Charter a Luxury Crewed Catamaran Out Of Belize City – Part II

Following on from Part I of our Belize blogs, and having introduced a sample itinerary and the destination, we give you some ideas of the best yachts to charter in Belize.

Two of our favourite yachts for charter in Belize are both Lagoon 500s. Lagoon catamarans are a part of Beneteau Yachts, and are a fantastic brand of catamaran, offering both luxury and comfort in spacious accommodation. Catamarans are perfect for first time sailors, as they provide stability on the water, and a space that you would often struggle to find in a monohull of the same length.

DORIS is the first of our Lagoon 500s, she is a 2007 model, with 3 cabins accommodating for up to 6 guests. Her crew of 2 is great and for sailing enthusiasts, they would love to let you help sail!

Our second suggestion is the beautiful AMURA, which is also a 2007 Lagoon 500, which accommodates 8 guests in her four well appointed cabins. Her interior is gorgeous and bright, though the use of large windows, which not only allow the sunlight of Belize to shine through into the yacht, but allow you to gaze out onto the crystal blue waters surrounding you.

Try Before You Buy – Charter a Luxury Yacht to see if it's the Right One for You.

Are you considering buying your own luxury yacht? Unsure whether or not you know what is right for you?

Charter the yacht of your dreams before making that decision to buy. With www.boatbookings.com you can charter the exact make and model that you're interested in before taking the leap to purchase. There's so much to consider when you buy a yacht, and you definitely don't want to make a mistake and pick the wrong one. You cannot judge a book by its cover – what you see on paper can be a completely different experience to what it is like on board. You need to experience the real thing, and get out on the water.

On a yacht charter you can experience the level of comfort the yacht provides – is there enough space for you and your friends? Will you get a good night’s sleep below deck? Does she still look as great a few years later? A yacht will always look pristine at a show, but you want to know she’ll stay that way! You can also experiment with the technical details. Push the yacht to her top speed and feel how she performs in different sea conditions. If you’re interested in a sail boat, get a hands-on experience. Find out how she handles in different winds, and how happy you are with sailing and mooring her.

A bit of online research, looking at some pictures and specifications; these may be the first footsteps towards a purchase, but they won’t tell you just how it feels to experience the real thing out at sea. There are so many things to take in to consideration when buying, and chartering will help to decide if it’s the right yacht for you. Whether you want a sexy Sunseeker or astounding Azimut, we have plenty to offer.
