COMMERCIAL CHARTERS

"Dolphin" will carry a crew of four to six and provide private accommodations for 8-12 guests in six double staterooms on extended cruises or charters of a week or longer duration. For Affinity groups where everyone is "Family", the boat can accommodate 25 to 35 overnight in mild weather and conditions. For daysail cruises, the boat can accommodate up to 49 passengers. For events on deck while docked, the boat can accommodate up to 200 people.

Traditional Dive Charter / Ocean Adventure Packages - Dolphin will be equipped with a new air compressor and tank filling station, a minimum of 16 dive tanks and all of the equipment and accessories necessary to support daily diving for the guests and crew. There will be at least one PADI or NAUI certified Dive Master on board to lead dives during all commercial dive charters. A number of dive charter packages will be offered each year at many of the most popular and best dive destinations throughout the world as well as to some lesser known and off the beaten path, more exotic locations.

Eco-Tours and Adventure Travel - Dolphin will be an excellent vehicle and platform from which guests can visit and explore a number of the world's most interesting and exotic locations. Cocos Island off of Costa Rica, the islands of the Caribbean including Cuba, the Black Sea, the Galapagos Islands, the calving glaciers of Greenland, the Orinoco River in Venezuela, the Amazon River, swimming with dolphins at many locales, the west coast of British Columbia, the coast of Alaska, the Indian Ocean, the coast of Australia and the Mediterranean are just a few of the destinations in the world which will be offered for a number of voyages each year.

Health and Fitness Spa Cruises - Healthy vacations with low fat high protein meals and including hiking, yoga, massage, swimming and other healthy fitness activities. Dolphin will offer a number of cruises each year in this genre, either through established Spa Travel firms such as Global Fitness Adventures, KE Adventure Travel and other similar companies, or as independently planned and produced packages using our own staff, guides, teachers and facilitators.

Affinity Groups - Affinity group travel for small workshops, seminars, satsang or just to spend time with an established teacher, author, healer or an individual who has attained a certain amount of notoriety and celebrity. Dolphin will be offered as a floating hotel/destination/venue to groups which have an established author, leader or teacher at their core.

Educational Programs - Dolphin will be offered to prep schools and colleges as a unique opportunity for a small group of students to spend a week or a month learning about sailing, navigation and the ocean environment. Dolphin will also be offered to professional groups such as the American Medical Association, the American Dental Association and the state licensing boards for professionals in many other fields which have continuing education requirements which must be met by their members on a yearly basis to retain their licenses to practice their profession.

Gourmet Cruises - One unique type of cruise that Dolphin will offer is a Gourmet Cruise with a famous chef. Chef's from the leading restaurants in the world will spend a week or three on the boat during a vacation time, slow time or leave of absence from their restaurant as the guest chef and offer a special menu and dining experience. The chef will plan the menu, ordering all of the wine and food provisions, and preparing all the meals with the help of the Dolphin crew or even perhaps with the help of the guests themselves as in a cooking school class.

Day Cruises / Parties - Dolphin will be available for corporate, family and affinity group parties and promotional events on a daily basis and will be US Coast Guard certified to carry up to 49 passengers under sail, 100 passenger under power for harbor cruises and 200 people on deck for dockside events.

Advance reservations and bookings for any of the above types of charters are invited and welcome to help with the restoration and refit of the boat.
