What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Perfect for families The Astréa 42 is an excellent choice for groups of up to 8 wanting stable, comfortable cruising, catamarans offer that wide, level platform that makes families and less-experienced sailors feel confident. Four separate cabins mean everyone gets their own space, which matters on a week-long charter.
Smart conveniences included Electric winches take the hard graft out of sail handling, and the onboard inverter means you can charge devices easily. The electric toilet and cockpit cushions show this boat is set up for genuine comfort rather than roughing it, you're looking at relaxed cruising, not racing.
Solid value proposition At €3,000 deposit with a 5-star operator rating (albeit based on a small sample), Ancyra Sailing appears reliable and attentive. For a 2018 cat of this size with four cabins, the pricing is competitive for what you're getting in terms of condition and equipment.
One minor note The charter base location isn't listed here, so you'll want to confirm where Ancyra operates, proximity to a major international airport matters when you're flying in from abroad. Once you know the base, you can factor in transfer times and onward logistics to your holiday plans.
