“For the first time yachts in the Andaman Islands can arrange for provisioning before and during their journey visiting our stunning islands,” reports R. Rathnam, director of Asia Pacific Superyachts Andaman Islands.
“It was not possible to provide provisioning before and we’re excited to announce we have a new provisioning facility and can arrange for delivery right to their yacht, right in Port Blair – selecting from a huge inventory of fresh and sought after provisions”, said Rathnam.
Rathnam happily reports: “We have organised provisioning in the Andamans to begin this season. Most of the provisions ordered will be brought from mainland India by flight and will be delivered on board. With full provisioning available, journeying through the stunning islands is a terrific new development for Superyachts in the Andamans.”
