About BERESHIT

Best for: groups of friends seeking a Caribbean sailing adventure, with couples sharing a catamaran a close second.

Bereshit is a 2023 Leopard catamaran sailing the US Virgin Islands, crewed by a captain with over 20,000 nautical miles under his belt and a professionally trained chef whose resume spans five-star hotels and high-end restaurants across Europe. That pairing of serious seamanship and serious cooking is the defining feature of this boat.

Four en-suite cabins with double beds sleep eight guests comfortably, making her a strong fit for a group of friends or two couples travelling together. Captain Pablo Gomez Gonzalez brings precise route planning, deep local knowledge of Caribbean waters, and a calm confidence built across two Atlantic crossings. Chef Aritz Ballesteros brings a genuine fine-dining pedigree, including time at the five-star Conservatorium Hotel in Amsterdam, now adapted to open-air Caribbean cooking with a particular passion for the barbecue. Guests eat well, sleep well, and sail in safe hands on a boat that is barely two years old.

BERESHIT guest review

The best of times are had at sailing the sea and this boat is the one you want.
Pablo and Artiz were great and blended perfectly with my family. They were always on point and delivered everything anyone could ever want. They were super with everyone in my family and my 3yr old daughter loved them both. Food and a clean cabin was always available and they became great friends and honestly I was sad to part ways at the end of the trip. Can't wait to sail with them again in the future. The boat was amazing and the trip was too, l've been around the world and have had many trips, you can't go wrong with the Bereshit crew!!!!!!

They Were Super With Everyone!June 2026

Our sailing experience around Mallorca on the Leopard 50 ‘Bereshit’ was nothing short of magical - from the breathtaking beaches and luxurious comfort to the exceptional crew, every moment was a five-star adventure we’ll cherish forever!

Good to know

We want to make sure you are well prepared and informed for your trip. Here are a few things you might want to know before you set off.
An APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) is an amount paid to the yacht before your charter. It's a fund to cover expenses such as food & drink eaten on board, fuel and mooring fees. At the end of your charter, you’ll receive a detailed document showing how the APA was spent, and any remaining balance will be refunded to you. if in doubt about what is included, ask your HELM broker.
The Captain will let you know if you're about to overspend and discuss your next steps, which wil generally be a bank transfer to top up the funds.
We recommend (10-15% for the Med) (15-20% for the Caribbean/Bahamas) of your charter fee, which will be split evenly among the crew (it's a nice touch to bring a blank envelope or a thank you card in advance).
We'll share your Captain's details with you a few weeks before your charter. We can set up a group chat with your group and the captain to discuss plans before you go.
