The engine’s roar cuts through warm Caribbean air as the bow lifts and the coastline slides into a ribbon of beach and reef. On a clear morning off St. Lucia’s west coast the sea dares you forward—fast, open, and bright—and the boat answers with speeds up to 65 knots that turn travel into a moving viewfinder.
