Boatox Yacht Description
-
Hydraulic Swim Platform:
Effortless water access and toy launching for seamless swimming and family fun on the water. -
Inflatable Floating Island & Floating Mats:
Unique large floating toys perfect for kids and adults to lounge, relax, or play together on water. -
Starlink Satellite Internet & Onboard Wi-Fi:
Reliable internet keeps guests connected for work or leisure while enjoying uninterrupted luxury at sea.
Front-row seats to the ocean show: BOATOX is a 2024 Leopard 50 with a rare combo of a full flybridge lounge, forward cockpit access, and a hydraulic swim platform – meaning you get three prime outdoor hangout zones instead of one. Top deck for 360° views and sundowners, foredeck for quiet coffee and breezy shade, aft deck for serious meals and not-so-serious stories.
Designed for six people who actually like comfort: Three queen cabins, all en-suite, including a true master cabin with island bed and big hull windows. Each has individual A/C control, so the “I like it Arctic / I like it tropical” war ends before it starts.
Water is not just something you look at: Expect a hydraulic swim platform, snorkel gear, 2 paddleboards, solo SNUBA rigs for tankless diving, SubWing, floating dock with inflatable chairs, towable tube, kayaks, and mats. Translation: you can go from “emailing on Starlink” to “getting dragged underwater in a fun way” in under 60 seconds.
Online, even when you shouldn’t be: Starlink satellite internet and onboard Wi‑Fi keep you connected enough for remote work, market checks, or uploading proof-of-life photos to people back home who made worse choices.
Serious food, not “boat food”: A proper galley and chef on board mean structured culinary damage: gourmet seafood, tailored menus, beach BBQs, and plated dinners inside or outside. The cockpit and salon are laid out so mealtimes feel like an actual event, not a Tetris game with plates.
Why pick BOATOX over another 50' cat? Because very few cats this size combine: brand-new 2024 build, full flybridge lounge, forward cockpit access door, hydraulic swim platform, tankless SNUBA toys, Starlink, and a dedicated crew of two in separate quarters – all tuned for just six guests. It’s a compact, modern charter platform optimized for people who want to use every square meter of the boat, not just look at it.

Reviews
Captain/host was Westley. Chef/Hostess was Leandri. Both were EXCELLENT!! They were knowledgeable, skilled, friendly, fun and both were hard working. Leandri in particular “cooked up a feast “ for us at each meal. The catamaran Boatox is a beautiful boat, well appointed and well equipped. Our journey was a week of non stop activities and sailing to beautiful new places. God willing, we hope to sail again with Westley and Leandri!!

We were two couples looking to relax and our week was perfect from start to finish! The boat was new, very clean, well outfitted, and well provisioned! The crew clearly took the time to plan our meals and itinerary according to our wishes.
We immediately felt at home on the boat and the crew offered the perfect combination of professionalism and friendship! As anyone who has chartered knows, the crew can make or break your trip and this team is top notch!
Captain Westley not only guided us expertly and safely around the BVI waters, but was also proactive in reserving prime mooring balls, arranging ground transportation and helping us make itinerary decisions.
Leandri is an exquisite chef (the best we've had on the three charters we've taken!). She somehow managed to make four people with different tastes extremely happy with EVERY meal! Her presentation was also incredible. A feast for the eyes and palate! She also gave excellent advise on the best snorkeling spots and land activities. I need to mention the cocktails too...they were to die for!!!
We truly relaxed and felt at home all week. Westley and Leandri made us feel welcome, pampered and became fast friends!!
We can't thank them enough for a fabulous vacation!!!!
With that being said it could not have happened so seamlessly without Captain Westley and First Mate/Chef Leandri. From our first communication it was obvious they both took pride in their jobs and the boat. Boatox was very clean upon our arrival and remained that way throughout our vacation. The food and drinks were fantastic, and even tailored to individual’s likes and dislikes. We experienced amazing sailing with very high winds thanks to Westley’s expertise. He picked the perfect spot to moar each day to explore and relax. I am grateful to have met Westley & Leandri and for the pampering they gave us. None of us would change a thing.
This was a 5 star vacation with a 5 star crew that my family will treasure forever!
Captain Westley expertly and safely navigated us to all the best spots and Chef Leandri crafted the most beautiful and delicious meals every single day. They were a joy to be with and honestly made the experience even better if that’s possible. We couldn’t have imagined a better trip without them.
This truly was such an amazing and once in a lifetime experience that we will never forget!
I should also mention that I had never used a broker before but John Dewhurst from Yacht Vacations couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating. He held our hand as to the steps contracting the yacht as well as the arrangements as to where you pick up the yacht and go through customs etcetera. He called several times just to make sure everything was going well and to make sure we did not have any concerns or questions. I should point out that the one time we had a concern, John immediately got the issue resolved.
Thanks Lee, Wesley, and John for making this a memorable and fantastic experience!
We’re amazing in every way! They had the perfect balance of professionalism and becoming our friends for the week, and we now consider them friends for a lifetime! Westley was not only a great captain, but also super helpful with all the extras, such as boat accessories, fishing, etc. He was always willing to go above and beyond to make our days fun and interesting! Leandri was such a great addition for all of us! . Our daughter loved her fun spirit, especially when she jumped with her from Willie Ts! Leandri’s cooking skills were spot on! She created the perfect menu based on our preference sheet and was totally prepared for our daughter‘s picky palate! None of us went hungry for the week and we were pleased with every single meal. Not only was it delicious, it looked beautiful.
The boat itself was perfect for our family! It was very pretty and I think only a year old. The master bedroom was more spacious than I expected and the beds were super comfy! There were plenty of spots for lounging and sitting while going to different locations. We would definitely book Boatox again or recommend to friends and family!
Starting with the crew - Leandri and Westley...Amazing! You can tell they have a passion for what they do and they took care of us like no other. The food was off the chart - and we ate most all of our meals on the boat. They were extremely accommodating and when we tried to help with anything and everything (which we're all wired to do!) they would not let us. One of the highlights of this trip was getting to know them and their story - just fantastic people!
The islands are breathtaking. Lea and Westley planned us an amazing itinerary which included Peter Island, Norman Island, Leverick Bay, Virgin Gorda, Guana Island and Jost Van Dyke. We hit Willy T's for a drink, Soggy Dollar, Foxy's, The Baths, The Bubbly Pool, spent New Year's Eve at the Bitter End. We went into the week with some knowledge to what we would be doing - and found it best to wake up each morning and ask Lea and Westley where the day would lead us...of course each day was perfect.
The boat was out of this world! We learned that is was built in 2024 - it was beautiful. We never felt crowded - had plenty of space. They have tons of toys on board (Paddle boards, rafts, etc) that we enjoyed and the cabin rooms were perfect.
To go back to the food - I want to reiterate how great it was. Breakfast each morning was a great way to start the day and for the dinners we enjoyed pastas, paella, gourmet burgers, STEAK, Gyros! I know I'm forgetting a few - but each meal was unbelievable. Usually we ate lunch on land somewhere. There were plenty of snacks on board and of course I cannot leave out the cocktails were amazing. Lea made the most amazing drinks - especially the Pain Killers on New Year's Day - which could not have been delivered at a more perfect time. We enjoyed great wine, plenty of Caribs, etc...
Derek was great to work with in getting everything booked - and we were actually able to meet him as we boarded the boat. Fantastic job my friend - it wildly exceed ALL of our expectations.
To wrap things up - I wanted to highlight some of the notable "experiences" we had along the way...
We took a water taxi to the Boatox named "Cap'n Crunch". For folks that grew up in the 70s and 80s - I don't need to explain how special this is...
For our trips to The Baths - we rode with a driver named "Tiger". We quickly understood that he basically ran the island - and we knew we could call him for anything :) !
The vibe at Soggy Dollar was outstanding. Tons of people just meeting tons of other people and having a great time. As the bartender "Big Bird" said as he was drumming up a few Pain Killers - "Everybody at this place is happy man!"
If you do the BVIs - you will see boats that blow your mind. HUGE boats! But - you know that those folks in those boats are not having a better time than the Boatox!
So...To Lea, Westley, Derek, and the rest of the staff at The Yacht Vacation Company - hats off to ALL of you. You delivered such an amazing trip that we will never forget! I've included one picture of our entire group that Lea took. Pictures are always worth a thousand words!
All the best Lea and Westley - and we can't wait to meet up again!
We love y'all!!!!
