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.
