A dozen or so Mediterranean yacht charter vessels prepare. It is time for the regatta in Sardinia. At the same time, another race is canceled abruptly due to the threat of a hurricane.
Nevertheless, preparations in Costa Smeralda, Sardinia continue. A fleet of Perini Navi yachts are poised to compete in the Perini Navi Cup. During this time, race organizers of the 25th annual Newport Bucket Regatta are busy. The race is August 25 – 28, 2011, and Hurricane Irene had other ideas. As a result, they called off Saturday’s main event as Hurricane Irene arrived.
The actual race was cancelled. The unfettered spirit and camaraderie shone on. Equally important, the big post race party, known as “The Bash,” is a go. It shifted by one night, from Saturday, to Friday.
On Wednesday, the yacht captains in the Newport Bucket Regatta had a meeting. Specifically, Peter Craig and bucket director Hank Halsted were there Consensus determined that Hurricane Irene’s threat made race cancellation the only choice. Transitioning from race mode to storm mode for a superyacht is extremely time-consuming. The decision was finally made to safeguard the yachts and their crews.
In spite of preparing for the storm, some owners and their families and guests are ready. They plan to enjoy the gala Bucket Bash at the Newport Shipyard. The Bash will feature all the food and festivities planned for the special 25th Anniversary Celebration.
In like fashion, the Texas Legends Airshow, was also canceled. It was held in conjunction with the Bucket and sponsored each year by the owner of the yacht, Tenacious. All eyes look ahead to the 2012 Newport Bucket Regatta!
Chartering a sailboat for the a regatta is a unique experience. It is filled with excitement and fun. There are dozens of friendly regattas around the world. Contact 1-800 Yacht Charters HERE for more regatta information.

Dreaming On catamaran sailboat
The vacation (on sail catamaran DREAMING ON) was absolutely amazing!!! It was such a magical experience and Geoff and Iza are two of the main reasons for that.
I can’t say enough about the hospitality they offered, their kindness, the comfort – they are the ultimate in hosting this type of trip.
To say that they exceeded our expectations is an understatement.
The food was a 15 out of 10…every meal was better than the last. Homemade bread every day!!!! Iza made sure that all of our requests were met when it came to the menu. She was even considerate enough to remember which one of us didn’t like eggs and also made the portion sizes perfect for each individual. The four of us all love to eat and enjoy good food and her food was above and beyond. I have requested all of her recipes but I don’t think I will be able to replicate her touch when it came to preparing our meals.
The boat was always clean and unfortunately Geoff and Iza spent quite a bit of time picking up after us….
We found the boat to be the perfect size for us, the best part was the front bow with the trampolines. Laying out there when the sails were up and we were crashing into the waves was an experience we will never forget.
I should also mention the hammock and being able to drink a mimosa while laying out there in the morning sun was wonderful. The cabins were clean and bathrooms were always clean.
The outside dining table was the only place we ate. It is shaded and out of the sun. The seating so comfortable. Oh, and I would be re-missed (sic) if I didn’t mention the table settings that she had…the thought, the time, the effort that was put into our vacation is unmatched.
Geoff was a wonderful captain. Our itinerary was perfect and it allowed us to see what we wanted; the only flaw was that we didn’t have more time to continue our journey.
We can’t wait to book our next trip with Geoff and Iza. [We want to] see some of the other islands we weren’t able to squeeze in this trip. I have traveled all over the world. Between the four of us on this trip we have covered most it. This was by far the best vacation I have had.
I have a villa booked in St. John for a week in January. We are trying to figure out a way to cancel and stay with Geoff and Iza instead. If we can’t cancel, we will be with them. Specifically, for at least two nights and go to the full moon party.
I think this summarizes our experience…
Bottom line – Geoff and Iza are the best of the best! The trip wouldn’t have been half as wonderful if we had a different crew. There hasn’t been a day so far that we haven’t said “I miss Geoff and Iza”.
