When five stars just don't cut it anymore, it may be time to take to the high seas in a $40 million chartered megayacht. The newest member of the rental pool is the Rosehearty, a 184-foot sailing yacht designed by the famed Italian boat-builder Perini Navi (the company responsible for the outlandishly opulent, 290-foot Maltese Falcon, a vessel doubtless familiar to visitors of Antigua's Falmouth Harbour during Sailing Week). Owned by News Corporation chairman Rupert Murdoch, the Rosehearty (named after Murdoch's home in Centre Island, New York — also rentable) offers space for 10 charter guests (not including the crew of nine) in five suites created by French designer and decorator Christian Liaigre. It has an on-board gym, six sets of dive gear, and a pair of sailing dinghies (with instructor, of course). The tab for sailing the Caribbean like a media mogual? Try €220,000 a week (that's about $314,000 at current rates). Fortunately, for the rest of us, daydreams are still free.
