On-board
generators provide enough power for total air-conditioning,
massive refrigeration, ice making and of course a substantial
deep freeze. A real bonus is the provision of an onboard
water maker. This machine is able to produce 600 gallons
of excellent drinking water every 24 hours allowing
guests to take showers whenever they like and also provides
for a hot and cold water shower on the swim platform
after water sports. Most boats have to find a marina
dock every two days or so to top up with water which
may in any case be of dubious quality.

By
late October 2001, a second Virgin Venture yacht will
be on station. Virgin Venture Two is being built to the
same design and specification as Virgin Venture One and
together they will offer an absolutely unique rental opportunity.
The two Virgin Venture yachts will be able to take 12
guests in six equal cabins.
No
other motor yacht rental in this price range can match
this. To provide that level of accommodation means moving
to the $10 million mega yachts of over 130 foot in length
which charter out for considerably more than two Virgin
Venture yacht rentals. Also, because of their size and
draft, they are able to access many of the lovely little
anchorages in the islands. Operating in tandem the two
boats will provide a fantastic vacation for 12 people
at a reasonable price.
