Sail Adventures and Luxury Yacht, with Nowboat
Lookng for sail adventures? Hong-Kong based nowboat is the first all-in-one online seafaring platform, connecting travelers and seafaring operators in a matter of two clicks, and providing marine NGOs with a reliable fundraising platform.
Before the creation of nowboat by Italian entrepreneur and designer Giovanni Alessi Anghini (we recently interviewed), booking sailing adventures meant browsing the Internet for hours, drifting through scores of slow, old fashioned and poorly maintained sites. Nowboat aims to collect the world’s best yacht and sail adventures in one user-friendly platform, allowing operators reach an ever-growing audience and granting access to digital marketing instruments, while introducing travelers to hundreds of trusted operators in 245 locations worldwide.
Nowboat also supports over 60 projects run by marine conservation NGOs worldwide – among the charities supported we can mention Mission Blue, led by legendary oceanographer Sylvia Earle and also supported by Richard Branson, and Plastic Pollution Coalition, founded by artist and activist Dianna Cohen, who is campaigning for the ban of single use plastic.
One feature that sets nowboat apart from competitors is that besides renting boats and chartering yachts, the platform allows travelers to book ‘adventures’, ranging from diving or snorkeling day trips to multi-day sailing expeditions as far afield as Antarctica and New Zealand. There are also hundreds of adventures on offer in well-established sailings destinations like Indonesia, Maldives, Mauritius and the Mediterranean.
Here are 5 of the best sail adventures and yacht charters available on nowboat for next Summer, to get an idea of what the platform has to offer.
