Bluewinds is the perfect platform for experiencing the majesty of the Caribbean! An ongoing 2022/23 refit brings all new interior and exterior decor, new generators, water maker, tender and a "boat load" of new gear, making Bluewinds will be the premiere Lagoon 560 chartering the British Virgin Islands and Greater Caribbean region. Her crew, Travis and Peta, are industry professionals that will not only take care of guest needs, but lead experiences and create an active, albeit luxurious charter experience for groups of friends and families alike.
No expense was spared in outfitting this gorgeous luxury sailing yacht which offers four guest cabins (for 8 guests), each with their own private bathroom, a salon with 360 degree windows, 2 dining areas and a foredeck sitting area. Amenities and toys include TVs in each cabin, 2 trampolines, a 15-foot tender for wakeboarding, tubing or zipping to gorgeous beaches, 2 standup paddleboards, a floating dock, a hydraulic swim step for easy water access, and snorkeling and diving gear. Bluewind’s elegant yet minimalist design provides the handling of a performance sailing catamaran while offering the ambience and amenities of a world class resort on the water. Spacious design of the cockpit and flybridge areas offer guests panoramic vistas, al fresco dining and ample space for lounging, whether in sun or shade.

With many years in the yachting industry, Travis has spent the last four captaining luxury charter catamarans throughout the Virgin Islands and the Bahamas, where his guests know him for his calm leadership, good humor, and steady hand on the helm. A true problem-solver, he has a knack for fixing just about anything on board, ensuring smooth sailing and peace of mind for both guests and crew. As a qualified dive instructor, Travis brings an added dimension to charter experiences, guiding guests safely into the underwater world, and in his time ashore he owns and runs a dive school in South Africa, passing his passion for the ocean on to new divers. His love of the sea is matched by his love of sport and the outdoors, and his adventurous spirit shines through whether he’s navigating a tricky anchorage, leading a dive, or joining guests for a laugh and a story during a long sail. Warm, approachable, and endlessly capable, Travis creates an atmosphere where everyone feels welcome, safe, and ready to enjoy every moment on the water.
Peta has been sailing and cooking in the Virgin Islands for over a year and a half, and she loves nothing more than sharing her passions with guests onboard. In the galley, she creates fresh, flavorful meals tailored to each group — from vibrant island dishes to comforting favorites — always with a little extra flair. When she’s not cooking, you’ll find her working alongside the captain as first mate: sailing, snorkeling, and making sure every detail of your trip runs smoothly. She’s known for her warm personality, love of good food, and ability to make everyone feel at home the moment they step aboard. Whether she’s whipping up a homemade dessert, teaching paddleboard basics, or dancing along to island tunes, Peta brings joy and care into everything she does.
