Luxury Crewed Catamaran OCEANS 8

OCEANS 8 is a Lagoon 46 crewed catamaran offering effortless island exploration across the Virgin Islands. Her hull design and twin-hull stability make her ideal for the crystalline waters between St Thomas, St John, and St Croix, while the layout comfortably accommodates six guests across three queen cabins. Built in 2021, she combines contemporary comfort with the proven seaworthiness the Lagoon name delivers.

Captain Shawn Henderson and Chef Julian Ayala form the operational core of your charter. Shawn's background spans yacht ownership, island guiding, and years of water-based hospitality; Julian brings culinary expertise and full USCG credentials (100 GRT Master's License, STCW, ENG1), having previously operated as captain and chef aboard a 50-foot sailing catamaran in these same waters. Together they anticipate guest needs with the understated professionalism that defines seamless weeks afloat.

The galley experience reflects Julian's philosophy of fresh ingredients and vibrant flavors drawn from seafood, island staples, Texas-inspired cooking, and handcrafted cocktails. Meals unfold naturally, whether at anchor after a morning swim or as evening light softens across calm water. Shawn's attentiveness to comfort ensures every detail, from provisioning to timing, feels intuitive rather than orchestrated.

Your week unfolds at the pace you choose across the British Virgin Islands and US Virgin Islands. Mornings might begin at quiet anchorages with coffee and clear water; afternoons invite swimming, snorkeling, or coastal exploration. The itinerary shapes itself around your preferences, with the crew coordinating logistics so you remain entirely present. Evenings anchor themselves in conversation, good food, and the unhurried rhythms that define genuine escape. Whether you favour water-based adventure, culinary focus, or simply stillness, the Lagoon 46's capability and the crew's experience accommodate your vision without fuss.
