About Crewed Sailing Catamaran REACH
REACH is a 2022 Leopard 50 crewed sailing catamaran offering refined Caribbean cruising across the British Virgin Islands and US Virgin Islands. Built for stability and efficiency, this modern catamaran combines purposeful design with environmental responsibility, hosting up to 6 guests across 3 queen cabins, each with ensuite facilities.
The yacht's living spaces blend contemporary interiors with warm wooden accents, creating an inviting atmosphere. The saloon and galley are lined with glass windows flooding the interior with natural light, while the main alfresco dining area at the stern provides the ideal setting for chef-prepared meals at sunset. A bow lounge offers forward-facing vistas, and the expansive flybridge delivers panoramic views of island highlights with generous seating for social gatherings.
Your experience is helmed by Captain James Minkley, whose South African heritage and hands-on sailing philosophy shape each charter into a seamless blend of adventure and comfort. Chef Nicola, originally from Cape Town, crafts personalised menus using fresh, vibrant ingredients, bringing both culinary expertise and genuine hospitality to every meal.
