Selecting The Catamaran Charter Boat

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.

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.

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.
