Sailing yacht or catamaran?

Sailing yacht (monohull)
The classic sailing experience. Heels with the wind, great value, cosy cabins. Ideal for couples, friends and keen sailors.

Catamaran
Two hulls, so it stays level. Huge deck, big saloon, private bathrooms. The favourite for families and non-sailors.
Why book with Nautical Nomads
