Built in 2023, this 48’ Dufour catamaran is thoughtfully designed for effortless cruising, blending elegant living spaces with a balanced layout that creates a natural flow between the flybridge, cockpit, foredeck, and salon. Twin stairways lead to a spacious flybridge with plush seating, broad sunpads, and a protective bimini, while two expansive sunbathing areas at the bow offer inviting spots to soak up the sea breeze and panoramic views.
The aft cockpit feels like an open-air living room, complete with a teak dining table for eight, multiple lounging areas, and a built-in gas plancha for relaxed alfresco meals. Large portholes and a fully opening salon door flood the bright interior with natural light, seamlessly connecting the cockpit to the open-plan salon and ergonomic galley. Wide wraparound windows complete the airy, contemporary atmosphere.
Accommodating up to 8 guests, she offers 4 queen cabins, each with a private ensuite, generous storage, and excellent natural light and ventilation. Dual-entry access from both port and starboard enhances privacy, while a versatile salon seating area easily transforms from a comfortable lounge to a dining space or additional double berth. Elegant, spacious, and beautifully balanced, this Dufour is designed to make every day on the water feel effortless.

Just wanted to tell you how wonderful our trip was!!!!!
The boat and the people were amazing! The captain, was the perfect fit and we really appreciate him stepping in at last minute! Super knowledgeable about the islands and fun to be around. Sandy, the chef, was amazing as well. And when I say chef, she is really a chef! Food was outstanding and healthy!!!
We were never in need of anything. So fun to be around also. Plan to keep in touch with everyone!
The islands were beautiful and it was really hard to come home. Benita did a wonderful job helping us find just the right boat for our family, and it was wonderful!

Walking on Sunshine — what a perfect name for a week we never forget!
Eight friends, two couples, and a lifetime of memories made exploring the beauty of the BVIs. The islands were incredible, but what truly made this trip unforgettable were Matt and Sandy. You gave us the gift of feeling completely safe while somehow making every moment fun and adventurous. Your patience, your ability to teach, and your deep knowledge made it all better. Your personality made every day even brighter.
You are not just an amazing captain, you are someone we genuinely loved spending time with.
Sandy — six weeks in and clearly an absolute star. Your passion and creativity came through in every delicious meal. You did not just cook for us, you created moments that brought us together. Your energy is infectious and your talent is something really special. ♡
⸻
What meant even more is how you both went out of your way to make the experience just as incredible for the other boat traveling with us. That kind of care and thoughtfulness doesn’t go unnoticed.
Somewhere along the way, you stopped being our captain and chef and became part of our travel family.
Sitting here on our last morning, taking it all in, it’s hard to leave the BVIs — but even harder to leave you both.
Thank you for the laughter, the care, and the memories we’ll carry forever.
Same crew, same sunshine… until next time.

Captain Mufo and Sandy were amazing! They went above and beyond to make this trip special for our group. We were on a tandem sail and they even helped our friends on the other boat several times.

Highly recommend these guys and we have made two new friends!

Our week on Walk’n on Sunshine with Captain Mufo and Chef Sandy was nothing short of amazing. You both made our experience so memorable. You made us feel so welcomed and right at home from the start. Captain’s knowledge and experience gave us a personalized trip that was even better than we could have imagined. And Chef Sandy’s food was so creative, beautiful and delicious! The poke bowls were the best! Mufo and Sandy have become family after just one week together and completely exceeded our expectations. We hope to follow their adventures for many years to come.
Love,
Lori & Craig

This trip was absolutely incredible! We came to celebrate Elena’s birthday and had an absolute blast. Captain Mufo kept us laughing the whole time and made sure we had so many fun things to do. Sandy spoiled us with her positive attitude and amazing food. This was so much fun and we will never forget this trip of Sandy & Mufo’s amazing dance moves!

Most fun vacation we’ve ever done!! — Brett (WI)
March 2026
Our group of four couples chartered Walk’n on Sunshine for a week in March and had a fantastic time. Captain Mufit put together a fun itinerary with all of the usual spots plus some new ones that we hadn’t been to before. The winds were challenging most of the trip so we were only able to sail a few of the days but that didn’t stop us from enjoying the days. We were still able to get in plenty of swimming, snorkeling, beach time and a little bar hopping! Chef/Mate Sandy could not have been more enjoyable and she spoiled us daily with amazing meals. She talked about the health benefits of some of the foods and why she paired certain dishes together which was interesting. She also played the role of photographer and got some priceless pictures that we’ll all treasure.
Thanks again to Captain Mufit and Sandy for the incredible week. We will be in touch if/when we’re back in BVI!
Thank you,
Sue

Celebrating my 60th birthday, we wanted to do something different. We came with no expectations or detailed itinerary. It was magical! Capt. Mufo demonstrated amazing skills and Sandy spoiled us with outstanding meals, drinks, and service! Truly unforgettable!

Favorite Family Vacation Ever!
Our group of 8 (mom/dad, 22 & 20 year old daughters and 2 friends & 16 year old son and a friend) had a perfect week on Walkn on Sunshine. We island hopped and enjoyed incredible meals prepared by Marielle. She is amazing - every meal was delicious and her energy is great to be around. We enjoyed a few marina stays (Oil Nut Bay, Spanish Town and Scrub) and moored a few nights (definitely recommend reserving via Boaty Ball as the first come first serve balls go quickly). We hit all our favorite BVI spots and had great family time. Can’t say enough great things about Walkn on Sunshine and Marielle - can’t wait to go back!
Best Charter Ever!!!!
An absolutely amazing vacation! We cannot express our gratitude enough to Captain Bryan and Jaden. They were an amazing team and made our 4th time sailing the BVI's by far the best! The meals, itinerary, yoga (yes, Bryan even led us in yoga which was a bonus!) was all top notch. Plus they made our daughter's 21st birthday celebration extra special!! But best of all - it was not having to worry about anything because they had it all under control. It was a true vacation. The only thing that was sad was leaving them!
Unforgettable!
Where do I begin…..From the moment we arrived Bryan and Nina worked tirelessly in EVERY aspect to ensure our group of 9 were happy and safe!
Nina happily adjusted meal plans more than once, obtained additional requested provisions, and went the extra mile to decorate for special occasions that took place during our stay.
Bryan was always keeping watch over the weather to ensure we sailed the safest and most comfortable routes. He was dedicated on maintaining the mechanical workings of the boat so that all was in tip top shape. He also provided beautiful table scapes for our evening dinners as well.
The two of them worked endlessly together doing dishes, and keeping the boat clean which was no easy feat with such a large group on board.
We loved all of our chats with Bryan and Nina, getting to know them on a personal level made them quickly feel like family to us.
You have not lived unless you've had a Bryan & Nina!!
We are blessed to have experienced such an unforgettable trip with the two of them! We will miss them very much but look forward to keeping in touch and following your upcoming adventures!
Trip of a lifetime
I’m not sure how to put this trip into words. We have traveled to many great places and this week has been by far one of the greatest trips ever. Bryan and Bri are fantastic and we could not have asked for a better crew. We will have stories for life and glad Bryan and Bri were part of it. From the amazing food Bri prepared daily to the beach days and Bryan teaching us the ropes of handling the boat. We even had a blast riding out the tropical storm for one night. The boat is a great size with everything you need on board. Beds are very comfortable and rooms have plenty of space. The places to sit and take in the views are numerous and none are bad. They crew never stops making sure all things are covered to make the trip unforgettable. This was an anniversary trip for us and another couple and it may never be topped. We will definitely be going back and Bryan and Bri will have to be part of it
Best anniversary week you could ever imagine
The Shaw family
As long time lovers of all things sailing, swimming, and island hopping this was actually our first charter. What an amazing experience with Bryan and Nina. A great time was had! We are booking the next one! Bryan has amazing stories to tell. Ask him! Nina is an effortless and terrific cook! We had the most wonderful time!
The Kubenas Exceptional stay!
Our stay was exceptional and chaotic as is anything with our two families. Bryan and Nina were awesome always being available and enthusiastic during our stay and we look forward to coming back in the future. More time of course but otheriwse keep smiling and don't take the situation too seriously. Life is short and so long as y'all are having fun we will be as well! Love, The Kubenas.
The Ogdens experience
What an experience! Its not just the fantastic scenery but also the crew. A good family friendly crew makes the trip. Nina and Bryan and experts and so much fun!
