Pershing Broker

Tuesday, May 1st, 2012

For over 25 years Pershing has been designing, producing and marketing luxury “open” motor yachts. Pershing’s superior performance, top quality materials and ultimate comfort designed interiors make it one of the leading names in the “Made in Italy” fiberglass open yacht sector. Advanced construction methods, powerful engines reaching 7400 MHP and the use of surface propellers, hydro jets and gas turbines all combine to give Pershing yachts a distinctively sporting trim and peak speeds of up to 52 knots.

In 1981, three friends with a passion for boating, Tilli Antonelli, Fausto Filippetti and Giuliano Onori and founded Cantieri Navali dell’Adriatico and the first boat was launched. Four years later, in 1985 with the help of yacht designer Fulvio De Simoni, Pershing was born. The first Pershing, an 45’ open yacht was designed and became a huge success. Pershing brought the comfort and privacy of the classic motoryachts to the open motoryachts. In 1998, the company joined the Ferretti Group, a leading enterprise in the luxury yacht sector.

Passion, creativity and continuous research of innovation have always been the primary values of the Pershing. The company’s unrelenting search for new stimuli and new directions for international growth is demonstrated by the way it has developed its know-how in order to adapt certain models to meet the demands of a wide range of markets.

Atlantic Yacht and Ship shares Pershing’s passion for boating and their open motoryachts. “Blue Water II” is a 2008 62’ Pershing in great condition.

Destination Cat Island

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2012

About 130 miles southeast of crowded tourist ridden Nassau and Paradise Island near the Tropic of Cancer lies the pristine Cat Island. Here one can enjoy the unspoiled beaches, the shelling, snorkeling and explore uninhabited cays and hidden coves. Divers love the coral reefs and blue holes, walls, caves and shipwrecks.

The reef harbor in Port Howe is a beautiful destination, if you come from the south in calm weather. The range markers for the break in the reef are hard to see, but in good light the channel is obvious, and you can see well enough to run east to the anchorage. These days there are a couple of resident boats on moorings. Walk ashore, visit the ruins of Deveaux Mansion and enjoy some island flavor and lunch at the small bar and restaurant there.

There is excellent snorkeling in Winding Bay just around the unhabituated bay east of Port Howe. The sportfishing along the edge of the ocean and off Columbus Point is some of the best in the Bahamas.

Follow the coast south west of Port Howe until you reach Hawk’s Nest. The Hawk’s Nest Marina is a 28-slip marina that has all the personalized service and amenities visiting boats require. Two air-conditioned fish-cleaning houses, 40,000-gallon diesel storage, 50 and 100 amp electric pedestals round out the services at Hawk’s Nest. Marina guests can utilize and enjoy all the additional amenities Hawk’s Nest Resort has to offer. The club serves some of the freshest fish around.

If you need a little land time, there are world class accommodations available at Hawk’s Nest. Each beach front room has a breathtaking view of emerald Caribbean waters and a full baths and luxurious robes. They also have two 3 bedroom homes for weekly rental, The Blue Marlin and The Sailfish houses.

Cat Island’s Bight is a favorite place to anchor in the Bahamas. The holding is excellent almost everywhere. The white sand beach runs almost uninterrupted, so landing is easy, and walking is wonderful. New Bight is the hub of the island with a BTC office, Administration office, police station, and regatta site. Lunch at the Blue Bird Cafe is a treat as the Dorsett sisters serve delicious food with down-home charm and hospitality. You should then purchase a couple of bottles of water and head up to the Hermitage, Mount Alvernia is the highest elevation in the country at 206 feet above sea level. The hill served as the hermitage of Father Jerome Hawes, who settled on The Bahamas Island in 1939, where he built a miniature monastery and hand-carved steps out of solid rock. On your way back down stop and get a fresh loaf of bread at Olive Kings to take onboard.

Named after the pirate Arthur Catt, much of this island has not been developed, which provides a unique vacation for those who want to get away in a private, relaxing, laid-back environment. There are fascinating ruins, hardwood coppices, beautiful walks, and good places to eat along the way. Untainted by tourism, there is much to be discovered on Cat Island in The Bahamas Out Islands.

Ready to go? Let Atlantic Yacht and Ship get you started on your exciting journey. A leader in the yacht and brokerage industry for 51 years, Atlantic Yacht and Ship has the right vessel for you. Their experienced staff can handle the entire process of purchasing a yacht or boat. Looking for a custom built 151’ six stateroom yacht or a family fun boat, Atlantic Yacht and Ship can assist you!

Your iPhone Sets Sail

Tuesday, March 27th, 2012

There seems to be no end to the uses of iPhones and iPads on yachts these days. There are applications from the simple like the Ship Compass to the helpful Anchor Alert. Atlantic Yacht and Ship picked a few of our favorites to share with you.

ShipLog App for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad $ .99

The practice of keeping a log book goes back hundreds of years to early explorers that kept logs and charts of new lands and waters. ShipsLog allows you to quickly create logs with pictures and text. It also fills in all the weather, course and speed for you using the GPS and internet. Just press the weather button in the upper left corner after you create the log. It also allows you to send the data with picture using email. There is a live map that shows logged and current location. You can take a picture or pick from your albums. You can press a button that will take you to Google maps and it will show your location. The email also has a link that goes to Google maps and shows your location. The top of the screen displays the GPS accuracy so you can wait for the best signal before starting a new log. The logs can also be named so you can easily find a trip log. All logs are dated and have the time stamped to them.

This app saves you lots of time and makes it easy to create your logs. You can use this for any type of trip log not just nautical. A fun way get the family involved and to preserve the memories of your trip.

NOAA Buoy and Tide Data App for iPhone $1.99

Whether you are a fisherman, recreational boater or looking to pull your superyacht into harbor this app provides you the needed information on tides and water levels. NOAA is the organization responsible for maintaining that kind of data through the system of buoys that they have available and it is really tapping into that network that will give you the chance to get the best information available to you given your current situation. The NOAA Buoy and Tide Data iPhone app allows you to customize this network by tide, specifying a specific name for a buoy and getting it on screen. Similarly, you can search for all of the buoys near you and pick the ones that you want through the use of the GPS functionality built into your iPhone device. No more looking up tide charts and maps all the information you need is at your fingertips.

iNavX™ – Marine Navigation App for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad $49.99

Included detailed chart coverage: West Coast, Gulf Coast, East Coast, Great Lakes, Alaska, Hawaii, and US Virgin Islands.

With iNavX™ you can use the built in location services (i.e. GPS, cell tower, Wi-Fi) to plot your position in real-time on the multi-touch scrolling and zooming and rotating (including course up) marine chart. Using the iPhone’s, iPod touch’s and iPad’s Wi-Fi connection, iNavX™ can act as a repeater for popular marine navigation software that supports NMEA data over TCP/IP such as MacENC and Coastal Explorer.
