Description

This is a 65’ Catamaran in Palm Beach, FLA (winter season) and Newport, RI (summer season). This is a USCG-inspected vessel for up to 42 guests. This is perfect for hosting large parties and never-ending fun on its spacious topside, a centralized cockpit, two large trampolines, and multiple bean bags for lounging and sunning.

We are happy to put the anchor down for swimming, paddle boarding, and lounging on the Lilypad. This is the perfect mix of luxury, sailing, and relaxation. This was originally built for a family to sail around the world. Her interior is comfortable, safe, cool, and shaded, with room to sit on the couch. The beauty of sailing on a catamaran is it’s completely stable. The captain can easily put the boat in irons (keep her at a standstill) to allow for more comfortable maneuverability when needed for all guests.

What we have aboard: The Captain and crew provide all the necessary accommodations for a comfortable cruise: Signature Rum Punch, ice, water, serving ware, drinkware, and blankets for chilly sunset sails. We also have plenty of cooler space and can keep food warm. If guests bring provisions and libations, the captain and crew will plate and serve them throughout the charter. There is a bathroom (Head), and private areas are available for changing. We have music and the ability to connect devices to our system.

What guests should bring: Guests should bring provisions (food), additional drinks (no red wine), towels, (non-spray) sunscreen, and other personal items needed throughout the charter. We will offer recommendations for local caterers and stores to pick up provisions.

Meet First Mate "Tola" - she is a Coconut Retriever from the British Virgin Islands. Tola was born on a catamaran (literally) and has her sea legs. She has excellent instincts on board during charters - she is a smart girl and knows when guests would like to have her company, but most times, she is below deck with her lambie. Julia Burns - Heron Yacht Manager Julia has been the Yacht Manager for Heron since 2018. With 30 years of boating experience, she manages bookings, haul-outs, guest requests, and USCG inspections.

FAQs

What type of yacht should I charter?
No matter what type of yacht you choose to charter, we know that you will have a fantastic time on the water. If you are more about the journey, and want a relaxing time aboard, then choose from one of the many sailboats on the platform. If you are more about the destination, and going fast, check out the powerboats on Sailo. For an exclusive experience, Sailo recommends chartering a luxurious yacht for the day. Finally, Sailo has access to many event boats as well for group outings from 50 - 1,000 guests. If you are still unsure, then just ask! Read more
What should I bring?
Bring yourself, and some comfortable clothes suitable to the season you are going to be out on the water. Please keep in mind that it is often 10 degrees cooler out on the water, so a jacket or windbreaker is never a bad idea. We also recommend bringing a hat, sunscreen, and sunglasses, as well as a swimsuit if appropriate for your charter location. Please coordinate with your captain regarding any food or drinks that you wish to bring aboard. For term-charters, Sailo recommends using soft-sided luggage, and keeping it simple. Read more
How long does a rental last?
The basic daily rental is structured as either a quarter-, half-, or full-day. A quarter-day is two hours, a half-day is four hours, and a full-day is eight hours. You can also discuss a custom trip with the boat by contacting the owner through Sailo. Most term charters (weekly rentals) are from Saturday to Saturday. Keep in mind that the boat generally needs to be back at the dock by Friday evening, and you will need to be off the boat on Saturday morning so they can prepare the boat for the next guests.
