Anthony Bourdain of CNN’s “Parts Unknown”, traveled to Puerto Rico to explore the island for the show a few months before Hurricane Maria. We were thrilled that he and his team rented one of our owner’s Fountaine Pajot Saba 50‘s to film part of the show (click on the picture to see the video).
In this sneak peak video, Anthony and his team prepare a sumptuous meal with locally sourced ingredients in the galley of the Saba 50. The galley with a walk-around island and big drawer fridges proved to be more than good enough for one of the world’s most famous chefs. What a delight!
Anthony Bourdain, much like every sailing cruiser I know, loved the ambience of eating a local dish prepared onboard while gliding through the crystal clear waters of the Caribbean. But then, we all know that life is best on a sailboat and that food just tastes better onboard!

Puerto Rico Before & After the Hurricane
Puerto Rico is a vibrant Caribbean island, home to historic old San Juan with squares of Spanish colonial architecture as well as numerous pristine beaches and gin clear waters. It also boasts one of the few bioluminescent lagoons in the world, see one adventurer’s experience in the video at right. It is paradise! Check out the 12 most beautiful destinations in Puerto Rico.
Unfortunately, the island that already was on the brink economically, has greatly suffered from the hurricane. Many people are still without electricity and water. It is a sad and difficult situation for many. Read this article to find out how you can help: What every American needs to know about Puerto Rico’s hurricane disaster.
