SailChecker note

12 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.

Great for groups The Lagoon 39 is ideal if you're chartering with friends or family, 12 berths across 6 cabins means everyone gets their own space without breaking the bank per person. Catamarans also offer the stability and spacious deck area that make longer passages genuinely comfortable.

Solid practical choice Built in 2014, this boat sits in that sweet spot of being modern enough to have decent systems but established enough that the design is proven. The modest €3,000 deposit is refreshingly low, which takes pressure off your booking commitment.

Value depends on season Without seeing the weekly rate, it's hard to judge value directly, but a 6-cabin catamaran at this size typically offers good economics if you're splitting costs across a larger group. Jacky Charter's 5-star rating is encouraging, though that's just one review, so it's worth checking their track record independently.

One heads-up We don't have the base location listed here, which matters quite a bit for your travel logistics from the UK or mainland Europe. Before committing, confirm where "Pulpo" is moored and how straightforward the airport transfer will be, some Caribbean bases are easier to reach than others depending on your home airport.

A starting point, not a script: pick one as a template and we'll tailor the dates, stops, and pace to your crew.

Northern Dalmatia & the Kornati Loop7 days · ~110 nm · 5 stops

Kornati National Park is empty coves, no shore power, true wilderness sailing. The route most people quietly call their best charter ever.

1Sukošan / Zadar
Charter base. Stock up on provisions before you leave, the islands are sparse on supermarkets.
2Žut
Sheltered bay with one restaurant pier. Easy first-night anchorage; bring cash for the moorings.
3Telašćica
Long fjord-like bay inside the national park. Swim to the cliff-top salt lake at sunset.
4Sali (Dugi Otok)
Sleepy fishing village with a working harbour. Konoba Roko for lamb peka, order ahead.
5Sukošan return
Half-day sail back; the wind usually fills from NW by lunchtime.
Central Dalmatia · the Hvar Circuit7 days · ~140 nm · 5 stops

Mixes the lively (Hvar town, Bol beach) with the still untouched (Vis, away from the cruise routes).

1Split
Charter base. Diocletian's Palace is worth a half-day before you leave.
2Brač
Bol's Golden Horn beach is the classic stop. Anchor in Lučice for quiet.
3Hvar
Hvar town is the party. Stari Grad on the north coast is the antidote.
4Vis
The far island, fewer charter boats, blue cave excursions, the freshest seafood on the route.
5Šolta
Quiet, close to Split. Maslinica is the prettiest anchorage on the island.
Istria & Kvarner7 days · ~120 nm · 4 stops

Italian-influenced architecture, the warmest water in Croatia by mid-July, fewer charter boats than further south.

1Pula
Roman amphitheatre at the harbour entrance. Charter base.
2Rovinj
Picture-perfect Venetian old town on a peninsula. Marina is small, book.
3Cres
Sparsely populated; griffon vultures overhead. Anchor in Lubenice cove for the cliff views.
4Krk
The largest Adriatic island. Punat marina is full-service if you need provisions or laundry.
