A strong base of loyal, repeat customers ensures consistent performance and stability for its next custodians.
The current owners have maintained Capella to an exceptional standard, investing hundreds of hours in upgrades and presentation. Their commitment has positioned the vessel and brand at the forefront of local and international tourism, supported by a long-standing digital footprint that includes years of first-page Google rankings.
As a family-run business, Charter 1 strikes the ideal balance between flexibility and profitability. With all foundations firmly in place, there remains significant potential for expansion -- whether through enhanced marketing, new locations, extended seasons, or developing overnight charter opportunities.
Built locally in Western Australia, the S. V. Capella is a Schionning Cosmos 1250 -- a high-performing sailing catamaran designed and constructed for comfort, safety, and exceptional stability.
Below deck, Capella offers five well-appointed cabins -- comprising two double berths (queen size beds) and three twin single cabins -- along with two heads and two deck showers. Her layout is designed for both guest comfort and operational practicality, making her perfectly suited to luxury day charters and overnight expeditions alike.
The interior boasts a spacious saloon with ample dining and lounge seating, complemented by a fully equipped galley to starboard. Wide companionways lead forward with AMSA-compliant rail heights, while aft, a generous cockpit and large lowerable swim platform provide guests with an inviting and social space for relaxation and easy water access.
Meticulously maintained and presented to the highest standard, Capella is a testament to her owners' attention to detail. Both cosmetically and structurally, she presents in immaculate condition -- truly reflective of a vessel of this calibre and reputation.
