The majority of our readers will be feeling the crisp autumn nip in the air foretelling that winter is quickly approaching. Kids are back in school, there's baseball's World Series this month, American football season is up and running... but, don't worry about missing a bowl game as we do have TV down here :) And, bien sûr, there's Halloween at the end of the month! Fancy an excuse to don a pirate costume while sailing in the Caribbean? Here's a few more red-letter days of note for this month:
Beat the post-summer blahs and work on getting those toes tan again. Start planning your winter sailing vacation now while there is still a decent selection of yachts. We have listed a selection of yachts still available for the holidays (see below). Christmas, New Year's, Spring Break, and Easter always fill up fast so, as my mom used to say, "Get a move on". Plus, there are some last-minute specials for October barge vacations, as well as some barges have Early Bird Charter Specials for the 2011 barging cruise season... Check it out!
