Welcome to November issue of Charter World News

November marks the end of the season, certainly in the Mediterranean, but also in the Pacific for most of our charterers. For us it is the first opportunity to catch our breath after an intense six to eight months.

I have always made it a point to call and follow up every client on their return and I have a fairly good barometer for feedback year by year. This season I know that we received more postcards whilst people were away and more absolute rave reviews about the yachts and the cruising experience.


The negatives were almost entirely related to the weather (the heat wave in late June in Europe was extreme). I would like to think that after 22 years we have honed down our operators to the very best available now and can choose the right vessels and can give the best service and advice in the industry.

Listed below are the latest news and developments on the charter scene, new bases, yachts, as well as our travelog of the ‘Land of Smiles’ – Thailand.

Good chartering

And the rest of the line is not toil and trouble, but quadruple, then another double… On the eve of the 100th Fastnet that has attracted some 464 entries, I heard of one entry in this record fleet that seemed so very apt. Not only because it includes the Commodore of the RORC, but because it combines two Brits and two Aussies.
