Following on from yesterday’s post on Easter in the Bahamas, AMITIE is the perfect yacht to take you there.
The luxurious 130’ Westport completed her interior refit by Nora Gugel of A La Mer and was launched into the charter market this past spring. Her elegant interior showcases a spacious salon with a large seating area where soft, neutral tones compliment her satin mahogany paneling. Guests can enjoy formal dining surrounded by colorful accents which evoke a splash of the tropics and embody a modern yet comfortable feel. If alfresco dining is preferred, you can choose from the covered aft-deck or the relaxing bridge deck where you may also take a dip in the Jacuzzi. Her partially shaded sun deck offers protection from the elements and features a bar and barbecue, along with wrap around sofas and a large sun pad for the sun worshippers in the group.
Motor yacht AMITIE offers comfortable accommodations for up to 11 guests in five well-appointed staterooms including the desirable en-suite master stateroom on the main deck.
She is a versatile yacht ideal for island hopping, entertaining family and friends or for couples looking to escape on a romantic getaway in pure style and comfort. Her knowledgeable charter crew, lead by Captain Adam Huemoller along with the award winning Chef Tonya Bohn, is sure to make this the yachting holiday a vacation of a lifetime!

The Myanmar tourism industry continues to develop. Last month, the Myanmar government announced that it will launch an e-visa system for people arriving to Yangon International Airport. For people looking to do some traveling in Burma, then heading to Kawthaung for a yacht charter in the Mergui, this is a big improvement. Hopefully this system will expand to other points of entry as well in the future.
For those looking for “final frontier” sailing destinations, they don’t come any better than the Mergui Archipelago of Myanmar – 800 uninhabited islands almost untouched by humans, clear blue waters and not a footprint in the sand. This truly is one of the world’s most unspoilt destinations. You can sail for days and not see another yacht, although more and more luxury yachts are making Myanmar part of their schedule.
The amazing KERI LEE III will be there in October and November this year.
If you like historic charter yachts, these two classic yachts from the 1940’s, CALISTO and MAID MARION II, are based in Phuket, and available for charters in Myanmar.
The best sailing season for Myanmar is November to April each year, so be sure to look at Boatbooking’s selection of yachts for charter in the Mergui Archipelago. Stay tuned for more yachts available for charter in Myanmar.
