“Get Spellbound or Swept Away with the finest sailing in the turquoise waters of St. Maarten/St. Martin!”
The fun-loving, attentive and experienced crew promises an amazing day aboard their 45′ or 61′ catamarans.
Ian and his son Jake, the owners, and captains with a lifetime of experience sailing and yacht racing. In fact, Ian once held the record for fastest crossing from the UK to the USA, but his trips these days are more chill, with good vibes and high spirits, top-shelf spirits to be exact.
Spellbound, a 45′ catamaran offers all-inclusive scheduled full-day tours as well as half-day and full-day private charters. The best-selling trip is the full day “Around the Island Tour” in which you will spend a glorious day sailing around the entire island and experience some of the finest sailing, swimming, and snorkeling in St. Maarten/St Martin.


If you have limited time a half-day private sailing charter is the ultimate way to see the island. With no set schedule and the freedom to choose the itinerary, you can be as active or as relaxed as you like. Making it a perfect option for cruise-ship passengers.
Spellbound has a large net in front for relaxing and tanning and a shady area at the back with comfortable seating. There is a nice interior with a salon, galley, and two bathrooms. Snorkeling equipment, swimming noodles, paddleboard, and a fishing rod for trolling are included.
All tours include an open bar, soda, and water all day. The full-day trip offers a delicious homemade cooked onboard BBQ chicken and ribs with pasta and green salads. The half-day trip includes sandwiches.
