Horizon Yacht Charters Opening New Base in St Vincent

Canadian Yacht Charters

Horizon Yacht Charters announces the opening of their latest yacht charter base in St Vincent and the Grenadines. Located at the redeveloped Blue Lagoon Marina the new base will serve clients who seek to cruise the unspoilt Grenadines. The base will open on 1st October 2014 with a fleet of monohull and catamarans ranging from 37 to 51 feet in length. Luxury crewed yachts as well as bareboat charters will be offered.
 

St Vincent is a stunning mountainous island covered in lush tropical rain forest. St Vincent boasts verdant botanical gardens, waterfalls and a rich history. Blue Lagoon Marina is very conveniently located a few minutes from the airport, Kingstown and tourist amenities. The marina is an ideal location to start charter being only an hour and a half’s sail from Bequia, one of the most sought after locations in the Grenadines. Blue Lagoon is also ideally located for a one way charter start from St Vincent to Grenada, where Horizon Yacht Charters long standing base at True Blue Bay Resort is situated.

 
Flight connections are particularly well suited for one way charters via Barbados, St Lucia or Grenada and private charter flights are a particularly useful alternative to scheduled services.

 
St Vincent Base director James Pascall stated:  “We are delighted to be adding St Vincent to the Horizon family of bases. The Grenadines are one of the great yacht cruising areas in the World and we will now have a charter base located at each end, offering our clients even more options and flexibility for their sailing vacations with Horizon Yacht Charters.”

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.
