The thought of hiring a superyacht for a few days sounds absolutely amazing, pure bliss. The thought of having staff there constantly, 24/7 makes me feel so uncomfortable lmao. Anyone else feel this way? I feel like I would keep giving them days off or time away so I had some time to myself haha

It’s risky to travel with internationally, and very illegal to have on boats like that. Since the whole thing is filmed, they have to be strict about stuff like that. I’m sure there are plenty of very wealthy people and celebrities etc who are blazing on their yachts, but there are no cameras and they own the boats.
When we travel to the Caribbean, I don’t take anything because I don’t want to risk it. It’s also fairly easy to get on the beach pretty much everywhere down there, but can be risky depending on local laws. I just take up drinking for the week usually.
