The Boat:
La Vie, is the perfect sized catamaran for a family or 2 couples or the perfect Honeymoon, she is not a huge superyacht but she is very roomy (and no head bumping or toes hanging over beds...)she is like new and much larger than a mono hull (a single hull boat). La Vie is very well equipped her Average Cruising speed is 8 knots, has 2x256 hp Yamar Diesel, AIS (a saftey device to see other boats -automatic identification system), Raymarine Chart Plotters (these help us plan where to go and are like a map), Generator (supplies the power)& plenty more electronics. The crew are happy to teach or show you all aspects of using the boat. On deck, a sailing vessel can be a bit like an obstacle course, with winches, lines, and other fun things to trip over so you need to be quite nimble and prepared for a few bumps here and there.

Each cabin is “boat sized”, like living in a mini apartment. We provide you with all your linens and towels for your stay, so you can leave room in your bag to shop for trinklets!
