Liz's personal view of Adeia
Adeia is an outstanding yacht with so many amenities and feels much larger than she actually is. There are 4 queen size spacious staterooms with individually controlled A/C, en suite showers and roomy bathrooms. She also has good headroom in the cabins for taller guests. The generous salon area is extremely comfortable. A fabulous feature on this beautiful yacht is a sofa seat just aft of the trampolines where guests can relax and enjoy the panoramic view of the Caribbean sea whilst sailing or sit up on the fly bridge and watch the world go by! Adeia offers diving within the charter rates which includes one dive per day; additional dives are $40. BCs can be rented - which the crew will organise - or bring your own. Leon, your captain, is originally from South Africa – I have known Leon for 9 years - and coupled with his new wife, Michelle from USA, make a warm and fun-loving crew. They are a delight and very eager to make your charter memorable and one you will want to repeat year after year. Outstanding!

A sailing vacation aboard Best Revenge 5 is the ultimate way to enjoy and experience the natural beauty of the Caribbean. She has more than enough deck space for four couples either to lounge comfortably together or find private spaces, and two large trampolines on the bow (with their own stereo speakers), which are perfect for soaking up the sun or reading a book in the shade of her sails.
Liz's personal view of Best Revenge 5
Jonny and Kelly, who were previously crew on Soterion, are thoroughly enjoying their new position on Best Revenge 5, one of the most luxurious, state-of-the-art catamarans of her size in the British Virgin Islands. They are a fabulous crew who will do their utmost to make your charter a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience. Absolutely magic! Highly recommended.

Indulge in the luxury of being pampered. Whether you relax on the sun-drenched trampolines, lounge in the shaded cockpit or have a fun game on the beach with cocktail in hand, your cruise aboard Breanker will be the place to spend the best week of your life. The guest cabins emphasise the importance of space, light and a good breeze. All four guest suites are designed with similar amenities - lights, fans, hanging lockers and a small settee. The salon's six overhead hatches collect the trade winds while you steal a few moments from the perpetual sunshine. From coffee in the morning to the last sip of cognac under the stars, everything is close at hand. There is lots of room on deck for toys, lots of room to relax, and all the time you are surrounded by the wondrous sights of the Caribbean.
Liz's personal view of Breanker
Breanker is an older catamaran and beautifully maintained by its owners/operators, Marianne and Kristian. Sistership to Quest, who they often do tandem charters with, the four queen staterooms with en suite bathrooms (bathtubs in forward cabins) are quite spacious with plenty of ventilation although A/C is available in all cabins, if required. There is plenty of room both in the cockpit and forward on the trampolines - great fun to sunbathe on whilst sailing! Breanker carries a number of water toys for guests to enjoy and offers onboard diving for certified divers. Marianne & Kristian originate from Denmark and have been chartering around the BVI for a number of years, first on their monohull and now on Breanker. Marianne & Kristian will be pleased to welcome you aboard Breanker and show you the wonders of the British Virgin Islands.

A sailing vacation aboard Flying Ginny is all about freedom, freedom to choose what you wish to do in the picture perfect world of the Caribbean. Imagine the exhilaration of sailing to windward in 20-knot tradewinds with twin bows slicing the wavetops into spray or perhaps a lazy, relaxing afternoon sail across tranquil waters to a secluded cove. You set the pace and the itinerary and choose the activities you like to do. Go swimming, snorkeling, diving or try your hand at kayaking, windsurfing or any other water sports. Sit back with a cool tropical drink, enjoy the sun, read a book, listen to music, and just unwind.
Liz's personal view of Flying Ginny VII
Flying Ginny is one of the most immaculate catamarans available for charter in the BVI. She is maintained to a high standard both cosmetically and mechanically. New water toys added this season are a juvenile windsurfer and inflatable kayaks with see-through windows so you can enjoy life under the ocean without getting wet! Tom and Gemma have been on board Flying Ginny for approximately 5 years and continue to provide truly fantastic charters. They are an energetic, fun-loving couple; Tom has a love of all watersports and delights in helping guests with windsurfing or wakeboarding amongst other sports. Gemma is a fantastic chef who will amaze you with her expertise in the galley. They are one of the best crews in the BVI, very personable and an excellent choice for all age groups.

Marmot’s design focuses on luxury for eight guests in four cabins with a crew of two.

Hatches and ports provide the light of day, moonlight by night and tropical breezes in abundance.

Al and Sarah are one of the most professional crews in the business having been in the industry for over 10 years. Sarah takes pleasure in preparing delicious meals and is always keen to try new dishes. Both Al and Sarah take great pride in their work and ensure their guests have a wonderful and fun vacation aboard Marmot. A fabulous charter is guaranteed!

Liz's personal view of Nutmeg
Nutmeg is a lovely St Francis 50 with very comfortable furnishings and a relaxing colour scheme. Well designed, the yacht gives the impression of being larger than she is, especially in the salon area. Nutmeg is owner operated by Sandy and Elinor, who have sailed extensively and have led very interesting lives - Sandy was a skipper for the National Sea Rescue Institute in the far east covering the Philippines, Japan, Hong Kong. Built in 2008, the yacht is in beautiful condition.

If it has something to do with the water, the great outdoors or travelling, Rosemary and Travis want to be there. Whether they’re aboard Pentesilea II enjoying a sunset, or out exploring some pristine reef with their guests, they know how to make your holiday an extraordinary one. Your Virgin Islands sailing vacation begins when they pick you up in Red Hook, St. Thomas around noon and head for Waterlemon Cay, St. John serving lunch along the way. Go for a snorkel with the turtles around the cay and/or a hike up to the Annaberg sugar plantation ruins. In the evening watch the sun set over St. John with a Pina Colada. You are on a sailboat in the Caribbean and dinner is on the way!
Liz's personal view of Pentesilea II
Purchased a couple of years ago by Travis and Rose, Pentesilea II has benefited from numerous upgrades and has been chartering very successfully in the Virgin Islands. Pentesilea II is a perfect choice for families of all ages and offers great value for money. Also included in their affordable rates is diving and a resort course for non-certified divers.

Quest is designed with comfort and luxury in mind. The open plan salon immediately gives the impression of space, style and comfort. Dine formally in the salon or experience the stars and fresh Caribbean air in the spacious cockpit. Enjoy the many water sports Quest provides or lie back and relax on the trampoline. Virgin white beaches, sapphire blue seas with magical coral reefs and tropical fish can all be experienced in your 'quest' for the perfect vacation. Relax, sit back and enjoy the scenic splendour, experience fine gourmet cuisine and first class service aboard your own luxury catamaran.
Liz's personal view of Quest
Although Quest is an older yacht, she is extremely well maintained and is looking in very good condition having had a major refit in 2008. She has a sleeker and a more classical outline compared to the newer charter yachts. Inside she is very well appointed having 4 queen cabins with air conditioning should it be required; the salon area is very spacious fitted out with light woods. Quest is a good all-round boat perfect for chartering in the British Virgin Islands. For guests wanting to explore the BVI under the water, diving is available from the yacht and the charter rate includes one dive/day for certified divers.

Soterion's interior includes four double cabins (two of which convert to twin beds), all with en-suite showers and non-polluting LectraSan heads. Soterion (formerly Double Feature) a 57’ Lagoon is now undergoing many upgrades according to her new owner, she also has a new crew – Nikki & Ben - who have a wealth of sailing experience. Among the upgrades will be a new galley, cockpit cushions, bow pulpit seats, hand rails by the helm stations, new sails and resurfacing of the stern steps. We look forward to seeing all the new improvements when she arrives back for the November boat show in BVI – she should look pretty spiffy! Soterion will also be available for pick ups throughout the Caribbean Islands during the 2010 season.
Liz's personal view of Soterion
Ben and Nikki join Soterion in 2009. Both are extremely enthusiastic with a love of the outdoors having previously chartered around Alaska and then sailed their little 32' sailboat from Seattle through the Panama Canal to the Pacific. Ben has also been a yacht delivery captain and with commercial tug boats. An enthusiastic, active crew together with a spacious, well-equipped yacht ensure your charter aboard Soterion will be an unforgettable experience. You're sure to have a fabulous time onboard.

The futuristic 76ft catamaran Akasha heralds a new era in luxury sailing yacht charters. Akasha, meaning infinite space in the ancient language of Sanskrit, is one of the most spacious luxury sailing yachts available for charter in the Caribbean today. Her magnificent flybridge design creates an unusually large area for living, entertaining and relaxing which is not usually found on other catamarans.
Liz's personal view of Akasha
Akasha is the ultimate in sailing catamarans along with her sister ships Zingara & King’s Ransom. A floating 5-star hotel, which boasts 4 crew and truly has everything you could think of from stunning cabins, a marble spa bathroom in the master suite, entertainment system and so much more. All furnishings are tasteful and elegant. This magnificent 76' Silhouette is the perfect sailing catamaran, very light with enormous sail area and cutter rigged. A large flybridge provides plenty of comfortable seating, sun loungers, shade if required as well as a convenient wet bar. The cockpit has a large outdoor dining area with ample room to seat 10 guests. Akasha has two captains and two first mates (rotate every 4 months), all of whom originate from the UK and have RYA qualifications, along with additional crew of a stewardess and deckhand. Both crews have been chartering around the BVI for many years. One of the most luxurious charter catamarans in the British Virgin Islands which is perfect for corporate events or just an out-of-this-world luxurious vacation... and what luxury you'll revel in! Wow!

A new launch for December 2010, Avalon represents the latest achievement in charter catamaran design from Lagoon. Five spacious queen-berth guest suites, all en-suite, an open and airy saloon with a nearly 360 degree view, and a wide flybridge all come together to create floating elegance, style, and utility. Combine these excellent design factors with an outstanding and experienced crew and you find Avalon, a little bit of chartering-heaven, floating in the British Virgin Islands.
Liz's personal view of Avalon
Available from mid Dec 2010, Avalon is a brand new 62’ Lagoon catamaran offering an abundance of space for up to 10 guests. Featuring 5 large staterooms with en suite bathrooms, this stunning yacht is finished in light wood with comfortable furnishings. Avalon is all about space and boasts a generous fly bridge with far-reaching, uninterrupted views. She has all the amenities, electronics, water toys, underwater lights, diving you could possibly want  – you name it, this yacht has it!

Clever design gives Fantasy Island more useable space than other yachts of her size, allowing her to accommodate up to 10 guests in air-conditioned staterooms with queen- sized beds and vacuum-flush toilets. Four of these cabins are very large and the fifth is smaller, but still comfortable. Her crew of two (three as needed) occupies two additional cabins, with their own head and shower.
Liz's personal view of Fantasy Island
A professional crew who have been sailing around the islands for several years and have now settled on Fantasy Island warmly welcomes all their guests. Accommodating up to 10 people makes this stunning yacht ideal for larger groups of families or friends.

From the moment you arrive, experience style, grace and adventure!  Yacht Felicia, a 65' Privilège catamaran, provides all-inclusive charters throughout the Virgin Islands. Felicia's elegance sets her apart in a class of exclusive catamarans. She is incredibly spacious and she has been constructed and maintained to extremely high standards. Not only does she provide an ideal environment for groups of up to 8 adults, but she is equally well suited to a family vacation or  two families who wish to relax in comfort together.  Your crew will tailor your itinerary based on the things you would like to experience and see during your charter. The requirements of guests will always differ. Some will prefer a greater emphasis on watersports, others on secluded beaches and yet others on excursions ashore. Our constant theme, however, is that you will enjoy the freedom that no other holiday will match. Privacy and discretion are, of course, guaranteed.
Liz's personal view of Felicia
Felicia is like a brand new boat, having had a major refit in 2008. She is absolutely gorgeous inside and out, extremely spacious and can accommodate up to 10 guests in style and comfort. Felicia offers a combination of queen cabins, one cabin with bunks and one king suite all beautifully furnished. The yacht is extremely airy with plenty of headroom for taller guests. Chris and Julie are the owners/operators and have certainly got an eye for design judging by their tasteful choices of decor and amenities aboard Felicia. They have been successfully chartering in the Virgin Islands for many years. You can't go wrong - a great boat plus a wonderful crew ensures an amazing vacation sailing in the BVI.
