About AVANTI
Best for: families and groups of up to eight, with active friends after water-led adventure a close second.
AVANTI is a Privilege catamaran with a standout in her toy arsenal: a dedicated 37-foot Axopar chase boat, Andiamo, that opens up anchorages and island stops well beyond what the mothership alone could reach. Built in 2005 and sailing the British Virgin Islands with a crew of four, she carries eight guests across four en-suite cabins, including a full-beam master stateroom with custom daybed, his-and-hers vanity, bidet and heated towel rack, and three queen cabins each with individual air conditioning control.
Captain Mark brings decades of Caribbean and Bahamas experience alongside a surfer and diver's instinct for finding the right spot at the right time. Chef Stephen trained at a Michelin-starred kitchen and a five-star Relais and Chateaux property in Corsica, so meals aboard match the scenery. Julia keeps the interior running with the kind of attentive, detail-first hospitality that makes a week feel effortless. Beyond the Axopar, the water toy lineup covers paddleboards, sea scooters, wakeboard, water skis, a towable tube, floating dock, floating hammock, floating couches and snorkel gear for twelve, meaning there is rarely a reason to sit still.

Guest reviews
Our family had an unforgettable week aboard Avanti. The yacht is beautiful, with spacious and comfortable accommodations, and the crew truly made the experience exceptional. Captain Mark, Julia, Chef Stephen, and First Mate Marissa were professional, welcoming, and went above and beyond to make every moment special. From outstanding meals to personalized service, everything was thoughtfully executed. We would happily charter Avanti again and highly recommend both the yacht and her fantastic crew for an unforgettable sailing vacation.
Every crew member made us feel welcomed, cared for, and completely at home on board.
Captain Mark is exceptional—he knows every inch and every bolt of the boat. Watching him navigate both the waters and the vessel itself is impressive; he moves across the decks and up and down the stairs effortlessly.
First Mate, Clay, is as skilled at mastering word games as he is at handling Andiamo, adding a touch of friendly competition and good humor always. Our stewardess, Julia, created a warm and inviting atmosphere and even shared a few German phrases upon request. What a gem! And Chef Stephen delighted us with his exceptional culinary creations, generously pairing his dishes with fitness tips and good conversation - in English or French!
Each crew member brought their own charm and professionalism, creating the perfect balance of engagement and privacy. It was an unforgettable experience — thank you all for making our family trip so special.
Oh, the scenery wasn’t bad either!

The crew was incredible - attentive, kind, and always a step ahead of what we might want. We ate better than on any other trip in my memory. Every meal was fresh, varied, and delicious, and the chef somehow managed to accommodate all our different preferences.
Between enjoying the open waters of the BVIs, lazy afternoons on the deck, being at the whim of a truly wonderful crew, and enjoying all that Avanti had to offer (especially the paddleboards), it felt like the perfect escape. We're already discussing when we can come back.
Thank you for everything!

Mark and the crew created an atmosphere that made the whole journey feel effortless and extraordinary. Sailing through the Grenadines was breathtaking on its own, but what truly elevated the experience was the care, attention, and joy the crew brought to every moment. Chef Stephen’s meals were beyond expectations — beautifully prepared and perfectly suited to our tastes. It was an experience I’ll carry with me always.
