Captain Vito
Vito's former career encompassed roles as an electro-mechanical engineer and Development Manager, backed by a robust international experience. He holds 17 international patents! His enthusiasm for sailing began 24 years ago, during which time he has owned three yachts and earned his captain's license and a wide range of sailing and further mechanical experience. He is happy to share his knowledge and for guests to take the helm and try sailing should they wish to.
Vito's nautical adventures have taken him across the Mediterranean, Baltic Seas, Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea, and across the Atlantic. He has a deep knowledge of the Caribbean Islands, in particular the USVI, The Leeward Islands and the Windward Islands and has operated many charters throughout these waters. His priority is ensuring in the first instance guests are safe and that they are able to have fun whilst experiencing the best most beautiful locations.
Outside of sailing, Vito loves to adventure and takes pleasure in flying gliders, scuba diving, and playing tennis. His knowledge of diving in particular has equipped him with a wealth of knowledge about marine life and the best snorkeling areas in all the areas he charters which he is eager to share with guests.
Chef Bea
Bea is an experienced sailor with more than two decades of expertise and a captain's qualification, although she excels as the host. She takes great pleasure in arranging charters and her attentive demeanor ensures guests are looked after with excellent service throughout their stay. As the manager and owner of a high-end spa salon in Atlanta, Georgia, she oversaw 37 employees and understands what is needed to present a crewed yacht and how to make a crewed charter experience exceptional.
In addition to her excellent cooking and hosting skills, Bea Specializes in reflexology and she eagerly shares her expertise while on board. Bea conducts morning yoga sessions for anyone who wishes to join and loves sharing her knowledge of hiking, snorkeling, diving, and culinary arts. Her passion for animals and nature is also profound.
Bea and Vito have been cruising and offering charters in the Caribbean for the past years and have already obtained a large number of repeat bookings; guests often become friends. They very much look forward to welcoming their new guests onboard, sharing laughs, exploring stunning locations and passing on their love and knowledge of cultures and places they visit.

28th July 2024 - Highly Recommended
We had the most lovely trip with Withol and Bea last week.
The boat Sara, was perfectly adequate for what we wanted, comfortable and everything worked well. The “toys” as Withol calls them were of good quality and we made lots of use of them. Withol and Bea are excellent hosts. The perfect mix of being friendly but also allowing us enough room to have our personal space.
Bea’s cooking is very good especially given the constraints of food supplies after the hurricane.
It was interesting to be on a boat which serves as the home of the crew. Hearing their stories about their travels was also interesting. All in all, a truly fantastic holiday. We would highly recommend chartering with Sara.
16th July 2024 - The Most Wonderful Week!
Thank you for the most wonderful week. It has been a dream for us!
March 2024 - A Wonderful Celebration!
First of all - THANK YOU for a wonderful celebration of Kosta's 50th bicentenial! Your company made it special! And a cake, and all your care, your company, Vito's jokes, it all made it so special.
Our second time sailing with you and we will come back for sure. Sara, Beata's cooking, the captain, safe sailing... A special trip for snorkelling, hiking and you for all your hospitality... for making us feel like at home.
Feb 2024 - Such an Incredible Time
I don't want to think this is good-bye. Thank you for everything you have shown me and taught me and shared with me. I've had such an incredible time. I'll never forget this special time and hope to take what you've taught me into future jobs.
SARA is a beaut!

So much love and happy sailing !
Thank you for a fantastic week. We'll treasure these memories for years to come.
Nov 2023 - A wonderfull Trip!
Wow, what a wonderful trip! The time we spent onboard the Sara will be closely cherished for the rest of my life. From sailing towards stunning sunsets to snorkeling with the psychedelic parrotfish. what a treat! Bea and VIto were the grandest hosts, cooking magnificent meals and choosing the perfect private places to anchor. Highly, highly recommend to all my friends or anyone wanting the experience of a lifetime!
Nov 2023 - Wish we could keep going !
Our first time doing a multi day boat trip and at the start we said 'at the end either we'll be glad to go back to dry land, or we wouldn't want to get off the boat!'' And guess what, we wish we could keep going with SARA and sail the whole Caribbean!!
You all have been just like family on this trip - we will definitely see you again, and want to write you to visit us in Sitges, Barcelona and Soho as soon as possible please!!
Had a great time and enjoyed every second.
Ash and Henry.

Nov 2023 - A Five Star Vacation
We have been lucky to sail with Sara two years in a row. The first year in the US Virgin Islands and the second, In Antigua and Barbuda. Our hosts Beata and Wito made both trips unforgettable. Onboard, relaxing, and excellent food and drinks, or guiding us through snorkelling, sailing, paddleboarding, and more. All in all, a five star vacation. We look forward to our next adventure onboard Sara.

Experience of a Lifetime
It has been an experience of a lifetime, at least for me.
I visited the US Virgin Island, Saint Thomas and Saint John for the first time in 2021. The 7 day trip on the Catamaran Sara was amazing and it felt more than an escape frmo the daily responsibilities. The scenary changes every day, pampered by Beata's care and delicious food was above my expectations.
I felt very safe in Vito and Beata's catamaran.
Their expertise and knowledge of the navigation and the sail boat is excellent.
I enjoyed swimming with turtles, visiting the UNESCO protected underwater park near the Saint John's Island, taking a trip to visit a historical place of 500 - 1500AC pre columbian Taino people with petroglyphs near the waterfall.
The sunsets were amazing, so was the night sky with the millions of brightest stars.
I plan to return.

Best Trip of our Lives!
After recently getting married, my wife and I were looking to have a unique vacation experience. We both love beaches and yet we could not have imagined Grenada the way we got to see it by sailing on ‘The Sara’. Each day was an adventure and gave us the opportunity to swim, snorkel, and relax at unique islands. One of our favorite nights included delicious local BBQ cuisine on the beach with a beautiful sunset and cocktails. Everything seemed within arm’s reach and truly allowed us to have the fullest experience. Our only regret was that we didn’t book a longer stay but we plan to make a return in the near future!
Mr K
When I travel, I hate feeling like a tourist. Witek served as a guide and allowed us to explore Grenada and Carriacou and feel like locals. Every day we ate lovely fresh produce, and got to see new sights. There was so much to do – we even got to kayak and stand up paddle. I loved relaxing on the catamaran – getting to watch sunsets from the top of the boat, or lounge in the hammock and nap in the midday. Getting to watch movies projected onto a big screen was awesome. But the very best day was when we got to snorkel with sea turtles! Incredible memories were made. Vacations on land will seem very boring to me now!

Adventurous, Unique and Stunning Trip
My friends and I spent a week exploring Antigua with Bea and Vito in February 2023 and it was one of the most unique, adventurous and stunning trips I've ever taken. I could write endlessly about exploring the beauty of the island, snorkeling in the crystaline waters, paddleboarding to the beach at sunset, and all of the other wonderfull memories we have made, but what i'd really like to express the most is how happy I was to meet our hosts. Bea and Vito's genuine warmth, care, knowledge of the land and sea, humour and conversation made this trip truly special. There may be other boats to choose from but I couldn't think of better people to entrust with a vacation.
I still miss Bea's delicious cooking.
