Sailing charter vacation on a monohull yacht in the BVI
Why you should choose to sail a monohull?
Many sailing purists will swear that monohulls are the only true sailing yachts. If you are looking to charter a yacht in the BVI, why not try a monohull. Here are some reasons why…
Maneuverability
Monohulls are known for their maneuverability as you are dealing with just one hull. They can make sharp turns and navigate easily into tight dock spaces. And they can tack quickly and are quick to respond to the helm. Equipped with bow thrusters our 50’ monohulls will have you docking like a pro even on the tightest of dock spaces on your sailing vacation in the British Virgin Islands.
Pictured below is our Beneteau 54, a handsome and sleek craft. The helms are equipped with comfortable seats. All running rigging is led below the deck to winch stations within arm’s length of the wheels that provide ready access to sail trim; this is a boat laid out well for shorthanded maneuvering.
Sailing performance
A single hull allows monohulls to slice through the water effortlessly. I can hear you say, “a monohull does not sail flat”. Monohulls are designed to work with the wind and waves to give the sailors the best performance. This means no slapping. Monohulls are perfect for island hopping in the British Virgin Islands. They really come into their own in deep water when sailing downwind from Anegada, where you can let the main and boom all the way out, for a smooth run to Jost Van Dyke.
Layout
Monohulls offer an open-concept saloon with a formal dinette and lounge area. The galley area has enough space for one crew member to prep, another to cook, and the third to wash-up! The cabins offer ample sleeping room for two and impressive amount of stowage space and plenty of natural light coming in from the hatches overhead and hull windows on either side of these sailing yachts.
Value for money
A 4 cabin 4 head monohull come with A/C and Generator offer unbeatable value over a catamaran of equal sleeping capacity. Conch Charters offers the best deals on keels on over 50’ monohull charter yachts in the British Virgin Islands.
