Iolanthe of Argyll is
spacious and luxurious. This Beneteau 57 is a true blue
water cruiser that will eat up the miles in comfort and
luxury. Although the heavy displacement (25 tonnes) gives
a smooth steady motion even in the liveliest conditions,
Iolanthe is a fast boat even in light winds and will leave
most yachts far behind. When the wind picks up a bit then,
boy, watch her go.
Your skipper and
host(ess) will ensure that a high level of service
provided on board is as you would expect from a five star
hotel, but the advantage of this dream holiday is that you
can change your scenery to wake up to a different sandy
beach, bay or new historic harbour every day.
Yours to savour are
long, sun-filled days on the water, sailing from pristine
anchorage to scenic cove, dropping anchor to swim, snorkel
or dive in the clearest of turquoise waters….. followed by
evenings of dining on exotic fare, shopping for gold and
Turkish rugs, or joining in on village celebrations, and
dancing well into the night.
As you slip into a daily routine of morning swims, lazy
breakfasts in the cockpit, day sails and afternoon
ramblings ashore, you soon discover that yours is a very
special kind of vacation, one in which time ceases to
matter and the days are recalled by the ports you have
visited and the fabulous sites you have discovered along
the way.
The crew are at your disposal and will see to it that your
days are as full and active or as quiet and restful as you
need them to be. In fact, your only concern is how best to
spend your time: where to go, where to anchor and what to
do ashore by day and by night.
