Luxury Power Catamaran Charters in Cape Town – The Pride of Dean Cats
While South Africa is not considered the world’s top catamaran charter destination, it undeniably offers some of the most dramatic sailing landscapes and spectacular settings — especially Cape Town.
Tigger 2 Cape Town Charters takes full advantage of these natural selling points by adding luxury catamaran cruises to the mix aboard two separate 50-foot mega power catamarans that symbolize the construction genius of Dean Catamarans, one of Africa’s oldest boat builders.
The company has been in operation for over 14 years and offer Tigger 2, a 53 foot catamaran cruiser that caters up to 45 guests and includes 2 onboard lounges, 2 sundecks and a 42 inch plasma screen for those wishing to escape the ocean glare and catch up on a few world cup soccer games.
If that’s not enough to wet your appetite their second and latest addition,
TIGGER 2 ROYALE is a 55 foot Deancat Jag 56 luxury multihull cruiser which was launched in November 2009.
Tigger 2 Charters refers to her as “..The flagship of the charter industry with her beautifully streamlined exterior and plush white leather interior.”
This sleek beauty has hosted celebrities and appears great for weddings or other special functions. It is a luxury drawcard!
The TIGGER 2 ROYALE offers a main dining area and an upper chill lounge that can be converted into a dining area if required and she can seat 38 guests maximum inside for a plated luncheon or dinner at one sitting.
The company lists all departures are from the T-jetty in front of the Hildebrand Restaurant at the V&A Waterfront.
