Who ATLAS suits
ATLAS is a 16.8 m sailing catamaran designed for those seeking a balance of comfort and adventure. With 5 cabins and space for 8 guests, she is well-suited for families or small groups looking for a relaxed time on the water. The onboard experience is supported by a crew of 2, who manage the vessel while guests enjoy amenities such as the outdoor shower and indoor audio system. For those who prefer to stay active during the day, she carries paddleboards and a wakeboard, providing straightforward options for exploring the coast.
When considering her specifications, ATLAS sits close to the typical length for comparable yachts in the Leeward Islands. She accommodates the same guest count as the alternatives in her class, ensuring a familiar level of intimacy on board. Her build year is similar to other yachts in this category, and she maintains a weekly rate that remains similar to her peers. She provides a consistent experience that aligns with the expectations for a yacht of her type operating in the region.
The best time to experience ATLAS in the Caribbean and the Leeward Islands is between December and April, when the trade winds are reliable and the weather is pleasant. While she is listed for the Caribbean and the Leeward Islands throughout the year, chartering during these months provides the most stable conditions. May is a viable option for those preferring lighter breezes and a quieter experience on the water before the peak of the hurricane season.

Cruising the Leeward Islands: when to go and where to anchor
Best time
The primary charter season runs from December to April, marked by reliable north-easterly trade winds of 15 to 25 knots and minimal rainfall. Peak demand occurs during the festive period and regatta weeks. May brings lighter breezes and fewer yachts, while the official Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, during which charter operations are significantly reduced.
Practical tips
- Fly into St Maarten (SXM) or Antigua (ANU); Simpson Bay marinas are 5–15 minutes from SXM, while English Harbour and Falmouth are 30–40 minutes from ANU.
- Cruising between island nations requires clearing customs and immigration at designated ports of entry, with passports and ship documents presented by the yacht captain.
- Provisioning is most extensive on St Maarten and Antigua, which have large supermarkets near key marinas, whereas smaller outlying islands have more restricted inventory.
Anchorages to know
- Anse de Colombier, St BartsA sheltered, uninhabited bay within the nature reserve featuring mooring buoys, clear water, and walking tracks to the headland.
- English Harbour, AntiguaA deeply indented, historic harbour offering landlocked shelter, designated anchorages, and direct access to restored naval facilities.
- Green Island, AntiguaAn uninhabited island protected by an outer barrier reef, providing calm waters for tender use and water sports.
- Simpson Bay, St MaartenA broad roadstead anchorage and sheltered lagoon entrance providing well-protected holding and quick access to coastal services.
