We chartered a Catana from DYC and thought they were super. Small, well-run base, boat was in perfect condition.

Marie Galante and the Ile des Saintes are some of the best crusing in the Eastern Carib, throw in Dominica and you've got a REALLY nice charter. Distances are small, sailing is relatively easy.

Outstanding French supermarkets to provision with and excellent French and Creole restaurants means you won't lose any weight there. Fresh croissants and café au lait for breakfast everyday-yum! Numerous local rhum producers, well worth sampling, a pirate's dream.
