POTW: Tony Castro Dreamboat

POTW Dreamboat

May 23, 2024

Here’s a stunning Photo of the Week from Tony Castro. We think of Tony as an almost-Canadian. He was CS Yachts’ designer for years and spent a lot of time in Brampton – many of you likely still enjoy his CS 30, CS34 and others. That’s the Canadian angle but Tony was born in Portugal and today he is based in Hamble near Southampton UK where is studio creates renowned designs including some very sexy superyachts.

This design, named Perennial, is planned for 2026 and if your new boat budget is €65,000,000 or so she could be yours. The boat headlined this month’s Spring newsletter. The second picture illustrates the ‘beach club’ easily accessed from the lower deck cabins.

Your Photo of the Week.  Well, we are not expecting a million-euro superyacht, but perhaps some pets on board, kids on water toys or a beautiful port. The pHoto of the Week can be anything you like as long as you take the shiot from or around your boat.  Just send the pics along to onboard@kerrwil.com and please put POTW in the subject line.

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise

By Zuzana Prochaska

I’ve been to Tahiti seven times—six on charter and once as crew for a couple of yachties. Over the 25 years that I’ve been visiting, it’s changed dramatically. Yet, inexplicably, it has also stayed the same.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
