US Virgin Islands
Caribbean
Start in St. Thomas and drift to the empty white sand of St. John, where two-thirds of the island is protected national park and the snorkeling begins right off the beach.
The anchoragesSailboat fun. Amenities you expect. Luxury you want.
Built in South Africa and lovingly maintained, Celestine is a 59-foot Voyage sailing catamaran with five ensuite queen cabins, air conditioning throughout, and a chef who lives aboard.
Five queen cabins
Five staterooms of similar size. Each has under-bed storage, a wardrobe, and its own ensuite head with an electric toilet, a shower, a sink, and a vanity.
Indoor-outdoor flow
An electronic window and door open the salon straight onto the forward cockpit.
Four social zones
Four places to gather: the forward cockpit for sun, the shaded aft deck for open-air dining, the salon with its panoramic windows, and the flybridge for sunset.
High-end comforts
Celestine has air conditioning throughout (11 units), Starlink internet, a watermaker, an icemaker, a TV and audio system in the salon, two dishwashers, and seven refrigerators.
Onboard private chef
A private chef cooks restaurant-quality meals on board, from plated dinners to casual island fare.
Water toys
Two paddleboards, an e-foil, an underwater Seabob, and an inflatable Hangout come out at every anchorage, and the tender takes you exploring.

Pay for your charter over time
Our partner Charter Smarter's Yacht Vacation Layaway lets you secure Celestine with a 15% deposit, then spread the balance across equal monthly payments, split between up to five guests.
How booking works
Start with a charter broker. The price is the same either way, so a broker costs you nothing extra and does the rest of this list for you.
-
Step 1
Find a broker
A broker knows these islands and these yachts, and can compare them for you. Yours asks us to hold the week, then handles every step below.
-
Step 2
Hold the week
The week goes on hold for up to two weeks: long enough to book flights and settle your group before you sign anything.
-
Step 3
Sign the agreement
You sign the Charter Yacht Brokers Association agreement and pay the deposit it sets. The money goes into escrow at Paradise Yacht Clearing, never to the yacht.
-
Step 4
Plan the week
A preference sheet arrives 45 days out. Then the crew calls to shape the route and the menu. The balance is due before you board.
