Spirit of the Wind - Beneteau 505

Spirit of the Wind was built in France and her designers carefully considered the need to produce a charter yacht that offered its guests a high level of comfort and space as well as superb sailing performance.

Her twin helms mean that you’re perfectly positioned to check the sails and hold your course, and her sleek lines help her glide through the water reaching some impressive speeds.

This elegant Beneteau 505 is comfortable at sail and stable at anchor. Sailing is a breeze with auto pilot, a GPS chart plotter and a wind and depth guage. For shore excursions there is a 10ft AB RIB.

Spirit of the Wind has a beautifully appointed teak interior which is both spacious and stylish.

The Staterooms

The four ensuite staterooms each have a queen sized bed and ensuite bathroom facilities. Each has an over-head hatch and side porthole which will ensure that you’ll sleep comfortably, cooled by the Caribbean breeze. There are also fans in each of the cabins.

Having worked on very large and well-known luxury charter yachts, Captain Christian understands the importance of providing high quality linens and towels for his guests.

The Galley

The galley is comprehensively kitted out with a Force 9 oven, ample refrigeration and storage space, and tasteful crocker

Inside Dining

On the rare occasions that you want to dine inside the boat, the spacious salon easily accommodates everyone around the varnished table.

Spirit of the Wind has a large cockpit area protected by a bimini. Dining al fresco is one of the under-stated pleasures when you charter a sailboat in the Caribbean.

The cockpit dining area will comfortably seat eight guests around the fold-away table. So unleash the chef in you and cook up a storm using the on-deck bbq and enjoy dining under the stars.

The ample lockers on-deck will provide you with sufficient storage for any special equipment, such as kitesurfing gear, you may wish to bring onboard.
   

There is a cooler on deck so a refreshing Piton (the local St Lucian beer) is never far from hand, and cockpit cushions to ensure you can relax in comfort.

Safety Equipment
Once onboard, your bags stowed away, and a cool drink in-hand, your captain will give you a comprehensive briefing to ensure your safety onboard.

Spirit of the Wind has eight lifejackets, GPS, flares and of course, an eight-man liferaft.

Toys
Snorkelling equipment is included on Spirit of the Wind. However, if you have an unusual footsize or a prescription mask, we recommend you bring your own equipment.

There is also a fishing rod for guests’ use but we ask you to respect local fishing laws.

We can arrange for the hire of kitesurfing equipment and kayaks (US$50 a week).
