An Exciting Yacht

STENELLA is an exciting and beautiful yacht combining outstanding sailing performance with a superb accommodation plan.

Twin sailing helms aft allow performance sailing on either tack - and if you don't understand what that means, Stenella's crew can either teach you, or let you relax while they do all the work! After all, that is the point of a luxury sailing vacation like the ones aboard Stenella.

With over 500 square feet of sail area, generator, seven foot draft, she is a perfect blend of performance and luxury. Crew quarters are separate aft, along with a full navigation station and well-equipped galley.

The guest facilities have been well thought out and there are many additional features that stand Stenella apart, including a full list of amenities and toys.

Three equal staterooms open off the saloon. Each has a separate toilet and separate shower en suite. The staterooms are all luxuriously equipped with large wardrobes, drawers, a vanity table, hair dryer, TV/DVD player and air conditioning.

STENELLA was built in South Africa in 1991 and has very recently undergone a major refit so that she is in absolutely fabulous condition and full working order.

The crew quarters and galley are situated aft with separate access from the deck. This ensures your complete privacy and enables your Captain and gourmet chef to run and manage your charter unobtrusively 

On deck, STENELLA has a unique and innovative aft platform that extends the sheerline adding a large seating area and easy access to and from the water.

After a fun filled day of great food, sailing, swimming, snorkeling, diving and other watersports, freshen up using Stenella's unlimited fresh water supply, then gather on deck for a happy hour and watch the end of yet another perfect day.

Stenella's Crew

Andrew Woodruff and Kristin Clements
Your Captain and Chef

Andrew Woodruff gained his sailing experience where he grew up in England whilst Kristin coming from Florida gained her passion for the sea in the Islands. They met by chance and decided to go and travel the world together for two years. They shared many adventures together and now wish to share more with you as your crew.

They both really enjoy sailing and the sea and are passionate about sharing it with others. As crew of Stenella they really go out of their way to make sure all their guests have a great time. Combined they make a great team on Stenella.

Your Captain Andrew Woodruff, originally from England has been involved in sailing all his life. Andy's experience comes from years of sailing and extensive yacht racing. The height of his racing career was sailing with the GBR Challenge Team for the Americas Cup. Unfortunately, Andy did not get to race in New Zealand for GBR Challenge.

Apart from racing, Andy has crewed many private and charter yachts and completed many yacht deliveries. Other than sailing he loves to dive, bike, hike, travel and just have fun.

Andy has a RYA/DoT Commercial Yachtmaster license. He ensures the highest competence and safety to guests and maintains Stenella to the highest standards and safety requirements. Andy also is PADI certified and qualified in Maritime Leisure Management.

Your First Mate & Chef Kristin Clements or KC, as her friends know her, is from the southeast United States. Born in Savannah, GA, and growing up on the coast of Florida, KC offers a charm of southern hospitality that will make you feel right at home on Stenella.

KC has always enjoyed cooking and entertaining. When traveling the world she took extensive culinary courses where she picked up some great Stenella recipes. Her menu offers anything from down home cookin', to Caribbean flavors with a worldly flare.

For fun, she took a bartending course where she learned the art of making GREAT cocktails! Hey, it's always cocktail hour somewhere in the world...
