"Travelers Choice Award" Spacious 2BD/2Bath Heat/AC 45 ft yacht Freedom Trail

What better way to spend time in Boston during this time than on your own private yacht. Come social distance on your own private yacht! Your yacht will be cleaned and disinfected in between stays. All linens are changed and disinfected between stays.
The Green Turtle II is a 45 foot motor yacht. Set in the historic Boston/Charlestown Navy Yard in Boston Harbor, the Green Turtle II offers an expansive view of Boston. The Green Turtle II is permanently docked at a protected marina during your stay.
The USS Constitution, Bunker Hill Monument and the Freedom Trail are just a short walk away. Take the free bus shuttle to North Station(.07 miles away) to the subway to any of the sites.
Enjoy the privacy of your own yacht. The Green Turtle was designed for comfort above all and the only reminder you are floating in Boston Harbor is the sound of the gulls, motion of the sea and reflection of the ocean dancing on the ceiling.
Enjoy the outdoors on the comfortable aft deck watching the harbor traffic.
The Green Turtle II can accommodate 2-6 people. She has 2 queen staterooms and the salon has a sleeper sofa for 2 along with comfortable seating. There is a dinette and galley along with a fantastic aft deck with comfortable outdoor seating area with spectacular views. She is heated and air conditioned.
We will meet you on the pier and bring you to the boat and orient you to the boat and how to get around. We will also make recommendations.

Wonderful boat in Boston

This was the best place we have ever stayed. This boat is perfect and the location is amazing. Jon and Karen were so responsive and helpful. The bathrooms are small and could be difficult to manage but that’s to be expected on a boat. The banana bread (baked by Karen) and other pastries were a great grab and go either late night or in the mornings. This was a great experience in the harbor - seeing the other boats and watching the ships come thru. We loved it!

Great stay!

Its an older yacht that has been renting for many years but..its in great condition and we enjoyed our stay immensely. The views, the gentle waves rocking you to sleep, and all of the extras Jon and Karen put into their place was amazing! They made sure we knew everything needed about the yacht, the area, and free transportation. :) Would definitely stay again.

We had a great stay on the boat. Jon showed us everything we needed to know to make the most of our stay both on the boat and in Boston. Beautiful, safe, well-kept marina property. Ferry to Long Wharf just a few piers down. We had a blast. Great way to experience Boston!!

Jon & Karen go the extra mile to be sure all of their guests are well taken care of, from the inside scoop on restaurants to water bottles, juice, coffee and pastries on the boat! The location and the water are tranquil to come back to after a day of touring the city.

What a great way to enjoy a weekend in Boston. Check in was seamless, accommodations were just as described and Jon, Karen and Sherrie were so nice. The added touches, baked goods, coffee, tea, cream, sugar, butter, cream cheese etc were very much appreciated. Communication was easy and location was perfect. We traveled with another couple and we all really enjoyed our stay. Thank you for a truly memorable weekend!

Unique Stay in Boston

We took our son and his girlfriend to Boston for part of their college spring break. We wanted to stay somewhere unique and had never done a boat before. I was a bit hesitant but it ended up to be so much fun and the kids loved it. The pastries provided and little items in the fridge were a special touch and much appreciated! Great location!

Amazing Experience with Exceptional Hosts

What an experience for a summer visit to Boston. We stayed on Green Turtle II and our friends stayed on Green Turtle 1 for a weekend getaway to Boston. The location was perfect to see a concert at TD Garden, eat in North End and explore Charlestown. Our hosts Karen and Jon were fantastic in sharing all the best local spots and ensuring our stay was perfect including homemade baked goods. Ditch the hotel and plan your stay at Green Turtle.

Wonderful stay on the yacht

My husband and I booked this yacht as a fun change from a hotel on our last night in Boston. Jon is a wonderful host and took the time to share tips around the area and his wife had made us delicious muffins on top of several other nice touches. Our boys (ages 9 and 11) thought it was the coolest experience ever. The only bummer is we wish we had more time 😊. We hope to be back and highly recommend!

100% Better than a Hotel

Two main berths with two bathrooms. Great location in a marina in Boston harbor. Easy to get anywhere in Boston, just park your car and use the ferries or Uber. Great restaurants and USS Constitution in walking distance. Jon and Karen are great hosts who check in with you make sure you have everything you need. The kitchen is packed with coffee and tea, fresh made muffins, juice, milk, butter, cream cheese and water.
