New cat, big beam. TRANQUILA is a 59-foot Fountaine Pajot catamaran built in 2024, with a 31-foot beam that pays off in extra deck space and fewer traffic jams. She sleeps 8 guests.
Easy water access. The hydraulic swim platform is the start button for the day. Quick dips, straightforward boarding, and a setup that makes water time feel like the default, not a special event.
Toys for all ages. Two stand-up paddleboards, a two-person kayak, a surfboard/wakeboard, and two underwater scooters keep the schedule pleasantly busy. Snorkel gear for 8, an underwater camera, plus a floating bar and floating chairs. Sorted.
Cabins that make sense. Four ensuite queen cabins, each with its own shower, and a generously sized master suite with double the space of a standard guest cabin. Full air conditioning and onboard WiFi for when someone needs a “quick check-in” that becomes 45 minutes.
Accommodation
Tranquila offers accommodations for up to eight guests in four ensuite queen cabins. The master suite is generously sized, offering double the space of a standard guest cabin, while all cabins feature private ensuite bathrooms with showers, high thread count linens and complimentary toiletries for maximum comfort.Captain Only

Reviews
WOW! We had the most amazing week with you two. The absolute best captains and chefs around the islands. What a way to spend my 50th birthday!
From island hopping to going to some of your favorite spots. This being our second time sailing with you guys, it was as amazing as the first. We look forward to hearing how your new business explodes and know you will do wonderful things!
Love,
Greg, Erin, Sarah, John and August
Thank y'all so much for the best week! We love you guys!!
What a fantastic trip! Each day was filled with beautiful views, delicious food and unforgettable experiences. You made us all feel at home, especially the kids. They adored every one of your amazing meals, each fun activity and all of the gorgeous white sand beaches.
Thank you for the tubing, the lobster and the laughs. On top of everything special you did for us, I can't thank you enough for the impromptu Easter Bunny scavenger hunt. How thoughtful of you to make sure the Easter Bunny could make it onboard with candies and treats. I could not have imagined a more magical trip. And did I mention the food!!! Every single bite was better than the last. The carbonara, the risotto, the panna cotta, the crème brûlée. We loved every bite. This trip couldn't have been any better.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
All the best,
Neal and Natalie,
Emma, Charlie and Aiden
