Overview

Picture a floating resort in the Exumas: a flybridge with 360-degree views, a forward cockpit lounge close to the water, and an aft deck that opens wide to the salon through Bali's up-and-over door. Location 5.8 is a brand-new 2027 Bali 5.8 sailing catamaran, 58 feet of airy indoor-outdoor living with full air-conditioning. Up to 8 guests share one king and three queen cabins, each with its own en-suite bathroom and stall shower, plus individually controlled A/C. When it's time to play, there's an e-foil, a Subwing, sea scooters, paddle boards, a wakeboard, kneeboard, towable tube and a floating dock. Captain Nik Dorward and Chef Lily Davison move over from sister yacht Location 5.4 (now Drift), bringing a loyal following and globally inspired cooking, from savory crepes at breakfast to plated dinners. Guests rave about their warmth, humor and food. Based in Nassau, she cruises the Bahamas year-round. A natural fit for families, friends who love the water, and anyone who travels for a great meal.

Reviews

Nik and Lily are a dynamic duo who go over and beyond for their guest. Having twin 13 year old boys, it’s great having their high energy. We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Sailing Location! This summer marked our third summer in a row sailing with Nik and Lily, and we’ve already booked our fourth trip for next summer—which probably says it all! Nik is an incredible captain—high energy, adventurous, knowledgeable, and always full of fun ideas that make every day feel special. Lily is an amazing chef, and somehow the food gets better every single year! Together, they have an incredible way of creating an experience that feels both effortless and unforgettable. What started as an amazing family vacation has turned into something so much more. Nik and Lily have become dear friends of ours, and that is truly one of the greatest gifts of these trips. They go above and beyond to make every detail special and have helped us create some of our favorite family memories. There is a reason we keep coming back year after year. If you are considering a charter with Sailing Location, book it! The beautiful destinations and incredible boat are only part of the experience—Nik and Lily are what make it truly exceptional. We already can’t wait for next summer!

We traded the money for the memories and what incredible memories we have now made. This journey through the Exumas was nothing short of magical. From swimming with the nurse sharks, feeding iguanas, strolling powdery sandbars, and amazing food; every moment was a dream come true. Captain Nik and Chef Lily- Your hospitality, heart, and humor made this amazing adventure that much more extraordinary. The food, the cocktails, and attention to detail was top tier. We felt the love from the beginning. We will always remember our beach lunches and all our other incredible meals. There are good ships and there are wood ships, the ships that sail the sea, but the best ships are friendships, and may they always be. Thank you for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime for our family. Dibernardo

Still in awe of our unforgettable time in the Exumas aboard Location with Nik and Lily. It was everything I’d hoped for and more- filled with countless “pinch me” moments that I’ll cherish forever! Fro the weather to the incredible food and amazing company, everything was perfect. Already dreaming about the next time we can return and re-life it all over again. Thank you Nik and Lily for going above and beyond in every way. We were so beyond impressed with your work, but what we will cherish most is the bond we’ve formed with you both. Grateful to now call you friends. Jessica

Thank you for the most unforgettable trip aboard Location this week. You both took such great care to make sure we felt spoiled. I hope to come back again and please come visit us in Texas so we can return some of your amazing hospitality. Amanda
