Just as there are “brand” aficionados with powerboats, it turns out the sail yacht enthusiasts have a favorite manufacturer as well: Perini Navi.
The Perini Navi Group builds superyachts under two specific brand names: Perini Navi for the sail boat division, and Picchiotti for the motor yacht division. Founded in 1983, Perini Navi Group has operations in five market sectors:
Large sailing yachts that range from 40 to 60 meters
Large sailing yachts over 60 meters and custom projects
A racing line of sailing yachts
A fast cruising line of sailing yachts
Picchiotti motor yachts from the Vitruvius® series
It is in Viareggio, Italy, where the world’s premier brand of sail yacht projects are draw, developed and constructed.
From master Italian craftsmen, to the use of the finest materials and amenities, these sailing vessels have garnered critical acclaim, and a dedicated following of repeat charter customers.
Over a dozen yachts by this storied manufacture are available in the luxury sailing charter marketplace. Among the standout vessels are sail yacht MALTESE FALCON, sail yacht MELEK, sail yacht SALUTE, and sail yacht PANTHALASSA.
Sailors come to the Caribbean every year. For the Perini Navi yacht charter aficionado, that lure continues to this day. Superyacht builder Perini Navi can proudly boast that a large number of Caribbean yacht charter megayacht vessels were launched from their acclaimed Italian shipyard.
YACHTING EVENT
Perini Navi has a new sail event in 2010. The yacht charter experience is an opportunity to participate in a superyacht race event.
REGATTA DATES
A new regatta, “Les Voiles de Saint Barth,” is from April 6 and April 11th, 2010. The event organizers are the Saint Barth Yacht Club and Comité Territorial du Tourisme, with the support of Saint Barthélémy’s Collectivité.
CLASSIC YACHTS RACE
While classic boats and multihulls will race in this new event, the undoubted stars of the show will be in the superyacht category. The megayacht Caribbean yacht charter vessels, will be led by a flotilla of Perini Navi sailboats.
Up to 10 more Perini Navi sailboats are considering participation.
THE REGATTA
There is an inspiration for “Les Voiles de Saint Barth.” In specific, to create a regatta for beautiful sailboats. They navigate in the local waters in a festive spirit. This happens in the idyllic setting of Saint Barth Island. Everyone gets involved. For instance, residents, storekeepers, and water sport professionals. All get ready to welcome megayachts and their crews. Fortunate Caribbean yacht charter customers also participate. That could be you! Spring is a wonderful time to plan sail boat charters in the Caribbean. A St. Barts yacht charter during “Les Voiles de Saint Barth” brings memories to last a lifetime.
SUMMARY
In conclusion, charter a yacht and enjoy the sailboat race in St. Barts. Exhiliaration and excitement await.
