About Luxury Crewed Catamaran ECLIPSE
ECLIPSE is a 2016 Lagoon 620 purpose-built for Caribbean cruising, offering the rare combination of genuine sailing performance and expansive living spaces. The catamaran's twin-hull design delivers both speed and stability, essential qualities when navigating the Leeward Islands' variable conditions.
Four en-suite staterooms accommodate eight guests in considered comfort. The main saloon and dual helm areas flow naturally to exterior spaces that reward both social gathering and solitary refuge. Captain Jim and Lisa bring two decades of combined experience navigating the US and British Virgin Islands, their previous commands including Renegade, Southern Comfort, and Obsession.
Deck design distinguishes ECLIPSE among production catamarans. The bow platform functions as a true outdoor living room, whilst the aft areas provide sheltered dining and bar zones. This spatial intelligence, paired with attentive crew service, elevates the charter beyond vessel rental into curated island experience.
Highlights
- •Four queen-bedded staterooms with en-suite heads and modern entertainment systems
- •Comprehensive water sports fleet including 15ft tender, towables, water-skis, paddleboards, snorkel equipment, and floating sun island
- •Dual helm stations and catamaran performance enable passage to three island groups within seven days

The Charter Experience
The Leeward Islands reward patient exploration. A week anchored off Tortola, Virgin Gorda, and St Thomas reveals why these waters attract discerning sailors. ECLIPSE's shallow draft accesses anchorages larger yachts cannot reach. The catamaran's speed means more islands within each day's reach without the fatigue of pushes through heavy seas. All-inclusive pricing removes operational complexity, allowing focus on whether your priority is snorkelling the caves at Norman Island, provisioning from Road Town's markets, or simply reading undisturbed whilst at anchor.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical week begins with charter pickup in Tortola, progressing through Norman Island's caves and wreck sites, then eastward to Virgin Gorda for the Baths anchorage. Days three and four reach the Windward Islands or St Thomas, returning westward through Jost Van Dyke before final overnight off Tortola. Weather and crew expertise shape daily routing; itineraries are suggestions, not prescriptions.
