The Moorings Is Bringing New Monohulls to the Caribbean

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - June 3, 2016

The leading yacht charter company in the Caribbean, The Moorings, is bringing a group of all-new monohull models to the Caribbean for the winter season.

The company said the new Beneteau-built Moorings 48.4, designed by Berret-Racoupeau, will come to St Martin, St Lucia, Grenada and the British Virgin Islands.

The ultra-spacious sailboat has four en-suite cabins and room for up to 10 guests.

The air-conditioned interior includes light taupe cushioning and contemporary oak finishing.

On the outside, the boat features a convertible transom that drops down to become a swim platform.

It also features a 75hp Yanmar diesel engine and a Raymarine Navigation system.

The company also said it would be debuting a new 42.1 monohull in St Lucia and Grenada this December.

Also designed by Beneteau, the ship has room for up to six guests.

“I’m delighted that our extensive monohull range will be expanded further with the introduction of these two beautiful new Beneteau models,” says Josie Tucci, General Manager of The Moorings. “I know they will delight guests with their modern look, comfort aboard and great sailing performance. Plus with more of our popular 38′ and 45′ models arriving in the Caribbean this winter, get ready for some superb warm water sailing.”
