Introduced by DMA Yachting, the impressive charter yacht LIR is a 67 ft sailing catamaran. The most valuable elements of LIR are her generous space and fantastic layout. LIR spends the season in British Virgin Islands. She was completed by recognized shipbuilder Fountaine Pajot in 2014. A succesful refit was completed in 2024. The well-planned yacht layout features 4 cozy cabins and comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests.
LIR is classified primarily as a sailing catamaran. The yacht layout radiates from the main saloon, which connects to the aft deck. The aft deck is expansive, with a comfortable dining and seating area and usually it is where you, as a charter guest, spend most of your time. The immersive cabins offer unbeatable views in the morning and are located just below deck. The cabins are located below the main saloon, connected by stairs (inquire about handicapped access). Multiple portholes provide a connection with the natural world outside.
The sailboat features 2 x 150hp Volvo Penta engines engines and a generator.

Captain: 5/5
Comments Captain Luc is a consummate professional. His passion for the job is undeniable. He ensured we had the best experiences and was eager to answer all our questions about the boat and his career. He very much made us feel like a family with him and the crew. Couldn't have hoped for a better Captain
Rest of the crew: 5/5
Comments Sophie, Valerie, and Daniel were terrific. Sophie's meals were amazing (fresh ingredients, taste, plating). We were all surprised with something new and unique at every meal and once home were collectively saying 'I miss our Sophie'. Valerie and Daniel were incredible. Knowledgeable and professional; it's no wonder they will be the Captain of their own yacht soon. And, my goodness, are they fun! They made us feel so at home, we quickly developed a rapport with them and made many lasting memories. I can't say enough good things about all three of the crew!
How would you qualify the yacht (comfort, features, general maintenance, etc) 5/5
Comments LiR is a great vessel. Spacious and comfortable, we were very happy with the layout and accommodations.
How would you qualify the itinerary 5/5
Comments The itinerary laid out by the Captain was fantastic. The perfect mix of water sports, hiking, exploring small towns, and lounging. Stopping in a private cove for our first night was a great way to get to know the boat and acclimate to being aboard. Could not have scripted it better, but had we wanted to change it up, the Captain was very flexible which was amazing.
How would you qualify the sports and leisure activities/equipment on board 5/5
Comments There were plenty of options for us to enjoy, and we did! Tubing was especially fun.
How would you qualify the food and drinks 5/5
Comments Abundant and delicious! All meals were exceptional. And the snacks throughout the day were a great touch. So many tastes in each dish and the plating was amazing!! Sophie is a culinary genius!
How likely are you to recommend Ritzy Yachts' services to your friends and family? 5/5
Comments Couldn't have had a better experience and haven't stopped talking about the trip!
How would you qualify the entire experience of your trip 5/5
Comments This trip was booked with the idea of it being the trip of a lifetime...and it was. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
What a week we've had. Great crew – such a lovely bunch of humans, great food, lovely journey through the islands. A wonderful experience all around. Trip of a lifetime. ♥ Thank you! Loved it. Thank you guys
Our captain, Luc, was a seasoned professional who was clearly in command of the vessel but also always had time to interact with the guests on board. Everyday Luc would provide our group of 8 friends with different options for the day. In that way we could decide what we wanted to do, whether that included hiking to hidden waterfalls, snorkeling or scuba experiences, or water sports in a calm bay. Luc is also a great guitarist and singer and we enjoyed a lovely tropical drink and sang along as Luc played music under the moonlight.
Sophie was our amazing Chef onboard. It was truly remarkable that she could create such beautiful and varied meals aboard ship. Every breakfast, lunch and dinner we had aboard the LIR was gourmet quality!
And, as if this was not impressive enough, Sophie is also a scuba dive instructor and took members of our group on two dives.
Because of these varied, well honed skills Sophie is an irreplaceable member of the Crew.
Daniel was the first mate on board and Luc’s right hand man. It was clear that he was well on his way to being a Captain in
the near future. Additionally he was always available to assist in setting up water sports, transporting guests on the Tender, cleaning cabins and I have to mention he is also a great bartender!
So much talent.
The newest member of the crew is Justyna. The week we were aboard was her first week as a crew member. She was polite and helpful and seemed to work well with the Crew as she learned about her role and duties.
The LIR is a beautiful, spacious boat that was very well appointed. Many areas to relax and dine. The cabins were comfortable.
Our week on the LIR was fantastic as the boat was absolutely beautiful and the Crew was skilled, welcoming and top notch!
Shout out to the best Bougie Tender driver! Shout out to the best dive leader! We loved exploring the tiny reef nooks and crannies with you! Shout out for the passionfruit cocktails! Shout out for teaching us a new card game and giving us great ideas for future trips.
