HADLEY ALBANESE
Luxury Yacht Charter Broker - Rhode Island
Having graduated from the University of Rhode Island with a degree in Marine Affairs, Hadley spent the next 5 years working her way up the ranks on board yachts around the Bahamas, East and West Coast, Alaska and South America. She flourished as a deckhand, excelled as a Bosun and ultimately came ashore with a Captain’s license ready for her next opportunity.
Those years crewing on yachts have given Hadley first hand experience of what makes a great charter, and she enthusiastically brings her knowledge to the retail charter side of the industry. Additionally, her travels around the world have given her a curiosity to continue to explore and even maybe add to her language skills which currently include Swahili.
Now permanently back on dry land, Hadley has happily returned to her hometown of Narragansett in RI, where she lives with her boyfriend and cats nearby to her extended family and friends. As a luxury yacht charter broker, Hadley works closely with CharterWorld’s experienced Retail Brokerage team creating unforgettable yacht charter vacations for her clients.
Client Feedback
"Hadley, we were totally blown away! The Chef was unbelievable. The meals were better than any food on land. We were so thankful for the time that he took with us for the mini cooking lesson and were so impressed by all the meals that came out of such a small galley! I cannot say enough about Captain Antonio. He was amazing and had a very chill and relaxed demeanor. His ideas for the itinerary, and the way he altered it after learning more of our preferences and the ease he created for the guests to go back and forth to land was unmatched. The deckhand, though young, was wonderful at tender driving, very attentive, and so nice to all the guests. We loved the stew and thought she did an incredible job with keeping the yacht incredibly clean, her service was wonderful, and overall, she too was amazing. We loved everything about our time on board and have done a lot of traveling and this experience on board BORA BORA with this crew is the new top of our list!

"Hadley, with CharterWorld, with you - great connection, service, disposition, and support. I will definitely use CharterWorld again. I had been contacting a couple of other brokers and no one found as good a cat with this level of crew and food service. Being late in the season and kind of last minute, kudos to you. The crew were great; Friendly, open, respectful, and joyful. Good disposition to sail, to give us best options, and listen to our needs. The food was good, homestyle, and healthy. The crew were willing to adapt to us and to our child and we felt comfortable with them. We had dinner together which was nice, as they were friendly and receptive to our child too. The boat, nice cat, kept in order, mostly clean and well maintained. Everything worked well and it was good to have Internet. The extra front sail is great on the boat. It is comfortable, and for us as family of 3 good. The indoor living / dining room is a plus. It was very hot and is good to spend some time inside with AC. The main cabin was also comfortable."
