SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for couples The Aquila 44 is an excellent choice if you're two to four people looking for a modern, comfortable power catamaran. The 2026 build means everything is new and reliable, no surprises mid-charter.

Smart design highlights The flybridge is a real draw on this model, giving you a second entertaining space with great views. Three cabins feel spacious for a 44-footer, and the bow thruster makes handling effortless, especially if you're not ex-Navy.

Good value proposition At this size and spec with a newer build year, the pricing sits fairly in the market, you're paying for a well-equipped, hassle-free boat rather than bargain basement rates.

One practical note We don't have the base location listed in your data, so check where Free Charter Srl operates before booking; transfer times from major international airports vary hugely depending on whether you're chartering in the Mediterranean, Adriatic, or elsewhere. That detail matters when you're flying long-haul.

The marina & destination

Based at Cannigione, in Cannigione, Italy. A44 is operated by Free Charter Srl.

Why this is a great starting point

Cannigione lies on the north coast of Sardinia and offers straightforward access to the Maddalena Archipelago, a cluster of granite islands with excellent holding and protected anchorages reachable in 2-3 hours under sail. Week 1 typically takes you through island-hopping around Caprera and Santo Stefano, with consistent northwesterly winds providing reliable sailing. The shallow, clear waters suit both confident sailors and those seeking gentler conditions, while the nearby Costa Smeralda provides an alternative route east if you prefer busier ports and steeper sailing angles.

Frequently asked questions
Can A44 be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter A44 bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.
What sailing licence do I need to charter A44?
Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.
What's included in the charter price?
The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.
What additional costs should I expect at the base?
Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.
How does the security deposit work?
The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.
Can I cancel my charter booking?
Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.
Is the yacht insured?
Yes — every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.
What documents do I need to bring?
You'll need your passport, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.
What payment methods are accepted?
Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.
