quality and performance

Would you like to see a good example of French workmanship, combining both comfort and exciting sailing in a performance yacht? Y-Not!

Y-NOT was built in 1994 by the yard "Constructions Industrielles et Maritimes" at Rochefort in France.   She is a Bruce Farr design and is a good example of French workmanship, combining both comfort and exciting sailing in a performance yacht.

The Master Cabin Forward

Below, she has a spacious saloon/dining area, with TV, video and HI-FI facilities.   Her three cabins are all ensuite and comprise of one queen size bed in the owner's stateroom forward, and twin beds in the two guest cabins.    These beds convert to queen size beds.

 

Outside, her well-laid out deck area and separate guest cockpit are ideal for enjoying the sun and sea. The transom folds down to provide a convenient bathing platform with a deck shower, so that both swimming and boarding the tender are quite easy.

Captain Ernie's passion and professionalism in his work helps everyone to feel at ease and makes you want to learn more about sailing and navigating the waters!

Chef Israel’s childhood experiences hunting for wild mushrooms, berries, and herbs in the Ozarks led him to cooking at an early age. Growing up with two professional chefs in his family, Israel learned to garden with his mother and is a natural at preparing fresh, unique meals.

During three seasons of work as a kitchen manager in a Denali National Park resort, Israel found his calling as a professional chef, and has been honing his culinary skills ever since. His repertoire draws from a wide variety of cultural influences, and blends traditional dishes and flavors with original touches that are memorably delicious.

His love for the outdoors led him to sea kayaking, where he began to talk to sailing crews and became interested in life on the water. Combining both his passion for food and his adventurous side, he was naturally drawn to the galley of a scuba dive charter boat in the Bahamas, and he has since become an expert at the art of sailing as well.

On Yacht Y Not, Israel not only works magic in the galley, but also freedives and spearfishes whenever he can, and loves to share his enthusiasm for the ocean with guests.

Hostess, Amy, a Wyoming native, comes to Y-Not with five years of Army service as well as experience coaching gymnastics, teaching junior high Spanish, and bartending. As a former gymnast herself and avid runner and triathlete, she brings a contagious energy and sense of humor to the yacht. She speaks both English and Spanish, providing friendly service in all aspects of your charter experience.
