Shaitan of Tortola
82' Ron Holland Ketch
Shaitan of Tortola was designed by the famous naval
architect Ron Holland.
He drew the lines of a strong, yet elegant hull with enough
freeboard for dry sailing
.
Driven by a powerful ketch-rig, Shaitan is fast sailing
with racing capabilities and is, at the same time, a very comfortable cruising vessel with
an abundance of living space.
All the itineraries on the Shaitan are custom.
Whether
you're looking for simple quiet serenity or an adventure on the high seas, Shaitan is the
yacht that will fulfill your expectations.

Shaitan is owned and operated by Henry Metz and Iris
Mosing. They left their home country Germany and sailed to the Caribbean,
where they spent the last twenty years working and living on boats.
Henry is in his late forties and has been sailing all his life. He is
looking back at sixteen years of Charter Experience, building up from a
smaller yacht. He served as a navigator in the Navy and went on to several
Atlantic Crossings. Henry worked as a sailing instructor and as a dive
master knows the best dive spots all over the Eastern Caribbean . Beside
water sports Henry likes to experience nature and foreign culture in all
its variety. Being an engineer by trade he loves to build and create -
all evident in most of the custom refitting done on Shaitan by Henry
himself.
Iris is in her early forties and has crossed the Atlantic together with
Henry on a 29' sloop coming to the Caribbean. She is a licensed captain, a
retired dive instructor and a four time winner of the Grand Marnier
Cooking Competition. Having grown up around their parents' nursery she
loves flora and fauna.
Four years ago Henry and Iris' daughter was born and Iris will stay ashore
with her, if there is a quality freelance chef available, that can
guarantee the same grade of cuisine and service Iris' experience stands
for.
There always will be a third crewmember on the yacht to help with the
sailing, keeping everything shipshape on deck and the cabins in order, if
the charter is not specifically booked as a charter with captain and chef
Elsie also resides on Shaitan. She loves people, specially the young ones,
and will bring many playful moments to your stay.
Nevertheless there is the possibility that Elsie stays ashore with Henry's
family, if this is the charterer's preference.
