Who It Suits. This Lagoon 40 works well for larger groups or families wanting comfort without complexity; the six cabins easily sleep ten people, and the shallow 1.3-metre draft opens up protected anchorages across the Ionian Islands.
Standout Features. You get a 2022 build with modern systems, a wide 7.5-metre beam that makes the saloon genuinely spacious, and dual helms for easier handling in wind. The catamaran design delivers stability and minimal motion, which matters on longer passages or if anyone in your group gets seasick.
Value For Money. At €2450 per week from Lefkas, this is reasonably priced for a six-cabin cat of this age and condition. The base sits on the Greek mainland close to international flights from Athens (roughly three hours' drive), which suits overseas clients well.
One Honest Note. The Lagoon 40 is a workmanlike charter cruiser rather than a cutting-edge performer; it won't turn heads aesthetically and sailing characteristics are fairly middle-of-the-road compared to purpose-built racing designs. That said, it does the job reliably for relaxed cruising and exploring Greece, so don't let that put you off if comfort and ease matter more to you than thrills.

Based at D-Marin Marina Lefkas, Greece. AF-LAG40 is operated by AF Yachting.
D-Marin Lefkas sits on the west coast of Lefkada, positioning you perfectly for week one exploration of the Ionian Islands; you can reach Meganisi, Scorpios, and Nidri across the channel within an hour, then push south toward Kefalonia and Ithaka. The protected waters and light northerly winds typical in summer make this an ideal launch point for less experienced sailors, while stronger crews can venture further south toward Zakynthos or explore the intricate anchorages around Paxi to the north. The marina itself offers good facilities and a reliable base for provisioning before heading into the Ionian's quieter anchorages and fjord-like inlets.
