ABOUT JULIA

On anchor in Njao Gap – Pemba Island

Julia is a 50 foot (16.5m) Sailing Catamaran of the Admiral series designed by Lavranos. To begin with, she was constructed in South Africa and launched in 1997. Furthermore, she has got 4 double cabins with shower/WC en suite and 2 separate staff berths. Equipped for blue water cruising, this yacht is fitted with all the necessary safety and navigation equipment. An 11,5 KVA Yanmar Diesel generator produces all the electricity you will need at both 220V and 380V. Additionally, 2 Volvopenta 30hp Diesel engines with saildrives power the vessel at an average speed of 6 to 7 knots (depending on current) when not using the sails. Incidentally, under sail and good wind conditions this yacht easily reaches speeds of 10 knots or more.

The cockpit is located at the rear of the vessel where there is a spacious outside seating area. Most of our guests spend their time here whilst sailing underway. There is a large amount of flat deck space on the foredeck as well as large trampolines up front where you can enjoy a leisurely sunbathe and some R&R.
