This Summer, Cruise the Cote on a Luxury Yacht Charter and Help Change the World
Charter planners at 1-800-YACHTCHARTER transform a luxury lifestyle vacation into a chance to save the oceans. Hollywood's favorite marine-life charity to receive donations in the name of yacht charter customers.
(Vocus/PRWEB ) May 12, 2009 -- With every yacht charter booked, 1-800-YACHTCHARTER will donate 5% of the proceeds to global ocean charity OCEANA, in the name of the customer. By making a donation on their behalf, 1-800-YACHTCHARTER is helping their clients play a direct role in protecting the world’s oceans for future generations.

"This is a wonderful opportunity to raise awareness about ocean conservation," says Jana Sheeder, CEO of 1-800-YACHTCHARTER. "The chance to interact with dolphins and whales and to see coral reefs that are teeming with life up close makes a yacht charter a unique, memorable, and life-changing experience. Protecting our oceans is the only way to ensure future generations can enjoy these same marine life encounters."
Sheeder believes a charitable partnership with her clients can help the effort to save the seas. "Our clients have big hearts when it comes to charity and worthwhile causes. I am certain they will be proud to have a portion of their vacation expenditure donated in their names. Imagine snorkeling among a pod of dolphins, knowing that you are helping protect those creatures from pollution and possible extinction."
Sheeder has selected OCEANA to receive the donations. A leader in ocean conservation, OCEANA receives strong backing from Hollywood's motion picture and television industries. Actor Ted Danson serves on the charity's Board and is outspoken about the group's efforts to reduce climate change and safeguard marine life.
Oceana was prominently featured in the 2008 Green Issue of Vanity Fair and was also named by Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine as a "charity that deserves your dollars."
Additional eco-stars who lend their support to Oceana include Harrison Ford, Salma Hayek, Brooke Shields, Diane Lane, Jamie Lee Curtis, Diane Keaton, Kelsey Grammar, Noah Wyle, Al Gore, Nicholas Cage, Pierce Brosnan, Amanda Beard, Eric Roberts, Ed Begley Jr, Jason Priestly, Jeff Goldblum, Beau Bridges, Lauren Hutton, and Sam Waterson.
For years, celebrities, corporate leaders, and their families have spent their summer holidays cruising the Cote d'Azur on luxury megayachts. Far from the tourist crowds and the paparazzi, charterers enjoy all of the amenities of a 5-star resort in the ultraprivate setting of a multimillion dollar superyacht.
One of the great distinctions of a yachting vacation is the chance to interact with nature from the privacy, safety, and comfort of a megayacht. You carry all of your aquatic exploration toys with you - from kayaks to snorkel gear to scuba equipment. Some of the megayachts even have small submarines for clients to explore coral reefs and observe marine life.
World Oceans Day is June 8, 2009. New charter inquiries received after May 1st and then confirmed via full payment are eligible for the donation. Charters must take place June through October, 2009.
In business for over 30 years, 1-800-YACHTCHARTER (formerly SailAway Yacht Charter Consultants, Inc.) represents a fleet of the newest and largest yachts in the world’s most desirable destinations. 1-800-YACHTCHARTER
