Catamaran BlueWinds is a 2014, 56' Lagoon catamaran offering crewed yacht charters in the BVI and USVI. She features a fly-bridge deck, on-board scuba diving and accommodations for up to 8 guests in 1 Master Queen Suite, 2 Queen cabins, plus an upper/lower Twin cabin. The crew is willing to move cabins for an additional fee. Catamaran BlueWinds is a Carefree Yacht Charters affordable pick for families, couples, divers, foodies or special occasions.

Here's what Captain Josh & Chef Megan (Bean) told us about their fun-factor aboard BlueWinds:: "We LOVE people. Both of us enjoy good chats and often find groups with "good banter" the best. Groups who can joke and laugh with each other and catch our sense of humour will definitely spark the fun within us. We also both enjoy all sorts of games and encourage week long tournaments, and interactive games like "kill the captain". We're both very adventurous and will encourage people to go the extra mile, with our guiding hands, in terms of snorkelling, paddle boarding and water adventures where we find guests partaking in activities they wouldn't ordinarily do. This encourages memorable holidays and deep bonds between everyone on board."

Rates from $31,000 to $38,000. View availability, rate details and current Special Offer.

What Our Carefree Clients Said

A repeat client and 2 family group that we booked aboard 56' Catamaran BlueWinds (previously called Playtime) in November 2021 said: Hi Lynne, We had a wonderful time on the charter. After postponing our trip for a year and a half, we were over-due for a real vacation with the family. The boat was spectacular and Paul & Ashley were great.We are already thinking about our next charter in 2023 and we hope to be able to reconnect with Paul when that time comes. Playtime and connecting with nature left all of us wanting more. Thank you again, Kim A., New Jersey

Reviews from our Carefree Clients

A repeat client and family that we booked aboard BlueWinds in March 2023 said:

My family and I enjoyed a fantastic charter in the BVIs a few years back on the same boat which we believed could never be topped. We were wrong. Our family experience on BlueWinds went well above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. Not only was the refit on the boat incredibly well done and the food incredible - but it was Josh and Bean that made all the difference. They became part of the family as they introduced us to new places, set up rope swings for the kids, taught us how to play Kill the Captain, and even taught our girls how to play ukulele. We could not have been more happy with the week and are so much looking forward to the next time!

Thanks,

Danny A., MA
