Sag Harbor is on Long Island, near the world-famous Hamptons playground for wealthy Manhattanites. It’s also a fine jumping-off point for itineraries that include southern New England’s Block Island and Newport, which is a four-hour cruise away.

King Baby is a 2009 launch that I first wrote about in this Yacht Insider story for Boats.com after I toured her in February at the Miami International Boat Show. She has a captain who came from far larger charter motoryachts and incorporated lessons learned into the new yacht’s smaller package. The entertainment system aboard King Baby is particularly impressive for a yacht her size, for instance, and guest bathrooms were intentionally made bigger to allow for greater guest comfort.

The decor is comfortably elegant, and is accented by museum-quality, black-and-white photographs of rock-n-roll legends. It’s the first yacht where I’ve ever seen such artwork, and I really liked the fun vibe that it lent to the ambience.

King Baby is part of the charter fleet at Hargrave Yachts.
