Private Yachting with &

If you are adventurous and fit, we welcome you to experience the thrill of private yachting with real professionals!

Not the kind of relaxed Mediterranean cruise you immediately think of when you say the word 'Yachting' But the wild (yet safe) and exciting voyages that "Peter I" Yacht can take you on around Greenland, Antarctica, Norway and more relaxed voyages from St Petersburg to Arkhangelsk.

It is THE Russian Yacht which has completed the circumnavigation of the seas of the Arctic Ocean and returned to Saint Petersburg from where she started her voyage on June 4, 2010.

According to the captain of the yacht Daniel Gavrilov, before now no vessel in the world could have accomplished a similar journey.
For the first time in the history of seafaring a ship has rounded the Arctic, after passing through the Northeast and the NorthwestPassage in a single navigation, without the help of icebreakers.
