Eight guests in a monohull asks a good deal of a single hull, and the yachts that do it well are generally sixteen metres or more. Fitting four cabins, three or four heads and the tankage for eight people into a shape that narrows at both ends is a real design problem, and how it has been solved is the first thing to assess. The Yacht Collection lists sailing monohulls for eight guests.
The good designs carry beam further aft to create two proper aft cabins, use twin rudders so control holds at heel, and give the forward cabins genuine hatches and hull ports rather than treating them as spare berths. Tankage and machinery concentrate amidships to keep the trim honest with eight people and a week of stores aboard.
What the monohull offers in return is the sailing. She heels, points and settles into a groove, the motion is a roll rather than a snap, and heavy weather behaviour is self righting and well understood. Practically, she takes one berth at standard rates and lifts in any yard, which a wide catamaran does not. Verify capacity against eight for seven days, confirm the layout was designed rather than adapted, and survey keel structure, both rudder bearings and rig age.
