Buffett’s Yacht Now Available for Charter

February 9th, 2013


How would you like to charter Jimmy Buffett’s personal yacht, the Continental Drifter III? Well now you can, albeit it at a deserved steep price. The 124 foot luxury boat goes for $65,000 per week, plus expenses.

The luxurious yacht, can accommodate up to 10 guests in 5 staterooms, all with their own ensuite bathrooms. With a professional crew of 6, including a first class chef and a full compliment of “toys” – 30’ RIB fishing/diving/waterskiing shore excursion boat, paddleboards, surfboards, fishing gear and lots of memorabilia.

The yacht is small enough to get into small secluded coves and anchorages, where larger vessels can’t go and yet is very sea kindly, in large part due to her “Zero Speed” stabilization system, which also makes “rolly” anchorages a pleasure, so one can watch the sunset and not spill the Margaritas!

She is equipped with the latest equipment, including over 400 movies and thousands of songs on hard drive, satellite TV and high speed internet for those that can’t “un-tether”. She even has a 50” drop down TV on the flybridge with a large “daybed” so you can snuggle up and watch your favorite movies under the stars, while feeling the warm Caribbean breeze!

You can also charter Jimmy’s Cessna Caravan floatplane! One of the cool things that Buffett suggests you can do with the yacht and plane is to motor west through the Panama Canal, play in the Pacific Ocean and then fly over to the Atlantic side… swimming in both oceans in the same day.

Buffett Plays a Special Gulf Coast Set in Pensacola

February 5th, 2013


Jimmy Buffett came home to the Gulf Coast on Tuesday night, playing a specially tailored set list for a sold out crowd at the Bay Center in Pensacola, Florida.

In the pre-show interview, Buffett said he felt like he was at a family reunion because of all the family members from the area that were in attendance.

Buffett veered away from the typical Lounging at the Lagoon set early, playing “Life Is Just a Tire Swing,” “Frank and Lola,” and “The Pascagoula Run.” Later in the show he brought out “Nobody From Nowhere,” “Floridays,” and “Bama Breeze.” The show ended with perhaps the most appropriate finale, “When The Coast Is Clear,” which was last played live on September 2nd, 2010 in Bristow, Virginia.

View the full set list here.

The Pensacola News Journal has a review of the show: “Fans go all out for love of party, music”

Buffett and the band hit the road to Jacksonville for a show on Thursday night before heading to Key West next week to start recording the new album.
