Dive in and snorkel through the abundant coral reefs and observe the exotic marine life while anchored off of one of the many white sandy beaches. Row the kayaks ashore to explore your own private paradise. Or maybe wind surfing is more your speed. All is possible on Genesis.
Liz's personal view of Genesis
I first saw Genesis at the May 08 boat show with its new owner/operators. I was very impressed with both the yacht and her crew who bought this yacht and refitted her out for chartering. Originally from Czechoslovakia, Petr and his wife American wife, Tracy, are a very professional couple. Based in the Grenadines, Genesis is immaculate, beautifully furnished and ideal for honeymoon couples. The complete one side of the yacht is dedicated to their guests assuring privacy at all times.

Sail the azure waters of the British Virgin Islands aboard Amaryllis, a light and airy 45' catamaran decorated in Caribbean colours and adorned with local artwork. Amaryllis is an affordable charter yacht ideal for couples and families alike. Your captain, Bruce, is a gracious host, ready to share his extensive knowledge of sailing and the islands. He knows the best anchorages, the best places to snorkel and makes the best rum punch.
Liz's personal view of Amaryllis
I was very impressed with both the yacht and her owner-operated crew. Amaryllis is a lovely little yacht which I have no hesitation recommending, especially as a 4 pax. There have been lots of recent improvements including new furnishings and additional water toys. Amaryllis is also available for 4 and 5 night charters and is offering a family special of one child under 17 years goes free. Bruce and Laura are doing a great job and offer excellent value charters - the perfect yacht for families.

After a day of sailing shimmering waters, snorkeling with tropical fish or strolling magnificent beaches, the sun is setting, a vibrant sunset reflecting upon crystal clear water. A delicious meal is prepared in the galley while cocktails are enjoyed on the deck, enhancing the magnificent view. Perhaps a night of fun on the island awaits you or maybe a relaxing night enjoying the serenity of the peaceful Caribbean. These are among the many amazing experiences to be had aboard Caribbean Dream.

Your hosts, Kelly & Angie, originally from South Africa, welcome you aboard Caribbean Dream which has recently benefited from a refit including new upholstery and linens.

VIEW CAPTAIN-ONLY & HALF-BOARD CHARTERS
Alan's passion of the Caribbean and entertaining friends has brought him to Catalyst, where he can't wait to fire up the blender and show you some of the most beautiful spots on the planet. Alan is at his best on Captain only or half-board charters and will ensure you have a memorable trip - relaxing and enjoying lazy days at an easy going island pace.
Liz's personal view of Catalyst
Catalyst is one of the best value for money charter yachts in the BVI. Although an older yacht, she is well maintained and is regularly upgraded. Catalyst is extremely clean with comfortable staterooms and en suite heads; the salon and forward queen cabins are air conditioned but the aft double guest cabin is not. Your host, Alan, is very patient and relaxed, and is always willing to accommodate guests' requests. He has done a fantastic job with this charter yacht and offers a wide variety of packages from full board to half board to captain only- something to suit everyone. In addition, diving is available from the yacht. Alan is the true professional and, by keeping his rates competitive, is always booked well in advance. Book early to avoid disappointment.

Frangines is an exquisite 55' catamaran designed for comfort, stability and sailing enjoyment. She can accommodate corporate groups, intimate weddings, fabulous celebrations, private cruises or spectacular honeymoons. Whether you choose to charter her for a relaxing week with close friends or a romantic week for two, you will be charmed by her beauty, comfort and ambience.

Each stateroom is equipped with its own air-conditioning, en-suite head including shower and vanity for your comfort and privacy.
Liz's personal view of Frangines
A recent refit with tasteful decor along with an interesting and highly professional crew ensures Frangines to be a winner. An abundance of water toys onboard will keep all guests entertained. For tall guests, each cabin benefits from extra long queen beds. Frangines is available for charter in the BVI as well as the USVI and Spanish Virgin Islands. This well-maintained yacht will accept 4 nights only so why not combine your charter with a stay on land in a private villa - the ultimate vacation in the British Virgin Islands.

Just lay back and imagine yourself living on your own private floating resort. The captain has sailed you across the impossibly turquoise seas to a white sand fringed isolated bay. Your chef has delighted you again with mouthwatering canapés. You drop gently into the warm transparent water and snorkel right off the yacht with the tropical reef fish and swaying corals. You enjoy cocktails at sunset while you look back on a perfect day and look forward to an exciting tomorrow.
Liz's personal view of Free Ingwe
Free Ingwe is an older yacht but absolutely immaculate due to Matt and Melissa's diligence. A perfect yacht for family charters with plenty of water toys onboard.

The yacht name translates as 'the dance of two', revealing how you will be spirited away on the two hulls of this luxury catamaran. Sailing high above the ocean swells or swimming below them, you will indulge in a unique holiday on Pas de Deux. Enjoy the privacy of over 1500 square feet of indoor space, 1000 square feet of deck space and miles of ocean and exclusive island anchorages you may choose daily. Your crewed sailing charter is virtually effortless except for falling in and out of bed and then off the swim platforms into gorgeous turquoise waters.
Liz's personal view of Pas de Deux
A beautiful yacht, very tastefully decorated with lots of space for all guests. Harvey and Tracey, a fun-loving, professional and experienced couple, are your crew. A recent refit keeps Pas de Deux in tip top condition.

The contemporary style, space and attention to detail of this new Lagoon resets the standard for crewed charters. A beautifully appointed interior, where each guest cabin has an island queen bed and separate shower stall are comforts usually found only on much larger boats. The comfortable outside living area is protected by a hard bimini top and has a guest bar with fridge and ice maker so you can help yourself to refreshments. There's also a spacious salon and forward cockpit area for those quieter moments. Tonina has been designed and equipped specifically to make your charter enjoyable.
Liz's personal view of Tonina
Tonina is one of the most gorgeous contemporary catamarans chartering in BVI waters. She provides an abundance of space, a huge cockpit with good shade, a fully stocked bar for guests' use as well as a forward smaller cockpit with comfortable bench seat for those quieter moments. Using a unique colour scheme of restful warm oranges and complimentary creams, Tonina has 3 equal queen staterooms all exquisitely furnished, en suite bathrooms, fully air conditioned with plenty of headroom for taller guests. The boat feels airy and spacious throughout and, with Karen & Pete as your hosts, you can be assured of a truly magical vacation sailing the islands. For guests arriving late in the day, Tonina offers a sleepaboard option - please enquire for details.
