What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
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.

Where Charters WentTop Stop: ACI Korčula, 29% of trips
The heat map shows recorded overnight stops from round trips made by charter yachts tracked by AIS from Dubrovnik, Mljet and Ploče during the 2026 season so far. You can use it to see where those yachts spent their nights and compare that with your own yacht charter plans. It is not a navigation guide.
Uvala Pomena appeared on 29% of trips, Luka Polače on 24% and Uvala Vela Saplunara on 20%. Uvala pod Trpezicom was the most common first night at 13% and last night at 12%. The furthest straight-line point from base was 40 to 60 nm on 61% of trips.
Use the recorded stops as a starting point for your charter plans. The full map gives you more to compare, and you can ask us about a route from Dubrovnik, Mljet and Ploče for this type of boat.
