About this yacht

SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups This 2025 Dufour 44 sleeps up to 10 across four cabins, making it ideal for families or friends chartering together without breaking the bank per person. The modern build year means everything feels fresh and reliable.

Well-equipped cruiser She's got the essentials sorted: bow thruster for tight anchorages, autopilot for longer passages, lazy bag and jack system to keep sail handling manageable, plus a bimini and sprayhood for comfort in variable weather. The chart plotter in the cockpit and decent galley setup (fridge, inverter) make extended cruising genuinely pleasant.

Solid value proposition At this size and age, the €400 deposit is straightforward, and you're getting a boat with no obvious corners cut, lazy systems and modern electronics don't always come standard at this price point. For groups splitting costs, this represents genuinely competitive value.

One realistic note The Dufour 44 is a popular charter workhorse, which means availability can be tight during peak summer, book early if you're eyeing school holidays or July/August. Also, confirm the charter base location with Lascatutto, as that'll determine your flight logistics and whether you're looking at a quick hop from a major European hub or something requiring more travel.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina di Procida, in Procida, Italy. Diomede is operated by Lascatutto.

Via Roma 1

Why this is a great starting point

Marina di Procida sits on the northern coast of the island and offers straightforward access to the Bay of Naples cruising grounds; week one typically covers the Phlegraean Islands (Vivara, Procida's neighbour) and runs south to Ischia or Capri, all within 15-25 nautical miles. The marina works well for crews wanting gentle starts because the Tyrrhenian winds funnel predictably through the bay, and you can reach sheltered anchorages and small fishing villages without long offshore passages. From here you can also push further south towards the Amalfi Coast if conditions allow, giving flexibility for different ability levels.

Frequently asked questions
Can Diomede be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Diomede 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 Diomede?
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.
