KATANA is an 85’ Westport Pacific Mariner superyacht from 2013 with classic William Garden design, blending timeless lines, warm interiors, and effortless cruising throughout the Virgin Islands and beyond. Rich wood finishes and classic styling carry through the salon and formal dining space, giving her a refined yet welcoming feel that suits both relaxed island days and elegant evenings onboard.
Accommodating up to 8 guests, KATANA offers 4 staterooms: a full-beam king master suite amidship with a desk/vanity and excellent storage, 2 queen VIP cabins, and 1 twin cabin that does not convert to a larger bed. Each stateroom includes a private ensuite. Outdoor living shines with an expansive flybridge featuring a sun pad and Jacuzzi, plus multiple alfresco dining areas, a barbecue, and a full bar for entertaining under the Caribbean sky. In-motion stabilizers keep the ride smooth, with cruising around 20 knots and top speed near 25. Classic, confident, and unforgettable, KATANA is a private escape in superyacht style.

Guest Reviews
June 2026
Our family of five (my husband, myself and our three college-aged children) just returned from an unforgettable week aboard KATANA exploring the British Virgin Islands, and I can honestly say it exceeded every expectation we had.
From the moment we stepped aboard, it wasn’t just a vacation, it was an experience we’ll be talking about for years. KATANA is absolutely beautiful. The yacht is impeccably maintained, spacious, elegant, and incredibly comfortable. Every stateroom offered privacy and luxury, and there was SO much room for our family to spread out or gather together. We loved enjoying coffee on the aft deck & watching the stars from the bow. But the BEST was relaxing in the flybridge Jacuzzi at sunset…If you have never sipped a cocktail, while soaking in a hot tub, aboard a yacht, after a fabulous day of island hopping…I HIGHLY recommend!! Wow!
What truly made this trip exceptional, however, was the crew. They were simply outstanding. Professional, warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our vacation perfect, they anticipated our needs before we even had to ask. The chef prepared restaurant-quality meals every single day that rivaled some of the best dining we’ve ever experienced. Every meal was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious, and they happily accommodated everyone’s preferences. (One member of our group didn’t eat seafood, and one member of our group was gluten-free.)
One of our favorite aspects of the trip was the itinerary the crew created for us. Every destination felt like the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation. They introduced us to lively beach bars, fun waterfront restaurants, and vibrant island nightlife, but also knew exactly where to find secluded coves, pristine beaches, and peaceful anchorages.
The water toys kept everyone entertained for hours. Between snorkeling, paddleboarding, sea scooters, & flight board, there was never a dull moment. And the best was the day the crew blew up THE YACHT SLIDE!!! Oh my goodness, what an experience…so many LAUGHS and so much FUN! Our college-aged kids had an absolute blast, and my husband and I loved that there was something for all of us.
The British Virgin Islands are breathtaking, but experiencing them aboard KATANA was awesome. If you’re considering a charter, don’t hesitate. KATANA offers it all! This was THE finest vacations our family has ever taken, and we cannot wait to return. Thank you to the incredible crew, Roger, Kristina & Kayla for giving us a week we’ll cherish for a lifetime.
