Capt Kevin and Monica gave us a wonderful ride... even in almost none existent winds!!! Monica is extremely accommodating and helped with planning and launch logistics for a wonderful surprise bday sail! Capt Kevin is a knowledgeable, friendly slipper with local lore for all. Best day ever. Would definitely go on a chartered sail with them in a heartbeat.

It was an absolute privilege to sail on a boat that won an America's Cup. The captain and crew were great. I'd absolutely do this again. From the reviews, it seems people fall into one of two camps: folks with at least some understanding of sailing, who knew what to expect and simply loved this; and folks who didn't know what sailing is about and came in with the misguided expectation of a leisure cruise on a floating lounge chair. These boats were built to go as fast as the wind allows, and the passengers and crew permit. In my opinion, this is a fun activity for adults and kids.

Very frustrating experience ! We booked a sail yesterday with 12 meter yacht charters. The sail was scheduled to depart at 5pm. We received a call at 4:15 letting us know the trip was cancelled due to lack of enough people booking the trip. While it was in their terms and conditions that the boat trip could be cancelled, to call us 45" before our trip while we were on our way to the dock was very unprofessional. We understand that weather and lack of participation are issues , but particularly with something like the number of people booking, it would have been more professional for them to give us more notice. Even just an hour and a half before would have prevented us from driving to the dock, but the last minute call resulted in us having to head back to our hotel and redo all our plans for the evening. Thankfully, we ended up booking a fabulous boat trip viewing fireworks on the harbor with a company that didn't cancel on us at the last minute. Highly recommend going on a fireworks boat cruise with any another company, or perhaps a day sail with a different company.

I had taken my boyfriend to Newport to celebrate his birthday and unfortunately we had a very unpleasant experience with our sail/helicopter tour. First it started out with having to rebook our helicopter tour due to a funeral service. Understandably so, I was happy to move our tour from the original 11am slot to a 6pm slot. I can understand the circumstances however I do not understand how you can operate with only one pilot for these reasons. Secondly, our sail was terrifying and unpleasant. I'm not sure if the weather conditions were not up to par but if so we should have been warned and offered the opportunity to cancel. The sail boat was sideways about 75% of the time making it extremely uncomfortable sitting/holding on the whole time. We were sitting upfront of the boat and were told we may need to duck when the sail moves however we could never hear the captain tell us to duck. We also got completely soaked... and I do understand that is a possibility being on a boat however i was drenched , wearing white, and not one staff member offered a poncho or cover up... and probably because the sailing weather was not appropriate and the boat was sideways the whole time making it impossible for anyone to walk over to check on us. We were told to bring drinks as if it was going to be a nice leisure trip- with how much we had to lay down/ duck/ swap sides it was quite impossible to hold a drink while trying to hold ourselves up. Due to the fact we were completely soaked and sore from laying down and sitting sideways holding ourselves up, it ruined the rest of our day in Newport as we could not do anything else looking / feeling the way we did. Lastly, we did receive a call as soon as we got off our boat that the weather conditions weren't great for flying and had to cancel our helicopter tour as well. I've tried calling multiple times and their mailbox is conveniently full, as well as send emails in which they have yet to respond to... ridiculous customer service..

My boyfriend and I love sailing on Nefertiti whenever we come visit Newport! Captain Maddie Parker is an excellent host and treats us like family! She is knowledgeable of the buildings and historical information along our path, which is different every time! Seeing the crew work together really highlights the complexity of the sport and the grace of leadership.

Fantastic! If you are looking for a Cocktail Cruise or a Romantic Boat Ride this IS NOT for you. If you are looking for a wicked awesome Sailing Adventure ThIS IS FOR YOU! My family and I really enjoyed our sail today, friendly, professional crew (Kevin, Nate, Liz); well maintained historical America's Cup Sailboat; and beautiful weather! Sailing on Columbia was simply amazing, a dream come true. Our daughters first sailing experience and she really had a lot of fun! We look forward to doing this again next summer! Highly Recommend!

We sailed at 5:30 with captain Nora. We loved it. She was great. Her crew was great. I sailed a 12 meter boat. Everything I hoped for. They were very informative about both the boat and the surrounding sites. If you get a chance this is a fun excursion.

Our bachelor party did the wine and dine package and it was phenomenal! The crew and staff were so fun, friendly, and knowledgeable. They even took care of our cooler of beer and brought it out to us when we could start drinking (outside of the harbor). We all (8 guys) highly, highly recommend it. It was the highlight of our weekend and probably one of the more memorable times together.

If you want the Real 12 experience this is it! It is not cheep but worth it! Great history of the boats, great crew, and wonderful time!!

We literally could not have has a better time! Meredith and the entire crew were AMAZING. The sailboat was gorgeous and the actual sail was just beautiful. Can't wait to do it again!

Regatta Racing

America’s Cup Charters’ 12 Meters race in many organized regattas each season. Our racing regattas fall into three general categories: major regattas, private regattas and fundraising regattas. Each type of regatta requires a different level of sailing experience.

Major Regattas

These are events generally sailed under the organizational authority of the 12 Meter Class, a yacht club or an entity such as Sail Newport and are available to qualified charterers and their team. Yachts typically utilize full racing sail, including maximum sized over-lapping genoas and spinnakers where applicable. These regattas demand the highest level of sailing experience, skill and athleticism of any of our events, necessitating a well rounded and fit crew. We’re happy to help round out your crew if needed and welcome discussing participation in any of the season’s regattas. A practice day is typically required prior to racing.

Private Regattas

These are usually corporate outings, inter-yacht club challenges, or even friends and family events and are sailed with two or more yachts requiring no prior sailing experience. For corporate groups, staging an America’s Cup 12 Meter Regatta is a spectacular event for a company outing, entertaining clients or team building. Whether sailing with co-workers, customers, or friends, racing the Cup boats requires teamwork and communication helping to build a cohesive team within your company and friendships of a lifetime.

Corporate clients consistently tell us that our regattas are the best company outing that they have ever experienced. Let our experienced staff take care of your regatta details which can include a race committee yacht, catering, spectator yachts and guest speakers. Email us for details for a winning event!

For yacht club sailors, our classic America’s Cup 12 Meters provide the ultimate sailing experience. The yachts are powerful, graceful, challenging and all possess storied histories in yachting. Level racing aboard these authentic America’s Cup contenders will be the highlight of your club’s season. If you believe that your club has the best sailors in your area, you can prove it with an inter-club challenge! Come see why Newport is known as the sailing capital of the Northeast or contact us about an event in your home waters; we’re happy to discuss the merits of both venues. Our captains have experience sailing up and down the East Coast.

Fundraising Regattas

We partner with several nonprofit organizations each season to coordinate fundraising regattas that utilize our America’s Cup Twelve Meter yachts as fundraising vehicles. These regattas provide exciting racing and a competitive forum that is viable to participants from novice to the expert sailor.

Contact us for details on how we can assist you to meet your fundraising goals for the charity of your choice.

16 Yacht Charters That Make for a Strangely Affordable Family Vacation

Posted: December 11, 2023 | Last updated: December 12, 2023

While a yacht may be the first thing that pops to mind when you think of the ultra-wealthy, chartering one might not be as expensive as you think. When you're splitting the costs between several family members or friends you are paying for transportation and stay and it can make sense financially.

You can also  keep money in your wallet  by selecting an older vessel or taking charge of sailing yourself (hiring a crew always costs extra).

So let’s take a look at options that may be within reach for people who aren’t living paycheck to paycheck but aren’t brunching with the Kardashians either.

Editor's note: prices are subject to change and may vary depending on the time of the year.

San Antonio motor yacht

The San Antonio is a luxury motor yacht measuring 146 feet in length that was built in 2018. This huge vessel is capable of accommodating 36 guests in 18 cabins.

The cost to charter it starts at $21,000 per week plus expenses, not including a crew of eight (which we recommend).

Divide the cost by capacity, and that’s only $583 per person per week to start. That’s practically unbeatable for a boat of this size, allowing you to make other savvy moves with your money .

Get expert advice on making more money - sent straight to your inbox.

Virginia Mia motor yacht

Constructed in 2001 (with several subsequent refits), the Virginia Mia is another luxury motor yacht that’s 95 feet in length.

Custom-designed by Nuvolari Lenard, this vessel can sleep eight guests in four cabins as well as an additional crew of four.

Still, thanks to the age of the yacht, the cost of chartering starts at $15,000 plus expenses per week, or just under $2,000 per guest sans crew.

Nautilus sailing yacht

White motor yachts are convenient and luxe, sailing yachts promise a more traditional experience.

At nearly 125 feet, the Nautilus is a large option styled by Robert Delus. Built in 2008, it sleeps 10 guests in five cabins. At this size, you'll likely need a crew of six.

The cost to charter this beauty starts at $17,500 per week sans expenses, again just under $2,000 per person — which really isn't bad for all you're getting.

Aegean Clipper sailing yacht

The Aegean Clipper is another sailing vessel, this one built all the way back in 1999 — which translates into cost savings for you.

The yacht is another biggie at nearly 135 feet. With 11 cabins, the boat can accommodate up to 24 guests plus five crew members as needed.

In total, your group will have to shell out a minimum of $13,000 plus expenses per week — just over $379 per person. That's a great deal, comparatively speaking.

Silver Fox expedition yacht

If you're looking for something a little smaller that can go the distance, the Silver Fox expedition yacht might be for you.

Built in 2009, the 72-foot yacht accommodates six guests in three cabins for a more intimate experience. There's room for a crew of two if you need their expertise.

With a starting cost of $16,500 per week, the Silver Fox will run each person over $2,700 per week, but the small group may be worth it.

Tivoli expedition yacht

Traveling with a group of the same size but want more length and a bigger crew?

The Tivoli expedition yacht, constructed in 2001 and remodeled in 2010, can fit four crew members. This stunner is just over 90 feet long and can take you on those long hauls.

Yes, it will cost more at $25,000 per week, or over $4,100 per person. But if you can afford it, it’s a dream come true out on the open water.

Shangri-La classic yacht

Classics are classics for a reason, as they stand the test of time. Such is the case with the Shangri-La, a vintage yacht sure to take you to that magical place.

This vessel sleeps six in three cabins and promises to be child-friendly. The Shangri-La was constructed way back in 1965, and it is 82 feet long with space for three crew members.

A week on this rig will cost you $16,500, or just over $2,700 a pop.

Sai Kung classic yacht

Another vintage beauty, the Sai Kung classic yacht was born in 1975 and got a makeover in 2015. That updated this 79-foot vessel that can sleep nine people in four cabins.

Be sure you’re a nautical whiz, as there’s no room for additional crew here, but that will only save you money.

All told, the Sai Kung will set your group back $17,500 per week, just under $2,000 per person.

Glorious open yacht

Outdoor yachts are designed for those who truly want to live outside, which you can do easily on the Glorious.

This sporty 72-footer is ready to help you dive, scuba, and more, with room for six guests in three cabins. You can bring a crew of two for extra help, of course.

Built in 2007 and remodeled nine years later, chartering the Glorious will run you $16,500 per week, again $2,700 per person.

9 nearly secret things to do if you fly Southwest

Speedy T open yacht

Looking for a bigger open yacht that’s perfect for swim buffs? Charter the Speedy T, a vessel that’s 80 feet long and primed for dips in refreshing ocean waters.

Like many of the yachts on this list, it accommodates six guests in three cabins and has room for three crew members.

All told, one week on this sleek ship — built in 1994 and renovated in 2011 — is $19,500 before expenses, translating to $3,250 per head. But the adventure promises to be unforgettable.

Etoile Magique catamaran yacht

With extra stability even at higher speeds, catamaran yachts like the Etoile Magique are great options for adventure.

This 80-foot vessel is roomy for its size, with room for 16 guests in eight cabins. There’s space for a three-person crew, too.

Constructed in 2004 and remodeled a decade later, this is a budget-friendly adventure in the making. At $18,710 per week before expenses, that shakes out to a bit over $1,100 apiece.

Fuerte 3 catamaran yacht

Meaning “strong” in Spanish, the Fuerte 3 catamaran yacht — built in 2004 and renovated in 2010 — offers a more intimate experience than the Etoile Magique, with space for nine guests in four cabins.

On the smaller side, at 67 feet, you can bring two crew members along if you need them. The price tag for one week is around $22,000, or just over $2,400 a pop. This vessel is best in shallower waters.

Astrape sport fishing yacht

If your idea of the perfect vacation is sport fishing, this boat is for you. The Astrape sport fishing yacht comes with top-of-the-line fishing equipment so you can catch your dream fish.

Built in 2008 and remodeled in 2016, the 76-foot vessel sleeps eight in four cabins. It also has room for three crew members.

On the pricier side at $29,000, a week will cost each person nearly $3,700 — worth it if you can show off that once-in-a-lifetime catch, though!

Barefoot sport fishing yacht

Giving us some real Orca energy, the Barefoot sport fishing yacht was built in 2006 — much later than that famed vessel from "Jaws."

The 64-foot boat is designed for fishing in shallower waters, perfect for you and five friends who will share three cabins. Two crew members can fit, too.

This yacht is cheaper than the Astrape at $17,500, so six folks will pay just under $3,000 a head per week.

Prenses Lila gulet yacht

Gulet yachts are known for their tall masts, ample deck space, and Turkish origins — perfect for a Mediterranean voyage.

To that end, the Prenses Lila is an excellent option for groups of 18. At 114 feet with eight cabins and space for five crew members, this boat beckons.

You can charter Prenses Lila — built in 2009 and remodeled in 2009 — for $17,500 per week in September.

Dreamland gulet yacht

The second gulet yacht and the final boat we’re covering is Dreamland, which will surely take you there. 

Constructed in 2006, 12 guests can sleep in six suites on this 105-foot vessel as well as five crew members.

You can book Dreamland for around $26,000 in high season. Divide that by 12, and you land on about $2,200 per person. That might require some financial fitness , but yachts like this don’t come around every day.

Bottom line

Spending your days sunning and swimming aboard a luxurious yacht may seem like an out-of-reach proposition, but we’re here to tell you it’s possible.

In fact, with planning and savvy budgeting, you can score your dream seafaring adventure. You can even use your favorite credit card to book and earn travel rewards .

Traveling by charter yacht is also more environmentally friendly than flying, which means you can feel good about your sailing vacation.

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.
