A note from your charter specialist
PARADIGM SHIFT is one of those rare yachts that feels different the moment you step aboard. With space for 6 guests, she works equally well for a multi-generational family week or a tighter group of friends who want every cabin to feel like a suite. In Caribbean especially, the itinerary options around her are exceptional — and the crew know every anchorage worth the detour.
