Welcome aboard "Sea Level," our beautiful 50' Durbeck ketch-rigged classic sailing yacht. With a spacious foredeck, comfortable cushioned deck chairs, premium bean bag lounges, and a shaded cockpit with a dining area, there's no better way to relax and take in the stunning views of the Virgin Islands.

​

But that's not all. We've also equipped the "Sea Level" with an air-conditioned bathroom, changing room, and lounge, high-quality snorkeling equipment, a huge 10' inflatable circular "oasis" float for the ultimate in water relaxation, a stand-up paddleboard, and a 15' RIB with 70hp Yamaha outboard engine to quickly transport guests to beaches and hidden snorkel destinations. And with beautiful classic styling, including her hand-laid custom teak cap rails, the "Sea Level" is sure to make your charter experience a truly unforgettable one.
