Yacht Description
Modern 59ft cat. PORT TO VINO is a 2023 Fountaine Pajot catamaran that sleeps 8 in four queen cabins, each with its own ensuite. Big beam (30ft), so people can spread out without the usual “sorry, coming through” routine.
Easy water access. Two stern swim platforms and a stern boarding ladder make swim stops simple and low-drama. Quick rinse after with the deck shower. Done.
Toys for active days. You get two paddleboards, a two-person kayak, a wakeboard, adult water skis, plus snorkel gear with an underwater camera and underwater video setup, so the best moments do not stay trapped in someone’s phone.
Comfort stays on. Full air conditioning, onboard WiFi, and a salon TV/stereo with a multimedia system cover the downtime hours, while the bimini and BBQ keep the outdoor setup functional for long lunches and late snacks.

Charter Reviews
The yacht was extremely comfortable and well organized.
We had 4 children ages 7-15 and they all had a wonderful time on their first Caribbean cruise! The parents were also able to relax thanks to Jeff and Caitlin and their attention.
As an extra bonus, Caitlin's knowledge of marine biology added fun to our snorkels! We loved her energy and engaging personality!
It was a fabulous week!
