Come aboard your Leopard 45, a catamaran of almost 14 metres long and 7 metres wide. This boat is a clever mix of performance under sail and pleasure at sea. Thanks to its skylight, the saloon and its equipped kitchen are extremely bright. They invite you to share a convivial moment around a cocktail. The cockpit offers a panoramic view ideal for admiring the islands while sailing. You can sit comfortably on the benches located at the front to enjoy the speed or sunbathe. The aft skirts and their bathing ladders will allow you to go swimming in complete safety.


Please note: Your cruise can take place aboard a Leopard 50 or a Leopard 58 if the Leopard 45 is not available.

Frequently asked questions

• What documents do I need in order to travel to the British Virgin Islands?

  A visa is not required for tourists visiting the BVIs. However it is important to make sure that you have a valid passport which is valid for at least 6 months after your return date from the BVIs. You will also need to present a return ticket.

• Is everyone on board English-speaking?

  Please note that this cruise is not exclusive to English travelers. It is quite common to meet people of various nationalities on board as we offer cruises to international clientele - encouraging curious and enriching exchanges for both passengers and crew.
  Crew members are multilingual and qualified to offer a multilingual service.

• What does a skipper do? And what about a hostess?

  All the skippers which we offer are qualified, have the necessary professional licenses and speak fluent English. If you have any particular demands regarding a skipper make sure to let us know.
  The skipper is in charge of navigation and your safety on board. Feel free to try out some of the manoeuvres with him; he will be happy to teach you the basics of sailing.
  Regarding sleeping arrangements, the skipper will sleep on board, either in a cabin or in the common area (saloon).
  The skipper is not in charge of cooking or washing up. A hostess (or cook) will prepare your meals, clean the saloon area and the cabins and make sure the boat is kept tidy.

• Who arranges the flights to the British Virgin Islands?

  Your flight tickets can be booked by the GlobeSailor team. Simply specify this to your consultant when booking your cruise.

• Does the boat operate only with the sails?

  It depends on the weather. When the winds are strong, the skipper will use the sails to sail silently. On days with calmer winds or to reach the stopovers on schedule, the skipper may need to use the engine. The engine is also used when entering and leaving the marinas. We cannot guarantee a minimum time of using the sails. The skipper will do their best to use the sails as much as possible and involve passengers in manoeuvres.

• How are meals on board organised?

  During your cruise, you benefit from the full board package, including breakfasts, lunches and dinners per day. Softs and alcoholic beverages are also included (depending on availability). Please check the terms and conditions of your quotation. Your advisor will be able to send you the menus proposed on board on request. They are often prepared using fresh local produce. Please inform us as soon as possible if you are allergic to certain foods or if you are on a special diet.

• What is the currency used?

  Although this is a British territory, the currency is the US dollar.
  1 Euro = about $1.09.
  Most international credit cards are accepted, except on Anagada Island, where it is safer to carry cash. There are ATM machines near banks.
  We advise you to bring US dollars with you before boarding the catamaran.

• What payments must I make in order to confirm my booking?

  To confirm your booking you should inform your GlobeSailor advisor who will put an option (hold) on the cabin for a certain time until we receive your down payment.
  
  The booking will only be considered final once we have received your down payment (by bank transfer, Paypal or credit card) which is 50% of the total amount. A 100% down payment is required for any booking made less than one month before departure.
  
  The balance should be paid no later than one month before boarding, either to the base or to GlobeSailor. Mandatory extras and options will be payable locally. Be sure to check with your advisor or the base prior to departure.

• What happens if I need to cancel my cruise?

  If you wish to make a cancellation, you should contact your GlobeSailor advisor as soon as possible. Whatever the circumstances, you will be charged the following cancellation fees, depending on when the cancellation is made: up to 90 days before departure = 30%; 89 to 60 days before departure = 50%; 59 to 30 days before departure = 75%; 29 days or less before departure = 100% of the total cost of your booking.
