LOCATION 5.4 (DRIFT for 2026) Yacht Description
-
Inflatable Jet Ski Dock and Sea Scooters:
Unique for catamarans; fun motorized water toys add extra excitement for water lovers. -
Floating Dock and Mats:
Perfect for family play and relaxation, great for kids and adults to lounge and swim together. -
Full Air Conditioning with Outdoor Shower and Swim Platform:
Ensures comfort after water fun, allowing guests to refresh easily with ocean views.
LOCATION 5.4 is basically a floating beach club with a chef. Up top you get a full flybridge lounge with 360° views; up front, a dedicated forward cockpit; aft, a separate dining cockpit. Three outdoor social zones on a 55ft Bali cat means your group can spread out, disappear, reappear with a drink, and never feel cramped.
Built 2022, LOCATION 5.4 sleeps 8 guests in 4 queen en-suite cabins, all with individual climate control. Translation: everyone gets a real cabin, real shower, real AC, and no “you’re-on-the-sofa-sorry” politics.
The toy locker is unapologetically active: sea scooters, Subwing, 2 paddleboards, wakeboard, tube, kneeboard, floating dock, mats, noodles, and snorkeling gear. Add a rentable eFoil for the week if you want to upgrade from “vacation” to “origin story.”
Onboard life is engineered for low-effort comfort: full air-conditioning, water maker, generator, Wi‑Fi, satellite TV, indoor audio, big swim platform with scoop steps, and a serious BBQ setup. You move from water to sun to shade to shower to dinner without ever needing shoes or patience.
The real edge is the crew. Captain Nik is a qualified RYA Yachtmaster who treats anchorages like a curated playlist, and Chef Lily runs a restaurant-level galley—think chimichurri steak, fresh catch, tacos, and full dessert game from pavlova to chocolate fondant. If food matters to your charter, this is not a background detail; it’s the main feature.
In short: LOCATION 5.4 is for groups who want serious space, serious toys, and serious food on a modern catamaran—without the superyacht theater.

Captain Nik and Chef Lily- Your hospitality, heart, and humor made this amazing adventure that much more extraordinary. The food, the cocktails, and attention to detail was top tier. We felt the love from the beginning. We will always remember our beach lunches and all our other incredible meals.
There are good ships and there are wood ships, the ships that sail the sea, but the best ships are friendships, and may they always be.
Thank you for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime for our family.
Dibernardo
Thank you Nik and Lily for going above and beyond in every way. We were so beyond impressed with your work, but what we will cherish most is the bond we’ve formed with you both. Grateful to now call you friends.

Loved getting to know you both and thank you so much for all the delicious treats! Come see us in Denver.

We can't thank you enough for leading us on such a magical adventure in the Bahamas. The boat was beautiful, the weather amazing, and the sights completely beautiful, but it may be the sincere energy, enthusiasm, and kindness from the two of you that we remember and appreciate the most. We recognize all the preparation and effort it takes to deliver such wonderful food and exciting excursions - you guys do it all with grace and provide such lovely company all the while, even when we threw curve balls like lost luggage and had to reach friends. We wish you both all the best and look forward to our paths crossing again in the future!
Thanks for a great trip! -George
Your love of fabulous food is evident in everything you do! We had the best week with you two! Thank you thank you! - Julie

What a fantastic adventure! Thanks for the amazing food, wine and cocktails. Love the attention to detail, great swimming and snorkeling, the tender in the waves, the "shark attacks" cappuccino, sausage rolls, lobster, the tiny snapper! Lot's of "wine o'clock" anytime of the day, late night drinks at 9pm! Lots of laughing! Loved it all!! Best Penny
Each days excursions were well thought out. Something new to see and do each day. You both have the perfect temperament to entertain and we pushed it hard from early morning to late at night. Nick was so patient and accommodating with all our various requests and different levels of abilities.
I can't say what was my favorite activity because they were all so different and interesting. Thank you for a week I'll never forget. Please, please come visit us in Kansas. Not as beautiful as your Caribbean, but would be a great place for you to base a Midwest tourist trip from.
Sincerely, Nancy & Tim
The catamaran was ideal in every way and the tender made little trips off the boat fantastic.
We even caught a grouper!
The boat was ideal, but adding you two to the trip makes it worth doing again! Thanks for everything you did!
-Sharon
Thank you for the best vacation of all time. I really enjoyed getting to know you both :)
