Richard Rome and Lisa Dixon have worked on Promenade for several years now and, after taking nine months off to have vacation time themselves (including SCUBA diving in the Far East, Rich earning his RYA Ocean Yachtmaster, and Lisa studying at Cordon Bleu), they are ready to come back to the Virgin Islands to take care and pamper you on YOUR vacation.

Charter Yacht PROMENADE has lots of fun toys. Ride the Banana! Contact ParadiseConnections.comBecause of their return, Promenade is opening their summer calendar. Promenade is now open for charters crewed by Rich & Lisa beginning July 6, 2009. Please note that July 17-24 is already booked, otherwise they are open and looking forward to having you aboard Promenade. But hurry, as popular boats with popular crew book up fast!

Currently available for Christmas and New Years!!!

Charter Yacht PROMENADE - Enjoy the power lounger - Contact ParadiseConnections.comKerry and Baz will take over from December 2009 through May 30, 2010. Kerry & Bazza have owned and operated Promenade for many years. They work hard to keep Promenade "ship shape" and do an excellent job of taking care of guests aboard. They have pride in their boat and the service they provide, and rightly so. We have had many happy charters and repeat guests aboard Promenade. Our problem with booking Promenade nowadays, is that they are too often already booked! It's a Catch-22 situation. We are happy that Rich & Lisa are back which gives us more charter weeks to fill :)
