NEMO
$12,800 - $16,100 / WEEK
DISCOVER NEMO Comfort travels with you: the two hulls of the catamaran guarantee an excellent stability and then assure a pleasant navigation, without sharp movements nor extreme inclinations like on a monohull sailing boat. That's why a holiday aboard Nemo is ideal also for kids, who can move safely onboard and play on the wide fore nets. Nemo is also equipped with many optionals, such as solar panels, generator and water maker- so can operate at anchorage without the need to dock. SEA FOR EVERY TASTE. Nemo's all inclusive cruise has been created to fill your moments up with unforgettable remembrances. Including the culinary ones: on the catamaran tastes and flavours are not at random and every meal becomes a little gastronomical discovery, a journey through refined dishes and very genuine ingredients, from onboard-made bread, pizza and yoghurt to barbecue nights and sunset cocktails. ECO-COMPATIBILITY WATER AND ELECTRIC ENERGY: A GIFT FROM NATURE. We've chosen to produce our own drinkable water by desalinating sea water and filtrating it with a specific reverse osmotic water purifier to guarantee its bacteriological pureness. The huge environmental benefit is not to use and waste hundreds of plastic bottles. Onboard-produced water is kept cool (and sparkling if desired) using glass bottles, with the same method of yoghurt production. Nemo is equipped with two 66 x 130 cm solar panels with 315 W/h energy production and two aeolian generators that satisfy all the energetic needs of common utilities such as light, battery chargers, fridge and freezer, using the solar energy accumulated during day time and the aeolic one gathered in every breezy moment, day and night. New for 2020, Nemo has all new cockpit cushions made with environmentally certified fabrics. For more information visit www.nemo-yachting.co

Santi - June 8, 1985 (35) - Buenos Aires, Argentina
Santi grew up in San Isidro (Buenos Aires), where he lived with his parents and seven brothers until he was 19 years old. All men! With a large family, there was always much organization.
At the age of 20, he traveled to New Zealand to work and for the travel experience. Then he went to live in Spain for one year, working in a hostel reservation center for Europe.
From a very young age (5 years old), he started sailing an Optimist, and then as a cadet until 17 years old. He plays different sports, but his hobby is making electric LEGO trains.
His family always had a boat (sailboat and (powerboat) cruise ship), so he was always in contact with the water, his great passion.
Santi went to “Marín School”. Moreover, he is self-taught in all matters of technology and processes. He has dedicated many years to these tasks.
His friends define him as an introverted, executive, and fun person.
"Only one thing makes a dream impossible: The fear of failure."
Luli - January 5, 1992 (28) - Buenos Aires, Argentina
For her first 28 years, Luli lived with her parents and three sisters in San Isidro, a very beautiful, quiet city with green spaces and a coastal area.
As a child, she went to the club almost every weekend and played with her friends. That is where her love for boats began. The club is near the river, and she could see everyone hoisting their sails.
Many friends had boats so many times we went sailing. In 2017 she bought her first boat with Santiago that they enjoyed every weekend and on day-offs.
Luli studied at “La Unidad School”, graduating as a Passenger Cabin Crew. For eight years, she worked in a travel agency arranging itineraries and sales of tourist services.
Her hobby is making crafts such as knitting in two rows or the macramé technique. Moreover, her favorite sport is riding a bike.
Luli's friends define her as fun, Natural, and very perfectionist.
"Kiss slowly, Speak clearly, Fail a little, Dance a lot, Love hard and Laugh really."

Luli and Santi
It was such a pleasure to spend the end of 2020 and the New Year's celebration of 2021. We shared the seas and the moon and delightful meals on your wonderful boat with your delightful company. We learned to sail in the winds and rain and explore the Islands with your guidance and curiosity. We wish you a magical year sailing, great company, and many stories to remember the year of 2021. Please tell us when you two are in the States and we will tell you when we are back to the Caribbean.
Friends forever!

Guys, we've had a perfect few days in your company. We enjoyed tasty meals, talks under the moon, some of us also learned to appreciate sailing and enjoy the wind, in short, a repeatable and recommendable experiment. On the other hand, your warmth made us feel that we were among friends and it was all much easier. Thank you very much for everything and we wish you the best.

We just had an amazing sailing vacation with Santiago and Luli on the catamaran Nemo. We went a day early to stay at Grand Case in St Martin. We did not want to be late for our trip. The next day, we met Santiago at the Marina to begin our adventure. We went to Anse Marcel for lunch and then sailed to St Barts before Tropical storm, Elsa arrived with Santiago confidently at the helm. The weather cleared swiftly. Santiago surprised us with a car rental for the day in St Barts. We explored the beautiful island and stopped for lunch at a quiet hotel on the beach. The views were spectacular! We anchored at the most amazing places!
They were quiet with lots of things to do. You could hike to a lookout, snorkel, float, paddleboard, or kayak. We felt like we were in paradise. We anchored at Colombier at St. Bart's and Ile Fourchue. When Santiago got out all the water toys, our boat looked like the best place to be in the anchorage. We would try out each one and go back around again. We also anchored at Ile Tintamarre, in St. Martin as well as Pinel Island. This is a lovely small island that we hiked on, roamed around, and stayed for drinks at the restaurant that was open all before people arrived. It was lovely. You can only get there by boat. The ferries were not running that day, so it was not as crowded as usual.
We kayaked into Friar’s Bay beach; a lovely spot to swim or snorkel. Each place was more lovely than the last. The food was amazing; we loved Luli’s cooking but make sure you save room for her desserts. Every day when we returned to our room, everything was cleaned, and we were greeted with inspirational quotes left on our bed. Santi and Luli were exceptional as our captain and cook. Santi took some amazing drone footage to remember our trip.
Everything was just perfect! It is a trip we will treasure forever!
hank you to our new friends, Santi & Luli

Santi and Luli
Thank you for the wonderful week in the Caribbean Sea. We didn't know what to expect for the week, but it was one of our family's greatest and most memorable experiences. Our children had a fantastic time learning about sailing, the islands, life on a catamaran. You were wonderful with them and they will always remember you.
All of the meals are really good.
I loved to drive the boat.
It was great to experience all of the beaches with you and will cherish this time together getting to know you. If you are ever near Chicago, reach out.

Thank you so much for the much needed relaxation and vacation. From the sun, sailing, cocktails and food, everything was wonderful. I (we) are so grateful to be able to laugh and have wonderful memories. Your coves, sunsets, and sea turtles are purely heaven. Even after a week aboard, it still is too short.
Best from Texas!!

Dear Santi & Lucia,
Our sincere thanks and appreciation for everything you both did to create an unforgettable charter for Isla and I during an unpredictable time. Santi kept us safe and toured us around all these special places, and Luli, your meals were SO delicious and outstanding!! Isla and I will spend many days and nights reminiscing about our trip to St. Barths, Île Fourshue and St. Martin and Ilet Pinel and your amazing dinners and desserts.
We'll always appreciate the small little things you did for our charter to be special ❤️❤️

Santi grew up in San Isidro (Buenos Aires), where he lived with his parents and seven brothers until he was 19 years old. All men! With a large family, there was always much organization.
At the age of 20, he traveled to New Zealand to work and for the travel experience. Then he went to live in Spain for one year, working in a hostel reservation center for Europe.
From a very young age (5 years old), he started sailing an Optimist, and then as a cadet until 17 years old. He plays different sports, but his hobby is making electric LEGO trains.
His family always had a boat (sailboat and (powerboat) cruise ship), so he was always in contact with the water, his great passion.
Santi went to “Marín School”. Moreover, he is self-taught in all matters of technology and processes. He has dedicated many years to these tasks.
His friends define him as an introverted, executive, and fun person.
"Only one thing makes a dream impossible: The fear of failure."
Luli - January 5, 1992 (28) - Buenos Aires, Argentina
For her first 28 years, Luli lived with her parents and three sisters in San Isidro, a very beautiful, quiet city with green spaces and a coastal area.
As a child, she went to the club almost every weekend and played with her friends. That is where her love for boats began. The club is near the river, and she could see everyone hoisting their sails.
Many friends had boats so many times we went sailing. In 2017 she bought her first boat with Santiago that they enjoyed every weekend and on day-offs.
Luli studied at “La Unidad School”, graduating as a Passenger Cabin Crew. For eight years, she worked in a travel agency arranging itineraries and sales of tourist services.
Her hobby is making crafts such as knitting in two rows or the macramé technique. Moreover, her favorite sport is riding a bike.
Luli's friends define her as fun, Natural, and very perfectionist.
"Kiss slowly, Speak clearly, Fail a little, Dance a lot, Love hard and Laugh really."

Luli and Santi
It was such a pleasure to spend the end of 2020 and the New Year's celebration of 2021. We shared the seas and the moon and delightful meals on your wonderful boat with your delightful company. We learned to sail in the winds and rain and explore the Islands with your guidance and curiosity. We wish you a magical year sailing, great company, and many stories to remember the year of 2021. Please tell us when you two are in the States and we will tell you when we are back to the Caribbean.
Friends forever!

Guys, we've had a perfect few days in your company. We enjoyed tasty meals, talks under the moon, some of us also learned to appreciate sailing and enjoy the wind, in short, a repeatable and recommendable experiment. On the other hand, your warmth made us feel that we were among friends and it was all much easier. Thank you very much for everything and we wish you the best.

We just had an amazing sailing vacation with Santiago and Luli on the catamaran Nemo. We went a day early to stay at Grand Case in St Martin. We did not want to be late for our trip. The next day, we met Santiago at the Marina to begin our adventure. We went to Anse Marcel for lunch and then sailed to St Barts before Tropical storm, Elsa arrived with Santiago confidently at the helm. The weather cleared swiftly. Santiago surprised us with a car rental for the day in St Barts. We explored the beautiful island and stopped for lunch at a quiet hotel on the beach. The views were spectacular! We anchored at the most amazing places!
They were quiet with lots of things to do. You could hike to a lookout, snorkel, float, paddleboard, or kayak. We felt like we were in paradise. We anchored at Colombier at St. Bart's and Ile Fourchue. When Santiago got out all the water toys, our boat looked like the best place to be in the anchorage. We would try out each one and go back around again. We also anchored at Ile Tintamarre, in St. Martin as well as Pinel Island. This is a lovely small island that we hiked on, roamed around, and stayed for drinks at the restaurant that was open all before people arrived. It was lovely. You can only get there by boat. The ferries were not running that day, so it was not as crowded as usual.
We kayaked into Friar’s Bay beach; a lovely spot to swim or snorkel. Each place was more lovely than the last. The food was amazing; we loved Luli’s cooking but make sure you save room for her desserts. Every day when we returned to our room, everything was cleaned, and we were greeted with inspirational quotes left on our bed. Santi and Luli were exceptional as our captain and cook. Santi took some amazing drone footage to remember our trip.
Everything was just perfect! It is a trip we will treasure forever!
hank you to our new friends, Santi & Luli

Santi and Luli
Thank you for the wonderful week in the Caribbean Sea. We didn't know what to expect for the week, but it was one of our family's greatest and most memorable experiences. Our children had a fantastic time learning about sailing, the islands, life on a catamaran. You were wonderful with them and they will always remember you.
All of the meals are really good.
I loved to drive the boat.
It was great to experience all of the beaches with you and will cherish this time together getting to know you. If you are ever near Chicago, reach out.

Thank you so much for the much needed relaxation and vacation. From the sun, sailing, cocktails and food, everything was wonderful. I (we) are so grateful to be able to laugh and have wonderful memories. Your coves, sunsets, and sea turtles are purely heaven. Even after a week aboard, it still is too short.
Best from Texas!!

Dear Santi & Lucia,
Our sincere thanks and appreciation for everything you both did to create an unforgettable charter for Isla and I during an unpredictable time. Santi kept us safe and toured us around all these special places, and Luli, your meals were SO delicious and outstanding!! Isla and I will spend many days and nights reminiscing about our trip to St. Barths, Île Fourshue and St. Martin and Ilet Pinel and your amazing dinners and desserts.
We'll always appreciate the small little things you did for our charter to be special ❤️❤️
Including "a piece of the moon!!"🌜✨
Our very best,
Adeline & Isla
