Trawler Charters
A trawler is a very stable and comfortable yacht. Trawler charters are a great way to experience some of the beautiful tropical islands and coastline our earth has to offer. You can charter a trawler almost anywhere you can think of. Just imagine sailing in areas of the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, the Florida coastline, the Bahamas and the even up in the Pacific Northwest.
A 43 foot trawler charter would be a comfortable boat to cruise in and stay aboard for several days or longer. It boasts a large salon and modern galley. The large flybridge beckons you to relax under the bimini cover.
One of the 43 foot trawler charters is perfect for 3 couples or a family. It has three staterooms and two full heads with showers. The aft deck is great for sunbathing. There is also a large transom door that opens to a spacious swim platform.
The charm of a luxury trawler charter is undeniable. Like any vacation a charter takes planning and preparation to insure satisfaction. It is important to choose the right trawler charter for you. You will also have to book flights and other travel arrangements to get you to the trawler. There are charter specialists available that will utilize their experience to organize your charter so that everything is considered and your vacation runs smoothly.
Maybe you are a sailor in your own right, with many hours of experience. If so, you can do a bareboat charter putting yourself at the helm. To qualify, most charter companies require prior approval after viewing your sailing record. This is a great way to save money as well as allowing you to alter the itinerary whenever you wanted.
If you are not an experienced sailor or just want to relax and let the captain do the sailing there are plenty of excellent captains willing to sail your trawler for you. You will be able to enjoy the pleasures of a boat cruise without having to operate the vessel yourself. The captain would retain responsibility for the vessel. There is usually an advanced payment required to book any trawler charter.
The captain assumes responsibility for the trawler and getting you to your locations safely. The captain is quite knowledgeable of the area he will be navigating and can inform you of the many sights to see and activities to do. He can let you know what restaurants are good at the various ports of call.
In the Pacific Northwest, for example, you would sail around the San Juan Islands and explore the Puget Sound. You would keep watch for bears, whale, deer and eagles. You catch your own fresh crab, gather muscles and oysters, bird watch, fish or just relax.
You can take advantage of the galley and dining facilities onboard or go ashore for a meal. To further experience the local flavor, at your own expense, you may want to spend a night ashore on one of the many islands you will be visiting.
The trawler charter’s fees usually include the following: the fully equipped trawler, linens and towels, the captain, the modern galley with all the amenities, fuel, and dock fees. Extras would be items such as meals ashore and taxes. Some charter companies will allow you to bring your own food and beverages aboard and you are allowed full use of the galley.
