Situated in the heart of Europe and in central Switzerland, Lake Lucerne offers the perfect destination for a boat trip for families, couples and friends. The lake is special because it has a very unusual shape, with bends and turns and four arms. A yacht charter on Lake Lucerne (Vierwaldstättersee in German) boasts wonderful views of the Swiss mountains, such as the famous Rigi and Pilatus. The lake is also well-known for the popular and famed cities Lucerne and Weggis, which are the sites of Switzerland’s oldest history. We currently offer two amazing yachts for private hire for an unforgettable time on Lake Lucerne, the Sunseeker Manhattan 60 and the Galeon 440 Fly.
Chartering a luxury yacht that can accommodate up to 36 guests overnight opens the door to a more expansive and flexible luxury experience.

Think a yacht charter for 20 guests, 30 guests or even up to 36 guests. A mega yacht charter but for larger groups, at competitive rates.

Asia and the Pacific is a vibrant vast region that is explored best from the vantage point of the ocean.

Wherever you choose to go, chartering a yacht with BoatAffair Asia Pacific is a highly personalised experience involving personal support from the BoatAffair Asia Pacific MD — Andrew.
The Pacific Ocean is a vast region that is 630,000 times larger than the UK and contains over 25000 individual islands. The oceans name comes from the Portuguese ‘Mar Pacifico’ or ‘Peaceful Sea’. The oceans vastness presents a logical challenge for sailing but the regions relative isolation from large population cents is also what helps preserve its natural beauty. BoatAffair Asia Pacific is growing its portfolio of Pacific products but for the moment it focuses primarily on 4 ‘Ambassadors’ of the Pacific. These include French Polynesia, Fiji, Tonga and Samoa. Each of these regions presents the very best of what the Pacific has to offer future ocean borne visitors. Here is our list, in no particular order, of the top 5 places to charter in the Pacific.
