Serendipity Description
This Sunreef 62 catamaran boasts an elegant grey hull that complements its expansive living quarters, summing up to a lavish 2,422 square feet. This luxury sailing vessel, known as Serendipity, showcases a design aesthetic that leans more towards sleek, urban chic than traditional nautical themes. The flybridge is a highlight, outfitted with a sophisticated wet bar and a state-of-the-art BBQ grill, perfect for entertaining under the open sky. The three main cabins each offer an en suite bathroom and are furnished with queen-sized beds, ensuring comfort and privacy for all guests. Serendipity finds its home port in Georgetown, Great Exuma, Bahamas, yet exhibits a spirit of adventure and flexibility by offering complimentary repositioning for seven-day charters to either Nassau or Staniel Cay at no extra charge. Tailored to accommodate families, this vessel features a special fourth guest cabin designed specifically for children, equipped with a cozy bunk bed to accommodate two small passengers. Although this cabin doesn´t include a private bathroom, it adds a unique touch to family voyages. With this additional child-friendly sleeping arrangement, Serendipity can comfortably host up to eight guests for a memorable journey through the serene waters of the Bahamas.

Captain
Chef/First Mate
<b>Captain Carl Welte</b>
As a dedicated Yacht Captain with over 25 years in the maritime industry, I´ve honed my skills in operational oversight for both regular and charter voyages. My expertise spans across various aspects of yacht and cruise leadership, including team leadership, stakeholder relations, ship maintenance, and safety protocols. My commitment to excellence has allowed me to consistently exceed expectations, fostering valuable relationships across all levels of an organization. Currently, I´m upgrading my credentials to a 100-ton license and aim to further progress to a 200-ton license, underscoring my ambition to lead larger vessels.
Outside of professional realms, I´m deeply passionate about the sea, enjoying in-shore and offshore angling, spearfishing, pole fishing, and advanced P.A.D.I. scuba diving. These personal pursuits enhance my understanding and appreciation of the marine environment, further enriching my maritime career. My goal is to merge my extensive professional experience with my personal passions, contributing to meaningful and safe sea voyages for all involved.
<b>Chef/First Mate Laura DeRonde</b>
Laura grew up sailing....on much smaller boats ; )
She later found her way to culinary school and perfected creating special meals and food memories. Working on yachts is her way to marry those two passions. She specializes in broad-spectrum Mediterranean flavors and fresh seafood, but has also trained in Mexico and Thailand, so culinary adventures are always on the menu. Be sure to ask about any special requests.
In her free time, Laura is an avid traveler, explorer and scuba diver and she looks forward to making your time on board delicious and fun!

ARRIVAL/DEPARTURE TIMES
Yacht offers a 3pm arrival and departure option.
From Nassau especially, the later start works well for a short sail from the marina to a close island for a following morning start on the longer sail.
On return, a later departure enables the crew to have a more leisure morning with the guests before departing on the return sail from the Exumas to Nassau.
The yacht will provide lunch on the day of departure if they opt to leave at 3pm. They offer standard noon-noon arrival/departure time if preferred.
