Virgin Charter Yachts is a private charter company that has specialized in offering motor yachts and power catamarans for charter in the British Virgin Islands since 1996. Our company only offers 20-25 yachts for charter, and this allows us to provide extensive preventative maintenance to our yachts and they show more like private yachts rather than the typical 'charter boats' seen at the big companies who have 300+ yachts to maintain.
About the Leopard 51PC
Designed by renowned yacht builders Robertson and Caine/Leopard; the 51PC (power catamaran) is the pinnacle of cruising perfection. Cruise with power from twin Yanmar 370hp diesel engines while enjoying easy handling from the well-appointed helm station on the flybridge. When it’s time to unwind, relax in the spacious comfort of this innovative fly bridge, which features an elevated sunbathing platform and large U-shaped seating and table to accommodate all your guests. Enjoy the modern conveniences of a built-in stainless steel electric grill, refrigerator, and wet bar all on the flybridge.
Below you’ll find a contemporary and roomy interior, centered around an open-concept main saloon with a panoramic 360-degree view of the surroundings. The main salon has plenty of table space for entertaining your entire group. The fully outfitted galley is situated aft, and has perfect access to the aft sliding door to provide a perfect indoor-outdoor space for cooking and entertaining. Next to the central dining area is a navigation station and the unique forward salon door which opens onto a large forward cockpit, offering a great spot to lounge as you look out to the horizon.
Below the main deck, the hulls of the 514 house four beautiful full-sized cabins, each with queen beds. All four cabins have their own en-suite baths, each with a separate shower and electric heads, providing a comfortable retreat for all guests.
On the stern sits an electric dinghy davit, which offers a low maintenance and convenient option to tow the dinghy raised out of the water while underderway and provide for easy launching and access to the water when stopped.
Virgin Charter Yachts
Virgin Charter Yachts is a private charter company that has specialized in offering motor yachts and power catamarans for charter in the British Virgin Islands since 1996. Our company offers a personally curated fleet of only ~25 luxury yachts for charter, and this allows us to provide extensive preventative maintenance to our yachts so they show more like private yachts rather than the typical 'charter boats' seen at the big companies that have 300+ yachts to maintain.
The primary benefit to charter yacht ownership is that by offering your yacht for charter, you can generate charter income that in most cases, offsets all the annual costs of ownership. Rather than paying your monthly dockage, insurance, power/water, maintenance etc. out-of-pocket, the revenue you make from charters covers these monthly bills for you. In addition to charter revenue, there are huge financial opportunities for tax benefits and bonus depreciation, that are available when you offer your yacht for charter.
Part of the appeal of yacht ownership with Virgin Charter Yachts is we provide a hassle-free ownership experience. With more than two decades of charter yacht experience, we coordinate all aspects of ownership so the only thing you need to worry about is when you want to come down and enjoy time aboard Ida Cat!! We take care of coordinating everything related to yacht ownership and chartering; insurance, dockage, maintenance, reservations, crew, booking calendars, marketing, parts ordering, polishing schedules etc. It is truly WORRY-FREE yacht ownership! Since we are a boutique company, we intentionally limit our fleet to ~25 yachts, in order to offer the highest quality service to our customers and owners and to keep our yachts impeccably maintained. As an owner, you are able to use your yacht as many weeks a year as you would like - we have no restrictions on owner usage!

Zvonimir heard that my vessel was back on the market and reached out to see what was going on. Nothing wrong with the boat! He put me in touch with Charles and we got her sold. Thanks for all the support and making it happen TMC!
Chuck was amazing throughout the entire process. Not sure how we could have navigated this without him and the Multihull team!
It gets no better than The Multihull Company. I’ve watched their great videos for years. When it was time to sell my catamaran, there were no other brokerages in consideration. THEY ARE THE CATAMARAN MARKET LEADERS!! Captain Will Miller has taken the company to the top level. They had an interested buyer prior to my listing going live. I was under contract the first week. The Multihull Company is an impressive organization.
Was a pleasure working with Andrew Hodgdon as buyers agent for our recent multihull purchase. Very knowledgeable of this space and for sure my first call buying or selling a yacht.
The multihull company has been great to work with. They were very helpful in every stage of our purchase from instill showings to purchase. Karl Reed, Andrew Hodgon and Andrew Holland were great sources of information and helped us find our dream Catamaran. Thank you Multihull!
