VINTAGE YACHTING CLUB ANNOUNCES PARTNERSHIP WITH MOONEY BAY ESTATE Distinctive yacht charter - resort excursion offerings in collaboration with private estate on stunning North Sound, Virgin Gorda

Vintage Yachting Club has announced a strategic partnership with Mooney Bay Estate, a privately-owned, six-bedroom Caribbean retreat located on the North Sound, Virgin Gorda, British Virgin Islands. Vintage Yachting Club will offer its members exclusive access to the property in combination with classic and luxury charter yachts, including fully customized excursions with available spa services, on-site chef, water sports staff, and more.

Mooney Bay Estate is a unique resort property that offers the seclusion of a privately-owned villa accessible only via motor launch, yet is in close proximity to the world-class attractions, reathtaking beaches and protected waters of the North Sound, Virgin Gorda. Recently renovated, the estate includes six bedrooms each with its own stone terrace, sweeping ocean views, a tennis court, pristine white sand beach, dock and boat slips, chef, spa services and other amenities upon request. Vintage Yachting Club will pair Mooney Bay Estate with equally distinctive yachts in offering members yacht / resort excursions including four and seven day yacht charters combined with four to seven day villa rentals.

"Mooney Bay Estate is an extraordinary property, and a perfect fit with the distinctive yachting lifestyle experience that we focus on delivering to members. We are thrilled to be able to offer members the opportunity to experience this stunning retreat in one of the best yachting locations in the Caribbean,” said Eric Dahler, founder and President of VYC. “We work closely with Mooney Bay in offering members an experience for that is unique in the luxury travel and yachting marketplace.”

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
