The idea of A Moveable Feast is to give you an opportunity to explore this part of the Eastern Caribbean, relax, eat well and healthily, swim, sunbathe, dine out, cook in, snorkel, lay on the beach, sleep late, snooze when you feel like it, sail the boat, help lift the anchor and hoist the mainsail and just generally enjoy life on the water. The views from the boat are always interesting and usually pleasing to the eye and the soul. Marigot is a busy anchorage and boats are coming and going at all hours. Charter boats, private boats, ferry boats, luxury yachts, mega power boats, sailing school skiffs, dinghies, row boats, they are all here and all contribute to the general mix that make St Martin interesting. At this time of year there is plentiful rainfall and the hill around town are vibrant green. The breeze is still cool, especially at night. In the daytime its hot and the midday sun is intense, so jumping off the back of the boat into the warm turquoise is a delight. When we visit other anchorages and harbors and especially the marine parks system of the French Islands, there are often turtles, rays and reef fish to be found.
Breakfast and a picnic lunch are included in the package but dinner and alcoholic beverages are not. There is plenty of room in the fridge and freezer for anything special you want to bring along and the cupboards are usually well stocked.
Bruce Farr is a well known designer of fast offshore and racing yachts. Beneteau, probably the world's largest and most experienced boat builder, took one of his designs and modified it to suit their clientele, cruisers and charterers who like going fast but are not out and out racers. The result is a blue water boat that is sea-kindly fast and comfortable, and fitted out below with excellent veneered joinery. And, because its a French design, a large galley/cooking area. There are 3 queen size berths, one forward in the master cabin and 2 aft. One is for the skipper, the two others are for the guest
