Do Yacht Charter Vacations Cast a Spell?

Funny enough, yes, yacht charters typically cast a spell on guests.  They choose yachting as their favorite vacation.  In addition, they repeat the vacation often!

As far as spelling?   There are many uncommon terms used in the yacht charter industry.  For instance, purser, bosun, and lazarette.  But why do I need to spell them?

YACHTING TERMS REASONING

Yacht charter guests do not need to spell boating terms.  Have your charter broker and your attorney handle and explain any contractual details and paperwork. It is your job to simply enjoy your vacation.

We understand.  Many yacht charter guests simply desire education (as do we).  Besides, some charter clients end up as superyacht owners. Subsequently, The Superyacht Experience™ is important to them from all aspects, including spelling.

TERMS THROUGH LANGUAGE

Some items are spelled uniquely in different languages.  For instance, salon vs saloon.  Does it matter when chartering a yacht?  No, not at all.  If you are on a yacht, and your crew mentions a term you haven’t heard, simply ask for an explanation.

A COMMONLY USED UNCOMMON TERM

There is an oft-used term in yachting that relates to criminal incarceration.  Yikes.  Most brokerages continue to use the term, as it is most recognized and used in the industry.  That term is “al fresco.”  In yacht charter, it refers to any outside space.  For example, al fresco (or alfresco) dining commonly refers to outdoor dining.

The actual definition of al fresco in Italian means, “in prison.”   Over the years, the term has gained popularity in use for outdoor yachting areas or activities, so it is not frowned upon in the superyacht industry.   Alas, times change.  In addition, the millennial generation and Urban Dictionary for the term, al fresco, now mean to go without undergarments or to “go commando.”

DO YACHT CHARTERS, THEN, CAST A SPELL?

That is up to you.  If spelling and terminology haunt you or give you pause, then maybe yes.  If you simply want to enjoy The Superyacht Experience™ and the wonderful magical spell that yachting creates, then it doesn’t matter what things are called — or how they are spelled!  As the saying goes, “just don’t call me late for dinner!”
