This is a quick video featuring Chapman Ducote, owner of the host dive vessel, the DELTA Powerboats 54 Carbon. In the background are Team Salt Life (Cameron Kirkconnell, Sarah Jarrett, Ryder Devoe) and Ian Miller. When we arrived back to the docks at Big Game, in Bimini, a local was hanging out at the filet station. When he saw the slob fish we had in the cooler, he phoned his well-known, commercial fishing friend to let him know that these white boys know how to slay fish. Good times.

This video is about New Jeanneau 440 Sun Odyssey Sailboat Preview By: Ian Van Tuyl Jeanneau 440 The Jeanneau team in conjunction with Phillippe Briand have been busy totally renewing the Sun Odyssey line ready for the 2018 season and beyond. The first of this new range will be the Sun Odyssey 440, a completely new design which is packed with innovative ideas and features, sharing several key attributes of the larger Jeanneau Yacht range. She has a wide bodied hull with large rectangular black hull ports on each side, set above a distinctive hard chine that reaches all the way from the stern almost to the bow, which is fitted as standard with a bowsprit. All versions also feature twin rudders. The rig is stayed fully outboard and has a particularly low gooseneck height that will make tending classic mainsails much easier and safer. However, it is not until you step aboard that the real innovations become fully apparent. The cockpit is cunningly and uniquely designed to place the twin wheels and primary winches slightly inboard, thus allowing a safe walkway outboard of the wheels around to the sidedecks effectively inside a high bulwark that is elegant, safe and reassuring. Crew and guests can therefore move between the cockpit to go forward without any undignified scrambling across cockpit seats, cushions and occupants. The cockpit also holds more surprises as in "relaxation mode" at anchor, the cockpit seat backs can cantilever to create two huge flat lounging areas, perfect for sleeping under the stars... and if heading for the beach, there are even removable cockpit fridge and bbq units. The interior is simply cavernous for a 44 footer, with modern "loft" apartment styling, a gently raked companionway plus cabins with wide doorways without threshold steps or headroom restriction maximizing ease of movement all well illuminated by the abundance of light coming from the hull and deck windows and hatches. The galley is proudly displayed at the heart of the accommodation, also with new innovative ideas including a pop-up microwave that keeps work surfaces free and tidy when not in use. Sailing performance, as to be expected from a Briand design, is said to be very good, which is not surprising with the generous rig, chines and twin rudder configuration. Much more information on the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 440 will shortly be available on the Jeanneau website and through the Jeanneau dealer network.

There’s no party quite like a yacht party—especially when it’s on a luxurious catamaran, sailing through the stunning Croatian Adriatic. Recently, a lively crew from abroad joined us for a one-of-a-kind sailing adventure aboard a fully-equipped catamaran, expertly guided by one of our experienced skippers from Alitis Yachting. What followed was a week of epic fun, breathtaking scenery, and memories that will last a lifetime. Why Choose a Catamaran for Your Sailing Party? Catamarans are perfect for group holidays and party sailing trips. With wide open decks, spacious lounge areas, and multiple cabins, they offer comfort and privacy—without sacrificing the social vibe. Whether sunbathing up front with music playing, enjoying cocktails at sunset, or dancing under the stars, a catamaran gives you the space to truly enjoy every moment. Plus, thanks to the stability of a catamaran, even guests who are new to sailing can relax and feel comfortable on the water. Alitis Yachting: The Ultimate Sailing Experience The crew chose Alitis Yachting for their trip—and they couldn’t have made a better decision. With a fleet of modern catamarans and a team of skilled, friendly skippers, Alitis delivers more than just a charter. It’s a curated experience. Their skipper wasn’t just there to sail the boat—he was the local guide, the safety expert, the party DJ, and sometimes even the grill master! He knew the best hidden bays for swimming, the top beach bars for sunset cocktails, and the perfect sailing routes to match the crew’s vibe. The Itinerary: Sun, Sea & Sound From Split to Hvar, then onward to Vis, Brač, and the Pakleni Islands, every day brought something new: Morning swims in turquoise bays Daytime sailing with cold drinks and great tunes Afternoons exploring charming coastal towns Evenings filled with laughter, fresh seafood, and dancing under the stars In Hvar, the crew danced the night away at Carpe Diem beach club. In Vis, they hosted a private dinner party on the deck, followed by a spontaneous karaoke session. And in every anchorage, they soaked in the magic of the Adriatic. A Party to Remember What made this trip truly unforgettable wasn’t just the destinations—it was the energy on board. Sailing brings people together in a way that’s hard to describe. It’s the sea air, the shared adventure, the freedom to be completely present and alive. That’s the essence of a party at sea. The crew ended the week sun-kissed, smiling, and already planning their next sailing escape. Why Guests Keep Coming Back Chartering a catamaran with a professional skipper from Alitis Yachting means you get to focus on having fun, while everything else is taken care of. It’s safe, stylish, and completely stress-free. Whether you're celebrating a birthday, a bachelor or bachelorette party, or just living life to the fullest—this is the ultimate way to do it. And yes—they’ll be back next summer. Guaranteed. Are you ready to sail, party, and create stories worth telling? Alitis Yachting is ready to welcome you aboard.
