You start you day preparing the boat for the trip,
checking the weather charts and the fuel. If the winds are
favorable you will sail, but if not you will have to use the motor.
At sundown you will anchor in a marina or another achorage. The
rest of the evening you can hit the local restaurants and clubs or
spend a quiet evening at your boat.
Starting the day
You would normally start the day
with breakfast whether on board or on shore. After the breakfast
depending where you are anchored, you could do some grocery
shopping, swimming, sightseeing, fishing or simply
preparing the boat for the trip to the next destination. You would
normally consult weather charts for the day when choosing the route
since a lot of it depends on weather conditions. You might also
want to check your fuel. If no wind is expected, you will be forced
to use the motor.
As the day goes
by...
If the winds are favorable, you
may enjoy the sight and the feel of your charter sailing yacht under full
sails. This also gives you
the opportunity to practice your tacking and jibing. You may also
want to have your lunch while doing all these maneuvers. However,
if you are not such an adventurous type find some nice bay to
anchor and enjoy your lunch in peace.
Time until dinner can also be
spent sailing if the weather permitting. However, a more relaxing
option would be to enjoy the sun and the sea by sunbathing and
swimming.
At sundown
Before the night falls,
find a nice marina or some
peaceful anchorage to
spend the night in. If you opt for the marina, you can spend the
evening exploring the surroundings, enjoying the local cuisine and
nightlife.
