The amazing Privilege Serie 6 – Rolls Royce of the Sea A walk through guided tour by Brent Vaughan There are few that catamaran manufactures in the world you could compare to Rolls Royce, but that’s where Privilege comfortably sit in the spectrum of builders.

I was lucky enough to spend a day exploring the latest 6 Serie recently launched and on display at the Prilege factory located at the famous Les Sables d’Olone on the Atlantic Coast of France in the Bay of Biscay.     Les Sables d’Olone is famous for the Vendee Globe round the world yacht race that starts and finishes…

  Aquila 44 3rd Charter Boat for Arundell Family Wendy and Tony Arundell were all smiles as they stepped onboard their new Aquila 44 power catamaran “Champagne Sunset” in the first week of 2018 with their growing family, setting the tone of exciting year ahead on the water. After falling in love with the Aquila 44 at the Sanctuary Cove Boat Show in 2017, they placed an order on the spot and immediately set plans in motion to enter her into a bareboat charter operation with Cumberland Charter Yachts. “We didn’t actually come to the boat show to buy the Aquila,” Tony said of their trip to Sanctuary Cove visit last year, “In fact we only came onboard to rule it out from our short list, but the minute we saw it, we fell in love and the rest is history”.

Champagne Sailing – a Seawind 1160 Resort for Charter in Sydney  What an incredible summer it has been so far! Tim & Julie were lucky enough to buy a brand new catamaran during the Winter of 2017, and took ownership of her in December 2017, smack bang in the middle of peak season!! They named her ‘Champagne Sailing’ as she truly represents our company, a great sailing catamaran, perfect for relaxing onboard and sipping Champagne or your drink of choice.
