"Travelers Choice Award" Spacious 2 bedrm 45 ft yacht close to the Freedom Trail

What better way to spend time in Boston during this time than on your own private yacht. Come social distance on your own private yacht! Your yacht will be cleaned and disinfected in between stays. All linens are changed and disinfected between stays.
The Green Turtle II is a 45 foot motor yacht. Set in the historic Boston/Charlestown Navy Yard in Boston Harbor, the Green Turtle II offers an expansive view of Boston. The Green Turtle II is permanently docked at a protected marina during your stay.
The USS Constitution, Bunker Hill Monument and the Freedom Trail are just a short walk away. Take the free bus shuttle to North Station(.07 miles away) to the subway to any of the sites.
Enjoy the privacy of your own yacht. The Green Turtle was designed for comfort above all and the only reminder you are floating in Boston Harbor is the sound of the gulls, motion of the sea and reflection of the ocean dancing on the ceiling.
Enjoy the outdoors on the comfortable aft deck watching the harbor traffic.
The Green Turtle II can accommodate 2-6 people. She has 2 queen staterooms and the salon has a sleeper sofa for 2 along with comfortable seating. There is a dinette and galley along with a fantastic aft deck with comfortable outdoor seating area with spectacular views. She is heated and air conditioned.
We will meet you on the pier and bring you to the boat and orient you to the boat and how to get around. We will also make recommendations.

Come Float With US!

Unique Stay in Boston
We took our son and his girlfriend to Boston for part of their college spring break. We wanted to stay somewhere unique and had never done a boat before. I was a bit hesitant but it ended up to be so much fun and the kids loved it. The pastries provided and little items in the fridge were a special touch and much appreciated! Great location!

Jon & Karen go the extra mile to be sure all of their guests are well taken care of, from the inside scoop on restaurants to water bottles, juice, coffee and pastries on the boat! The location and the water are tranquil to come back to after a day of touring the city.

Great location easy to get around
The yacht was amazing, very clean and well kept. It was easy to get to, close to the city but far enough to be able to relax on the water without city noise. Hosts were amazing, great communication before and during our stay. Amazing hospitality, provided recommendations for our stay, and over all great hosts. Looking forward to going back next time we are in Boston.

Amazing Experience with Exceptional Hosts
What an experience for a summer visit to Boston. We stayed on Green Turtle II and our friends stayed on Green Turtle 1 for a weekend getaway to Boston. The location was perfect to see a concert at TD Garden, eat in North End and explore Charlestown. Our hosts Karen and Jon were fantastic in sharing all the best local spots and ensuring our stay was perfect including homemade baked goods. Ditch the hotel and plan your stay at Green Turtle.

So much more fun than a hotel! Proximity to Downtown Boston and the North End in particular. No need for a car and battling traffic. A great experience that our friends are already talking about doing themselves. See you next summer!

Boston Family Trip
Great location for a family trip in Boston. Jon was a pleasure to work with and gave us his local knowledge. Transportation was convenient and the North End is walkable. The kids loved sleeping on the boat. The boat is spacious enough to hang out on a rainy day. Would gladly stay there again. Logistics - laundry at the top of the pier. Boston Water Taxi can pick up or drop off on the face dock of pier 8 if you call them ahead of time.
