Necker Belle is a 32-metre (105ft) catamaran with an unbelievable 14-metre beam; that means she’s 14 metres wide. After an extensive makeover in Australia, this majestic catamaran will be available for charter in the Caribbean from February 2010. Necker Belle is one of the largest all-carbon multi hull yachts of its kind and can reach speeds of over 20 knots.

With luxuriously large common areas and four beautifully appointed main cabins, all with en-suites, Necker Belle is perfectly designed for fun and relaxation. So with the cool Caribbean and Mediterranean Seas as your playground, this world class super yacht with its crew of seven and fabulous Virgin service is a perfect choice for fun and relaxation on the high seas.

The Experience
Days aboard Necker Belle will be spent enjoying the clear waters of the Caribbean or Mediterranean, whether cutting up the sea on a pair of water-skis, trying your hand at the high-adrenaline sport of game fishing or marvelling at the vibrant marine life with scuba tanks strapped to your back. Sun lovers can relax suspended over the turquoise waters, catching some rays on the forward beam trampoline. Whether you prefer formal or informal dining, fine cuisine on board Necker Belle is a given. In the evenings, after dinner, you’re invited to the open air cinema – a projector and a big screen will be set up on the aft deck.

Guest Cabins
To guarantee you can keep your eye on the horizon at all times, Necker Belle’s four spacious main cabins with large windows are situated on the main deck above the water line. The Master suite offers stunning views of the ocean through large windows. This room has ample storage space along with a comfy queen size bed, private bathroom with a double basin and shower room. If a lie in is the perfect start to your day, you can snuggle up in bed and switch on your 52 inch LCD TV, watch a DVD or listen to a selection of music through the sound system. Guests can also hook up their iPods for hours of listening pleasure.

Two double VIP guest cabins can be arranged into twins and both have a junior version of the Master Suite’s bathroom with shower room. Other features include a 26 inch LCD TV, DVD and sound system. In the evenings an area of the main salon can be converted to sleep an additional two people, with a privacy screen, separate toilet and shower.

Interiors
Necker Belle’s interior is luxuriously spacious so you’ll feel like you’re in your own private beach house. Unlike mono-hull yachts, where the living area is below deck, Necker Belle’s indoor areas are light and airy and offer undisturbed views as she cruises two metres above the water. The main salon features a huge 52 inch flat screen TV, with a bar and service area close by.

Dining
Fine food is a highlight of any guest’s stay. Dining can be formal or informal, inside or outside, upstairs or on the main deck, themed or traditional – or a mixture of everything. Necker Belle’s wonderful chef prepares food Virgin Limited Edition has become famous for, and it is up to guests whether they want to dine on lobster and caviar or sausage and mash. A fine range of international wines are stored in the vessel’s own temperature controlled cellar, as well as top quality spirits, international beers and excellent house champagne.
