About Crewed Catamaran TRANQUILA

TRANQUILA is a Fountaine Pajot Samana 59 catamaran built in 2024, offering four queen cabins and generous deck space across the British Virgin Islands. Her dual-hull design provides stability and comfort whilst her modern interiors balance natural light with understated luxury. The generous foredeck lounge and aft dining area frame views of Norman Island, Anegada, and Jost Van Dyke, whilst the flybridge offers an intimate vantage point for sunsets and stargazing.

Captain Matteo Dalla Bona and Chef Francesca Stocco bring RYA/MCA Yachtmaster credentials and blue-water experience spanning thousands of nautical miles. Francesca trained at the Ashburton Chefs Academy and crafts Mediterranean, Caribbean, and globally inspired cuisine onboard. Both fluent in English, Spanish, French, and Italian, they create a warm, multilingual atmosphere. Their story began with a spontaneous Atlantic crossing and has anchored them in the BVI, where they now live aboard full-time.

Below deck, four ensuite queen cabins provide quiet retreats, whilst the saloon and dining area serve as the social heart of the yacht. Water toys including a 60 HP dinghy enable exploration of coral gardens and lagoons around Virgin Gorda, and the crew readily organises snorkelling, water sports, sunset cocktails, and evening entertainment tailored to your preferences.

Highlights

  • Four queen cabins accommodating eight guests, each with private ensuite
  • Chef-led Mediterranean and Caribbean cuisine, tailored to dietary preferences
  • Crewed by professional captain and chef with extensive BVI knowledge
  • Water toys and organised excursions to coral reefs, lagoons, and remote anchorages

The Charter Experience

Your week unfolds at your rhythm across the Leeward Islands and Virgin Islands. Begin in Tortola and discover calm anchorages at Virgin Gorda, the open waters surrounding Anegada, and hidden bays where Matteo and Francesca handle navigation, provisioning, and daily details. Evenings bring fresh seafood dinners on the aft deck, whilst days blend action-packed water sports with unhurried hours under warm skies. The crew's intimate knowledge of these islands ensures every anchorage, snorkel site, and local discovery feels curated rather than crowded.

Suggested Itinerary

A typical week might anchor near Norman Island's Willy T for snorkelling, progress to the calm bays of Virgin Gorda, venture to Anegada's shallow reefs and local seafood restaurants, and finish near Jost Van Dyke watching twilight from the flybridge. Matteo and Francesca adjust waypoints based on weather, your interests, and their insider recommendations, ensuring the itinerary feels personal rather than prescriptive.
