Motek Yacht Description
Introduced by DMA Yachting, the impressive charter yacht Motek is a 56 ft sailing catamaran. The most attractive features of Motek are her generous space and inviting socializing areas. Motek spends the summer and winter season in US Virgin Islands. She was delivered by the well-known ship builder Bali Catamarans in 2023. The expansive yacht layout features 5 cozy cabins and comfortably accommodates a group of 10 guests.
Motek is classified primarily as a sailing catamaran. The central space of the yacht is the main saloon, which connects to the aft deck. The aft deck is generous, with a prominent dining and seating area and usually it is where you, as a charter guest, spend most of your time. The tasteful cabins are located below the main saloon, connected by stairs (inquire about handicapped access).

Captain Fransisco
Ahoy there! I'm a sailor with a serious case of wanderlust that seeks adventure on the high seas. I'm a Swiss Army Knife of the high seas. Over 12+ years, I've honed my skills on cruise ships, sailboats, motorboats, and tenders. I can handle boat systems with ease, keep things shipshape with
equipment knowledge, and even whip up some hospitality magic to ensure guests have an unforgettable experience. But hey, I'm not all work and no play. I'm easy-going who can add a dash of fun who is more than willing to teach you to sail while you're on board!
Another big extra is that I am a proven photojournalist with more than 15 years of experience so you would have some photos in the process of sailing and feel free to imagine me heroically fixing a tangled mess of lines with a smile (and maybe a sea shanty on my lips).
Chef Romain
Passionate about cooking since my childhood, I have been lucky enough to make it my job for almost 10 years. I am autonomous in my work and a master of the hot and cold station. I also really enjoy teamwork, creating dishes, menus and managing the work of a brigade. I also like to travel, both in my plates and in life. Hobbies include handball, skiing, & cycling. I will ensure a fabulous culinary experience throughout the course of your stay on Motek!

It's impossible to express our gratitude and appreciation for you and your knowledge and skills with words! Please know that your presence on our trip was impactful far beyond this week. The memories and experiences we all shared will stay with us for many years to com. We wish you the best in all your future endeavors on and off the water. Kevin and Veronica
the perfect itinerary - adjusting as necessary to wind conditions, etc. He was actually very knowledgeable and open to figuring out new spots. He was excellent.
The meals were absolutely outstanding. Literally every meal was perfect and Chef Romaine really
responded to the preference sheet and our input into the menu - which was greatly appreciated. All of us on board felt like Chef Romaine was one of, if not the, best chefs we've had in all of our trips.
We couldn't be more happy!
"We had an amazing time on the with Francisco! He was an incredible host, making us feel comfortable and safe throughout the entire day. We snorkeled, swam, and sunbathed at the beautiful Cap Blanc anchorage, and Francisco even prepared delicious Spanish snacks and drinks for us to enjoy. It was a perfect day! We highly recommend Francisco to anyone looking for a memorable experience in Majorca Bay.” - Sam and Anna.
stopping in Port Andratx, Deià, Sóller, Cala Calobra, and many other beautiful places. The scenery
was breathtaking, the food was delicious, and we had so much fun snorkeling, swimming, and just
relaxing. Francisco was a great captain who made us feel safe at all times. I would highly
recommend him to anyone looking for a fun and relaxing charter experience “
This trip was a unique experience! Magical places ,excellent service and amazing food! The meals reflected the freshest ingredients, and they were beautifully presented and full of flavor. The chef took the time to get to know our dietary preferences and created an unforgettable culinary journey.
