Re: Favorite Destinations, Do not Miss!

There isn’t a single destination mentioned in the last 3 pages that has not appealed to me in the past. But as a professional taking the rich and famous to most of them….. what makes a “favorite”?

To me, it has always been the ‘next destination’.
The research, the planning, the anticipation and finally the satisfaction of arriving has always excited me to discover what would become the next one?

Now, many sea miles later and with my own yacht and family, it is no longer the destination, but the journey that excites me…… I could not be happier with my destiny!

Re: Favorite Destinations, Do not Miss!

For me it's

St Lawrence estuary including Saguenay river for its beauty, remoteness, and a plethora of wild life,
Maine, especially Mount Desert island, for its beauty, people, and chasing lobster boats for some cheap-cheap lobster,
Exumas for getting away from it all and snorkeling,
South West Turkey for its craziness, people, and beauty,
South Africa for beauty and wild life.

By when?!! Not much happens unless you attach a "by when" to it. So, By When?
