SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups PUMA III is an excellent choice for larger groups or families wanting to sail together, 10 berths across 6 cabins means everyone gets decent privacy without the cost of multiple boats. The 2020 build is modern and well-maintained, which matters when you're sharing space with nine other people.

Smart, practical setup Solar panels and an inverter signal thoughtful owners who understand catamaran cruising; you'll have reliable power for longer passages and evening relaxation. The inclusion of snorkeling gear, dinghy, and bimini shows this boat is genuinely equipped for a complete Caribbean experience, not just bare-bones sailing.

Excellent value proposition At €2610/week for a six-cabin catamaran in 2020 condition, this is competitive pricing for the Caribbean, you're looking at roughly €260 per person if fully booked, which is strong value. The €5500 deposit is reasonable for a boat this size and age.

One small note With only 2 operator reviews on record, Star Voyage Antilles is less established than some competitors, so do request recent client references and clarify their support response time before committing. That said, the 4/5 rating is encouraging, and the boat's condition suggests they maintain their fleet well.

The marina & destination

Based at Le Marin, in Martinique, Martinique. PUMA III is operated by Star Voyage Antilles.

Why this is a great starting point

Le Marin sits on Martinique's south coast and serves as the perfect launch point for exploring the southern Caribbean's best-protected anchorages; you can reach Diamond Rock, the Grenadines, and St. Lucia's pitons within 2-3 days of sailing. The trade winds blow consistently from the east, making week one ideal for island-hopping down to Bequia and Mustique before stronger winds develop mid-week. The marina itself offers good facilities and provisioning, with most charter yachts departing here to take advantage of the sheltered Windward Islands passage to the south.

Frequently asked questions
Can PUMA III be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter PUMA III bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.
What sailing licence do I need to charter PUMA III?
Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.
What's included in the charter price?
The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.
What additional costs should I expect at the base?
Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.
How does the security deposit work?
The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.
Can I cancel my charter booking?
Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.
Is the yacht insured?
Yes — every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.
What documents do I need to bring?
You'll need your passport, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.
What payment methods are accepted?
Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.
