Catamaran Dante
Where Luxury meets adventure!
Bali yachts are so unique and designed to be the perfect charter yacht. As a 2023 build, Dante is at the top of the list for a dream charter yacht in the Virgin Islands. Ideal for families with a couple small kids or a few couples to share in the luxuries of this 54′ yacht.
With Bali’s signature cockpit enclosure option, guests love this yacht for the open-air style and ability to comfortably enjoy the outdoors and views rain or shine! The lounge areas on the flybridge and foredeck are the “hot spots” for sun bathing or taking in the salty spray and Caribbean breeze!

Meet the Crew
Captain Brad Needham
A North Carolina native, Brad grew up sailing with his father in the Pamlico Sound, mastering the family’s 12’ O’Day Widgeon by age ten and later teaching sailing through high school and college. He earned a degree in mechanical engineering from N.C. State University, giving him both technical expertise and the ability to troubleshoot vessel systems with ease.
Brad’s career has spanned hospitality, engineering, and maritime work—from installing border security systems in Turkmenistan to guiding charter fishing trips in Alaska. With over 40,000 nautical miles logged, including deliveries along the Inside Passage, the Atlantic coast, and throughout the Caribbean, Brad is an accomplished captain who loves sharing his passion for the sea and creating memorable experiences for guests.
Chef/Mate Zoe Gahan
Raised in Minnesota’s “Land of 10,000 Lakes,” Zoe has been drawn to the water since childhood, spending summers fishing, canoeing, and enjoying water sports. Her lifelong passion for food began with her very first bite of homemade focaccia, and her fine arts background brings creativity and beauty to every dish she serves.
After years in her family’s newspaper business, Zoe traded publishing for adventure—driving to Alaska sight unseen. From her first day on a charter fishing boat, she knew she’d found her calling. Since then, she’s worked on vessels from 28’ to 70’, served as Maintenance Director and Captain, guided sport fishing trips, raced yachts, and completed deliveries throughout the Caribbean and U.S.
Now holding a 100-ton Near Coastal Master License with STCW, Sail, and Assistance Towing endorsements, Zoe blends her love of the sea with her talent in the galley, creating a safe, welcoming, and joy-filled experience for every guest aboard.
Your Crew
Brad and Zoe met in Alaska almost 9 years ago (for a funny story, ask how!) and they've been working on charter vessels, both independently and as a team since then. They are happiest when on the water, whether it’s fishing or sharing good food and laughter with new and old friends alike. Together, Brad and Zoe make an exceptional team—combining his seasoned seamanship and engineering expertise with her artistic culinary flair and warm hospitality. Whether he’s navigating the perfect course or troubleshooting systems at sea, and she’s crafting visually stunning, flavor-forward dishes, their shared love for the water and genuine delight in creating memorable experiences ensure every charter is seamless, safe, and supremely satisfying. Together, they look forward to welcoming you aboard and turning each voyage into a celebration of adventure, friendship, and outstanding service.
