COSTA MAGNA Available for MIPIM 2015

MIPIM is the first major event in Cannes every year. The Croisette floods with people enjoying the spring sunshine in what is a magnificent mix of business and pleasure. As with many of Cannes‘ internationally renowned events, the vieux port is the place to be and be seen. As such, the most popular yachts book up very quickly, often up to 12 months in advance. Boatbookings are therefore delighted to announce that, due to a cancellation, one of the event’s premier yachts, COSTA MAGNA, is once more available for charter for MIPIM in 2015.

At MIPIM, a lot of entertaining and business  is conducted with champagne glass in hand. COSTA MAGNA can accommodate up to 100 guests at port, as well as up to 42 guests when cruising, allowing you to host large and glamorous cocktail parties while the sun goes down.

As well as the impressive amount of space available on board, her interior is refined and elegant. Hard wood tables and finishings are complimented beautifully by plush, white carpets and deep and inviting sofas, lending an relaxing and sophisticated atmosphere.

Early spring sunshine is far from uncommon on the Cote d’Azur. COSTA MAGNA features an indulgent amount of outdoor space with a spacious and well appointed aft deck, perfect for relaxing with a cold drink. The open upper deck is well suited for large cocktail parties as well as private lounging so don’t forget to pack your sunglasses.

Hot off the press, the SWATH Electra Limosine Tender!

This year’s Electric & hybrid Marine World Expo saw the launch of the SWATH Electra Glide Limousine Tender. This revolutionary vessel is the world’s first Carbon Neutral Solar Hybrid  SuperYacht Tender that combines both the environmental benefits of solar electric sustainability with the no sea sickness comfort of an anti-roll SWATH vessel.

This boat, built by Nedship, is not short on power and is powered by twin 300hp Regen Electric outboards the Tender’s maximum speed a very impressive 45 knots. Her 20kw a day solar panels produce up to 7Mws annually, which at a speed of 16 knots is enough energy to travel more than 1,000 carbon neutral nautical miles, pretty impressive!

 This tender is not just for getting from A to B. This luxurious vessel features a galley and and bar which means she is perfect for day expeditions and for exploring remote and hard to reach beaches and coves on your luxury yacht charter. Other mod-cons include hot and cold air conditioning, surround sound entertainment, two flat screen TVs and opening gull wing windows on each side of the craft.

Richard Sauter Head of design noted “The SWATH Electra Glide Tender takes us to an era of Responsible Luxury Yachting, where zero carbon solar power is a standard requirement and anti-roll, full standing spaciousness is taken for granted.”

INDULGING on a Day Charter on the French Riviera!

Charles, Cordy and Tom from the Boatbookings.com team in the South of France were lucky enough to enjoy a day out on INDULGENCE OF POOLE yesterday, a beautifully maintained Mangusta 86 motor yacht based in the heart of the Old Port of Cannes. Following our day out, we cannot recommend her highly enough for day, weekend and week-long charters on the French Riviera and in surrounding areas.

INDULGENCE

The team were warmly welcomed by an enthusiastic captain Yanko and his partner and chief stewardess, fresh canapés and some lovely wines were enjoyed following a viewing of the two large master and VIP cabins with double beds and two further twin cabins, comfortably accommodating two. INDULGENCE is also perfect for meetings with her large saloon and separate dining area seating 12 for a more formal venue. On the aft deck, they said goodbye to Cannes on a beautiful Monday morning and sped along the coast to the beautiful bay of Theoule where we anchored for the day. A delicious lunch onboard was enjoyed by all – the refreshing classic of Parma ham and melon, followed beautifully roasted chicken with garlic purée and chocolate cheesecake with crème anglaise to finish!

After soaking up the sun, taking a swim and enjoying the extensive water sports inventory we headed back to Cannes where Yanko showed us that INDULGENCE can match the newer Mangusta cruising at an impressive 29 knots! A thrill for everyone, whilst enjoying the comfort of a much larger yacht.
