Who JEWEL suits
JEWEL is a 20.4 m Fountaine Pajot sailing catamaran built in 2023, ideally matched to families or groups of friends seeking an effortless holiday under sail. With four cabins accommodating eight guests, and looked after by a crew of three, she provides balanced space for shared socialising and quiet retreat. Those who appreciate active days on the water will enjoy her kayaks and paddleboards, while the gym and outdoor shower add ease to the routine.
Among comparable yachts cruising the Leeward Islands, JEWEL aligns closely across every measure. She shares the same guest capacity as alternatives in the area, taking eight guests across her cabins. Her length of 20.4 m sits close to the typical fleet standard, while her build year is similar to surrounding multihulls. Cruising enthusiasts will also find her weekly rate sits at a similar level to comparable sailing options nearby.
The best time to step aboard JEWEL spans multiple cruising periods, as she sails the Caribbean and the Leeward Islands in winter 2026 and summer 2027. For winter 2026, January, February and March deliver steady trade winds and warm sunshine. Alternatively, embarking during summer 2027 allows guests to experience the Leeward Islands across June, July and August with quiet anchorages across the Caribbean.

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.
