The Boat
Your professional skipper is Mark Prince. Mark holds a Yachtmaster Ocean Certificate and is also a qualified Cruising instructor.
Having skippered a number of different yachts over the years, Mark first skippered a catamaran out in the British Virgin Islands and has been converted to sailing catamarans ever since.
“They make such a great platform for sailing. I’ve taken many groups of people out on sailing charters, ranging from Corporate clients to families looking for an alternative summer holiday.”
“On monohulls, if the breeze picks up, the boat heels and everyone is stuck bracing themselves in the cockpit. That’s great for the first hour or so but then the novelty wears off. Only the hardiest crew member ventures downstairs to use the loo or put the kettle on, and I guarantee they are not down there for long!”
“Catamarans don’t heel, so they’re inherently safer, faster and have so much more space. The saloon is at the same level as the cockpit and has panoramic views so there’s no going down below to put the kettle on! Everyone can move about freely”
“I’m sold on Cat’s, and I’m sure you will be too!”
