About Bareboat Catamaran MANWE
MANWE is a Catana Bali 4.3 catamaran, purpose-built for bareboat charter in French Polynesia. Her dual-hull design delivers the stability and shallow draft essential for navigating Tahiti's intricate lagoon systems, whilst her 2020 build ensures modern systems throughout. The catamaran accommodates up to ten guests across four cabins, each with en-suite facilities and natural light.
The layout maximises living space through an open-plan design. A tilting door system merges the aft cockpit with the saloon, creating flexible indoor-outdoor flow. Above, the flybridge serves as the primary vantage point for observing reef formations and island anchorages. Below deck, the galley is fully equipped for self-catering, and the saloon functions as both dining hub and social gathering space.

- •Spacious flybridge and aft cockpit optimised for tropical cruising
- •Modern systems include air conditioning, generator, watermaker, solar panels, and navigation electronics
- •Stability and shallow draught suited to Polynesian lagoons and reef environments
The Charter Experience
Bareboat charter from Raiatea grants access to Tahiti's Society Islands in seven-day cycles. Navigate between Bora Bora, Huahine, and Taha'a, anchoring in protected lagoons and exploring coral ecosystems. The catamaran's water toys (kayaks, paddle boards, fishing equipment available for hire) extend your engagement with the South Pacific's marine environment. A professional skipper may join if you lack bareboat credentials, occupying one cabin and requiring meal provision during your charter week.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical seven-day itinerary from Raiatea explores the Society Islands cluster. Sail to Taha'a for anchorage in sheltered bays, then northbound to Bora Bora's lagoon system. Day three might pivot eastward to Huahine's cultural sites and fringing reefs. Return days allow leisurely navigation and waterside exploration before concluding in Raiatea. Wind patterns and swell favour May through September for predictable conditions.
