Welcome to the Ayacanora

Welcome aboard the 72 foot sailing vessel Ayacanora! Built over a three year period and launched in 1981, the Ayacanora is named for the beautiful and willful heroine of the Charles Kingsley classic "Westward Ho!" We are a luxury charter vessel that operates in the Caribbean between the U.S. Virgin Islands and the British Virgin Islands.

The main salon is furnished in the style of a period home and provides a comfortable living area for watching movies. The spacious dining area accommodates eight guests on a mirror polished mahogany oval table with gimbaled centerpiece. A beautiful staircase from the pilot house provides easy access to the salon.

Ayacanora has completed her refit and is now offering two equal cabins with queen bed & pima cotton sheets, couch, dresser, closet and stand up showers, granite counters, hand painted sinks and oil rubbed bronze fixtures. She won BEST OF SHOW in the 2009 British Virgin Islands boat show!

If you're considering a tropical vacation, chartering the Ayacanora is more affordable than ever! Daily rates start at $535! We've also rolled back our 2 Passenger and 4 Passenger trips to 2004 rates! Week long tips are now $7500 for 2 passengers and $9500 for 4 passengers!
