Setting Sail with Bob Marine Yacht Charter [Sponsored]


11 Cove Drive, #01-15 One Degree 15 Marina, Singapore 098491
Tel: 9104 2626 / 9712 7218




Yachting is one of the activities I love, being out on the seas, kissed by the winds and listening to the waves sing it's lullabies; the whole experience is just so seductive. Yachting used to be an expensive activity, and may still be thought so these days.



With Bob Marine Yacht Charter however, one can look forward to an unforgettable yachting experience from $800 onwards. Be it for friends, celebrations or corporate team bonding, yachting can now be made affordable and a favourite pastime for the lovers of the seas.



The "Bob" in Bob Marine stands for "band of  brothers",  because the co-founder Kah Meng believes that in order to succeed, it takes teamwork and people striving together, like a band of brothers in arms. Recently, I was honoured to be introduced to him, and an experience on board The Sardinia. This ship can hold up to 38 pax comfortably, on upper and lower decks.



The exterior is pristine white and very neat, allowing  guests to sit and enjoy the breezes in total comfort. The interior is tastefully furnished in varnished wood and black cushions.





What to do on board a yacht?

  • Take great photos
  • Relax and watch the sunset
  • Eat, drink and party
  • Hold celebrations for birthdays or weddings
  • Island hopping
  • Corporate team bonding
  • Hold talks for clients
  • Sail somewhere to kayak and play in the waters
Besides The Sardinia, other yachts under Bob Marine Yacht Charter currently are Golden Ocean and Sea Wind One. Do check them out for your out-at-seas getaways. Thank you Bob Marine Yacht Charter and Kah Meng for the enjoyable experience!

Review on Yacht Charter with Ximula Sail


11 Cove Drive, ONE°15 Marina Club, Sentosa Cove, Singapore 098497
Tel: 8716 1519


Friends of mine know that I have always loved water bodies and vessels, strangely addiction for someone who has Hydrophobia and panics whenever her head goes underwater. Chuckles. That aside, being onboard yachts, cruises, ferries, and ships always delight me - with the elements of the sand, sun and sea as enticing prospects.




I was happy to be part of the group chartering Ximula Sail for a day of fun out at sea, letting the breeze kiss my skin all over.  The yacht can hold up to 18 persons and is docked at One° 15 Marina Club, Sentosa - home to many beautiful yachts. Service by director Min Qi was fantastic as well - friendly, personable, and always keeping a lookout for the safety of her passengers.




Introduction of the yacht was made to us - galley, bedrooms and whatever's exterior. We started sailing around 4.30pm, but before that were prepped with Calming Ginger Pills if we needed, to prevent seasick-ness.  I had no need for those, thankfully. Food may be catered for consumption onboard the yacht, and packing list (caps, ponchos, towels, swimsuit, etc) was disseminated to us before we set sail.





The yacht sailed to Lazarus Island where we could kayak and swim. The waters were clear and surroundings were tranquil, the perfect getaway from city life's immense stress. We stayed there for about 2 hours before the yacht turned back toward Sentosa. I got to steer the wheel, with detailed advice and guidance from their friendly captains.

All in all, the sailing experience was amazing and I would love to do this a lot more often. Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy this fun and beautiful trip out at sea! Charters are reasonably-priced, starting from SGD$1,200 so do contact Ximula Sail today for your corporate / personal events!
