The winning bidder can choose one of two fantastic charter destinations, with bespoke itineraries created for each: an 8-day/7-night cruise in September 2012 in the magical cruising grounds of Croatia, where the astonishingly clear Adriatic Sea reflects the dramatic scenery, picturesque islands and fascinating ancient towns or 8-days/7-nights in the Caribbean sailing in February 2013. Both choices present an incredible opportunity to explore and dive in some of the most beautiful waters on the planet, and HEMISPHERE’s innovative design is perfect for accessing shallow, secluded coves and bays off the beaten path.
In addition to the online auction, an invite-only event will take place at Christie’s on April 11, 2012 in New York, where the world’s top international collectors, philanthropists, celebrities and designers will convene for the third year in a row for a glittering night of entertainment, fashion and an over-the-top live “fantasy auction.” The HEMISPHERE charter will close during the live auction and 100% of the funds raised will benefit Oceana, which is supported by Burgess in its mission to protect and restore the world’s oceans.
