Spirit
(Ideal 2 passenger yacht)


Inquire for specials offered throughout the year.

Honeymoon/Anniversary Specials: Spirit has an ongoing honeymoon and anniversary special discount of $250 off any bookings.

This includes champagne breakfasts and picnics ashore, engraved gifts, DVD of Adventures with Spirit, plus photo CD with underwater video clips. AC is included three times a day. A beautiful yacht with wonderful people on board.


Corus
(Perfect  for Divers and for 2 passengers)

This Whitby 42 has been owned by Bill and Ann Hastead for many years.  They know the  waters  of the Virgin Islands and all the creatures in them like the back of their hands. Along with the combination of a good boat, great sailing, wonderful scenery, and fabulous food you cannot fail to have an enjoyable time here aboard Corus. The cruising itinerary is yours to choose - do as little or as much as you wish.

You are, after all, on your personal private floating hotel. Wake up when you like and enjoy a leisurely breakfast, go for a dip or a snorkel in the gorgeous blue water. Later you can bay hop and beach comb or sail, sail, sail all day.

Enjoy a champagne picnic on a sandy cove, kayak the shoreline or scuba dive one of the BVIs fascinating reefs or wrecks directly from the boat, under the guidance of Bill, your Personal guide and Divemaster.

Anne’s cooking is second to none. A great choice for your honeymoon or anniversary, or your marriage proposal  (which has happened several times...:) I have had rave reviews from clients when they reluctantly return home.


Phaedrus
(Perfect for 2 persons)

Professionally schooled Chef/Captain Charles and lovely Mate Leslie are the perfect team to welcome you aboard their Morgan 50. Phaedrus is a sleek, well found, roomy and fast greyhound of a sailing yacht.

She is in top-notch condition for you to enjoy in the large well appointed guest cabin, built for two.  She has expansive decks for sun bathing or while savoring that Sun Downer when the sun sinks below the horizon (watch for that green flash—it’s real!) Charles and Leslie have been sailing these waters for many many years.

My clients have come back again and again. You need to book early as repeat  guests crowd their schedule each year. I am very proud to offer Phaedrus for charter.


Featured 4-6 passenger Monohulls
(Please note: All Monohulls listed to carry 6-8 passengers

Crystal Clear

Crystal Clear is a joy to be aboard. Aside from the beautiful exterior, the interior is decorated beautifully to welcome you to supreme comfort aboard. Cabins are ample and airy.

Captain CHARLY ZAHR, is the Chef and owner, and is an Open Water Diver (PADI). He developed his experience on the Atlantic Coasts of Argentina and the Caribbean for several years. While studying Electrical Engineering at the Univ. of Buenos Aires, he realized the magnificence and joy of life on board, alternating studies with his career as musician and singer (always being the principal attraction in every social event, where ever you wanted to have a moment of joy and unforgettable fun).

With a spirit of adventure and the BVI licensed captain decided to turn his dream into reality, sailing through the most beautiful Caribbean landscapes, sharing his spirit with those who want to enjoy life. His engineering skills and applied technical abilities combined with his excellent seamanship, grant you comfort and safety. You will have great fun aboard with Capt. Charly and his able Belgian mate, Tom.



Verna Breeze
(Perfect for 4, especially children, in one Queen cabin and one with two bunks with bathrooms connected—Casual Diving for Certified divers on board)

The two captain/owners, Chris and Kelly of Verna Breeze are a terrific pair aboard their lovely yacht. 8 years ago they bought Verna Breeze, sold everything and started on their adventure! Having cruised the waters between the Chesapeake Bay and the Caribbean down to Venezuela, they would like to share our adventure with you and  welcome you aboard their home and cruising yacht to share the dream and enjoy all the islands have to offer.

Whether it’s a relaxing week in the sun laying in hammocks with a few strolls on the beach or a fun filled week of play, diving, snorkeling, fishing, and looking for the best bars in the Caribbean come and experience what many of their guests have, with a week of paradise aboard their lovely home. Though new to the charter scene, their calendar is filling in with rave reviews from guests aboard. You will laugh all week long!

Try the award winning Panty Dropper Punch, or maybe the new creation, a Banana Whacker. So let Chris share his passion for the islands with you as he has with many others and get ready for the best vacation you can imagine.


Featured 6-8 person Monohulls


Cap2 
(Comfort for up to 8 passengers)

A performance cruiser, CAP II is more than a fantastic sailing yacht; she is luxurious and comfortable, and a joy to be aboard. She is operated from her aft cockpit, leaving the center cockpit for her guests to sun, sightsee and enjoy al fresco meals.

A powerful sailing machine, CAP II is very stable, offering her guests a smooth, comfortable ride. Luxurious cruising accommodations aboard CAP II are for six to eight guests in four beautifully appointed double staterooms.

You set the pace and itinerary aboard CAP II; your professional, courteous crew will do the rest. Captain Eddy Guzman and Enora make a perfect team, offering world class cuisine, a wonderful wine list and fabulous sailing experiences.


Yacht Liberte
(Comfort up to 8 passengers. Welcoming all down-island charters as well)

Yacht Liberte’ is strong, beautiful and is ready to take you anywhere. She is a true ocean-going vessel with thousands of miles under her capable keel. Your skipper is 61 and started sailing at the age of 12 in an old wooden sloop which he bought for ten dollars in Cape Town, South Africa.

Captain Gordon Monson is one of the most accomplished (and hilariously irreverent, I might add) skippers there is. He has represented South Africa in world competitions in Hawaii, France, the USA and at home, and raced the 1993 Cape-to-Rio Trans Atlantic. He was a qualified Marine surveyor for Lloyds of London and specialized in Marine Losses.

Gordon has sailed in excess of 100,000 nautical miles, has completed 8 major ocean crossings and has worked, chartered and sailed the Islands of the Caribbean for 10 years, from Trinidad in the South to the British Virgin Islands in the North.

Hobbies and interests are, predictably, sailing and meeting interesting people, water-sports and reading. Gordon is a qualified skipper and has obtained his Yacht Master certifications.

His fun and capable crew will see to your every need.


Stenella
(excellent accommodations for up to 6 guests, all inclusive or Captain Only)

View her sailing in the British Virgin Islands here via YouTube:

Yet another of my favorite Monohulls, Stenella, with Captain Andrew Woodruff is simply a sailing machine, and lovely inside and out. He and his capable crew have been a fixture in these waters for so many years. He knows the area...well.

Very well. He scouts wildlife everywhere, and films the experience for his guests. Charter in late winter, early spring and sail with the Humpback whales! I’ve had excellent reviews from this lovely yacht.

Note: He is now offering Captain Only charters at a very reasonable rate. Inquire, please.
