Wenceslao and Sylvie, owners of a catamaran currently undergoing refit in Cape Verde, explain their transition from a monohull to a multihull for their liveaboard business.11:16 The couple previously operated the monohull *Dolce Vita*, but they chose the larger catamaran to increase passenger capacity from two to eight, allowing them to host up to three couples for extended "experience of life on board" trips.11:24 They cite the catamaran's spacious deck and four cabins as primary advantages for their business model, which focuses on teaching sailing skills and providing an immersive maritime lifestyle rather than daily charters.14:10 While Sylvie prefers the sailing performance and handling of a monohull, she acknowledges the catamaran's superior comfort and appeal to non-nautical guests.14:56 The pair manages maintenance costs by performing their own repairs and anchoring out instead of paying for marina slips.23:19 They emphasize that sailing is accessible to those without significant wealth, provided owners acquire the technical skills to avoid professional maintenance fees.22:33
