SPIRIT OF PONANT is a Lagoon Seventy 7 sailing catamaran, built in 2024 to accommodate twelve guests across six ensuite double cabins, and available for charter in the Seychelles.
At just under 24 metres with an 11-metre beam, the Seventy 7 hull makes SPIRIT OF PONANT one of the more voluminous catamaran charter options available in the Seychelles, with generous interior space and deck areas across multiple levels.
The main saloon is light-filled with panoramic views, connecting naturally to the aft cockpit and flybridge sunbathing areas. The wide beam delivers the stability and interior volume that the Lagoon Seventy 7 is known for, making passages comfortable and time aboard spacious. Additional touches include a wine cellar and a grill and plancha on the exterior decks, with the onboard chef cooking fresh meals alfresco in the cockpit or on the flybridge depending on the mood of the day.
The toy selection covers wing foils, water skis, wakeboard, a Tiwal sailing dinghy, paddleboards, floating pontoon, snorkelling gear and fishing equipment, with a 5-metre semi-rigid tender on a hydraulic platform for shore excursions and reef access. A crew of four, with strong local knowledge of the Seychelles, manages every aspect of the charter.
The aft cockpit, flybridge and foredeck sunbathing areas give guests distinct spaces to move between across the day, with room to dine, relax and take in the Seychelles scenery at every level.
The toy selection gives guests the freedom to explore the Seychelles at their own pace — from wing foiling in open water and wakeboarding behind the tender to snorkelling the reefs and fishing the deeper channels, with a floating pontoon and Tiwal sailing dinghy adding further options across the week.
The wide beam of the Lagoon Seventy 7 delivers the stability and interior volume that makes passages comfortable and time aboard spacious, whether under sail or at anchor in the island shallows.
A typical week begins with embarkation from the pontoon of L'Escale Resort in Mahé, raising the sails as SPIRIT OF PONANT heads toward Praslin and the inner islands. Mornings open with snorkelling off the stern, wing foiling in open water and swimming from the floating pontoon in the clear, warm shallows of the Seychelles. Short passages under sail connect the granite boulders and turtle-rich reefs of La Digue, Curieuse and the Sainte Anne Marine Park. Evenings settle into the cockpit or flybridge, the chef preparing fresh fish dinners as the Indian Ocean light fades. Throughout the week, the captain and crew shape each day around conditions and guest preferences, ensuring a smooth and personalised charter experience.
Guests choose SPIRIT OF PONANT for the space, the sailing experience and the access the Seychelles provides across a week. The Lagoon Seventy 7 hull delivers considerably more volume than a conventional charter catamaran at this length, with six ensuite cabins for twelve guests, an onboard chef and a toy selection that covers sailing, water sports and reef exploration. Built in 2024 and in new condition throughout, it is a well-specified choice for guests who want to explore the Seychelles under sail.
