Charter Description
On board Stargazer we practice a way of life in harmony with nature characterized by the practice of nudity with the intention of encouraging self-respect, respect for others and for the natural world.
Stargazer is a Eco-Friendly Solar Powered Sailing Yacht?
Welcome aboard our home on the water. Captain Cactus and Mate
Betsy look forward to showing our guests the best of The Sea of
Cortez on our 75 ft custom ketch.
She has state of the art
solar panels and storage batteries. We make every effort to sail
as much as possible and use the diesel generator as little as
possible. There are 18 opening hatches, 16 opening port lights
and fans in each cabin that provide great ventilation.
This charter includes the services of Cactus and Betsy as
your expert guides and we provision the Galley and Bar to your
needs.
Prior to your vacation, Captain Cactus will suggest an
itinerary tailored to your preferences. You may have the
opportunity to take the wheel if you wish, or simply sit back,
relax and enjoy all of the pleasures that the islands have to
offer.
The Sea of Cortez - The Aquarium of the World
Imagine an
impossibly beautiful place where the Sonoran Desert meets a
clear blue ocean that is teeming with life – colonies of playful
and mischievous sea lions, flying mobulas (manta rays that leap
out of the water) and endemic species of reef fishes (that only
occur in that part of the world), large colonies of seabirds
nesting and soaring overhead, humpback whales breaching, and
blue whales and large schools of dolphins cruising past.
That
is the Gulf of California, also known as the Sea of Cortez, and
it is one of the most rich and spectacular marine environments
on earth — so much so that it inspired Jacques Cousteau to call
it the “Aquarium of the World.”
