About this yacht
SailChecker Expert View
Ideal for larger groups Nakupenda suits families or friends wanting serious space, six cabins and 11 berths mean you can genuinely spread out without feeling cramped. The 2019 Dufour 56 is a proven, comfortable cruiser built for relaxed sailing rather than racing.
Smart comfort features Electric winches and hydraulic gangway take the hard work out of sailing and boarding, while the teak deck, cockpit cushions, and barbecue make time on deck genuinely enjoyable. Chart plotter and electric toilets are solid modern conveniences for a boat of this size.
Mixed value signal The €4,500 deposit is reasonable for a 17-meter yacht, but the operator's 3.3/5 rating gives pause, that's notably below typical high-performing charter bases. Before booking, dig into those 19 reviews to see whether issues were maintenance-related, communication gaps, or one-off problems you can live with.
Watch the logistics You'll need to fly into Sardinia and arrange airport transfers to wherever the base actually is (it's not listed here), confirm that detail and transfer time before committing, especially for an 11-person group coordinating across time zones.

The marina & destination
Based at Punta Nuraghe, in Porto Rotondo, Italy. Nakupenda is operated by Yachting in Sardinia.
Via G. Bonanno
Punta Nuraghe in Porto Rotondo sits on the northeast coast of Sardinia, placing you within easy reach of the Maddalena archipelago and the island-studded waters north toward Corsica. Week one typically takes you through sheltered granite-bound anchorages, with the Strait of Bonifacio offering strong northwesterlies that suit confident sailors; lighter winds and shorter hops suit those wanting gentler conditions in the first week. The marina itself provides good provisioning and repair facilities for boats heading into these granite-island cruising grounds.
