Encore | All-Inclusive BVI Catamaran Charter

A 2026 Sunreef 60 sailing catamaran in the British Virgin Islands — four ensuite cabins for up to eight guests, fully crewed and all-inclusive.

Cabins: 4  ·  Length: 60 feet
Preferred pick-up: British Virgin Islands  ·  Flag: BVI
Rate: From $56,000/week (2 guests)
Fresh from the yard in 2026, Encore is among the newest Sunreef 60 catamarans in the British Virgin Islands fleet, combining the yard’s signature sleek profile with the latest systems, sails, and interior finishes. Her four ensuite queen cabins accommodate up to eight guests, while an open-plan salon and expansive deck spaces — foredeck sunpads, a shaded cockpit, and a flybridge lounge — offer plenty of room to relax underway or at anchor. Chartering throughout the BVI from a Tortola base, Encore is run by a professional crew of three: Captain LenĂ© Conradie, First Mate Herman Bester, and Chef Leanne Ho-Chung, who together deliver polished service, capable sailing, and an all-inclusive galley. For guests who want a nearly-new boat with top-tier kit and an attentive crew, Encore is a standout.

    “We had such an amazing time traveling the BVI onboard Encore. The boat is pristine, the food was delicious and plentiful, and the crew…top notch. I cannot think of a single thing that was missing! My favorite part was simply relaxing on the top deck, taking in the fresh air and scenery. The boat is stunning and so comfortable. But the best part is the crew, y’all are simply the best at what you do and it wouldn’t be the same without you.

    Thank you for putting up with our crazy antics. Thank you for taking us on those hikes that we huffed and puffed through, but wow, it was all so worth it. Thank you for all the cocktails and delicious food. We cannot wait to return!

    Enjoy the r…”

The boat is stunning & incredibly comfortable, the water sports were so much fun, and the pace and the itinerary were perfect. You couldn't ask for a better crew! They took care of every detail and truly made this trip magical! I had a blast, learned along the way, and ate some amazing food! I have such special memories that will stay with me for life. Thank you! Love Tiff”
