CatPeople of Aruba
The 'CatPeople' is a spectacular supercatamaran. With this supercat, the former named C1000 and Zeeman, the famous dutch seaman and solo circumnavigator Henk de Velde, raced three times around the world. In 1996 he set the world record for solo sailing around the world in 119 days with the C-1000.

More Info: In 2000 the new owners named the red catamaran Catpeople. With this name we want to join more people and offer everybody the experience of their lifetime on this exclusive catamaran. In Holland the catamaran was lightly used for day charter on the North Sea, for the visitors of Aruba it will be a challenge to cruise on this spectacular cat, which until now was only reserved for the lucky few.
The Vessel CatPeople
The CatPeople is a perfectly safe and extremely stable vessel with a length of 72 feet and a beam of 38 feet and a draft of 2 feet. The ship has a carbon fiber mast with kevlar rigging of 86 feet high. With a total sail area of 2226 sq. feet. The maximum speed ever attained was 42 knots. Sailing south of Australia with a wind force 8, the vessel maintained an average speed of 35 knots. The longest distance sailed in a period of 24 hours was 632 miles (solo!). Three times circumnavigated around the world: a Cat with superior qualities!
Of course it is not our intention to break these records but only to make you aware of its capacities which gives our passengers a safe and secure feeling.
If you like fishing and diving too, we have contacts with the best boats with the best captains and crew. Contact us for a ½ day fishing/diving charter on the leeward side of the island or for our package deal sail/dive/fish combo special.

Caribbean Travel Tip When to go December through mid-April is the most popular time to visit the Caribbean, as travelers flee the chilly northern weather for sunny skies, white-sand beaches, and warm temperatures. To get the best rates, visit in the late spring or summer months—or get even better rates by traveling in the fall (September–October).
