Yacht Charter, Latest News
Two additional yachts arrive this month.
We are excitedly awaiting the arrival of a Beneteau Cyclades 393 and Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 45 this month (April). This brings the fleet to 6 and the new yachts fill the gaps. We can now offer 34, 36, 39, 45, and 47 feet plus the Lagoon 400 catamaran. Both new boats are the ideal layout for charter, the 393 has 3 cabins and 2 heads and the Sun Odyssey 45 has the clever convertible 4 cabin layout. We simply remove the parttion in the front cabin to produce a huge 3 cabin layout with two heads. Rumour has it she may also be getting Air Conditioning and a Microwave too.
Sun Odyssey 45
All change again!
We had hoped for a slightly more relaxed season this year following our move to Palmiye Hotel. Unfortunately due to some planning problems. the increased jety is going to be shorter than planned. This gave us a choice of Inconvenienced clients or move again. We chose the later. We now have exclusive use of the new Dogan Hotel quay adjacent to Marti Marina. Many of our regulars really enjoyed the reception and service at the Dogan Hotel. Now, its even better, as we are on site. This means Hotel and transfers are now seamless, and a short walk to the restaurant. The new toilets and showers built last year are perfect for our clients too.
Online Booking
Perfect Sailing now have full online booking available via secure crdit card payment directly from our web site.
" Checking yacht availabilty has been available since we launched our first web site. It is now really easy and convienient to pay for your sailing holiday online. A big advantager is, we do not charge the client for the service, unlike many of our competitors who add an additional 2%" said Kevin Cooke, Drector & Partner this week (20/02/2012)
This is the first of the enhancements to the Perfect Sailing website promised for 2012
New Web Site - at last!
It has been a long time coming, but its here at last. Conceived in April last year, it's been a labour of love with a steep learning curve. Lots of refinements will occur in the coming months, but it is a better reflection of Perfect Sailing than before. The previous web site was built in a hurry, with only 3 weeks available from inception to launch. This one has taken many months, as again it's an in house production, that has to be fitted in around everything else. We should have learned a lesson the first time! We hope you like it, and let us know as you find the undoubted errors that lurk. Web site No.3 is already being rumoured.
