SMOOTH SAILING \u2013 IT’S A SEADREAM \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/p>\n

IF you think this photo is of a calm Australian lake or harbour cruise, think again \u2013 it is in fact aboard mega motor-cruiser SeaDream II in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean as she crossed this month from Barbados to Portugal and Spain on a near dead-flat sea. <\/p>\n

And the sun-loving couple snapped between the bottle and the glass are Aussies \u2013 Valerie and Tony Madigan from Dural in Sydney’s Hills District. <\/p>\n

Ninety-one guests were aboard SeaDream II that was transferring over 12-nights from her annual Caribbean season to the Mediterranean where she’ll operate until November this year, when she returns again to the Caribbean. <\/p>\n

The Madigan’s are not new to sailing SeaDream II or “sister” SeaDream I: they’ve been doing so since the early 1990s when the “mega-twins” were known as Sea Goddess I and II\u2026 and they’ve already booked themselves on SeaDream I in November for her 11-night crossing of the Atlantic from Tenerife in the Canary Islands to St Maarten, St Barthelemy and Antigua. <\/p>\n

If you are interested in this blue-water experience aboard the world’s highest-rated boutique ship, that includes 95 crew to serve 55 couples, gourmet 5-star dining, drinks from the bars, wines with meals, nightly cocktails, a 50-course golf simulator, fitness centre, watersports where local authorities allow, port taxes and onboard gratuities, see travel agents or www.seadream.com<\/a> <\/p>\n

Prices start from US$3627pp twin-share, a saving of US$1800 on originally brochured fares; air travel is additional. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
