Got the Need for Speed? Charter a Motorboat

If the thought of sailing makes you snooze, The Moorings has two words for you — power yacht. Nauticblue Power Yacht Vacations is a new division of The Moorings, which pioneered the charter sailing fleet 33 years ago (770 sailing yachts at 24 bases around the world). Choose from 34- to 46-foot custom powerboats with room for several for the ultimate adventure-in-style vacation. Launch in St. Thomas and island-hop through the U.S. and British Virgin Islands, or opt for the awesome Abacos Islands of the Bahamas. Outfit your yacht with the proper perks — kayaks, fishing gear, snorkels, maybe even captain and crew — and go float your boat. Summer rates start at $445 per day.
