Luxury, comfort, ambiance, grace and style. These are the hallmarks of Zingara, a 2006 Silhouette 76 catamaran, featuring five guest suites, each with plasma TV / DVD and PlayStation. A professional crew of four completes the chemistry to create the perfect platform for a luxury sailing adventure, with all the creature comforts.
The master suite is situated on the bridge deck and offers guests a panoramic view forward across the bows and features a large Jacuzzi tub. Zingara also features two aft queen-berth suites. The midships suite can convert from a queen to twin beds. One forward queen completes the five en-suite guest cabins.
Zingara's spacious flybridge provides a great area to both sail and to enjoy the action. A Jacuzzi tub affords guests an opportunity to soak and sail. The saloon is airy and bright. A large plasma TV with surround sound, PlayStation and DVD/ CD adds to the amenities.
Dine in the formal indoor dining area, or enjoy an al fresco dinner on the shaded aft deck. Zingara features a large, professional quality galley.
Zingara's sail-plan provides ample power to get her up to an excellent pace through the waters of the Caribbean.

The crew were absolutely excellent in every single aspect of the trip! Rich and Lisa’s commitment to our enjoyment, experience and safety was awesome. Nothing was too much trouble; they gave us a 5 star experience of the highest standard, from the moment we arrived to the second that we left.
Zingara was in fantastic condition. Spotlessly clean and equipped to the highest standard and extremely comfortable. Our favorite aspect was hanging out on the top deck during afternoon sails and again with after dinner drinks.
The quality of the food and variance of the menu, was the biggest single surprise of the trip. We are a well-travelled group and the food was among the best we have ever had! Rich is truly an excellent chef, wonderfully supported by Lisa. The cuisine was amazing!
Could not have asked for more from the BVIs - stunning!
We would use you guys again without hesitation and Rich and Lisa would be our absolute preference to stay with again. They made the trip!
As you can tell from our comments we were hoping for the trip of a life time to celebrate my wife Dee’s 50th birthday and the trip exceeded every single expectation we had! Our group has literally travelled the world and the consensus of opinion was this was the best trip any of us had ever done. We will remember the trip for a very long time.
