NEW YORK, NY–( EMWNews – March 31, 2008) – As sophisticated travelers seek more active

and enriching vacations for themselves and their families, Burgess, the

global superyacht experts, now offer a one-of-a-kind experience aboard

Seafaris, a 134.5-ft yacht located in Australia’s the Great Barrier Reef.

The vessel was designed and built exclusively for authentic “reef sea-fari”

adventures, including fishing, SCUBA, snorkeling, wakeboarding and

kayaking, which are enhanced by the priceless amenity of the local crew’s

knowledge and expertise on all matters in and out of the water. Week-long

“sea-faris” are priced at roughly $160,000 per week inclusive.

With deluxe accommodations for ten guests in five ensuite staterooms, gym,

hydrotherapy spa, professional fishing equipment, teppanyaki bars, deck

Jacuzzi, and every conceivable watersport, communication and entertainment

gadget imaginable, Seafaris offers the ideal environment for high quality

family time.

According to Captain Duncan Smith, guests are more adventurous aboard

Seafaris because adventure is at their fingertips. Even the names are

exciting: from the north of the Ribbon Reefs all the way to the cape,

families can catch giant trevally, dogtooth and yellow fin tuna, red

emperor, coral trout, golden mackerel, marlin and sailfish. Families dive

and snorkel at Dynamite Pass, Osprey Reef or the Snake Pit, not to mention

Steve’s Bommie and Cod Hole, famous for its schools of friendly giant

potato cod.

Seafaris’ crew provides introductory scuba lessons, and helps experienced

divers explore the Reef. They bait up and unhook beginners’ first catch,

and share inside information with the more expert angler. Seafaris carries

both light and heavy tackle for the sport fishing element as well. The

crew is local and knows every secret nook and cranny. Never mind the

talents of the on-board chef, who cooks fresh catch to perfection on the

yacht’s two outdoor teppanyaki bars.

Below the waves, there are beautiful coral and clam gardens. Families feed

fish in the crystal clear waters of Osprey Reef; swim among massive schools

of barracuda and grouper, and dive, escorted by turtles, to meet huge

pelagic fish, manta rays and minke whales. Best of all, families do not

have to share the best dive sites with anyone else. Novices learn the

basics in safe calm waters of a sand cay or from the yacht’s hydraulic

platform.
