Let us help you in making your selection. We are certain that we can find a yacht or ship to fit your exact needs and budget.

"Monohulls" All inclusive to include meals, snacks, full bar, fuel, etc. The yacht of your choice will have a captain and chef aboard. Larger yachts sometimes carry extra crew. They will cater to your wants and wishes. Each meal will be prepared with your preferences in mind. You may be involved with the operation of the yacht or simply lie back and let the crew handle the yacht. You decide! It's a great vacation!

"Itinerary" You can go anywhere in the world that a ship, boat, or barge can maneuver safely.

"Catamarans" These are roomy and stable charter yachts. If you haven't tried a vacation on a "cat" you are missing a great adventure. Large decks and cockpits to lounge in and dinning while able to watch the sun set.

"Power Yachts" Many of these are more comfortable than your own home. Luxury at the cost of a first-class vacation.

"Captain Only" The captain will assist you in the operation of the yacht and instruct you on your sailing technique if desired. You provision and cook meals as well help clean-up.

"Dive Information" We know the right dive boats and monohulls to chose from.

"Other Types of Passenger Vessels" 

BARGE: Small river boats that are self powered. Generally they are very deluxe and serve Gourmet food.  Cabins are small, but comfortable. They are very popular in Europe. A great way to see a country at a very leisurely pace.

CARGO/PASSENGER: These are ocean going ships that have priority cargo and can accommodate about, 100 passengers. There are very few left in the world.

FERRYLINER: these are the large ferries that cover Europe like a fog. They are sailing from every port, every day. A great way to travel thru Europe. They are very modem with: discos, shops, lounges, super- markets, deluxe restaurants. They are inexpensive and allow you to sleep in a lounge chair or curt up on deck. Small cabins are available. There are some sailing from Washington to Alaska.

FREIGHTER: The romantic and cheap way to travel that you have read about all of your life. Today the big Cargo ships are very modem and ate hot too excited about, passengers. The price is no longer cheap. The per day cost is close to the average cruise ship. You must be in good physical condition. A doctors permit if over 60. There are only 12 passengers allowed. This means, no doctor on board. There is nothing to do but read and play cards. They do not sail on a schedule, you must be very flexible on time. Bookings are hard to get and must be made long in advance.

MINI CRUISERS: These are the ultra modern little ships that sail into those places a big ship can't get into. They are finally becoming popular in America. They are shallow draft vessels and can get light up on the beach. Many of them have a bow ramp that drops down on the shore.  I find the food to be very good and well served. The entertainment is generally obtained locally at the ports of call. They provide a marvelous way to leisurely see our coastal areas and waterways.

PASSENGER SHIPS: These are vessels whose main function is to carry passengers. They have facilities for overnight accommodations for the passengers. They are generally called Cruise Ships.

RIVER BOAT: These are tile shallow draft passenger vessels that sail on the rivers of the world. They have cabins for passengers and travel overnight or longer. Of course we all know that a REAL RIVER BOAT is the kind we have seen in the movies and that Mark Twain sailed on those beautiful boats with the big paddle wheels on the stern. There are only 5 of these in the USA, only the Delta Queen and the Mississippi Queen have overnight cabin service.
