Like a Million Dollars
Sail into the sunrise on “The Bayliner”
My eyes are shut, my mind flowing in a heaven of surf. The distant hawk of a seagull, wind rushing to ears, the soft laps of dancing waves, and schools of jumping dolphins…isn’t this a lovely dream? |

Devika touches a chilled champagne flute to my elbow and I jump awake. Yes, I’m sailing on “The Bayliner.”
A 31 ft long cruiser with roomy interiors customized with a convertible dinette, a full galley with stove and refrigerator, and a forward berth for two. Teak and steel and total privacy and convenience packaged within the 288 cruiser complete with a bedroom. |

Anchored at a private floating jetty bobbing peacefully at Cavalossim’s River Sal, this steel and chrome beauty is a pleasure to sail with close friends or someone special. The dolphins sometimes keep tempo to the laughter on deck to the music of the waves crashing against their water hissing snouts.
Managing “The Bayliner” for Euro Traditions Pvt. Ltd. and their Leisure and Adventure Sports division in Goa, Nicky and Devika customize special champagne and wine packages for those requesting a private soiree into the sunset, or overnight moonlit trips. For the adventurous, dolphin, island and fishing trips have great many stories of the catch that made to the net and into the barbeque pit; or family outings at Palolem or Butterfly beach complete with snorkeling gear. |

| Nicky, professionally trained as a diver, joins in with the harpoon if the angler tires of patience. Not to forget, “The Layla,” a snappy speedboat cuts through the waves for short trips to get your beer chilled, or, if you like it, rough jet skis for water boarding. With yachts dotting the coastline of Goa’s new heeled seafarers making a lifestyle statement, “The Bayliner” makes for a worthy addition to Goa’s mantra of good living. And about time! What better excuse to switch off your cell phone and let the sea caress your stress away.

| So if you want to see Goa in a new light, try the Bayliner. It will be sheer pleasure, as I’ve discovered time and again in the happy company of Nicky (9890556911), Devika (9960260007) and their merry brood of suntanned children jumping off the front bow and straight into the sea! |
