All itineraries are customized based on the charterer’s preference and, most notably, the weather.
The charter season in New England starts late spring and ends in early October. The weather is cooler except for July and August, when there could be hot days and cool evenings. Traveling with a selection of clothing for local weather is essential.
Many yachts relocate from Florida, the Bahamas, and the Caribbean to New England for the charter season. Sailboats, motor-yachts, and a few catamarans are the usual charter options.
