New England
Yacht Charters

This is where the Pilgrim first landed on the Mayflower. Thanksgiving dinner was first held here. The Mayflower Compact, the first concept of a constitution, was signed just off its coast.  JFK favored the beaches at Hyannis Port, but he wasn’t the first. Ulysses S. Grant and Grover Cleveland loved the Cape. Most importantly, Cape Cod is New England in miniature. Plus with the Cape Cod National Seashore spanning 40 miles of coastline, all managed by the National Park Service, what better way to experience it than on a private yacht charter?

The island of Nantucket is a quiet, casual place to relax, a perfect stop for boat charters. A former whaling station, Melville based Moby Dick on the whaler ship Essex which launched from its shores and he did his characters Ahab and Starbuck. Today the entire island is listed as a US National Historic Landmark District and has become a summer destination.  Its 18th and early 19th century New England seaport architectural style is unmatched, it’s stores and restaurants nearly all are locally owned and sourced. It’s culture, artistic. Nantucket island is known for the performing arts and its artist residency colony, and of course, wearing Nantucket Reds.

Between the hustle of Cape Cod and remote Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard can be reached by yacht and has been a favorite of many. No one knows where the name first originated but local legends abound. Martha’s Vineyard is thought to be the location of the first English settlement in the region and today a favorite of many. The Bush Family, the Clinton Family, and the Obama’s all vacationed here often.  The reason? Words can’t explain, but this is your chance to find out for yourself.

Sail back to the Gilded Age, a place where Fitzgerald’s Gatsby might feel at ease.  Newport was home to Jacqueline Kennedy. Eisenhower summered there. The Vanderbilt family fell in love with the city too and built the legendary The Breakers. Today Newport remains a vibrant sea town. A past host of America’s Cup, its perfect harbor is home to a fleet of private yachts and premier sailing schools.  Test your land legs on the famed Cliff Walk that hugs the Atlantic Ocean or take the Preservation Society’s incredible Mansion Tour.

At the northern edge of the east coast, where the famed Appalachian Trail finally ends, you’ll explore a rugged cost that vanishes into mist-covered mountains. First settled by fishermen and 17th-century adventurers, Maine is where Henry David Thoreau went to explore. Today, there is no finer way to experience this storybook land than by yacht. Quaint fishing villages and port towns, each with their own signature lobster roll, dot a shoreline protected by lighthouses most have seen in travel magazines but few have visited. From April to October, you may troll between right whales feeding their young, or witness spectacular humpbacks breaching in front of you. Or perhaps, for a very lucky few, an Orcas will say hello. No matter what else you find, this rugged wilderness is a place where you will find yourself.

The cultural hub of New England, mighty Boston is a must on any bucket list. The American Revolution started here, free speech, and Boston Chowder. It’s the home of iconic sports teams, the Boston Marathon, and some of the greatest universities in the world. Get lost wandering its cobblestone streets that spread around a historic harbor and home of Old Ironsides – the USS Constitution. Millions visit this iconic city, but only a select few will ever experience it from the view of a luxury yacht.

From its sophisticated wine bars and upscale beach clubs, to the beautiful Victorians and award-winning restaurants, Sag Harbor exudes a quiet cool. This New England coastal town is often referred to as the St Tropez of the Atlantic.
