Modern Bali, simple living. ISLAND STANDARD TIME is a Bali Catamarans sailing cat built in 2021, set up to sleep 8 guests. Wide beam, lots of usable deck space, and no need to play musical chairs.
Deck flow matters. You get a flybridge with lounging and 360-degree views, plus both forward and aft cockpit areas for dining and hanging out. Different moods, same boat. Convenient.
Easy water days. The swim platform and boarding ladder make it painless to get in and out, and the outdoor shower keeps the salt situation under control. BBQ on board for low-effort lunches that somehow turn into long dinners.
Toys without drama. Expect snorkeling gear, two paddleboards, sea scooters, and a wakeboard, plus floating mats and a floating dock for a stable “just one more swim” base. Wi-Fi and full air conditioning handle the between-adventures part.

This was the best trip ever. We were treated like kings and queens and the food Cian prepared was absolutely superb. We appreciate all the planning that Sol did and hitting all of the highlights we had bookmarked before the trip. It was a first class trip all the way. Thanks so much!

Best vacation. Most of my pics are of our meals. Hope I learned a few tricks! The crew were terrific, we will tell all of our friends about Island Standard Time. Thank you for all your special attention.
Paul
Thank you so very much for an absolutely awesome week. We loved every moment on teh boat. The food was so delicious and beautifully decorated. It is going to be hard to go back home to our boring meals.
You guys did such a fantastic job hosting us! Your kindness and caring was boundless! Thank you also for letting Ken be part of the sailing experience. I know he loved it and will be telling everyone at home how he helped sail the boat :) You guys rock!!
We are so thankful that you were our crew and we sure hope to be back on one of your boats again one day soon.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts
Sabine & Ken
They were incredibly accommodating, and the food was unbelievably good. Each meal somehow topped the previous one — every single one was outstanding. It honestly exceeded all expectations. I can send photos if you’d like.
Overall, it was a fantastic trip — 100%, five-star service all the way around. Great fun, beautiful boat, wonderful crew, and an unforgettable experience.
Nickey
Truly, thank you so much for the best time, we will recommend you heartily to everyone we know!
Captain Sol & Chef Cian far exceeded all expectations! Their willingness to take us to the most special waters off the beaten path truly made for everlasting memories. They are so kind and professional.
Cian's meeals can be considered works of art. It is said 'first we feast with our eyes', and we did, every day, all day!! The BVI waters are so inviting, every stop was another opportunity to swim, play, relax.
We were so surprised to just how large 'Island Standard Time' lived. Seven of us + the crew and we never felt cramped. A perfect boat for us. True luxury. Till we meet again (and we will), thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
Every meal Tash prepared was a culinary masterpiece! She even made fresh bread throughout the week and catered to our preferences. One of our favorites was a breakfast of freshly made bagels with lox - delicious! One of our shared favorite memories was when we had an opportunity to play pickleball at Peter Island Resort followed up with a beautiful hike. Tash had snacks and drinks ready for us when we got back which was the perfect welcoming for us. As we sit here on our last day in the BVI, we look back on fantastic memories made alongside two new friends. Many thanks to Caydon and Tash!!
