Our Maritime Legacy

Emerging from a profound love for the ocean and dedication to superiority, SoftPaperTrail has been delivering exceptional sea adventures along the untouched shores of France for more than ten years.

Our Story

In 2013, seafaring aficionados Captain Charles Windham and First Officer Taylor Johnson established SoftPaperTrail to bring the splendor of France's maritime scenes to like-minded explorers.

Initially a modest single yacht venture, it has expanded to become France's leading luxury yacht charter service, delighting countless guests and upholding our dedication to safety, opulence, and respect for the environment.

Now, our diverse selection of pristine luxury vessels are outfitted with state-of-the-art comforts and are manned by a team of experienced seafarers committed to delivering unparalleled service.
