Let us introduce you to all the top-rating sailing destinations the world has to offer: beautiful places where there's a wide choice of modern catamarans, monohull yachts, motor boats and traditional sailing vessels available for your bareboating or crewed boat charter.
We travel extensively to research and review all the world's popular sailing destinations, inspecting our charter boat fleets to ensure maintenance standards and design suitability. We collect the best local knowledge available on all the places we operate, recommending destinations that meet your budget, interests, level of sailing experience and group needs. We share our accumulated knowledge for you to make your informed choices, before you go sailing on the holiday of a lifetime.
Sail Connections can place you on a bareboat or crewed charter in just about any sailing destination world-wide.
On the one hand the major sailing hubs offer permanently-located boats with good operators and the perfect packages for destinations that they know intimately: the Greek Islands, Croatia and the whole northern Med., Tahiti, Thailand and the Caribbean hotspots.
On the other hand, there are the smaller companies who excel in their flexibility, alternating between the seasons in different locations. This is particularly the case with the trans-Atlantic shuffle: boats domiciled in the Mediterranean that move to the Caribbean when the seasons change, working the Americas according to booking demand. These are the companies we go to with enquiries for less renowned but equally appealing charter destinations. Places such as the Canary Islands, Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao-San Blas, Bocas del Toro and the Grenadines.
If you have the time and the budget we can make it happen: in the most iconic sailing locations on the planet, and in places less travelled.
A sailboat charter that includes a paid crew can mean different things: a crewed bareboat with your party joined by freelance skipper and sometimes cook; a boat that must have a skipper included, and the full-service charter with permanent, professional crew attached.
A sailing holiday frequently combines with a land-based resort stay. How many nights aboard charter boat and how many nights onshore, or foregoing one or the other due to cost, is often a discussion point. So we did an exercise on the price comparisons between boat and resort. The cost benefits of a sailing holiday are clear
Here we highlight some smaller catamarans finding favour with our charterers in the Mediterranean and elsewhere. Robert is our expert evaluator when it comes to helping you select the right boat for your sailing charter, and the following is his personal take on recent introductions to the charter boat market.
The Bali catamaran, designed and built specifically with chartering in mind, has become so popular that it’s been hard to keep up with all the new models, hard to spot which one has just the right size and amenities to perfectly fit your group's sailing holiday charter needs. We can help you there.
At Sail Connections we offer a personal service based on long experience in the business and close attention to what's happening in the destinations we offer. We have also sailed a large number of those places, and can often speak from personal experience. But we can't be everywhere.
