SeaDream Yacht Club, operator of the twin, ultra-luxury, mega-yacht
cruisers SeaDream I and II, has announced its schedules and
itineraries for 2006. They include:
• The French West Indies, Netherlands Antilles and British Virgin
Islands in the Caribbean;

•Croatia, Ukraine, Romania, Egypt, Cyprus, North Africa, Spain the
Mediterranean and the Greek Islands in Europe.

SeaDream I and II will sail in the Caribbean from January through
April 2006 and from November through the end of 2006 and onward. They
will sail in European waters from May through October 2006.

“This is the most ambitious schedule we have put forth since we began
late in 2001,” said Larry Pimentel, CTC, President and CEO of SeaDream
Yacht Club. Included for 2006 are classic cities and resort
destinations and intriguing small and exclusive yachting ports. Most
sailings are seven days but the schedule also features some shorter
sailings ideal for those with time constraints.

New Caribbean ports for 2006 include: La Romana, Dominican Republic;
Saba, Netherlands Antilles; Bequia and Union Island in the Grenadines;
Port Antonio, Jamaica and Portsmouth, Dominica.

New European ports for 2006 include: Trieste and Viareggio, Italy;
Kotor, Montenegro; Port Said and Alexandria, Egypt; Casablanca and
Agadir, Morocco.

Home ports with turnarounds in the Caribbean are San Juan, St. Thomas,
Bridgetown, Antigua and St. Martin. The Antigua and St., Martin
voyages in February, March and April of 2006 are new for SeaDream and
are substitutions for previously announced sailings along Mexico’s
Yucatan Peninsula and Belize.

Home ports with turnarounds in Europe are Nice, Monte Carlo, Venice,
Athens, Istanbul, Dubrovnik, Alexandria, Naples, Seville and Rome.

In 2006, year-end holiday sailings of SeaDream I and II will include
Christmas Eve in Marigot and St. Martin or Union Island in the
Grenadines; and New Year’s Eve at St. Martin or St. Barts.

In both the Caribbean and in Europe SeaDream has frequent late evening
port departures or overnights. Pimentel commented: “It’s a shame to
force guests back aboard and to depart in the early evening hours when
in many ports the action doesn’t get started until quite late.”

“Antigua and St. Martin will support SeaDream’s excellent growth of
European guests. Air transportation from Europe is extensive as it is
from North America,” Pimentel said. SeaDream’s complete 2006 schedules
and itineraries may be found on its
website---www.seadreamyachtclub.com.

SeaDream Yacht Club is the yachting venture by Norwegian entrepreneur
Atle Brynestad who founded Seabourn Cruise Line, and Larry Pimentel
who was president of Seabourn under Brynestad and later president and
CEO of the merged Cunard and Seabourn. Pimentel is President and CEO
of the Coconut Grove, Florida-headquartered SeaDream Yacht Club and a
co-owner. Brynestad is Chairman. The company operates SeaDream I and
SeaDream II, twin, ultra luxury, mega yachts that operate on seven-day
sailings in the Caribbean, the Mediterranean, Dalmatian Coast and the
Black Sea. The yachts are not only ideal for discerning travelers
seeking an unstructured and casual holiday experience but also for
small meetings and incentive groups or individual private family
gatherings. They are available for full charter. SeaDream I and II
shared the top Five-Star Club award in the Berlitz Ocean Cruising and
Cruise Ships 2003, 2004 and recently in the 2005 guidebook. For this
guidebook author Douglas Ward created a special category “Utterly
Exclusive” for only three vessels he said to be above luxury. Of the
three, two were SeaDream I and II. In the Americas the SeaDream Yacht
Club reservations can be made by contacting your travel professional.

Great ships!

But if it is a concern to you, make sure that you (or your travel agent)
find out in advance before you book:

-whether there will be a large number of children on board

-whether there will be one (or more) affinity groups on board

The Seadream gets both, and with only 110 (max) passengers, 1/3 or more of
the spaces filled by children or groups can make an unpleasant difference in
the quality of your trip.
