CATAMARAN RENTAL IBIZA

When thinking of Catamaran Hire in Ibiza, it is important to understand the advantages of this type of sailing boat over a mono-hull boat. The main advantage is that they have more space and can usually sleep more people. They are more spacious than the average sailboat and are ideal for larger groups and families with children. Their two parallel hulls, make catamarans more stable on the water, therefore they tend to a better choice for people who are prone to motion sickness. The parallel hulls are attached with a large deck, which allows for a more spacious living area below board. The cabins are usually situated within the hulls, often with their own bathroom. This arrangement tends to be more private, especially if they are situated at each end of the two hulls. Some catamarans feature an ‘owners’ cabin’ which takes up the whole length of one of the hulls. On deck there is a lot more space for lounging and sunbathing as the hulls are bridged by a giant ‘trampoline’.

Catamarans tend to be more modern in design and have more eco-friendly credentials than motorboats as they use significantly less fuel, especially if the sails are being used, which significantly reduces the costs of chartering a catamaran. Catamarans generally have a shallower draft allowing you to anchor closer to shore, and because of this they then to be much faster than a monohull boat.

Most Catamaran Rental in Ibiza tends to include a skipper. You can also choose to add a hostess who can make meals and serve drinks and snacks and generally look after you.
