Looking For A Suitable Catamaran Charter Vessel

By Lisa Davis


You and your group of friends had planned a vacation tour to that wonderful and amazing Caribbean island you have been hearing about. Your means of transport for your island hopping was a yacht. You enjoyed the complete amenities that marine vessel have. What you rode before was a BVI Catamaran charter.

Nicknamed as Natures Little Secret, these are composed of islands that range from small to large. British Virgin Islands has four main islands that are popular to tourists. These are Anegada, Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke, and Tortola. You can search for available travel guides online at travel websites such as Online Cruising Guides. What you downloaded will be the basis for the places you want to visit.

Traveling would be most convenient if you avail a sea transport. The company has available yachts called the bareboat Catamaran fleets. Shortened to Cat, this is derived from the Tamil word. Logs tied together is what it means in its native tongue.

This type of fleet is a watercraft that has two parallel hulls in equal lengths. The hulls are connected to the boat deck. For larger vessels, cabins are found on the deck and in the hulls. Some of them have a trampoline for a deck which makes the hulls go forward.

Varying lengths, accommodation, and sizes of sail boats are offered by the company. The size depends upon the number of participants in your group. It holds up to fourteen people in a vessel. The smallest is only at 39 feet long while the largest spans to more than 45 feet long. Medium sized sail boats is between 40 to 44 feet.

Naturally, amenities and facilities have to be present for a boat to be habitable. If your group does not exceed ten people, then you can choose a small Cat. Rooms available are four double cabins with two comfort rooms. Unfortunately, there is no air conditioning available for most of them. The rare few only have shore side air conditioning.

You can stay in a medium Cat if you have more than ten but do not exceed twelve people. A generator is installed in order to power the air conditioning system. It comprises of four double cabins, one bunk cabin, and four comfort rooms placed at each corner.

A large Cat can accommodate fourteen people in its full capacity. Your group can enjoy the air conditioning powered by generator in every corner inside the boat. You all fit in the four double cabins, as well as two bunk cabins. There are up to six comfort rooms inside which are spread apart inside.

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.
