Charter “Windfall” in the Bahamas Next Winter

Windfall, our elegant 49-foot Hinckley yacht, is available for day or overnight crewed sailboat charters in the Bahamas.

Why not join us aboard Windfall in the Bahamas, this winter and find out why so many people rate us as “excellent!” Meet us in in Georgetown, the Exumas, from February through May. Or, charter Windfall for an island-hopping vacation anywhere in the Bahamas.

Come on down to Windfall in the Bahamas for an exceptional chartering experience!

Follow the crew of Windfall on their Blog.
Better yet, why not join them!

The ketch, Windfall, is owned by Captain Raffi Kassabian. Built by Hinckley Yachts in Southwest Harbor, Maine, she is an elegant, traditionally styled, forty-nine foot sailing vessel. A full array of amenities, a spacious center cockpit and private aft cockpit all contribute to an enjoyable and comfortable sailing experience.

Being aboard defiance sail charters is a unique and special way to celebrate:

  • Wedding ceremony (by the Captain or your officiant)
  • Honeymoon
  • Birthday
  • Reunion
  • Engagement
  • Anniversary
  • Divorce
  • Fireworks
  • Bachelor/bachelorette party
  • Workshop, team building meeting
  • Memorial service at sea, or
  • Create Your Own Reason to Sail! Check out these ideas!

So “hoist the main,” take the helm, trim the sails, or just relax and be catered to as Windfall slips gently through the waters of Gloucester Harbor or the Bahamas and beyond.
