About WALK'N ON SUNSHINE

Description.

Step aboard the 2023 48-foot Dufour Catamaran, thoughtfully designed to host up to eight guests in four queen cabins. Its perfectly balanced layout—dividing the deck plan, cockpit, flybridge, and foredeck into equal thirds—creates a harmonious flow between indoor and outdoor living in every season. At the bow, two expansive sunbathing areas offer prime spots for soaking up warm rays and gentle sea breezes.

Ascend twin stairways to the generous flybridge, where a low central table is surrounded by plush seating and broad sunpads beneath a protective bimini—an idyllic perch for panoramic views or relaxed afternoons at sea.

Aft, the cockpit unfolds like an open-air living room, featuring a teak dining table for eight, multiple seating and relaxation zones, and a built-in gas plancha for effortless alfresco dining. Large portholes flood the lower salon with natural light, and a sliding window door opens fully to merge cockpit and indoor lounge into one seamless entertainment space.

Inside, the open-plan salon invites convivial gatherings beneath a 360° sea-facing panorama, while the fully equipped, ergonomic galley flows naturally towards the cockpit. A versatile sofa-dining unit adapts from cozy lounge to elegant table or even an extra double berth, and wide wraparound windows bathe the interior in warm daylight.

Below decks, four queen cabins each enjoy private dual-entry access from port and starboard, ensuring maximum guest privacy. Every stateroom boasts its own ensuite bathroom, generous storage, and thoughtfully placed portlights for excellent ventilation and brightness—creating serene retreats for restorative nights at sea.

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.

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

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
