The 188-foot Abeking and Rasmussen Dream has just announced new availability for charter this summer in the Mediterranean.

“This yacht used to be known as Excellence III, and she has always been one of the most luxurious megayachts available for charter,” says Yachtstore charter broker Gina Robertson. “She recently got a new owner who re-christened her Dream, and I’m thrilled to see that he is returning her to the charter market in all her well-earned glory.”

Dream (Excellence III)

The cabin configuration aboard Dream is ideal for adult couples chartering with children. Four of the cabins—including the main-deck master and bridge-deck VIP—offer king-size beds. The remaining two guest cabins have twin beds.

Also onboard are a sundeck hot tub, an air-conditioned gymnasium, and a plethora of water toys for all kinds of fun in the sun.

“Whenever a great charter yacht gets sold to a new owner, there is always the chance that he will remove the boat from the industry altogether,” Robertson says. “I’m so pleased that the opposite has happened with Dream. She’s a great charter yacht, and I’m thrilled that she’s once again available in the Mediterranean.”

The lowest weekly base rate to charter Dream this summer is €340,000. Contact Robertson today for booking details.

Croatia is fast becoming a must-visit destination in the Eastern Mediterranean. With ancient walled cities like Dubrovnik and stunning bays where development has yet to encroach, Croatia’s Adriatic coastline is a paradise for yacht charter during the summer months.

“Yacht charter itineraries in this region generally include both Croatia and Montenegro, which is also incredibly beautiful,” says Yachtstore charter broker Gina Robertson. “People who have cruised all over the world say the Bay of Kotor, in Montenegro, is among the prettiest they’ve ever seen.”

O’Pati

Two leading megayachts that have availability this summer in Croatia and Montenegro are O’Pati and Inevitable.

O’Pati is a 129-foot Golden Yachts build with a striking black hull. She launched in 2011 and is currently a nominee for a World Superyacht Award. She will be available in Croatia and Montenegro starting in mid-July, with dates extending until early September. O’Pati can accommodate as many as 12 guests in five cabins.

Inevitable

Inevitable is a 164-foot Feadship that was built in 1990 and refit so beautifully in 2008 that she won that year’s Showboats International Award for Refit/Rebuild. She accommodates 10 guests in five cabins and boasts 11 crew, which means charter clients receive service at a ratio even higher than one-to-one.

“Both O’Pati and Inevitable are terrific megayachts that are built to compete in the most competitive charter markets,” Robertson says. “To have them in a quieter destination like Croatia creates some terrific opportunities for summer vacations. This caliber of yacht isn’t always available in these types of locations, so the time to book is now.”

New England is a fantastic destination for summer yacht charter, with itineraries that can include historic ports and islands such as Newport, Nantucket, and Martha’s Vineyard.

“This region really does offer something unique in the world for yacht charter,” says Yachtstore charter broker Gina Robertson. “The history of New England is in great part the history of the early United States. Your charter yacht can even pull into Plymouth, Massachusetts, just like the Mayflower did with the Pilgrims all those centuries ago. Plus, the cruising is absolutely beautiful.”

Newvida

Two top-notch megayachts have availability in New England this summer. One is the 160-foot Delta Newvida, which is currently completing a refit and should be in sparkling condition for summer charters. The captain of Newvida, Sean Meagher, is a local expert on New England cruising and has been tapped to speak about the area at the Newport Charter Yacht Show in June.

Also available this summer in New England is the 120-foot Crescent Impetuous. Her crew have put together an outstanding sample itinerary for clients to consider. You can view it on the Yachtstore Featured Yachts and Destinations page.

Impetuous

“There’s nothing better than a great charter yacht whose crew has strong local knowledge of the cruising area,” Robertson says. “In New England this summer, Newvida and Impetuous really are offering terrific vacation experiences.”
