what to expect: St. Lucia to SVG?

Hi all:
My husband and I chartered a Moorings 4200 with skipper (we can't sail) for 6 nights in early December. We've never done this before, so I have some silly questions...
We start in St. Lucia (never been there before) and end in Canouan (we're familiar with SVG). We'd like to get to the Tobago Cays ASAP. How long should the journey take, and what sort of passage can we expect from St. Lucia to SVG (slow going, high winds, etc.) on a catamaran at this time of year?
Also, while we fully hope and expect to learn a lot on this trip by participating in sailing the boat, should we be nervous about having a cat of this size with only one knowledgable sailor aboard?
Thanks in advance for your input.
