Adventures with family and friends become stories, and stories turn into legends. Shared dreams drive the configuration of the 72, with at least five distinct areas for socializing, relaxing and making memories together, and an unprecedented level of layout customizability to accommodate your unique tribe. Plush interiors and the comprehensive treatment of interior design reflect the personality of each owner. The inviting, bright and airy character of the 72 shines through.
Considerate treatment of form and function give rise to a carefree ambience for creating memories with the ones you love.
Hull layouts start with the owner’s lifestyle – a VIP cabin and desires for additional personal space such as an office – and proceed with accommodations in multiple guest cabins for up to 8 passengers (6 adviced) and separate quarters for 3 crew. The interior of the Gunboat 72 is dynamic and bright, pure and inviting.
Conceived for the liveaboard lifestyle, the enormous salon provides a protected safety zone, with a lounge area to starboard and a gourmet galley to port.
Connected to the salon by large sliding doors, the aft cockpit is the heart of entertainment. It’s the go-to spot for lounging and dining, just steps from the transom for a refreshing swim and the wet bar for happy hour - as welcoming to a party of 20 as it is to a few.

If you’re looking for the real deal Caribbean experience, Some Kind of Wonderful is where it’s at. This is the only catamaran with an all-Caribbean crew, a Caribbean-themed interior, and a locally inspired menu. It’s luxury meets local culture, and it’s no wonder the crew stole the spotlight at the show.
With a whole life’s worth of local knowledge, they know the Virgin Islands the best of anyone. They love taking guests on farm tours and historic hikes and even meeting with local musicians and artists.
The yacht itself is as impressive as the experience. With a lightweight, high-performance design, it’s fast, smooth, and super comfortable. The flybridge is the real gem—a huge space with lounge seating, daybeds, cocktail tables, and even two fridges to keep the drinks ice-cold. It’s the perfect spot to hang out, whether you’re soaking up the sun or watching the stars.
But let’s talk about the crew. Captain Lukata Samuel is a Virgin Islands local who discovered his passion for sailing right here at home. His career has taken him all over the Caribbean, but now he’s back doing what he loves most: sharing his home waters with guests.
Captain Lukata’s partner, Benita, the chef onboard, is just as amazing. With family roots spanning the Caribbean, from Cuba to Trinidad, she brings a true local explorer’s spirit. She’s spent years in the culinary and restaurant world. She says her favorite thrill is “watching her guests dance when they eat.” And if you’re into yoga or pilates, you’re in luck—Benita is a certified instructor and even offers yoga-focused charters.
