What KateBot thinks
KateBot generated · ~200 words
Who it suits Blue Kiss is built for larger groups and families wanting comfort without sacrificing sailing capability. With 12 berths across six cabins, she's perfect if you're chartering with extended family or friends who value space and modern amenities over boutique-style intimacy.
Standout features As a 2024 Excess 14, this catamaran delivers the breed's hallmark stability and shallow draft, brilliant for exploring varied anchorages. The gen-set, air conditioning, full galley fridge, and cockpit speakers signal genuine cruising comfort rather than bare-bones sailing.
Value consideration The €3,000 deposit is reasonable for a six-cabin vessel this size. Without seeing the weekly rate, it's hard to judge overall value, but Euromarine's 5-star rating (albeit just one review) suggests professional operation and maintenance.
One honest caveat The operator has minimal review history, just one rating, so there's limited independent feedback on real-world service, turnover condition, or how they handle issues. If you book, ask Euromarine for recent client references and clarify their support during your charter week.

Northern Dalmatia & the Kornati Loop
