What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Perfect for groups. The Bellmar sleeps 10 across 6 cabins, making it an excellent choice for families or friends wanting to split costs on a larger charter, you'll struggle to find better value per berth at this spec and price point.
Well-equipped modern cat. This 2024 Astréa 42 ticks all the boxes: solar panels and water maker mean you can anchor longer stretches comfortably, while the air conditioning, generator, and lazy jack make sailing effortless for less experienced crews. The bimini and sprayhood deliver real shade and weather protection in warm-water sailing.
Solid bang for buck. At €5,775 per week, you're looking at under €600 per person for a 10-strong group on a brand-new multihull with the kit to hand. That's genuinely competitive, and Sightsea's perfect 5-star rating (though based on just three reviews) suggests they deliver.
One small note: The base location isn't listed here, so you'll want to confirm where Sightsea operates and factor in your international airport transfer time before booking, logistics matter when you're flying long-haul with a large group.
