About ARAOK
Best for: groups of friends or couples travelling together, with families of up to six a close second.
ARAOK is a 2018 Fountaine Pajot catamaran sailing Italy with a fully French crew of three, and that crew is the single strongest reason to book her. Captain Baptiste Le Risbé brings Atlantic crossings, offshore deliveries, and years of charter command to the helm. Christelle Vannier leads the galley with over two decades in the yachting industry, and stewardess Pauline Legrand Garcia spans deck, interior, and provisioning duties, having combined chef and hostess roles in French Polynesia. Eight charter reviews confirm she runs well and guests come back happy.
Three cabins sleep up to six guests comfortably, making her a natural fit for two or three couples or a small family. On the water, the 4.20m Highfield tender with a 50 HP engine opens up coastline that larger boats cannot reach, and is sufficient for wakeboarding. Two SUPs, a kayak, a donut, snorkelling gear, and fishing equipment mean there is always something to do when the anchor drops. The wide catamaran platform gives everyone space to spread out, whether that is at the bow nets, in the cockpit, or around Christelle's table.

We have enjoyed our week of ultimate paradise in St Martin, St Barths and Anguilla! Thank you for showing our family the beautiful islands, beaches and the sea. We enjoyed the delicious food as well! Thank you as our memories from Christmas 2022 will be filled with great memories. As we head back to South Carolina, we will be thinking of our fond memories on the ARAOK!
Thank you so much for caring for us during our charter in the British Virgin Islands. ARAOK took us to many beautiful places, and on our journey, we made many discoveries. Stingrays, tarpon, squid, and of course some delicious lobster. We loved the beaches in Anegada and the many safe harbours we anchored for the night. Thank you especially for the special service you gave to us and our young children. I can only begin to wonder how they have absorbed all of the sights, sounds and tastes they have had the privilege to enjoy. Every need our ours was anticipated and delivered expertly ad swiftly. It has to be said that “chef” excelled himself. Together with Mimi, serving exquisite food to everyone’s delight. Vive ARAOK!
