300 miles of Caribbean Island hopping
I am offering 3 cabins on Bluevana which is a 2023 Lagoon 42 catamaran for this seasons 5th and final leg. We will be sailing and cruising 300 miles over a 3 week period. We leave Fort-de- France in Martinique on June 10 and arrive in Chaguaramas, Trinidad June 30. I am not in a hurry so will be taking our time island hopping St. Lucia, St Vincent, the Grenadine Islands and Grenada. We will enjoy some of the amazing scuba dive and snorkeling sites as well as get some kiteboarding in, hike and explore the local cultures. We have 2 SUPs, a two person kayak and many beach toys to enjoy the sandy beaches and amazing coves. This is not a formal charter so crew to participate in the regular daily chores like cooking, cleaning and keeping the living area organized. Crew to pay own travel expenses to and from the boat as well as contribute $150 per day per cabin. Contributions go towards 2 meals a day onboard (Breakfast and 1 other as well as snacks) customs fees for each country and boat running expenses. Crew responsible for personal food, drinks and activities on land.
If someone is looking for a formal captain charter and are willing to pay $3000-5000 per week per cabin, there are many out there and many are quite good. I have heard many good things about Sailing Luna. Dream yacht and some other larger companies also offer captain charters as well.
This experience I am offering is unique:
• Less expensive: I charge $150/day vs most charters charge $500 - $800 per day
• Longer periods: We usually do 20-30 days which allows the feel of what it is like to live on a Catamaran, experience a more relaxed journey and be able to pick better weather windows.
• Larger cruising ground: We explore multiple countries.
Ideal crew would be upbeat, outgoing, openminded and ready to make adventurous memories. Those with sailing experience will be welcome to help sail, set anchor, pick up mooring balls and dock. Those without sailing experience are welcome to learn as much as they want and help sail as well. This would be a great opportunity for those looking to buy a boat as Bluevana is set up well for offshore, independent sailing and has many custom modifications for live-a-board.
