What to Expect Onboard:

BENETEAU OCEANIS 40CC with teak deck for your comfort, there are only two models in the US and only one with teak deck.

Suffice it to say; the Beneteau Oceanis 40 Center Cockpit optimizes comfort and easy living in a way that few boats in this category can approach. It is, in simple terms, a nicely turned out cruiser.

An attractive yacht with nice lines when viewed from ashore. The deep secure feeling centre cockpit with fixed screen/sprayhood/bimini combination gives excellent protection from the elements, and the cutter rig and in-mast furling mainsail give a versatile sail plan and good performance.

Going below decks you enter the saloon which has 'U' shaped seating around the saloon table to starboard and a very well equipped chart table and navigation area is to port. There are plenty of opening ports giving excellent ventilation and lots of natural light. The engine compartment is located under the cockpit sole and has good access fore and aft and is spotlessly clean, in keeping with the rest of the boat.

The owners cabin aft (a very popular feature of these yachts) boasts a huge amount of space you would normally only expect on a much larger yacht, with its double centerline berth, vanity unit, and excellent storage. There is a generously sized en-suite heads compartment with separate shower stall.

The en-suite double guest cabin is forward of the saloon with a very practical and well thought out layout. The double berth is offset to starboard, with stowage and a settee to port and the heads/shower compartment located in the forepeak area. This is a clever design that maximizes the use of the available space.

Beneteau have been a family-owned firm since their inception in 1884, and have maintained a fierce pride in their products quality, performance and value for money throughout that time. Other members of the Beneteau Group include Jeanneau, Lagoon, and CNB - between them they offer a huge range of production cruisers and racers, powerboats, catamarans, and luxury custom yachts.

Come and enjoy a great sailing day aboard a beautiful sailing boat!

We are located in Coconut Grove, only 10 minutes from downtown Miami, and right in front of beautiful Biscayne Bay, only a few minutes motor-sail rides from the marina to the open Bay, more time to sail.
Because of this, we can offer a two-hour minimum (dock to dock) private sailing tours.
Additional hours are required to view the entire bay. With additional time we can sail around Cape Florida Lighthouse into "No Name Harbor". All of our long trips (3 to 8 hrs) have enough time to anchor and swim if you wish. Every day is different as the winds and currents dictate our best travel directions, no two trips are exactly alike.

Morning sailing charters start as early as 10 am; the most popular time to sail is during sunset, which starts between 3 pm and 4 pm and ending between 7 pm and 8 pm in the summer months, one hour earlier in the winter.

We accommodate small groups who enjoy sailing, and we want you to participate as much, or as little, as you would like. Guests can sit back and relax or pilot the sailboat and be as active in the operation of the boat as they wish. Formal sailing instructions can be given as well. Sailing provides the perfect atmosphere to relax and get away from it all.

We also can accommodate large groups for corporate events; we can gather from 2 to 10 sailboats for a sailing regatta.

Non-alcoholic beverages are included with the charters; the fridge is fully stocked with Coke, Ginger Ale, Juices, and bottled water. You can bring your own bottle of wine or champagne.

See our menu page for options for appetizers or dinners, in all of our long trips (3 to 8 hrs) dinner or lunch can be served aboard our vessel, it is very comfortable and since we have a generator aboard we can use our huge dinning table inside our vessel with full air condition.

For that very special occasion, birthdays, anniversaries, bachelorettes or just getting together on a very special place "the ocean" make sure you ask how we can help assist in your planning. We have dozens of romantic marriage proposals each year, and we go along way to make sure everything is perfect! We can arrange many different situations so your loved one will not suspect a thing, photography is included to capture every moment.

We are fortunate to have our first mate as a professional photographer. Every image was captured by Mabel Nino herself. Many of Mabel's images have made their way into magazines and brochures around the world.

Having a photographer on staff not only saves you time looking for one but also saves you a ton of money.

Message us for a quote and find out different package offers. Professional prints are extra but very affordable and available upon request, you can also make prints on your own with the digital downloads. Normally a photographer will have a sitting fee of up to $1,300 or more and then you still have to pay for the images. Not with us, with a booked charter, pay one small fee and get all the images on a DVD. View some of our past proposals.

If you wish to have that special occasion fully documented make sure you request it when you book, otherwise you will only end up with a few shots which we will send to your email. If you wish not to have your photo taken just let us know and we will stick with the scenery. One of the most romantic settings one could imagine.
