The Moorings Honored for Marketing Excellence by Marine Marketing Association

"Best National Magazine Advertising - Spread" and "Best Product Literature"

CLEARWATER, Fla., Nov. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- The Moorings proudly accepted two of
six awards from the Marine Marketing Association's 2009 Neptune Awards
competition at the Ft. Lauderdale International Boat Show. Specifically, The
Moorings took first for "Best National Magazine Advertising - Spread" and
"Best Product Literature."

Describing the national advertisement, judges noted how "the overall visual
imagery immediately brought readers into The Moorings world of charter
vacations, creating a compelling desire to be there ... right now!" Offering
the industry's largest catamaran fleet, this advertisement represents the
luxurious yachts available to charterers in over 20 destinations worldwide,
while showcasing The Moorings award-winning 4000, 4300 and 4600 catamarans.

Exclusively designed for The Moorings, the popular 4600 is their largest
sail-it-yourself catamaran and an excellent choice for friends and families
seeking an unparalleled cruising experience. This cruiser features a
roller-furling genoa, raised helm station, electric windlass, air conditioning
and generator. The well-appointed interior boasts four double staterooms, en
suite electric heads, separate shower stalls, and well-equipped galley amongst
other amenities. As part of The Moorings environmental efforts, solar panels
are installed on new 4600s to increase battery life and reduce time spent
running the engine or generator for charging.

The Moorings award-winning Crewed Yacht brochure was described as a
"first-class travel brochure, which clearly sells the charter vacation
lifestyle" through outstanding photography, design and chartering details.
With 40 years of experience providing five-star service, a Crewed Yacht
charter electrifies the senses with personalized service from a professional
captain and chef, watersports, relaxation and excursions ashore. The popular
full yacht charter lets cruisers experience the allure of a privately
chartered yacht. Alternatively, stateroom packages provide the luxury of a
crewed yacht for the price of a single cabin and a fun experience with
like-minded travelers. Crewed Yachts are available in select destinations
across the Caribbean, Mediterranean, North America, Indian Ocean, South
Pacific and Far East.
