SY Aphrodite
Cruise company: Burma boating
Cruise type: Luxury, Private
Destinations: Myanmar - Myanmar
SY Aphrodite was built for luxury and comfort. She combines the qualities of a high-performance boat with elegant and comfortable cruising: Aphrodite is a true blue-water sailing yacht.
The yacht was designed by Andre Hoek and built by the renowned Vitters Shipyard in Holland, famous for its very high standards. The design brief for Aphrodite was a go-anywhere, strong and fast exploration yacht for safe and comfortable passages. She spent the first years of her life in the Mediterranean and crossed the Atlantic to the Caribbean every winter. In 2014 she sailed to Asia and underwent an extensive refit.
The spacious owner's cabin with en-suite is located aft with a separate staircase from the cockpit. As a true owner's yacht, this suite offers an unusually large bathroom with two sinks and even a bathtub.
Forward of the large saloon and dining area are two beautifully finished guest cabins - one with a double bed and the other with 2 twin beds.
Further towards the bow is a separate area with two cabins dedicated for the crew.
The design of the interior is typical of Andrew Hoek's classic style with high gloss cherry wood, white ceiling panels and ash floor boards.

Children's policy
Minors under 18 must be accompanied by a parent, legal guardian or other adult over the age of 21. This passenger is fully responsible for the driving and entertainment of the minor. Neither Burma Boating nor any member of the crew will be held responsible for their driving or entertainment.
For cabin charter, minors under 18 can only be accommodated on special request. This clause does not guarantee passengers that there will be minors on board.
For all charters, single travelers under the age of 18 will not be accommodated.
We reserve the right to limit the number of minors under 18 years on board.
Policies of pregnant women
Since ships do not have a means to allow women to give birth on board, pregnant women older than six months are not allowed to board ships. In any case, it is advisable for pregnant women traveling on board ships to consult a doctor before boarding, to ensure that their state of health is compatible with the planned cruise. Every pregnant woman traveling on board ships must have a FIT TO TRAVEL letter from a doctor. Access to a doctor will be unlikely during most of the trip.
