A second well-appointed and proper yacht is the British-flag motor yacht Miss Charlotte. This attractive green-hulled 49-foot cape trawler also offers two en-suite guest cabins each accommodating two guests. Still a third yacht worthy of special mention is the superbly maintained Astral Music, a 44' ketch flying the British red ensign which offers a spacious teak deck and exclusive appointments for two guests. The crews of T.G. Ellyson, Miss Charlotte, and Astral Music have each sailed the Mediterranean

Gordon Abercrombie, owner and skipper of the T.G. Ellyson, has cruised the Greek islands and
coast of Turkey since 1980. Jennifer Abercrombie, English, Isabelle Outin, French, and others of

may come next, or sailing while trolling for sagacious sea life. Swim stops may be frequent, depending
on inclination and destination. The destination may be an idyllic cove affording opportunity to
snorkel or kayak, or simply to relax and read in the warmth of the sun. And in the
evening guests may wish to enjoy catered dining or the campfire cuisine of an enterprising
restaurateur skilled in the art of preparing fine regional food. Nearby there may be ancient Greek,
Roman, or Byzantine ruins not often seen by tourists, or the ruins of a pirate village climbing
slopes from which watchful eyes once peered out to sea. Alternatively the destination might be a
charming town home to wily rug merchants, to silver shops, or to an agora or bazaar offering a
myriad of shopping opportunities. And likely, in such a town, the dining will be memorable.
