During the past few summers, Adventuress sailed on several term charters including a ten-day Maine cruise, three-day trips to Martha’s Vineyard and the Hamptons and overnighters to Block Island. She also participated in the International Yacht Restoration School’s annual Classic Yacht Cruise and various classic yacht regattas.
Your charter broker can arrange a charter of any particulars, but among the most popular are two or three-night weekend excursions to the well-known and scenic nearby coastal islands. The following itinerary suggests possible activities over a three-day trip to Nantucket.
Your charter broker can, of course, develop any itinerary to suit your tastes.
