Our world-class Sail catamarans are specially designed by renowned builder Robertson & Caine with The Moorings charter guests in mind. Contemporary styling, spacious integrated indoor/outdoor living spaces and the latest technological advances come together for the ultimate charter vacation platform offering stability and extraordinary ease of handling.
Some of the innovative, charter-enhancing features of our catamarans include forward seating areas, electric swim/dinghy platforms and expansive raised fly bridges with wrap-around seating. Come and experience The Moorings Difference with the newest fleet in the industry.
The Moorings is proud to partner with Robertson and Caine to offer their award-winning catamarans for charter vacations. Founded in 1991, this renowned manufacturer has grown from a small partnership into one of the most celebrated catamaran builders in the world today.
For the rest of us landlubbers, the only option is to sign up for a crewed charter—even if that "crew" means only one captain. Hired captains will also act as a tour guide, historian, and possibly an occasional drinking companion when you want one. Most importantly, they can offer invaluable advice and help you plan an itinerary that suits your interests.
The Grenadines includes the big island of St. Vincent (including quiet Wallilabou Bay, where Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed), Bequia, Carriacou, Union Islands, and several private islands, including the luxurious Palm Island and Petit St. Vincent. here
There are many yacht-chartering options in the Caribbean, ranging from individual owners who will happily serve as captain and crew and take you around the islands on their boat to big companies that have fleets of boats available for bareback, crewed, or learn-to-sail journeys. here
However, experienced boaters will tell you that the best way to see multiple islands in the Caribbean at your own pace is by chartering a private yacht. Invite some friends along with you and this pricey-sounding adventure could even be more affordable than you realize—or at least equal to what you'd pay for a high-end hotel room.
Can you sail? Can you do it well enough to be entrusted with an unfamiliar boat in unfamiliar waters? If so, then you could consider a bareback charter, but you will need to have a sailing license or be able to show sufficient proof of your sailing experience. [links]
There are about 7,000 in the Caribbean, but most travelers only have time to visit one or two during their vacation. Typically, most people fly in and stay put or maybe they'll take a cruise, which only allows for quick visits at all the predetermined ports of call. It's understandable why so few people go island-hopping, since regional airlines are expensive, and ferry service between islands is often limited or nonexistent.
