Sea Chateau is a Voyage 50 Mayotte Catamaran. It was especially designed by famed Naval Architect Alexander Simonis for fast, comfortable, luxury charters. Its extra wide beam offers outstanding stability, safety and exceptional space in its four staterooms with queen beds and en suite heads, huge saloon, cockpit and decks. The beautiful gourmet upper level galley shares its large panoramic-view windows with the saloon and bar that form an exceptional airy and bright integrated entertainment area, where you, your family and friends will enjoy the vacation of a life time. And when it comes to having fun in the water, the large teak aft deck, and the two “sugar scoop” swim platforms with large s/s ladders and handrails make it extremely easy and safe for everyone to get in and out of the water and take part in all the fun. It also makes getting in and out of the dinghy a breeze. No stress, no worries, all fun and enjoyment.
Yow will swim in crystalline turquoise waters. You will snorkel into ancient caves and sunken pirate ships. You will sail to a different paradisiacal island every day. You will catch your trophy fish. You will take in the tropical sun through every pore of your body. You will enjoy delicious tropical drinks and gourmet meals. You will feel the warm and gentle trade winds combing through your hair. You will walk carelessly on miles of the most beautiful white sandy beaches. You will sleep under the stars. You will share and bond with family and friends like never before. You will sing, you will dance, you will laugh and you will play. But above all you will have the time of your life. On “Sea Chateau” it’s all about you and your enjoyment.

With their charm, experience and passion for excellence, they will make your sailing vacation in the Caribbean the experience of a life time. Maribel was born in Caracas, Venezuela; the daughter of Spanish immigrants from the Canary Islands and Carlos was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan and grew up in Rockville, Maryland. Carlos comes from a background in materials engineering, acoustics and noise control and Maribel was a professional Architect. After enjoying successful careers and marrying 26 years ago, they hung their diplomas, sold all their land possessions, purchased their first sailboat and embarked on the voyage of pursuing their dream of life on the ocean. Since then they have operated many private and charter yachts, from small sailing sloops to 120 ft. mega yachts and have sailed thousands of miles through the waters of the Caribbean, the Bahamas, the Atlantic coast of the United States, the Mediterranean and even the Orinoco River. They are both fluent in English, Spanish, Italian, and conversational in Portuguese. Carlos holds an International Master of Yachts 200 ton Ocean license and is also trained in Marine Fire Fighting, Diesel Mechanics and First Aid. His hobbies range from being an avid sport fisherman to a passionate photographer and a classic rock and jazz music enthusiast. Maribel is a professionally trained Chef, graduated from the Gaga Culinary Institute under the guidance of French Master Chef Laureant Cantineaux and is also trained in Silver Service. The three years spent in Tuscany, Italy while supervising the construction of a Benetti 120 ft. mega yacht and their recent travels to Sicily and Sardinia, have given Maribel the opportunity of learning the traditional Italian cooking techniques, native ingredients and well kept family secrets, all of which complement her Spanish and Latin/Caribbean heritage to provide you with an exciting, delicious and beautifully presented culinary experience in every meal. Maribel’s hobbies range from handcrafts and painting to water skiing and learning languages. After a life time sailing the oceans of the world Carlos and Maribel have finally decided to come back to their backyard and favorite playground: the British Virgin Islands.
