Improve your green yacht charter<\/a> credentials and get ready for the summer season by choosing one of Boatbookings’ many catamarans<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With the approaching summer season, Boatbookings discusses why chartering a catamaran<\/a> is better for the health of our oceans and picks out some favourite, more sustainable options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Catamarans continue to become increasingly popular choices for yacht charters. It is no wonder why – a catamaran provides so many benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether it be crewed<\/a> or bareboat<\/a>, power<\/a> or sail<\/a>, you can enjoy their voluminous open-plan living and comfortable accommodation areas, their increased stability, and smoother cruising to that of a monohull.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recent years have seen the multihull charter market<\/a> evolving with its offerings, and most importantly, they highlight a significant move toward a greener<\/a> and low-carbon<\/a> agenda. We take a look at the ways they are better for our oceans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improved efficiency <\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The efficient hull design of a catamaran drastically reduces its resistance through the water, improving fuel efficiency. Boasting lighter hulls, they also have a lower displacement than monohulls. Power catamarans have a lower overall fuel burn and a steadier rise in speed while sailing catamarans can combine this advantage with nature\u2019s wind power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fewer emissions <\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

With overall reduced fuel consumption, there will be fewer emissions into our atmosphere; therefore, a catamaran will boast a lower carbon footprint. The benefit of a sailing catamaran is the overall fuel reduction, lessening emissions even more so than a power catamaran. Our emissions calculator<\/a> can determine the exact footprint of any charter yacht.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reduced impact<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Another characteristic of a catamaran is its shallow draft, resulting in less impact on marine life while enabling more choices for better anchorages. With more out of the water, they have less disruption of the area’s marine ecology and the added benefit of less vibration and, therefore, noise. Their drafts also make them popular for specific cruising itineraries, such as the Bahamas<\/a> and the BVIs<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Renewable opportunities <\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The wider beam of a catamaran provides more space for renewable energy alternatives. Their exterior can be outfitted with solar panels, perfect for soaking up the Caribbean <\/a>and Pacific <\/a>sunshine while also enabling the yacht to operate on less power from the generators and engines. There are also plenty of catamarans that run off electric<\/a> power, reducing the reliance on fossil fuels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose a greener catamaran today <\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Catamarans are part of a fast-growing segment of the charter industry. One that, thanks to innovative technology, is ever-evolving and improving its sustainability credentials. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today there is a vast selection of eco-friendly catamarans that run on wind, solar, batteries and electric motors. As well as these greener technologies, many catamaran builders, such as Sunreef<\/a>, implement a holistic sustainability process, using naturally-sourced materials throughout the build.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boatbookings offers some of the best, greener catamaran options available for charter:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
