EP 17 – That Newport Show, Luxury Yachts

The Newport Charter Yacht Show is a trade show of sorts, bringing luxury charter yachts and their brokers together with industry professionals who support the boats, their crews, and provide services to this fascinating travel market. Buck and Helena went aboard several yachts, and this week, they share their discoveries with you. This year’s show was hosted by Newport Shipyard, and featured 29 yachts available for charters in New England, Florida, the Bahamas, and elsewhere. Our guest this week is Dhardra Blake of LuxuryDayCharters.com, a firm offering something a little different – charters by the day. Plus, while down at Newport Shipyard, we dined at Belle’s Cafe. Find out if lunch was delish or a dud. Listen in!
