Thanksgiving special for m/y TOUCH

The motoryacht TOUCH is offering a special rate of $50,000, plus expenses, for a 7-night charter between November 22 – 30, 2006 in St. Maarten. This is a $15,000 savings.

What a wonderful way to celebrate Thanksgiving with your friends and family!

TOUCH is a 120-foot custom 2004 motor yacht, skippered by Capt. David Rutherford plus a crew of six. TOUCH is perfect for four couples as they can accommodate up to 8 guests in four staterooms with King-sized berths. But, of course, you can charter TOUCH for two, if you wish to be decadent for your anniversary, honeymoon, birthday, or whatever :)

We visited TOUCH at the St. Maarten Charter Yacht Exhibition last December and we were very impressed with the yacht. The Master cabin with its own private deck is quite cool. One unique feature they have is a jacuzzi just behind the aft exterior seating area on the main deck.



They have satellite TV aboard so you will not miss any of the games over Thanksgiving weekend (unless you want to!).

Here are two electronic brochures you can view for M/Y TOUCH:

• Brochure #1
• Brochure #2

Feel free to contact Paradise Connections to book this yacht or for more information. You may get our email address and phone numbers HERE.
