Charter to Antarctica, South Georgia and Falklands from S. America
Hi,
My name is Stewart McPherson.
I am trying to organise a private charter of a steel hulled yacht to visit the Antarctic Peninsula, Deception Island, Elephant Island, South Georgia and the Falklands from February 19th to March 18th 2014.
This would be leaving from Punta Arenas (Chile).
Would anyone be interested in coming? I am looking for three adventurous but sensible nature-enthusiasts to make the trip viable.
Please email me on stewart@mcpherson.net if you are interested.
Thanks
Stew

What is the neighborhood price of the share of the charter if 3 more persons can be found? Sounds like a wonderful trip seeing alot of ES escape route.

We could be in but need an indicative cost prior to make a decision.
Please let us know would be great.

Greetings from Palmer Station on the Antarctic Peninsula!
I don't have any information about what you want to do. I am looking forward to getting _back_ to Punta Arenas, however.
Good luck. Take good seasickness meds. I was on a 300 foot boat, and was ill as all hell for four days.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
