Out-of-the-Ordinary
Cruising
If you have chartered a yacht
before, you know the difference between a cruise ship vacation and a
charter yacht holiday is as different as night from day. Chartering is
the most personalized vacation you can have short of sailing aboard
your own yacht -- without the responsibility and expense of yacht
ownership. A yacht holiday is literally customized to your
tastes.
|
|
Put your vacation or corporate getaway
into the hands of charter professionals. The Corporate Sportsman
will make all the arrangements for a romantic getaway for two or
a cruising adventure for many, a business agenda for key personnel,
or client entertaining on a grand scale. Contact
us today to find out how memorable a personal or corporate yacht
charter holiday can be.

Planning a Charter
We handle an extensive
flotilla of professionally-crewed private yachts -- from intimate sailing vessels to
world-class mega-yachts -- available for private charter to vacation destinations
all over the world.
|
|
Because so many options are available -- type and
speed of yacht, price, length of trip,
destinations, desired activities, number of traveling companions, etc.
-- it is necessary to begin planning a yachting holiday by setting some
basic parameters. Thinking in advance about these variables will help
us plan a realistic itinerary for you:
· Date of charter holiday
· Length of holiday
· Places you wish to visit
· Embarking and disembarking ports
· Number of adults and children in your party
· Number of separate cabins required
· Events you wish to attend
· Onboard events you wish to host
· Total budget, including airfare and gratuities
· Type of yacht, or even a specific yacht
· Entertainment and communications equipment required
· Sports equipment required
· Special accommodations for nanny, staff,
· or guests with physical
limitations
|
 |
No expectation, such as dining and sleeping
arrangements, is too trivial to discuss with us. We will even ask you
about your food and beverage preferences for provisioning purposes,
and every attempt will be made to stock the vessel as if it truly is
your private yacht. Remember, chartering is the most personalized
vacation you can have short of sailing aboard your own yacht.
|
|
Plan ahead!
If you are chartering a yacht to
attend an event such as the Cannes Film Festival or the Grand Prix
in Monaco, please book in advance to avoid disappointment.

Mexico
From the famous La Quebrada
diving cliffs of Acapulco on Mexico's Pacific coast to the golden dunes of
Cabo San Lucas, Baja California Sur, the strikingly beautiful Pacific coastline can be best viewed
aboard a yacht.
|
|
For the truly adventurous yachtsman who
wants to see unusual wildlife above and below the water, Mexico's Gulf
of California offers some of the finest birding and whale-watching in
the world. It is a cruising paradise for water sports and game fishing
enthusiasts alike.

The
Caribbean
Relaxing massages, dancing to steel bands,
exploring local markets and indulging in exquisite dining under a
blanket of stars are activities synonymous with Caribbean cruising.
|
|
Blessed with consistent tradewinds and
the most sunny days annually of any of the world's cruising grounds,
the islands' tropical climate is pleasant year 'round. In addition,
protected anchorages and international flavor continue to make the Caribbean the
most popular charter area in the world.
The Caribbean, including the Bahamas,
comprises more than 730 inhabited islands and 2,400 uninhabited cays
-- making chartering possibilities virtually boundless. Each day can bring a different island with a different
culture. There's so much to see and do, it would take a lifetime of
typical resort visits to fully explore the entire region. Without a doubt,
the best way to
sample the many delights of the Caribbean is to charter a private
yacht from The Corporate Sportsman.

The
Mediterranean
The fashionable cruising grounds of the
Mediterranean begin with Spain's untamed Andalusian coast. From here,
to the sun-drenched, antiquities-filled coast of Turkey, the wonders of Western
civilization surround the azure sea.
|
|
Nowhere else on earth can one witness
so much history amid so much glamour. In fact, there is so much to savor in
the Mediterranean that it may be tempting to try to cover too much in
a single holiday.
Whether you're a movie starlet
or powerful captain of industry, there is no better -- or secure --
way to be seen than on the deck of a fine yacht.
