London Boat Show 2013 Review, Part II

Following on from our first report from this years London Boat Show, Part II aims to round up the rest of the exhibition in terms of exciting new releases and charter destinations. We have already spoken very highly of the Predator 68 and San Remo Sunseeker models, but it would be incorrect to say that these were the only two yachts worth seeing.

There is always a lot of hype around the release of a luxury Italian product, in particular when it is from the exclusive Ferretti Group and Riva. The Iseo is designed as a ‘runabout’ and is the perfect vessel for those who love to cruise on lakes in style. Norberto Ferretti, chairman of the group states, “After the wooden classics like the Ariston and the Florida, which made the history of our shipyard in the smaller yacht range, Riva today has introduced another small yacht that encompasses the values that have made Riva the legend it is today: meticulous craftsmanship, uniqueness, elegance and painstaking attention to detail.” Are you looking to charter a classic Riva? Look no further than the beautiful Aquarama on Lake Garda, accommodating up to 7 guests for a luxury cruise. She has a great captain, who is very insightful, professional and hospitable, ensuring you have the very best day out possible.

The Best Way to enjoy the French Riviera!

Millions of tourists flock to the South of France every year for their summer family vacations. Graced with a beautiful climate, history, cuisine and attractions, the French Riviera has something for everyone, no matter what age! Many examples of film reviews choose to locate themselves between Nice and Cannes, due to the close proximity to the airport. However, St Tropez is the destination of choice for many for a luxurious day out, which causes horrendous traffic jams every year. One way to avoid this is to charter your own yacht for the day from Nice, Antibes or Cannes and you will be in St Tropez in just 90 minutes!

The Riviera from the water is a completely different sight and even more spectacular. You are free to choose your own itinerary and we can help to suggest the best places to stop and swim, to shop and recommend some of the best restaurants in the world. A Cannes Boat Charter should be an essential part of your holiday.

Two of the Best Cannes Luxury Day Charter Yachts for 2013!

It may only be 4 weeks until Christmas but you should really start thinking about your Summer vacations for 2013! The French Riviera and especially Cannes is a popular choice every year for tourists, thanks to its great style, weather and climate. Check out two of our favourite Luxury Day Charter Yachts for Summer 2013 below. RHINO is a stunning Riva Domino 86 and will definitely attract the attention of even the most discerning guests. She would be the perfect yacht to take you to Club 55 St Tropez where you can mingle with the stars at one of the hippest beach clubs in the world.

Alternatively, OUTSIDE EDGE IV is a beautiful, sleek and elegant Mangusta 72 motor yacht available for charter from Antibes and Cannes. This Luxury Crewed Mangusta is one of the finest on the market and appears almost brand new even though it is a little older. She has a great crew and would make the perfect yacht to take you to Villefranche and Monaco.

To find out more information on how to charter either of these two yachts, please enquire through the yacht page on our website (Links Above) or send an email to [email protected]. We would be delighted to help you organise a great day charter on both of these yachts for Summer 2013. Watch this space for the latest yachting news, gossip, destinations and news.
