Who This Suits. The Eftychia 40 works well for groups of six to eight seeking a comfortable, modern catamaran without breaking the bank. It's ideal if you value stability and interior space over performance sailing.
Standout Features. This 2022 Lagoon 40 offers a relatively spacious galley, a solid power setup for island hopping, and the reassuring dual-hull stability that makes catamarans forgiving in chop. The bimini top and outdoor speakers suggest the owner has prioritised comfort and socialising on deck, which matters in the Greek islands.
Value For Money. At just over €2,100 per week from a well-established base near Lefkas airport, you're getting a new boat at a fair rate for the Ionian. The €2,900 deposit is reasonable and the spec includes essentials like autopilot and GPS chartplotter; you won't find hidden surprises later.
One Fair Point. Catamarans of this size can feel less engaging to sail than monohulls if you're after an active helm experience. If pure sailing joy matters to you, a smaller, sportier monohull might deliver more, though you'd sacrifice interior comfort and stability.
