Sailing Information about the yacht "Bon Bini"
           

The hard chine steel ketch Bon Bini has sailed around the world with me, it is sturdy and strong.

She is not a luxury yacht but has a lot of personality and is very cozy.

She's 12 m long by 3.90 m wide. Enough place for 4 guest, 2 double cabins and a captains bunk. Further more a roomy bath with toilet, shower on deck.
12 foot semi-rigid inflatable with 15 HP (Yamaha horsepower)

The equipment includes, 3 spear guns, fishing tackle, towline and 4 complete scuba diving equipments.

I am a PADI/CMAS scuba instructor as well. You will have the opportunity to get yourself certified as an open water diver in the crystal clear warm waters of the Caribbean or just join me on a fun dive. Certification up to dive master is possible on the "Bon Bin"

The guests on Bon Bini are integrated in the daily routine of sailing, which means everybody helps a little bit such as: sailing, anchoring, cooking or just chilling.

The price is: € 100 per day/per person

Included in the price are: the boat, the captain, diesel, food, non alcoholic drinks and snorkel gear.

The scuba diving is an extra €30 per dive. So are the alcoholic drinks and the dinners ashore, checking in and out of the Island (estimated cost €15 per person)

The season goes from November through to July/August (weather permitting)

SAILING ROUTE

The route planning depends on weather, wind, swell and also the people that we have onboard. As we know the area fairly well and I am a very experienced skipper, I will decide the routing, but I am open for suggestions as long as weather permits.

Welcome drink aboard the Bon Bini, try the local rum punch and dinner will be had in the
pizzaria directly on the beach with a fine view of all the boats at anchor.
