Bon Appetit: Luxury Yacht Charters Please Your Palate

The question isn’t what’s the difference between an all-inclusive 60’ catamaran charter and a week aboard a 200’ superyacht.

The question is what do they have in common? Each private yacht vacation, regardless of the size of the vessel, is unique because you are the star of the show. The entire experience is custom created based on your personal preferences.

The yacht is your home for the duration of your stay and like some say, the kitchen (or in this case the galley), the heart. Your cook or chef will provision the boat prior to embarkation and depending on where you cruise, be able to source local ingredients throughout the journey. In some cases, if they can’t find what you request, we can arrange to have it flown in. From alfresco barbeques to formal dining, you are sure to be palatably pleased!

EXIT STRATEGY (105’/32m Hargrave) is offered for charter exclusively at Denison Yachting, starting at $45,000/wk, plus expenses. We asked the chef for a “day in the food life” from a recent charter:

Breakfast:

Homemade baked goods, yogurt, cereals, and fresh fruits and juices.

Coconut and Ricotta Pancakes with Ginger Syrup

Lunch:

Seared Crab Cakes with fresh herbed corn summer salad on a bed of mixed greens

Hors d’oeuvres:

Chilled Gazpacho Shots and Seared Duck Rolls

Dinner:

Tomato Salad with Sweet Onion, Tapenade and Macadamia Nut Pesto

Miso Black Cod topped with a Potato Cloud on a Bed of Julienned Carrot Sauté

Fresh Mango Ice Cream in a Cashew Praline Basket with Fresh Berries.

Cocktail of the day:

Vanilla Pineapple Margarita

The charter preference sheets are vital to ensure the cuisine onboard is prepared to your standards. Prior to your vacation, you will fill these out. Don’t be shy!
