Footloose Adds 47' Catamaran To BVI Charter Fleet
Customized Charter Yacht Offers Great Value for Sailors

Clearwater, FL (Monday May 15, 2006) - Footloose Sailing Charters grows its fleet this summer with the addition of the popular Moorings 4700 catamaran. Designed by Alex Simonis and manufactured by Robertson & Caine in South Africa, the M4700 is available for sailing vacations from the company's base in Tortola, British Virgin Islands.

"The M4700 design optimizes space and comfort, built with The Moorings high standards of performance and quality, yet offered at Footloose's great rates, from only $91 per person per day for a group of eight," noted Josephine Williams, Brand Manager. "The M4700 is an adaptation of the M4500, which earned "Best Charter Boat" in 1998 from Cruising World magazine, also available in the Footloose fleet."

The M4700 offers sailors the ideal cruising platform, with four large double cabins each with en suite head and shower, a fully outfitted galley and salon area with great views over the water, and a large cockpit with fully equipped helm station to starboard, including chart plotter / GPS. A generator and air conditioning, large sail area and twin engines add to the comfort of this spacious catamaran, which offers great performance under sail and power.

Sailors can charter this catamaran or any other yacht from the Footloose fleet in Tortola and St Lucia this summer and save up to 25% between July 1 and November 11. This is a great time of year to cruise the tropical waters of the Caribbean and enjoy steady breezes of 15-20 knots and average temperatures of 82 F. Call 1-888-952-6013 for booking information and a sailing vacation with the right equipment at the lowest cost!

This exclusive charter yacht is also available for sale through the Footloose Yacht Ownership Program, with charter revenues that help pay for the cost of the yacht, in addition to plenty of cruising time.

"Yachts are available immediately for purchase" added Josephine. "We can offer the best options for purchase through our ownership plan, which provides 100% management, no operating expenses, up to nine weeks of sailing per year, monthly revenue and more."

Footloose Sailing Charters, a leader in the budget sailing vacations sector and owned by First Choice Marine, provides sailing vacations in Tortola, British Virgin Islands; St Lucia, Windward Islands; Auckland and Bay of Islands, New Zealand and Tonga in the South Pacific.
