Oceanis 46 Available in Rio de Janeiro, Angra dos Reis and Paraty
This was our first trip to Rio. We wanted to charter a boat for 3 days. I could not be happier. We had a beautiful centurion 47. Retrofitted in 2021. Captain Marco and skipper Phillip were wonderful. We sailed to Isla Grande which so beautiful and natural. We had nice sailing weather. He BBQed for us twice. The local restaurants were great as well. Wonderful experience!!! Would like to do it again soon. There is a lot to explore on the Brazilian coast. I don’t think people realize how special this coastline is. Or maybe it’s just me ? it should be on more people’s radar.

Charter 33ft "Terra Firme Rio" Cruising Monohull In Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Sergio was a wonderful host and his boat was perfect for a sunset cruise around Guanabara Bay. He was really communicative from the beginning to the end, and gave us all the time we needed to soak in the view and the experience. I would 100% recommend taking a boat trip on Sergio’s boat!

Charter 33ft "Terra Firme Rio" Cruising Monohull In Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Sergio is super cool and competent. His vessel is comfortable and sturdy. Sergio is a great skipper. Recommend him and the without hesitation. I was finally able to see Rio from the sea. Something that I had wanted to do for a long time. Great day trip. I imagine a longer voyage would be awesome aboard the Peterson yacht.

Charter 33ft "Terra Firme Rio" Cruising Monohull In Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Our trip with Sergio was great. Sergio was very responsive to email and provided all of information about the vessel and what we should bring for the day on the water. Sergio is an accomplished sailor with decades of experience. He is easily able to handle the vessel by himself, affording guests a relaxing experience on the water. The boat is equipped with a bathroom and kitchen complete with a stove, grill, refrigerator, and sink. There is also a cooler with ice for keeping water, and other beverages cold. We sailed to a series of islands a few miles offshore from Ipanema and Copacabana. The views of Rio were amazing and at anchor we enjoyed swimming from the boat. Before returning to port, Sergio prepared the food that we brought and we enjoyed a nice lunch. I would definitely recommend a trip with Sergio, and I look forward to another trip myself.

The catamaran was the highlight of our trip to Rio! It was even better than the pictures. The pick up and drop off was very easy. We had 9 people and the boat felt very spacious. There were multiple bathrooms everyone could use and a full kitchen to make food and keep beverages cold. We anchored off a cute beach and had floaties for everyone in our party to use for swimming. The captains were wonderful and accommodating - they spoke some English which was a bonus for our group of Americans!

Amazing experience! We even hired a partner of Norman's to grill and provide a bar with drinks for us, and it was a great addition. It does come with an extra charge but it was worth it! If I return to Brazil, I will definitely be booking with Norman again.
