Having a boat in the charter fleet has allowed me to vacation like a rock star. I get to take my friends and family to the most beautiful islands in the world and experience them through the intimacy of my own private yacht. It’s all the benefits of owning a private yacht without any of the burdens. Yo ho, yo ho, a Sunsail life for me!

After several years of sailing our own boat, we decided to subscribe to Sunsail’s charter management program. There are several reasons for this: Sunsail takes care of the maintenance and wintering of the boat, Sunsail’s bases offer good geographical coverage, and the quality of the Leopard catamarans.
What a pleasure to arrive on a boat, ready to go, cleaning done, beds made, towels available, equipment flawless, in short a 4-star service. As soon as we arrived at Tortola’s superb Road Town marina, and after a detailed briefing on navigation and points of interest in the Virgin Islands (including restaurants), all we had to do was make the most of this idyllic location.

Having sailed 40′, 45′, 47′, 50′ Leopard Catamarans a combined 3,500+ NM over the past two and a half years I strongly recommend them for performance oriented cruising. Additional positive experiences have come from owning and operating a 2021 Sunsail 454L based in BVIs now half way through the charter contract. Making use of the owners’ time has afforded amazing sailing internationally. There have been no unpleasant surprises and few concerns.
