Default Yacht/Boat Rental
Good day,

My girlfriend and I are going to be staying at the Dreams Palm Beach from 24 Nov - 1 Dec/09. We are looking forward to our vacation and cannot wait to spending time in the Dominican Republic. I was hoping to make the trip even more memorable by asking my girlfriend of 7 years to get married. I have a specific idea in mind that I was hoping someone with knowledge of local businesses can help me with.

Being a NAVY Officer with an obvious love for the ocean, I really would love to arrange a private 4hr evening cruise on board a boat/yacht preferrably with a galley. It would be ideal if a dinner and drinks were served. I assume that if a boat/yacht + Captain could be rented a Chef would not be an issue. Please let me know if there are any businesses or boat/yacht owners that are willing to make a young's couples dreams come true.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
VC

Having done the Tropical Storm Sunset Cruise I can recommend it but it may not be what the OP wants. The meal is at the Jellyfish restaurant after the cruise and it's not a private cruise.

Contact Simon or Isabel at Tropical Storm ( office@tropicalstormdr.com ) and see if they can or will do a private cruise.

Great idea, the fish guy may take you out for a private cruise, he is a great guy and usually does try to accomodate special requests.
