Finding The Right Catamaran Charter

By Lisa Davis


You are vacationing to a group of islands known as one of the best sailing destination within the Caribbean Sea. You got excited to travel in a yacht as you go island hopping each day. The amenities available inside the yacht were enjoyed very much by your group. That specific yacht is known to them as the BVI Catamaran charter.

The British Virgin Islands, or Natures Little Secret as the locals calls it, is composed of both large and small islands. Its main islands, Anegada, Jost Van Dyke, Tortola, and Virgin Gorda, are among the most popular island destinations by tourists. There are travel guides that are available at online travel sites like Online Cruising Guides which can readily be downloaded. These will serve as your basis on where to go and what to do in each isle you are visiting.

Of course, travelling is not complete without having a means for transport. The company has yachts offered known as bareboat Catamaran fleets. The word was adapted from the Tamil word that equates to logs tied together.

The hulls are of the same size and are parallel with one another at the sides of the sailing boat. They are connected together by the boat deck. In larger vessels, the rooms are located on top and at the side hulls. Some vessels have trampolines which faces the hulls forward.

Your chosen vessel varies in length and in accommodation. The number of people in your group will depend on the size of the sail boat you are using. One vessel can hold two people while another can hold fourteen. In terms of sizes, a small one has 39 feet in length, medium ranges from 40 feet to 44 feet, and large spans 45 feet or more.

Of course, a boat is not complete if it has no facilities and amenities. A small Cat sailing boat can accommodate eight to ten people. It has three to four double cabins, two comfort rooms, and has no available air conditioning. If there is, the air conditioning is shore side powered.

For the medium Cat, it houses a maximum of twelve people. It has a generator powered air conditioning unlike small Cats. It has four double cabins with one bunk cabin as well. It also has four comfort rooms available in each corner.

If you have a maximum of fourteen people, then it is better to avail the large Cat sail boat. Like the medium sized one, its air conditioning is powered by a generator. It has four double cabins and two bunk cabins. Comfort rooms are composed of five to six which are spaced apart within the boat.

Each of those sizes has a bonus feature included and given. Chart plotter, cellphone, autopilot, VHF, GPS, snorkeling gear, chart and cruising guides, and safety gear are the additional inclusions in small Catamaran sail boats. Meanwhile, underwater lights, ice maker, cockpit fridge, saloon TV, and fusion DVD sound system are inclusions in the medium sized ones. Lastly, GPS with autopilot, wind instrument, transom gas barbeque, and water maker are in the large sized ones.
