“Enjoyed the vacation but would have liked to sail.”

We took a cabin charter on a sailing Catamaran out of Nassau February 8th to 15th. The boat, food, and destinations were all great. For me its more about the journey than the destination and I had really looked forward to a few hours per day of sail…

“The trip was very good and the catering exceeded expectations”

The crew were very good and the catering exceeded my expectations. Our captain Hugo did more than expected to ensure we had a good time. The boat was OK considering its age but the cabins were hot at night. After first few nights I slept in the cockp…

What is a Cabin Cruiser Sailing Trip?

Dreaming of a unique and hassle-free sailing experience in 2025? 12 Knots offers unforgettable cabin cruiser vacations and sailing trips for solo travelers, couples, and small groups.

Cabin charter price

Let's start with the price. Of course, there is a number of offers with different price levels depending on destination, duration or type of the yacht. But in most cases price for the cabin charter equals to the price of a hotel room and varies from 100 to 250 US dollars per person. This price includes meal, beverages including fuel costs, berths for the yacht ets. So, by taking this charter you receive all-inclusive sailing vacation on a luxury yacht.

Friends to go with for a sailing vacation

I do not have travel mates for this kind of trip, so there is no chance for me to go. This is perhaps the most annoying misconception, because during this yacht trip, you will find new friends and travel mates. With cabin charter you get luxury yacht, professional capital, crew, cook and even detailed itinerary with marked places of interests. Everything is done for you to indulge your sailing trip with no organizational things to worry about. All you have to do is just to pick up your destination and date of the cabin charter and make an on-line reservation on our web site.

Sailing tours options

Sailing trips are different, and are not only extreme when you spend days and nights not seeing the ground. Of course you can also find this kind of sailing tours offered by 12 Knots, for example trip on one of the most famous Russian frigates Pallada used by Naval Academy to train cadets. But this kind of sailing is for adventurers and extreme lovers, while the majority of sailing trips passages are made along the shoreline with a mandatory daily stop in some beautiful place or comfortable yacht marina.

All sailing trips can be divided into 2 categories:

  • Cruise sailing vacations
  • Regatta trips and passages 

Let's see what is the fundamental difference between these two concepts / proposals. 

By the cabin sailing vacation - is unhurried, measured rest on board of a luxury yacht perfect for romantic trip or a family holiday. But even though this type of sailing tour is completely different from a tour on a cruise ship, where only ten guests instead of thousands of tourists are travelling together with you.

Yacht regatta, or sailing race and passages are completely different types of sailing tour to a leisurely vacation on a luxury yacht. 

Sailing race or sailing regatta - sports event - competition of men and boats. This type of sailing tour is more suitable for energetic people, venturous, those who do not want to lie imposingly on the deck with glass of white wine, but those who prefer to work in a team, compete and dream of getting trophy and feel the taste of victory. 

Offshore sailing passages – prepared especially for those who would like to try something special. Offshore passages can be divided into two categories: 

Transatlantic Rally – a chance to cross Atlantic like famous "tea clippers" in the ancient times sailing from England to Canary Islands and finally to Caribbean. Watch keeping day and night, practicing seamanship and celestial navigation – and as a reward sailing with dolphins, watching amazing sunsets and sunrises, great team spirit and finally, the long-awaited earth appearance on the horizon. Right choice of sailing tour time, professional skipper and instructor will make your sailing vacation safe and fun. 

Sailing ship adventures on clipper or frigate. If you want to try exiting sailing adventure, you may join educational sailing trip on the famous Russian frigate "Pallada". 96-meter long, three-mast ship - the winner of many international regattas and boat shows and one of few ships that made round the world sailing trip. Thousands of marine students were trained on this ship. Choose your route, date, and enjoy sailing tour on one of the most famous sailing ships. 

To sum up, we can say with confidence that there are number of yacht tours by the cabin charter, so everyone can find the one that will fit their needs and expectations. Our web site offers more than 100 sailing trips and sailing vacations options available by the cabin charter.
