EMOTION – THE Luxury Charter Yacht for a Family Charter in the Mediterranean in Summer 2014

Recently, Cordy and Tom from the Boatbookings team were fortunate enough to visit EMOTION, a striking and impressive 43m CRN motor yacht.

Emotion Main Image

After stepping onto the yacht and entering the main saloon, a feeling of opulence and warmth is immediately apparent. Her interior styling is homely and comfortable creating a feeling of space seldom found on a yacht of her size. This feeling of space continues after climbing her wide staircases up to the third and most impressive sun deck. Once on the top deck, guests will be spoilt with several comfortable lounging areas, a bar, barbecue and a jacuzzi. If the midday Mediterranean sun becomes too strong, there are two large and movable sun parasols to provide guests with some welcome shade.

Relax and enjoy the view!

Moving down to the main deck, guests will find an impressive wooden outside dining table with seating for 12, completely private and not visible from the quayside. After dark the cosy sky lounge with generous and comfortable seating options doubles as a cinema room with surround sound and 60? plasma screen, perfect for a family movie nights.

Her five well proportioned and tastefully appointed cabins provide accommodation that will more than satisfy any discerning guest looking for a home away from home. The real feature of the master cabin is the astonishing private balcony with table and chairs for two. Magnificent views can be enjoyed through the full length window or this can be fully opened for a true alfresco experience.

Sundowner on the master balcony?

Thrill seeking guests will be kept busy with the two 230hp Yamaha SHOO jet skis that EMOTION has on board as well as two seabobs, a wakeboard, waterskis, inflatable trampoline and more! For active charterers and their guests there is a small fully equipped gym on the lower deck with cardio equipment and electric weights machine. Why not open the double doors for an amazing sea view whilst you work out!

Serious horsepower!

Experience the Splendour of the Monaco Yacht Show 2013 (Part I)

The Monaco Yacht Show is around the corner and whether you are interested in buying, renting or simply seeing some magnificent boats, there is no better place to do all three. Featuring 100 super and mega yachts with an average size of 46 m, the Monaco Yacht Show is the epitome of style, class and luxury.

MYS is the world`s leading showcase for super yachts – every year, the yachting industry’s top manufacturers, designers and brokers show off their latest and greatest in the glamourous principality. Yachts ranging from 30 to 90 metres dominate Port Hercules, which makes for a truly incredible display.

Monaco is famed for its high-end hospitality and leisure activities, and from the 25th to the 28th of September this year, it manifests this with no holds barred.

Last year, 33 000 people flocked from all corners of the planet to view la crème de la crème of the yachting world – and even more are expected this year. It is the show’s 23rd anniversary, and with 80 events organised by exhibitors in the palaces of Monte Carlo or onboard the yachts themselves, it promises to continue its history of high-class sophistication.  There are a plethora of non-boat related attractions to sink your teeth into also. You can watch an opera at the exquisite Salle Garnier, gamble at the world famous Monte Carlo Casino, watch Monaco FC field their record signing Falcao, or simply wander around and immerse yourself in Monte Carlo’s incredible scenery and architecture.

The Very Best of Gastronomy on a Luxury Yacht

Gourmet_food_on_a_charter_yacht_180_352As more and more people are becoming food aware and are joining the growing ‘foodie’ trend, the time and effort that goes into the preparation of meals on board your luxury yacht is reaching new heights. Only the highest quality and freshest ingredients are acceptable in what is now one of the most important parts on your luxury yacht charter.

We all know of the importance of the out door space or the water toys on board, but like nothing else, it is the quality of the chef that can turn a great charter into an exceptional one.

For more on what you can expect in terms of gourmet food on board your yacht charter see our brand new guide to gourmet food on a luxury yacht.

Starter-229x300          Main-Course-225x300          Dessert-225x300

One such yacht that has a fantastic chef on board and comes very highly recommended here at Boatbookings is Mi Sueno, a fantastic 190ft Trinity luxury yacht.

The chef on board, Chris, has got over 35 years experience in the yachting industry and charter broker Adam recently bore testament to his incredible passion and skill in the kitchen, saying “the variety on offer, from crab cakes topped with wasabi to home made fois gras was absolutely incredible, Chris is one of the best chefs around!”

mi-sueno

At Boatbookings we do not just know the yachts themselves but we know the crew themselves and importantly have often tried the food cooked by the chef on board. We leave no stone unturned in making sure every aspect of the yacht is of the highest standard and will match all your requirements to not just the yacht but the crew. For more luxury yachts that we recommend for the fantastic food they offer on board see our page here.
