Step aboard our 2021 luxury 67ft Fountaine Pajot catamaran (refitted 2025), where
superyacht-level service meets eco-conscious exploration. Designed for travelers who crave
both barefoot luxury and authentic adventure, this yacht is more than a floating villa — it’s a
sanctuary for 10 guests in 5 queen size cabins, who value sustainability, thrill, and discovery.
From her vibrant interiors inspired by Caribbean beaches, to her arsenal of water toys, custom
expedition tender, and adrenaline-charged activities, every moment on board is tailored for
those who live for experience. Guided by a crew of three passionate sailors, including a chef
who cooks the colors of the rainbow with ethically sourced ingredients, your journey is elevated
with heart, skill, and intention.
The Lifestyle: Barefoot Luxury, Untamed Adventure
Life aboard is a seamless blend of relaxation, play, and discovery. Our ethos is rooted in marine
conservation and off-the-beaten-path exploration — so your itinerary is not just curated, but
custom-built for how you want to experience the Caribbean.
Spend mornings unwinding on the forward terrace which also has a jacuzzi, afternoons
exploring hidden anchorages, and evenings gathered under the stars with five-star service at
your fingertips. Whether it’s quiet reflection, family connection, or adrenaline-fueled fun, your
yacht flows effortlessly with your rhythm.
⛵ The Flybridge: Your Floating Retreat
Our expansive flybridge was designed for moments that feel larger than life. Elevated above the

relaxation to celebration with ease.

colors, textures, and spirit of island beaches, blending barefoot luxury with vibrant design.
Each cabin offers private TVs, sound systems, and climate-controlled comfort, while the salon
provides a welcoming hub for gathering. Dining is a highlight, led by our creative chef who crafts
dishes bursting with color and flavor — always using ethically and locally sourced ingredients.

experiences that fuel adventure and joy.
Housekeeping & Guest Comfort: Five-Star Details

Brandon grew up in South Africa and when school holidays came around, his family would head to the coast where he spent his time on boats and in the ocean. At age 14, he completed his Open Water Diving, from there he followed his love for diving, which led him to not only get certified as a Divemaster in Sodwana Bay, Mozambique, but he ended up staying on as an Employee and Instructor.
He has a passion for fishing, spearfishing and freediving. With an interest in sailing, he joined the charter industry with his brother and he continued to work as a Chef on board in the British Virgin Islands for half a decade before being offered a Base Manager position in Saint Vincent & The Grenadines.
The timing was right for him to pursue his biggest dream of becoming a Captain and he gave up his management position to jump back on board and do what he loves most, exploring the oceans above and below sea level.
Not only is he also a masseuse, but he is also the secret keeper for ‘Brandon's secret spots’ in the BVI which he loves to take guests to.

Now a formally trained chef from the South African Chefs Academy, Arno specializes in fresh, from-scratch dishes that fuse comfort, creativity, and a hint of South African flair. His guests love his warm hospitality just as much as his home-baked breads and vibrant, locally inspired menus.
