AHOY MATES 
THE YACHT 
Plan now for a most memorable vacation. 
Pack yoxir seabags and lay aboard. Heave 
up the anchor^ make sail, and slip out 
to sea for a voyage of adventure whether 
it be the historic whaleing and fishing 
ports of New England, or the pirate lairs 
of the Caribbean. 
CHARTERING 
Chartering has many advantages. You take 
over operation of a large yacht for a 
stipulated period. In most cases, it 
allows one to enjoy a much larger boat 
than he could afford on a year ro\md 
basis. A boat the size of Blue Goose 
will be manned with a competent crew, 
h ired by the charterer. The crew will 
take care of the routine chores leaving 
you free to enjoy the pleasures of sail- 
ing. If you are limited in boating ex- 
perience, or would rather take it easy, 
the crew will operate the boat by them- 
selves. At termination of the charter 
you can leave the bo at ^ forget the burden 
of maintenance, and return to your normal 
way of life carefree and refreshed. Best 
of all, the cost is less than would be 
incurred at most resorts. 
ENTERTAINMENT 
Aboard your yacht there is a variety of 
entertainment. Sailing a large schooner 
is a satisfying experience in itself. 
Swimming can be enjoyed from the schoon- 
er, at some quiet anchorage, or from one 
of the fine beaches. Skin diving and 
spearfishing are especially enjoyable in 
Southern waters. Limited fishing can be 
done from the schooner or dingy. There 
are many historic points to visit both 
North and South. Explorers will find 
coves, islands, caves, etc. Song fests, 
beach parties, and parties on deck under 
the stars, are fine ways to end a days 
sail. Photographers will find a wealth 
of material dviring any voyage. 
Blue Goose is 70 • overall, 16 ' beam and 
9' draft. The boat has roongr comfortable 
accommodations for a party of six. This 
boat is a husky, sea kindly vessel pat- 
terned after the old Glouster fishing 
schooners, some of the finest sea boats 
ever developed, and is often the subject 
of shoreside admirers. Her sail rig is 
easily handled with limited crew. Flush 
deck construction leaves plenty of space 
to work the ship and lounge at the same 
time. A 12* dingy and outboard are at 
yotir disposal. Blue Goose is diesel pow- 
ered with a separate auxiliary generator 
insuring an adequate power supply. Below 
deck the interior is well laid out for a 
charter party. A hatch, in the crew's 
quarters, makes it unnecessary to pass 
through the boat to reach the deck. Gal- 
ley equipment includes bottled gas stove 
and big electric refrigerator. The main 
cabin provides fine lounging and dining 
space, with books, a radio and table for 
games and writing; bunks in this cabin 
convert to seats in the daytime. Owners 
cabin has a bureau, upper and lower bunk 
and separate hatch to the deck. A large 
after cabin sleeps two and contains the 
main companionway. Water and fuel capac- 
ities are large, there are ample lockers 
and drawers, and all cabins have doors 
that can be closed for privacy.
