About Crewed Catamaran SERENITY
SERENITY is a Morrelli Mel 50 catamaran completed in 2023, designed for discerning charterers seeking privacy without sacrifice. Her twin-hull design delivers stability whilst her dual engine and sail system grants flexibility to explore hidden anchorages or push between islands. Two queen cabins with ensuite facilities accommodate two couples in contemporary comfort, whilst the saloon's floor-to-ceiling glazing floods the interior with natural light and unobstructed views.
The yacht's open-air spaces define the experience. Her foredeck twin trampolines invite quiet mornings, whilst the flybridge's cushioned seating becomes your evening vantage point as the sun sets across the Leeward Islands. The fully-equipped galley allows your included crew to prepare authentic Caribbean fare, though the galley itself is equally suited to guests who wish to cook. A generous swim platform and water toy collection (dinghy, snorkel gear, fishing equipment, beach games) enable spontaneous exploration of cays and reefs without delay.
Captain John Applegate commands SERENITY with the knowledge of a local operator. The crewed arrangement means navigation, provisioning, and vessel logistics remain seamless, leaving you free to pursue your charter's rhythm. Your charter fee covers the captain, crew provisions, water, propane, and all water toys. Food, premium beverages, fuel, permits, and gratuities are additional.

The Charter Experience
Seven days in the Virgin Islands and Leeward Islands unfolds without rigid structure. Depart St. Thomas and drift eastward through Sir Francis Drake Channel toward the Baths or Jost Van Dyke, or westward to the Coral World sites. Morning swims over coral heads, afternoon lunch at a beach bar accessible by dinghy, and evenings anchored in settled waters under star-filled skies define the rhythm. SERENITY's shallow draft permits entry to lagoons unavailable to larger yachts, whilst her flybridge ensures everyone aboard enjoys the passage in comfort.
Suggested Itinerary
A sample seven-day itinerary might begin with departure from St. Thomas, passage through the Sir Francis Drake Channel to the Baths at Virgin Gorda (snorkel the iconic rock formations), westward to Jost Van Dyke for beach clubs and fresh conch salad, then southward to Cooper Island or Salt Island to explore wreck sites and pristine anchorages. The final days allow return via the US Virgin Islands or detours to Guana Island and Scrub Island, dictated entirely by weather and your party's mood.
