Grace I Power Catamaran

Four cabins – a king and three queens – make up the sleeping layout of Grace I. She is a 54ft (16m) power catamaran built by Aquila in 2022.

Comfort under way

She holds 12 knots as a cruise and 16 at maximum, and air conditioning runs through the interior, so it stays cool below.

On deck

A swim platform sits low to the water, giving the group a flat step into the sea and an unfussy way back aboard.

Water toys

Three toys travel with her: two Seabobs, which two of the party can take out at the same time, a paddleboard, and snorkelling gear.

Where she cruises

Tortola is her home port, and Grace I stays within the British Virgin Islands, working them year round, with January, February, March and December the months she is busiest.

Accommodation and crew

Eight guests sleep aboard and twelve can be on board by day, so the daytime party can be larger than the group that stays the night, and three crew run her.

Charter notes

Grace I answers to a family or a group of friends who want their days spent in and out of the water, and she is offered on a three-day charter as well, a short hire for a group with only a few days to spend.
