There have been recent media reports that there has been a marked increase in enthusiastic catamaran crew seeking out the thriving yacht chartering industry in Thailand for both financial investment and as a lifestyle option.
In recent years Thailand has become one of the world’s most popular choices for yacht charter holidays and it’s no wonder as there are so many beautiful sights to see and cruise around from Pattaya with their amazing limestone karsts to the Kram Islands and their beautiful white sand beaches and crystal clear waters for incredible snorkeling
It is no wonder that our cruising areas across Thailand have created such a positive and vocal yacht chartering industry and those looking to invest in yacht ownership are realising the benefits of placing their catamaran with a yacht charter company so that they can enjoy the income they receive from their catamaran while not using it themselves.
Often in a yacht charter management deal the operating costs can be offset by the income received, so it is a great solution for the keen sailor who wants the option to own and holiday on his own catamaran here in Thailand or Malaysia but doesn’t have the time or inclination to maintain it year round.
According to Multihull Solutions, a market leader in providing expert advice and support for clients interested in yacht chartering investment, they are “enjoying a surge in new and pre-owned catamarans in Thailand, with many buyers choosing to place their catamarans with regional charter companies as an investment.”
Catamarans are a popular choice for yacht charter holidays as they offer comfortable and spacious living space both inside and on deck. They are also excellently maneuverable with a nice shallow draft which means they have better access to the many beaches and anchorages in this excellent sailing area.
