ISLAND SPIRIT 36 Bluewater

Specifications     Layout     Pictures 

These catamarans are fast, strong and light which makes them incredibly manouverable. Not only is the IS 37 Bluewater a great boat for a family vacation as well as ocean crossings but will be a greta racer cruiser. It has state of the art Wireless Electronics with Ipad Navigation. The hulls and decks of all IS-CATAMARANS are vacuum-infused under a negative pressure of -1 atmosphere. Using hi-density DIAB Divinycell pvc closed-cell foam core (www.diabgroup.com), high-quality ISO vinyl ester resins. The Vacuum Infusion Process created a hull & deck that is at least 35% lighter weight and far stiffer than any comparable boat manufactured by traditional single-skin hand-lay or vac-bagging techniques. The structural design of the new Island Spirit 36 has been done by Composites Consulting Group (www.ccg-composites.com). The massive reduction in resin used in this process, together with the compaction of the fibreglass layers & foam core, results in the ultimate high fibre-fraction percentages being achieved – and additionally allows us to remain very competitive whilst using the highest quality resins, cores & laminates. However, perhaps the most important factor resulting from V.I.P is that the technique virtually eliminates any 'voids' or 'cavities' in the structural laminate – preventing any chance of 'Osmosis' in the hull structure.

The first ISLAND SPIRIT 37's will be available for charter in Thailand in 2012. Please contact us about availability in the USA.

The Island Spirit Brand was introduced into the United States and the Caribbean charter market in 1998. It very quickly became a much sought after catamaran mainly because of the revolutionary design which offered both optimal space and superior sailing performance. Over 50 Island Spirits have been built, of which 35 were sold into the United States between 1998 and 2006. They are still extremely popular on the second hand market.

The Island Spirit 37 was the first model launched in 1998 followed by the Island Spirit 400 in 2001. In 2003 Amanzi Marine redesigned and launched the Island Spirit 401. The Island Spirits have been awarded Top Ten Sail Magazine awards in 2001, 2003 and 2005. In 2003 the boat was also a nominee for boat of the year.

The Island Spirit was awarded the CE mark holder in 2005.

The NEW range of Island Spirits are currently built in Thailand by Amanzi Marine using cutting edge technology for a lightweight Resin Infused Composite Structure.

Yacht Management Programs & Tax Issues

Catamaran Guru offers yacht management programs in the charter fleets of Dream Yacht Charters, the biggest privately owned charter company in the world.

You could dramatically reduce the costs of ownership by simply taking advantage of the current tax laws while creating equity in your new yacht by legitimately diverting some of the taxes that you are already paying to your yacht business. You could own your yacht in a fraction of the time and at a fraction of the cost.

Stephen Cockcroft is one of the very few experts on this subject in the country and have helped many boat owners to successfully navigate the path to a successful yacht business, in complete compliance with all tax laws.
