green Flash, has the ideal crew for a Virgin Islands family yacht charter vacation. Captain Arthur and Chef Sherri fully embrace the Caribbean sailing lifestyle and have cruised with their own three children (now grown up) onboard. So they know what it’s like to be with kids 24/7. They enjoy them and know how to keep them entertained. I loved visiting with them this past November. They are warm, hospitable, engaging, genuinely interested in others, and just downright “NICE.” Captain Arthur is also an accomplished musician – nothing like relaxing under the Caribbean star-flooded sky… with the strumming of his acoustic guitar. And they know how to sweeten the deal – one child under 14 sails for free with Read more…

Actually, it is not just charter yachts – it’s any yacht, boat, ship, scow, barge, tanker, tug, freighter, or canoe. I could ask Wikipedia, but I have a fleet of charter yacht crews who are used to spinning all kinds of yarns week after week. For this answer, my source is the veteran crew, Randy and Shelly Tucker on the luxury charter yacht, Three Moons, which charters in the BVI and USVI. Here’s what they have to say: “A yacht is called a “she” because there is always a great deal of bustle around her; there is usually a gang of men about, she has a waist and stays… She shows her topsides, hides her bottom and when coming into port, always heads for the Read more…
