Travelers clamor for unique vacation destinations nowadays. In lieu of that, a stalwart vessel of the Mediterranean yacht charter fleet makes an announcement. Above all, it plans to relocate to the Indian Ocean for the upcoming winter season.
SILVER ANGEL
Benetti motor yacht SILVER ANGEL bases in the Seychelles. She is available for hire as early as the first week of December there. In reality, charters in the Maldives will also be considered.
She launched in 2009. The 211 foot yacht SILVER ANGEL, by the famed Italian shipyard, Benetti, is gorgeous.
ACCOMMODATIONS
Silver Angel accommodates a maximum 12 guests in 7 guest cabins. A crew complement of 21 is onboard to operate the vessel and pamper her guests.
RATE
Winter rental rates are $450,000 per week plus running expenses. Relocation fee for charters in the Maldives is approx $22,000. This covers the fuel cost for the 3-day delivery from the Seychelles to the Maldives.
“We are excited to offer our clients the opportunity to relax onboard one of the largest yachtsin the world, in the eco-unique setting of the Indian Ocean.”
Motor yacht JO, the 164-foot Benetti yacht charter vessel makes announcement. She plans to spend the winter season in the Caribbean.
AWARD-WINNING YACHT
Voted “Best Family Charter Yacht 2011“ by Superyacht World magazine. The 2004 Benetti motoryacht JO accommodates 12 guests in 6 staterooms.
CAPTAIN COMMENTS
Captain Ian Robertson reflects on this yacht. She is unique in the industry. For instance, the combination of a tranquil environment, and modern amenities.
“There is an atmosphere that radiates calmness, and you feel it from the moment you step aboard,” says Robertson. “The yacht as a whole is meticulously maintained, participating in two yard (maintenance) periods per year. Our owner understands the importance of updating tenders, watersports equipment, and the onboard entertainment equipment on a regular basis.”
COMPANY PRESIDENT COMMENTS
“There are plenty of watertoys both for children and adults,” says Jana Sheeder, President of SailAway Yacht Charters and 1-800 Yacht Charters. “The 12 crew members onboard motor yacht JO are among the best family-friendly professionals in the industry.”
FOODIE CELEBRATION
Foodies appreciate the talents of chef David Beltran. He cooks with both passion and flare. His signature dish is “Veal Zurich.” At mealtime, Beltran explains his menus to the guests. To make it fun, he speaks in rhyming couplets. He often interjects a few words in Italian, Spanish, German, and French!
SIMILAR SUPERYACHTS FOR RENT
There are similar yachts available for hire in the Caribbean. For example, 50 meter motor yacht WHEELS and 58 meter yacht SKYFALL. In addition, 45 meter motor yacht ILLUSION.
RATES
Rates for motor yacht JO range. They vary from $175,000 per week for non-premium periods to $225,000 per week for year-end holidays. Running expenses are extra.
A new, higher VAT (Value Added Tax) rate went into effect. All charters that commenced after July 20, 2015 in Greek waters are subject to the tax.

LEGISLATION
The new legislation raised the overall VAT from 13% to 23%. Specifically, lower rates apply to certain charters, based upon the duration of the hire.
There are two VAT categories for charters lasting 3 days or longer:
Category I – vessels licensed to perform international cruises: 9.2% (previously 5.2%).
Category II – vessels licensed to perform long range cruises within Greek waters: 11.5% (previously 6.5%).
SHORT-TERM CHARTER APPLICABILITY
For charters up to 48 hours, there are no discounted rates. Full VAT of 23% is due (previously 13%).
Jana Sheeder, President of 1-800 Yacht Charters, points out the new VAT rates affect ALL charters taking place after July 20, 2015 – even if the charter agreements were signed in prior months. “With the current economic crisis in Greece, we’ve been anticipating some form of VAT austerity,” says Sheeder. “With each charter agreement we prepare, we add a clause indicating that the charterer is responsible for any increase in VAT – this way, there are no surprises. The more details we cover with our clients, the smoother their Superyacht Experience will be.“
QUESTIONS FOR VISITORS
How will the increase in VAT on private luxury yacht charter vacations in Greece effect the number of yacht charters?
Will clients seek alternate destinations or, “grin and bear it” to enjoy a Greek yachting holiday?

Who says you have to beinthe USA to celebrate the country’s independence on the 4th of July???
Here’s a chance for a little change of attitude and latitude:
The 35 meter motor yacht EL JEFE is offering a 4 night charter over the 4th of July holiday, in the Caribbean, at the discounted rate of $20,000, plus running expenses.

When it comes to owners choosing unique names for their yachts, there’s no lack of inspiration. From the obvious ( LADY SARA, LISA IV, et al) to the sublime (e.g. CLOUDBREAK, PARADISE, et al), the only limit to a creative name for a yacht is the owner’s imagination.
While we’ve seen yachts named after famous movies, animals, and people, we have to admit – a yacht named after a candy bar is unique and rare!
So, our team had to chuckle when a beautiful new yacht recently entered the luxury yacht charter marketplace, sporting a name inspired by a popular candy bar found in your neighborhood grocery store.
The Sunseeker 131 motor yacht TAKE 5 shares a name with the well-known Hershey Company candy bar.
The candy bar (per Hershey) is, “…five layers of sweet and salty goodness that doesn’t ask you to compromise. It’s crunchy pretzels, smooth peanut butter, salty peanuts and sweet caramel—all wrapped in silky milk chocolate.”
The eponymous yacht (per Sunseeker) is, “A sublime example of design and engineering, every detail, feature and interior space is nothing short of extraordinary.”
Seems both manufacturer are equally proud of their creations!
Since her launch in 2016, yacht TAKE 5 Sunseeker 131 was strictly used for the personal enjoyment of the owner and his family and friends. Now that the yacht is available for luxury yacht charter, it will be based in the Caribbean during the winter/spring, and in the Western Mediterranean in the summer.
FIVE FLAVORS…FIVE FEATURES
With the candy bar featuring five layers of flavor, it’s only fitting to present five unique charter features about the yacht:
Five stylish and seductive staterooms accommodating up to 12 guests
Fantastic Sundeck with large forward Jacuzzi
Chic beach club at water level
Toy free decks (more space for entertaining and socializing)
Zero speed stabilization system (for maximum comfort while cruising and at anchor)
By the way, in case you thought it was just a coincidence that the yacht and candy bar share a name – individual snack sized Take 5 candy bars fill crystal candy bowls throughout the superyacht!

The Superyacht Experience… Nothing blends the chance to experience new cultures and reconnect with friends and family like a luxury yacht charter vacation. For more information or to arrange your own superyacht experience, contact 1-800 Yacht Charters at +1-800-922-4824 or +1-305-253-7245 today.
