SailChecker Expert View

Who it suits This is a solid choice for larger groups or families wanting to explore Cape Verde without breaking the bank. With 6 cabins and sleeping for 12, you'll get good value on a per-person basis, and the catamaran's stability makes it comfortable for mixed sailing experience levels.

Standout features Solar panels and lazy jacks are practical touches that reduce hassle, while the dinghy gives you flexibility to explore anchorages properly. The chart plotter and autopilot mean less hand-steering fatigue on longer passages, which matters in Atlantic conditions.

Value for money At 2006 vintage, she's honest about her age, but the catamaran design and cabin count deliver genuine accommodation bang for your euro. The €2,500 deposit is reasonable, though you'll want to confirm final pricing with Alboran Charter directly.

One thing to note The operator has only 2 reviews on file, so track record visibility is limited. Before committing, ask Alboran for recent client references and confirm pre-charter support, important when you're flying 6, 8 hours to Cape Verde and want solid communication if anything needs sorting.

The marina & destination

Based at Sal Harbour, in Palmeira, Cape Verde. Alboran Cachaça (Cabo Verde) is operated by Alboran Charter.

Why this is a great starting point

Sal Harbour in Palmeira gives you immediate access to the Cape Verde archipelago's northern islands, with Boa Vista, Maio, and Santo Antao all within 1-2 days sailing. Week one typically involves exploring the sheltered anchorages around Boa Vista and the tight island passages, where consistent northeast trade winds provide reliable sailing conditions. The marina works well for clients wanting to avoid the Atlantic crossing; you're positioned to cruise the volcanic landscapes and quiet bays of the northern group without committing to long ocean passages.
