Chartering a Sailing Catamaran

Article Category: Recreation

Author Name: Larry Earl, Good Medicine

Catamaran Sailing is one of those unique sports, like none other. Sailing enthusiasts range from those who like to get out for a relaxing, gentle sail in a calm blue sea with light to moderate winds, listening to the water lap against the hull and the rustle of the sails, to the action packed adventure of racing in all elements, with the thrill of heavier wind gusts surging you past your opponents Sailing is the perfect blend of adventure, excitement, relaxation and skill. With only the wind as your engine, you become both master of and slave to the elements.

Over the years, sailing catamarans have become increasingly popular charter yachts, especially for a sailing vacation in the Caribbean. The layout of a catamaran is better suited than a mono-hull for larger families or groups of friends. Sailing flat, greater stability, and more space is preferable for groups of all types.

"Kattumaram" is the original Tamil word for catamaran, which translates to "logs joined together side by side". This type of boat was first used as a fishing vessel in this southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu, and even participated in a crude form of racing on rivers. Sailing catamarans have two hulls, connected by wide deck spaces, forward trampoline areas, and ample cockpits. This is the reason for the wide space that a catamaran provides. Large sail plans are another distinguishing feature of catamarans. This gives them more wind momentum and hence, higher speeds. However this is also a disadvantage when making turns.

In the Caribbean, sailing catamarans seem to be ever more popular at the best sailing destinations. Even many mono-hull "purists" have come to appreciate some of the advantages of sailing on a large cat. As catamarans have more space, they can have some rooms and cabins, thus offering privacy to people on board.

Several options for chartering a catamaran are available. For the experienced sailor, a bare-boat charter may be appropriate, being responsible for sailing, provisioning, and all other expenses of the charter vacation. A test sail is often conducted by the charter company for a new charter guest to determine the ability to take the cat out on your own. Crewed catamarans are also available, with a local skipper on board. A fully crewed sailing catamaran charter is an all inclusive vacation experience where all of your needs are catered to, and you are still able to sail or lend a hand as much as you like. Some captains are also sailing instructors to really help improve your sailing skills. The mate/chef will amaze you with the caliber of meals that can be prepared in a relatively small galley!. This is especially done when catamarans are hired for occasions like birthdays, anniversaries or weddings.

A luxury saling catamaran charter can be surprising affordable, compared with other luxury vacations, and depending on the level of service, from bare-boat to fully crewed. A qualified charter broker can provide several options suitable for your sailing charter vacation, and they will take the time to know about your party and your particular needs, matching you with an appropriate crew and yacht.
