BELLA Yacht Description
The Bali 4.8 design was new to the market in 2020 and provided a fresh approach to sailing. The design is revolutionary in how space is accessed, with deliberate attention to flow and open space.
It succeeds in producing a scale that feels less like a boat, and more like an upscale floating condominium.
Bali catamarans are known and appreciated for their unparalleled success in blending luxury, space, and performance; producing a sailing experience that is unparalleled.
This new design further capitalizes on that reputation with the advent of the “Bali garage door” that is the centerpiece of the yacht. It allows for the aft wall of the yacht to simply disappear, opening up the back of the yacht to an unobstructed view of paradise. This also affords indoor/outdoor dining options and gives the ever-
present Caribbean breeze ample opportunity to make its way through the yacht with ease.
With her solid foredeck gone are the forward trampolines, replaced by a large relaxing lounge area complete with cushions for sunbathing. A full- sized door provides access directly from the lounge area into the salon, allowing free movement through the yacht. A walk up to the flybridge unveils a seating area perfect for cocktails and taking in sunsets.
There is also another area for sunbathing on the flybridge where you can take in the sights of the islands from the highest vantage point on the yacht.
The Bali open space design is further complimented by the superior outfit of Bella.
No detail has been left unnoticed from the fine linens, pillows and throws to the wine glasses, serving and
flatware that make every day feel luxurious. She has been stocked full with every appliance and kitchen accessory to allow the chef to fully showcase the mastery of their art.
And the water toys abound, allowing guests to fully experience all the Caribbean has to offer, both in and out of the water.
Bella will accommodate 6 charter guests in 2 spacious queen cabins and 1 sprawling owners suite master cabin for those who desire more space. She has solar panels, air conditioning, water maker, ice maker, full-sized refrigerator, a fully customizable menu, Caribbean made eco-friendly and reef safe toiletries, a bar stocked to guest preference, coffee/espresso machine, rendezvous scuba diving, snorkeling gear, underwater scooters, sub wing, wakeboard, stand up paddle board / kayak, towable water tube, 10 ft. floating dock, pool noodles, fishing gear, board and card games, television in the salon, Fusion 3 Bluetooth enabled sound system and Bella giveaways.
Advertised by DMA Yachting, the impressive charter yacht BELLA is a 49 ft sailing catamaran. The most appealing features of BELLA are her well-chosen interiors and interconnection with the sea. BELLA spends the summer and winter season in Antigua. She was constructed by the well-known ship builder Bali Catamarans in 2021. The ingenious yacht layout features 3 large cabins and comfortably accommodates a group of 6 guests.
BELLA is introduced primarily as a sailing catamaran. The the core layout is spread out from the main saloon, which connects to the aft deck. The aft deck features a variety of seating areas and usually it is where you, as a charter guest, spend most of your time. The tastefully decorated cabins are connected by stairs to the main saloon - roomy, comfortable and pleasant. The cabins offer unbeatable views in the morning and are located just below deck. Multiple portholes connect you with the outside world.
The sailboat features 2x57HP Yanmar 13Kw Onan Generator engines and a generator.

Crew Information
Captain: Ryan Demarco
CAPTAIN
Ryan Demarco
Raised in Austin, Ryan grew up camping in the Texas Hill Country, playing soccer and football, and exploring his love for the water with weekends on the lake. After earning a Bachelor’s in Business Administration, he spent his 20s building a career as a financial planner while also becoming a 500-hour certified yoga teacher.
During a solo trip to Costa Rica, Ryan was inspired to pursue his passion for adventure. He traded in his suit and tie for life on the water, joining boats in the Bahamas and Annapolis before heading to South Africa, where he earned his Yachtmaster Offshore license and sailed back across the Southern Atlantic Ocean.
As a captain, Ryan began delivering yachts and running charters along the U.S. East Coast and through the Caribbean. He was then offered a position with a charter company in the Mediterranean, working in Croatia and Greece, where he quickly rose to Lead Skipper.
When not on the water, Ryan enjoys backpacking in the mountains and traveling the world with his fiancée.

CHEF
Nicole Shaaf
Growing up in Southern Germany, Nicole spent countless hours cooking alongside her grandmother and mother, forming cherished memories in the kitchen. Her favorite childhood moments, however, took place in the family garden, where her grandfather instilled in her a deep appreciation for locally sourced, high-quality ingredients.
After earning a degree in Business and Journalism, Nicole moved to Berlin to immerse herself in the entrepreneurial world, gaining valuable experience working for startups and investors. Attending Europe’s largest tech conferences and engaging with countless founders from diverse industries, she sharpened her skills in detail-oriented, fast-paced environments. Berlin’s multicultural atmosphere fueled her culinary curiosity, inspiring her to explore a wide range of cuisines. Amidst the city's vibrant energy, Nicole became known as the go-to host for unforgettable dinner parties, where her love for creating exceptional food experiences truly shone.
In the beginning of 2024, Nicole decided to swap the concrete jungle for clear waters and beautiful beaches. She spent five months sailing across the Mediterranean Sea and working as a private chef. One of her favorite parts of this new chapter is sourcing fresh ingredients at early morning markets and crafting nutritious, seasonal meals that reflect the essence of each region.
For Nicole, being a chef is about far more than crafting delicious dishes. It’s about bringing people together, fostering meaningful connections, and creating lasting memories. She believes the magic of a meal lies in the conversations shared and the moments savored over great food and drinks.

Reviews
Jordache, you are a fine captain and lots of fun, thank you for the painkillers!!
Olga, your food and hospitality is superb. We love you! And we love Bella!
Thank you for taking us to the best spots BVI has to offer. Excellent trip and lots of love and fun!!!
Olga’s food was outstanding. She paid great attention to detail and her dishes were better than any five star restaurant. From her presentation to her flavors, we were truly amazed after each meal. She has a gift for cooking and took special care to create meals that appealed to our group.
They were both very professional, but still friendly and we enjoyed getting to know them during our charter. We appreciated their expertise about the BVIs- the two times we are onshore they managed everything with the restaurants and made excellent recommendations.
We will recommend Bella and her crew in the future.
Loved our eating area with the indoor-outdoor concept. Spent so much time here. Loved that there were different common areas to gather and sit.
The crew was wonderful and really met our needs/interests. Loved that we could totally relax and just have fun, not worry about anything. Slept so well! The food was fantastic.
James was wonderful! Available when we needed him and really meshed well with our group. Very friendly and funny, and really seemed to understand what we were interested in. He hustled every day to find us the best spots to visit/moor!
Olga was LOVELY. So sweet and kind, and really interested in making things from her heart/culture but also tailored to what we liked. The food was delicious and there was always plenty. Presentation was beautiful.
Loved our week together!
Best,
Alex
What an amazing first experience on board with you guys. You made it so easy and fun. You have been so kind and sweet with Eddie and Rosie.
