The exterior of Huntress is equally impressive. You can relax on the perfectly configured deck spaces that are equipped with areas for socializing without sacrificing privacy. There is no better way to revel under the Caribbean sun. The covered flybridge is home to a huge comfortable and sleek sofa and additional bench seat. It is the perfect space to enjoy the beautiful views, gorgeous sunsets, and witness the amazing milky way while at anchor. The comfort and views of the flybridge make it the best place to be, while underway, for dancing the night away and enjoying sunrise yoga.

The boat is fully equipped with snorkeling equipment and an abundance of water toys. For those interested in scuba, Huntress has an assortment of top-of-the-line dive gear for that off-the-boat diving experience. Your captain is a fully certified Divemaster and would love to share his passion for diving with his guests and can lead guests on their dives. After an adventure filled day of water sports, swimming, diving, or on-shore excursions, enjoy the well-lit and large cockpit dining area as you enjoy a world class meal with your friends and family. Enjoy a handmade cocktail prepared just for you by your professional crew right there at the cockpit bar. Top-tier service is central to life onboard Huntress, and only adds to the exclusive feel of this impressive experience. You will know the meaning of peace, relaxation and class when you charter with us on Huntress. Swimming in the turquoise waters of the Caribbean you’ll wonder why you never did this sooner.
