Catamaran for Caribbean Yacht Charter
Presenting the creative crew of a popular Virgin Islands yacht charter vessel. They are greener and eco-friendly. They also save their customers money.
Many guests eat a meal or two ashore during a week-long yachting vacation. Therefore, sail catamaran SILVER MOON announced a half board food option.
A typical all-inclusive charter features 3 meals a day. The half board option exists. It includes all breakfasts. It also includes 3 lunches and 4 dinners with beverages, the standard ship’s bar, and snacks. That said, all other meals are taken ashore at the guest’s expense.
Jana Sheeder, President of SailAway and 1-800 Yacht Charters, comments. She explains the benefits of a half board option:
“Part of the attraction of a yachting vacation is the chance to indulge in local customs and foods. Sometimes, fresh food on the yachts goes to waste as the clients tend to eat ashore two or three times a week in the various ports of call. The half board option cuts down on waste, preparation materials, and cleanup,” explains Sheeder.
Clients save money. The overall cost of the boating vacation can be reduced. It can then reflect the fewer meals and food served onboard.
Here’s the price breakdown on S/Y SILVER MOON:
Passengers Half-Board All-Inclusive
2 $ 8,000 $ 8,600
3 8,560 9,200
4 9,115 9,800
5 9,775 10,500
6 10,325 11,100
The sailing yacht SILVER MOON is a 44′ catamaran that launched in 2002. She has 3 guest cabins. Each includes a queen berth and private bathroom. The yacht has wind scoops to limit the need for air conditioning. The crew buys earth-friendly paper products, biodegradable cleaning products, and local organic produce when available. #eco-friendly
Other catamarans available in the Caribbean this winter include the world’s largest catamaran, the 145′ sail yacht HEMISPHERE, the 75′ sail catamaran LADY ALLIAURA, and the 65′ sail catamaran WORLD’S END.

She is a pioneer for sustainable energy technology on water. The German-made 115-foot catamaran is MS TÛRANOR. She is also known as yacht PLANETSOLAR. The yacht arrives in Monaco on May 4th – the first superyacht to circumnavigate the world on solar power alone.
A celebration weekend happens in the Hercule harbor in Monaco. After crossing the finish line, the crew, design team, builders, investors and owners will be participating in an official arrival ceremony with Swiss and Monegasque personalities. Several events support the festivities.
Raphaël Domjan of Switzerland conceived PlanetSolar. MS Tûranor’s build is from Kiel, Germany. Solar energy exclusively powers the boat. It draws power from 537 square meters of photovoltaic panels. PlanetSolar is behind many technological advances, especially in the field of composite manufacturing and storage of solar energy.
