Catamarans for 8 or more guests are already getting few and far between for New Years so don't delay. Six-person yachts currently have better availability for the winter holiday weeks, but again, don't wait too long. Start planning now while you have the best selection.
Rates mentioned below are for the weeks of Christmas and New Years and have the yacht's holiday premium, if any, added in. Most yachts have a 10% surcharge on their normal rates, while others will have a flat rate for the entire yacht.
Christmas charters typically end on or before December 27th (possibly the 28th) and a New Years charter may begin on December 27th at the earliest. If you want to include both Christmas and New Years, you may if it is a minimum of a 10-night charter. Inquire for your dates as some yachts are more flexible than others.
Here's a selection of available multihulls as of March 9, 2013...
